The system consists of a conductive layer called 'Temsheet," * which is the heating element. This revolutionary new r of electrically conductive paper, develop by The Armstrong Cork Company, is fac laminated between two sheets of gypsum wallboard. The factory finished panel is simply nailed to the ceiling and connecte an attached pigtail wire to the thermos!# and power source. Since there are no wires embedded in the panel, it can be cut to any desire length. Halt-conductive panels which ca cut to any length or width are available for odd shaped rooms. Once the panel :s up, the joints are taped and finished. And the surface is painted. That's it. The job is done. What could be easier-7 Here's how it helps sell homes: Georgia-Pacific'S new Radiant Heat and Ceiling System warms a room just '& sun heats a roof or attic. Since the heat panels are located in the ceiling, each u is warmed by heat radiating downward to the floor, There's no loss of heat. Wit thermostat in each room you get indivtd room heat control. Not only that, there are no furnaces, ducts, pipes, vents or chimneys to worry about. No moving parts makes this system virtually maintenance-free.

Specialists in different fields covered everything from how to make money in flooring to tax im plications of the various types of corporate business structures. Among the subjects: Concrete Pumping -- A highly profitable endeavor tor 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.

These features account for the growing popularity of c o n c r e t e pumps over the more familiar hoist or buggy methods. An application which holds great promise is place- ment of low slump mixtures where gunite would ordinarily be speci fied. Production is at least double that of gunite, there is 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. Taxe* -- Aggressive tax planning was urged by John Anderson, Los Angeles attorney. Staying well with in bounds of the law, he explained, chore axe many areas calling for in dividual judgment where an agres sive policy can pare tax bills.

At GE, as contract time nears, the company floods its workers with factual data on the status of com pany earnings and the wages and fringe benefits enjoyed by its work ers compared to those jn 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 15566, however, a cost-of-living modi fier was eventually added.) GE is pleased with Boulwarism, pointing out that the last companywide strike occurred in 1946, just before Boulware took over. It is vigorously appealing an NLRB or der to cease and desist. Assuming Boulwarism is eventu JENKIN LLOYD JONES ally okayed in the courts, wl it work in your business? Or is bar gaining so ingrained in the wage system of America that a iake-it-orleave-it proposition is impractical in most cases? There are good ques tions. But a higher degree of leveling with employes as to the company's ability to pay may be very much in order. For in a year of generally declining profits we are seeing in P e rlite is th e le a d in g p la s te r a g g re g a te . many cases the most dramatic esca lation of wage demands.

At the same time, the gov ernment credit squeeze and higher taxes have begun to slow the flow of orders and to clip profits. This has been done, of course, to fight inflation.

Collective!y, members of an industry or profession can accomplish more at less cost than any single member could accomplish by himself. By gathering, analyzing and disseminating information about the entire trade or profession, the CPUA gives mem bers insights into new developments . , , a united voice in matters affecting their business . . . and more receptive m ar kets in which to sell their goods and services. Associations conduct expensive research that individual members have neither personnel, facilities or budge! to under take -- and the benefits go to the entire membership. Consultants and field representatives are maintained by many associations, including CPUA, to give expert advice to members routinely or on a special basis. A t low cost CPLlA-sponsored seminars, workshops and conventions, members receive once-in-a-lifetirrve opportunities to learn from top-flight specialists in their field.

A revolutionary new devel opment by Inland-Ryerson greatly increases the wind load capacity of exterior walls built with steel studs and cement plaster-w ith out significant added cost. It makes such construction more appealing to the archi te c t-a n d greatly increases youropportunities to secure more business. The only difference from conventional construction is the use of the new CompRated Screw (patent pend ing) to attach the metal lath to the studs. The heads of these screws embed in the cement plaster, thus pro viding p o sitive attachment o f the m em brane to the studs. The membrane and studs then w ork together (composite action) to resist wind loads, affording higher wind load values than con ventional c o n s tru c tio n in which the studs have to carry the whole load. The Inland-Ryerson C om posite Exterior Wait will re sist greater wind loads than a conventional wall of the same height. It may be built to a greater height and still meet the specified wind load requirement And the recom m ended assembly offers a b o n u s -a 2-hr. fire rating on both interior and exterior surfaces. We're advertising and pro m oting this new idea to architects to help get this system specified-to help bring more profitable busi ness your way. Be familiar with it.
