Building Permits Increase Greatly During Past Year Building permits for 1946 show a considerable increase oer those in 1945, which is natural as ma- terials become easier to obtain. A total of 132 permits were issued last year as compared to 48 in 1945. The estimated cost of con- struction last year totals $475,- 905.00 compared to the estimated cost of $309,600 in 1945. There were 20 permits for commercial building, estimated at $175,400; 53 permits for residences, esti- mated at $255,700 and 58 permits for remodeling and repairing es. timated as $43,805. Some of the larger permits in- clude  garage and sales rooms, Roy Kimbel, 709 1st St., $30,000; Standard Oil Company, city dock, moving tanks and plant building, $25,000; A. C. Linkletter, 4th and Pine, office building, $20,000; H. Bacon. Mt. View residence, $15,- 000; Dr. H. Deegan, 1st and Knee- land Apts., $15,000; Richfield Oil Company, 1st and Railroad, gar- age, $14,000; G. M. Andrews, 2nd and Franldin store building, $12,- 000; John Bernert, East Pine, garage, $12,000; and Hal Grant, garage at Olympia Highway South, $12,000. The Simpson Fibreboard Plaint was constructed the past year, but at the time the permit was issued it was not in the city limits, so it does not figure in the build- ing permit totals.

There is only one major agency l of the Federal Government nr,v which operates a (livision of de- famation. The government's h()u:. ing agencies are at last decent and honest in their political pro- grams and publicity practices, as they relato to the buitdmg indus- try. But over the radio, in the newsapers, through illOt [,3ll pic- tures, there is yet one agency that still hammers and yammers away at the forest industries ts 'devas- taccrs" and "exploite,'s.' This is done by means of lmndr,_,d of thousands of dollars of public money, all appropri':tcd by the C',ngress. I leave qe agency tameles simply because it has dtvis.-ions of [ublie service which really serve the people through an army o: able, devoted and technically trained men who are paid none too well. These men are not re- sponsible for the Pravda Boys on the Potomac who keep the one surviving Wallace-Tugvell ma- chine of defamation in operation, on working orders that come from powerful pressure groups outside the government. A simple example of the work i a clever cartoon sent recently in mat form to newspapers all over the nation. It shows a back- ground of hills dotted with stumps. In front is a, beaver and a baby tree. The beaver is telling the lone little tree it can newer hope to grow up becatts, of the "destructive cutting practices" of lumbermen. That cartoon example is just one flyspeck in a smear that is kept black and spreading through the power to misuse pub- lic money, Some Real Devastation . , . While the Pravda Boys on the Potomac were concocting their defamatory cartoons a working service division of the agency was publishing a scientific s t u d y which showed how well baby trees can spring up and grow even where fire has caused the worst devastation the forest can suffer.- The ground of the study was that of the great Nestucca burn between Otis and Keskowin. Ore. Over a wide area a fire raged in the early 1850's, leaving black snags jutting from blankets of ashes. Most of the burn was soon re- seeded from neighboring forests. Fire did not strike the area again, from that day to this• Now a flourishing forest of hemlock and spruce, 94 years of age, greens out practicall: all signs of the "devastating" fire of long ago. Measurements have been maple of sample plots in the forest. They show on the average a net annnal growth' per acre of 247 cubic feet of 1.454 board feet• One plot, spruce for the most part, has an average gross scale Banquet " (Continued from page 1) Grays Harbor county, gave one of the most inspiring messages of the evening in saying he saw "the spirit of Sol Simpson nd Mark E. Reed handed down to this organs zation, for no one thinks ahead 100 years without thinking of someone other than themselves. I see in the town of McCleary a spirit in which the working man considers his bosses his friends, and vice versa, all working togeth- er as one. McCleary's spirit may easily set an example for the rest of this nation to follow." Mark Reed History Recalled George Adams, Democratic leg- islator from the 24th legislative district, also called upon for ex- temporaneous comment, recalled Mark E. Reed's entry into state politics and recited some of his political history. "It was Mrs. Reed's idea and Mr. Reed's efforts which brought the first industrial insurance act to benefit the work- ing man of Washlngton," he re- i called. William G. Reed, chairman of f the board of dirdctors of £he Simp- I son Logging Company, extended or, behalf of the directors and stock- holders their thanks to all who made realization of the sustained yield contract possible, and George Drake', cbmpany vice-president  in' charge of "its logging operation, spoke briefly on the genesis of the sustained yield idea• Robert Seen ey, company vice - president in. charge of sales, commented that "behind the efforts 'of our sales staff must stand the quality which you men in the mills put into your Wolk - • ' Trading Center Planned ] C. Henry' Bacon:, Jr.; general manager of the Lumbermen's Mer- cantile, announced  plans for the construction of a 110x250 foot mod- ern trading center in McCleary by Ingram 8* Reed, real estate in- vestment firm, in WhiCh space will be provided according to specifica- tions of any tenant desiring it. He added that  the Lumbermen's Mer- cantile will be the first tenant to contract for space in the new structure. Others who spoke during the 1 program included Don H. Clark, (f 168,291 board feet pc]' acre. This means that the average an- mml growth (gross) pet' year for tit(, 94 years that the new foreqt has been coming up on the burn is 1,790 board feet. That is on the one specific plot, of course. An- other plot shows little net growth in the past 11 years, due to heavy mortality by ovorcrowding, blow- downs and other causes. So the average annual growth of the forest is reduced ,o 1.454 board feet• This is nearly three times the conservative growth figure used by industrial forest- ors 'in computing estinmtes for growth on Douglas fir cutovers, I although the latter now keep good seed sources under state law and are otherwise managed for in- tensive production of new tree crops. Snafu Forestry . . , As 10ng as the Pravda Boys are given a free hand with public money in Vashington, D.C., their defamation of the character of the forest industries will continue and the publication of honest inform- alton on,lhe good side, the bright side, the constructive side of tim- ber gT0wing" in the U.S.A., will remain as neglected government business. The present policy is not to only to flood qm country with propaganda on "devastation" and "destructive cutting," but to give never a hint to the public on such facts as that of a 50 per cent increase in net anmml growth in the Douglas fir region between 1933 and 1946. That is a policy of snafu for. estry. Real forestry hides out in the woods, Maintenance ...... : ......... 29 19 Research Girls ............ 27 21 , ,..
