turned from the annual meeting OF
the Grand Lodge, to which he had
gone as representative. This was
the first time Bogalusa had repre-

appointment to the office of grand
conductor of Bogalusa's representa-
tive. Among other ma tiers acted
upon at that meeting, the endowing
of the Odd Fellows Home at Crow
ley, La, was discussed, with pros
poets of success. To this end the
members will consider plans.
The degree team of Odd Fellows
will meet at Starn's Hall next Tues
day night and the regular meeting
will be held at the same place April

Bogalusa Plans
to Welcome Troops

Before the first of the present
year Bogalusa was working on plans
for entertaining the returning boys
of Washington parish, but owing to
the fact that few are returning
each week no definite time for the
welcoming program could be decided
upon. Mayor Sullivan has suggested
that in the event the boys arrive
home by the Fourth of July that we
could have a great welcoming for
them and within the next few weeks
We should know whether most of
them will be home by that time or
not Anyway, when they do arrive,
they will be given a welcome that
will eclipse anything of the kind ever
held in this vicinity beforehand that
means a great time is awaiting them.
The celebration win be in honor of
every man of Washington parish who
served in the army, navy or marines.

Mills Are
Losing, Money Now

Washington, May %. - Lumber
prices can be reduced only slightly,
if at all, from war time figures. Such
is the belief, of representative of the
industry now trying to reach a price
agreement with the Industrial Board.
Suggestions to the board for re-
auctions similar to the slash in steel
prices brought the reply from the
lumber men that they did not repre-
sent a sufficient percentage of the
industry to accept responsibility for
lower prices. Conferences which
lasted all day adjourned tonight
without an agreement Of any sort
being reached. Efforts to reach an
understanding will be continued nexs
week.
At the same time the lumbermen,
through their chairman, John H.
Kirby, claimed they were losing
money at present prices, and that
reductions could not be Enade until
the cost of labor came spwn. This
the board refused to allow.
"0ur prices and our production
costs are one," Kirby said when
asked if he had submitted a new
schedule of prices.
"0ur production cost has in
creased since the signing Of the arm
! ist:ce, and we are actually losing
money on many of our present sell
ing prices"
Kirby admitted this may be due TO
the present stagnation Of the bus:-
ness and building market.
