Regional Committees will also be stimulated toward setting up projects covering con- ditions peculiar to, their area of the country in a manner similar .to that which the Washington mills have established. Tile University of Washington 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, chairman of the Technical Com— mittee of the Washington mills at- tended the joint meeting. After the tragic explosiongof Port Chicago, Calif, over 3,000 inquiries were received by Ameri- can Red Cross Disaster Service from anxious relatives through- out the United States, seeking in- formation on the welfare of or relatives.
