"Success" w as th e convention theme. Specialists in different fields covered everything from how to m ake money in flooring to tax im plications of the various types of corporate business structures. Among the subjects: Concrete Pumping -- A highly profitable endeavor for many con tractors, who find it a natural tie-in with mechanical plaster applica tion. David Gaston of Thomsen Divi sion, Royal Industries, and R. Rich ard Stone, M erli P lastering, pointe! out advantages of boom-equipped concrete placement rigs and ex plained operating procedures based on extensive field experience. A relatively new field, concrete pum ping w ith so-called "small line" equipment has a number of inher ent advantages: f a s t placement, lower cost, efficient operation even in tight and congested areas, and easy access to remote forms. These features account for the growing popularity of c o n c re te pumps over the more familiar hoist o r buggy methods. An application which holds great promise is place ment of low slump mixtures whore gunite would ordinarily be speci fied. Production is at least double that of gunite, there 3s only a frac tion of the rebound waste; rocks may be incorporated if desired, and the concrete is stronger. The system has been successfully employed for swimming pool construction, lining drainage ditches, etc. Taxes -- Aggressive tax planning was urged by John Anderson, law Angeles attorney. Staying well with in bounds of the law, he explained, there are many areas calling ter in dividual judgment where an agres sive policy can pare tax bills. For example, depreciable assets should be w ritten off in the shortest pos sible time at accelerated rates.

At GE, as contract time nears, the company floods its w orkers with factual data on the status of com pany earnings and the wages and fringe benefits enjoyed by its work ers compared to those in comparable jobs elsewhere. Then the company sits down and listens to the union proposal. After ward, the company comes up with its offer which is not supposed to have hidden beneath it any extras for last-minute concessioneering. tin 1966, however, a cost-of-living modi fier was eventually added.) GE is pleased with Boulwarism, pointing out that the last company w ide strike occurred in 1946, just before Boulware took over. It is vigorously appealing an NLRB or der to cease and desist. Assuming Boulwarism is eveniu- * JENKIN LLOYD JONES ally okayed in the courts, will U work in your business? Or is bar gaining so ingrained in thu wage system of America that a take-it-orteave-it proposition is impractical in most cases? There are good ques tions.

Inflation, which has b e e n pro duced in large measure by labor costs that have outrun productivity, provides the rationale of union ne gotiators For ever-increasing wage dem ands to buck "th e rising cost of living." At the same time, the gov ernment credit squeeze and higher taxes have begun to slow th e How of orders and to clip profits. This has been done, of course, to fight inflation. This, therefore, would he a mighty good y e a r for a lot of company frankness. Most employes, w h e n facts can be trusted and when they are spelled out so they can be un derstood, are inclined to be reason able. B ut honesty can't be a sometime thing. If companies are to tell the tru th w hen things are tough, they'd better be prepared to do so when things are better. Maybe, in the long run of labor relations, that would be a great idea, anyway.

The only difference from conventional construction is the use of the new C o m p Rated Screw (patent p en d ing} to attach the metal lath to the studs. The heads ot these screws embed in the cement plaster thus pro viding positive attachment of the m e m b ra n e to the studs. The membrane and stu d s then w ork together (composite action] to resist wind loads, affording higher wind toad values than con ventional con stru ction in w hich the stu d s have to carry the whole load. The Inland-Ryerson C o m posite Exterior Wall will re sist greater wind loads than a conventional wall of the same height. It may be built to a greater height and stilt meet the specified wind load requirement And the recom m ended assem bly offers a b o n u s - a 2-hr. fire rating on both interior and exterior surfaces.
