Spruce and Lath Prices Raised by Lumber Association
At the Pacific Coast Lumber Manufacturers Association meeting in Seattle the spruce lumber list advanced by 1 per 1000 and lath by 0.25 per 1000, pending ratification by the Southwestern Washington Lumber Manufacturers Association. A conference on railcar laws was planned with transcontinental railroads. The secretary reported railroads rejected the laws, and a eight member endowment committee was formed to raise 150000 for a Yale forest school chair. Freight rates to Minneapolis are not increasing per J G Woodworth. Shippers complain of shortage amid encouraging overall lumber trade.
