The National Lumber Manufacturers Association is authorized by its charter : 



"To gather and disseminate information upon the production and shipments of lumber, market conditions, 

 and the supply of forest products; to make technical and other investigations of the properties and uses of 

 woods; to promote uniformity and efficiency in the methods of manufacturing and distributing lumber and 

 allied products; to establish, maintain and furnish, either directly or through the medium of other corpora- 

 tions, firms or persons, credit rating, collection, legal and traffic service for the benefit of the lumber trade; to 

 promote the use of forest products by all lawful means, and to furnish all lawful information concerning the 

 manufacture, use and sale of forest products." 



The National Lumber Manufacturers Association publishes a monthly summary of the lumber 

 movement and business conditions, assists the United States Forestry Service in the compilation of 

 lumber statistics, has presented fundamental facts about the industry to the Federal Trade Commission, 

 and is supplying the Interstate Commerce Commission with full information upon lumber rates and 

 classifications as called for under Docket No. 8131. In addition to the foregoing, the Association offers 

 the following highly specialized lines of service : 



Architects, Engineers, 

 Retailers andBuilders 



Are supplied with authoritative bulle- 

 tins upon the availability and selection 

 of structural timber, physical properties 

 and strength values, standard mill 

 construction, building codes, preserva- 

 tive treatment of timber, fire resistance, 

 the shingle roof, farm structures, etc.

 manufacturers, distributers, and wood- 

 using factories. The National Lumber

 is very reasonable. Ask
