Items of West Coast lumber manufac-
ture was announced in quotations is

noon by a number of the leading mills
T of Oregon and Washington.
/ Officials of the West Coast Lumber
mems association, in analyzing the
new price situation. find that should
the new quotations be fully establish.
ed in subsequent sales. they would
represent an advance of 4S cents per
thousand feet in the total output of
typical fir logs.
The associations analysis takes the
known yield of a typical fir log in its
various grade segregations and ap-
plies the new quotations on the seven
affected items. averaging this with
the prevailing price return on the
contents of the entire log, including
the 20 items not advanced. An ad-
vance of 4S cents per thousand feet
Is thereby determined for the logs re-
turn at such time as the new prices
may be established in actual sales.
According to r B Allen. secretary
manager of the West Coast Lumber
mems association, the reason for this
advance is the shortage of available I
stocks at the mills and the growing
demand for INt and Ike slash grain Z

NOT A
FINANCIAL ONE
Say Leaders of the Episcopal
Church at Conference
and Mass Meeting

At the conference of leaders of the
Episcopal Church held yesterday in
st stephens Church in furtherance
of the nation-wid campaign of the
Church, it was clearly pointed out by
the speakers that the financial end
OF the campaign was not the pri-
mary issue, and that the campaign
could be a wonderful success with
Out a single dollar being raised. The
speakers We're the Dew. Messrs, r.
kreitler, rector of the wealthy
parish of St Luke, Scranton, diocese
of Bethlehem, md the Rev DR.. ID. G.
Nc kinnon, New Bern, n. c. Both
men are leaders in the campaign and
with 4. other leaders are touring the
country holding conferences for the
better explanation of the campaign.
l,r. Mckinnon said in part:
Il find that there is great Difficult
u in people realizing the fact that
this campaign is not for the purpose
OF raising certain sum of money.
II is not planned to raise twenty mil
lions, or fifty millions or a hundred
million of dollars. The full title Of
the campaign expresses the purpoes
well. 1t is "A nation wide campa ign
for the mission of the Church. 1t n
designed primarily to have tins
church redouble its zeal and energy
in fulfilling ITS divisine mission. That
requires more than money. 1t re-
quires the greatest kind of consecra-
tion and knowledge. If we secure
that, the money end will take cara
OF itself. OF that we are certain
The money must come as the result
OF the renewed zeal. without that
renewed zeal the money will be val
ucless.
I'VE want to get away from the
idea that each individual parish has
oply itself to look after. We want
to realize that the smallest mission
is the responsibility of the whole
American Church. and that the af-
fairs of the whole American Church
are the responsibility of the small
est mission."
Bishop Darlington appointed 33 in
formation teams who will cover the
entire diocese, informing the congre-
cations of the plan and purpose of
the campaign. The diocesan commit
tee of the campaign is headed by the
Rev. Malcolm Maynard, of Belle
fonte, who has given up his parish to
devote his entire time to the work
of the campaign.
