Starts were an
1.7 million total housing starts in
1978 with "good markets in the
first half of the year with
perhaps some decline in the last
half."
The company's total lumber
shipments from mills in Shelton,
California and Canada were "a

the equivalent of 42 rail cars
each workday. That ranks
Simpson 15th among all North
American lumber manufacturers.
Simpson's two Shelton sawmills
shipped 180 million board feet
of lumber.
Oswald said that although
markets are strong, controlling
costs is essential. He said, for
example, that Simpson's payroll
costs per hour have climbed 71
tractors cost 85 percent more
than in 1972.
Highlights of the year in the
Shelton Working Circle included:
- The first helicopter logging
in the Shelton Working Circle.
(Costs were more than double
conventional logging, making its
use very limited.)
- Investment of $1.75
million in lumber manufacturing
facilities.
- Construction of steam vats
for plywood, which increase the
amount and quality of veneer
obtained from logs.
- Major improvements at
McCleary, including expansion
and asphalting of the lumber
storage area and changes to the

reasonably may be expected to
accrue from the proposal must

will be considered; among those
are conservation, economics,

concerns, historic values, fish and

additional information
By DIMITR! TODD, Crime Prevention Officer
Mason County Sheriff's Office
It is gratifying to the law-enforcement agencies that so many of
the citizens in Mason County have taken the time and effort to find
out more about the Neighborhood Watch Program and Operation
Identification. Within the county several areas have developed a
neighborhood program which has reduced home burglaries and in
some instances have been active in providing the information needed
to apprehend and convict burglars.
The action of the trained citizen is highly desirable and, as in the
cases of fire prevention, disease prevention, preventive maintenance of
equipment, crime prevention is a tool by which you can safeguard
your community.
Recent training of people in CPR and EMT has shown the success
of those programs. The training of crime prevention volunteers by the
Mason County sheriff's department is beginning to show results,
which is a step towards reducing crime within the county. Unlike so
many preventive programs, crime prevention takes time and effort
and requires constant vigil by all concerned. The crime prevention
volunteers realize the importance of their work and, when you are
approached by them, please take time to hear what they have to say.
They have nothing to sell but give only a few proven ideas on how to
improve your security and that of your family.
The sheriff's department and the Shelton police department are
interested in reducing crime of all types and, if you are interested in
assisting,, contact them today and learn what you and your neighbors
can do to help.
