MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 26. 1962 New Official of Plywood Group Reviews Plans Tacoma New plans to strengthen the plywood in dustry's marketing position in the competition with non wood building materials are being laid out by the Douylas Fir Plywood association as the result of a series of introduct ory meetings for James R. Turnbull, DEPA's new execu tive vice president. Turnbull, who assumed his duties Oct. 29, has just com pleted meetings with about 400 industry executives in 10 towns stretching from Everett, Wash., to San Francisco. He met with lumber officials in Medford Nov. 2. These infor mal meetings were aimed at helping him learn more about the specifics of the industry and also served as a forum for his suggestions on marketing improvements. DEPA manages a S7.3 mil lion annual budget subscribed by about 130 members mills and serves as the research, promotion and quality control arm for the Industry. Turnbull urged the industry to pay more attention to what the customer wants to buy and less attention to what it is convenient to produce. "Our industry has tended to decide what it wants to make and then gone looking for a buyer. In the future, we intend to go to the marketplace to find out what is needed and then develop products to fill the need. "A buyer will take a pro duct off your hands if you make it cheap enough for him, but he'll pay more for some thing he really needs". Turnbull said the industry, already a $500 million factor in the annual economy of five western states, can continue to grow at its present rate only if it concentrates more on mar keting and on research and de velopment. 4-HNews Snappy Cooks The first meeting of the Snappy Cooks 4-H club was held recently at the home of the leader, Mrs. Florey.

In many cases, you will be voting to express your approval or dis approval. A budget is the translation of the quality and curriculum of a school in terms of money. The preparation of a budget involves the entire school staff. It represents buildings, salaries, equipment, etc. A properly prepared budget is developed from the needs of professional and non-professional employees. The superin tendent of schools, after ex tensive discussion and evalua tion, compiles a proposed budsct which he presents to the board of education. Board members examine the recom mendations in order to control the total cost, maintain a bal anced program, and consider the effect on their educational philosophy. Special citizens' advisory committees arc often appointed. Corrections are made. Public meetings are us ually held to explain the budsct. After final changes, the budget is presented to the voters for approval. Reflectt Quality The school budget is an Im portant responsibility for ev ery member of the communi ty. It retlects the quality of the educational program. The cost of the program should be as reasonable as possible with out sacrificing quality. Much j is said about false economy. This implies low cost pur chases of interior quality which may turn out to be more expensive over the long- 1 cr period. Il might also imply savings which limit the pur ! poses of the program. I How can the local citizens make proper judgments con 1 cerning the school budget? ; They can learn a great deal by - attending meetings designed i to explain the thinking behind the inclusion of specific items. They can attend board of edu cation meetings and become 1 aware of the aims and needs 1 of the schools. They should exprris thrir opinions during j thei-c meetings. They should , firl lice to a?k questions Mr. Miller was born Jan. 26, 1893. in Buffalo. N.Y. He was married June 10, 1916, in Buf falo, to Ida Brenner, who sur vives.

The fact that a vote takes place means that a choice ex ists. Therefore, the community should express its opinions. Criticisms with constructive suggestions are most valuable during the planning stage. A budget which is voted down may have a destructive effect on a school system. Such a result might be avoided by having a well informed com munity which participates in the preparation of the budget. Naturally, each citizen has the right and duty to vote. Question: As an older mem ber of my community, I have no children attending the pub lic schools. 1 cannot under stand my responsibility for supporting the cost of these schools. Can you clarify my thinking on this matter? Answer: Education is every body's responsibility. Each citizen receives direct and in direct benefits. As a student you receive benefits in terms of your own growth and de velopment. As a citizen you are benefited by the broad growth and development of society. The security of our nation is dependent upon our educational system. COMING IN CONCERT SATURDAY, DEC. 8 MEDFORD ARMORY 8:30 P.M. OAC OF SOC.
