West, has received some prints of the famous flag raising by the Marine Corps on Mount Suribachl during the Iwo Jima amphibious operation of World War II. The Marine Corps national mem orial statue of the Hag raising is being erected on a seven and one half acre tract of ground bordering the Arlington National Cemetery overlooking Washington, D.C. The statue, weighing over one hundred tons, is the largest bronze casting ever attempted. It is 78 feet high including the base of Swedish black granite. The Marines in the statue are 23 feet high and one of the flag raisers is carrying a rifle 16 feet long. Atop the 20 foot flag pole will be flying the American Flag. The monument will cost approxi mately $750,000 which Is being raised solely through the contribu tions of Marines, former Marines and their friends. There will be no cost to the government for the monument. The monument is sla ted for unveiling on November 10, the 179th Anniversary of the Ma rine Corps, as a permanent mem orial to Marines.

Engineering plays an important part in making this possible by improving manufacturing efficiency, reducing waste and assuring uniform quality. Competition for customers is increasing in all businesses as our economy becomes more stable. In the building field, for example, many new materials now compete with lumber and plywood. If we are to hold our share of the market, we must continue to develop new and better products and improve manufacturing methods to meet this com petition. In addition, we must maintain our high standards of quality and service to our customers. Our industry's ability lo compete successfully in the building market is important to you because more than half of tin's region's economy is based upon forest products. Success in marketing our products means continuous operation of our plants assuring steady payrolls, prosperous communities and a stable tax base to help support schools and government. Farmers build with wood for durability and economy Lumber offers many natural advantages for all types of farm buildings. It is strong, yet light in weight. IU excellent insulating qualities provide warmth without added coat. Wood is versatile . . . easily adapted to modern farm architectural designs which feature attractive, functional buildings with largo post-free areas. Equally important, wood structures are economical in both first cost and maintenance. Almost everyone knows how to build and repair with lumber. Regardless of wood's many natural advantages, our industry must continue to tell the merits of wood. Remember, wood must compete with them all... concrete, steel, brick, aluminum, glass, plastics and compositions.
