New Mahogany Corporation in New Orleans 



Announcement comes from New Orleans of the organization in 

 that city of the International Mahogany and Trading Corporation, 

 producers of mahogany logs, lumber and veneers, with mills and 

 offices in New Orleans. The company has extensive holdings and 

 ownership of lands and concessions in Mexico and Central America 

 and the incorporators and officials have had a broad experience in 

 the manufacture and marketing of mahogany lumber and veneers. 

 The offices are in the Whitney-Central building. The officers are as 

 follows: W. G. Blair, president; John T. Howard, vice-president 

 and treasurer; Jay P, Felt, secretary; Henry Auchu, director and 

 G. W. Guirl. manager. 



Automatic sprinklers in the plant of the Kentucky Veneer Mills, 

 Louisville, Ky., on Jan. 28, held a blaze down while the department 

 arrived, the total damage to the plant being less than $300. The 

 fire started in a wooden shaft box, from an overheated bearing. 



Allen Heads Mengel Company 



Announcement was made on January 4 of changes in the offi- 

 cial family of the Mengel Company, Louisville, Ky., whereby 

 Arthur D. Allen succeeds C. C. Mengel as president of the com- 

 pany, while Mr. Mengel becomes chairman of the board of 

 directors. Mr. Allen has been first vice-president for about five 

 years, and became executive vice-president a year ago. H. P. 

 Roberts, secretary for thirty-four years, has resigned in order to 

 retire, and Claude C. Harris, who has been in charge of the im- 

 port and export divisions, becomes secretary. Col. Mengel, in 

 discussing the election of Mr. Allen, said that promotion came 

 "because he has made good and shown himself to be competent 

 to manage the business." The Mengel Company started business 

 as the Mengel Box Company in July, 1899, being chartered with 

 a capital of $1,000,000 under the laws of New Jersey. The busi- 

 ness has grown until it is ten times or more its former propor- 

 tions. Col. Mengel reports the outlook for 1922 as much brighter 

 than last year's outlook, as England is buying hardwoods freely, 

 and France is starting to buy. 



John W. Boehne, Sr., well known furniture manufacturer of 

 Evansville, Ind., has been reappointed as a member of the federal 

 reserve board at St. Louis, which position he has held for a number 

 of years.
