Committee on Lignin and Cellu-
lose Research, which is carrying
on an extensive project relative
to the utilization and disposal of
pulp and paper mill wastes, met
together with the Technical Com-
mittee of the Washington mills
and the Technical Advisor of the
National Council. Mutual cooper-
ation and coordination of the re-
spective research programs were
discussed. All groups present con—
cluded that the industries‘ inter-
.ests could best be served by es-
tablishing a working agreement
for the purpose of eliminating
duplicated effort and obtaining
mutual assistance. FormatiVe
plans for such an arrangement
were made to the. satisfaction of
both research organizations and
the representatives of the Wash
ington mills, most of whom are
members of the Council.
Dr. R. E. Brown of Rayonier,

phosphorescent fire sweeping
down from the Skokomish. The
night flight of waterfowl startled
from sleep by our intrusion, their
eerie, lonely calls echoing across
Space. From the darker deeps, the
flash and glow of scaley denizens
outlined by the phosphorous.

the result that the odds favor

week of July 17th the least dan-
