"he CPLIA, through able leadership, has brought its industry .ihers to this threshold which may; at this convention, result in .ne change in the 52-year-old organization itself, by careful steps, ating, getting individual member opinion and ideas, and gen* \ly providing its people with information which will help them :o proper and profitable decisions. - :rhere is no intention to force complete Diversification on any- .*. but, if he feels he may better serve the public and himself by . ring a greater range of products and services, the goal is to pro- V.? him with the information and the means to do a good job in itever field he selects. This',*we feel, is the essence of the Democratic process and surely will agree who have participated over the years in this big and r.vlmate group, there has been full opportunity for democratic ex . t ossion. * This convention will carry this all a step farther and your com- ,:icte participation is wanted on every level. Enjoy the convention ,.nd help the industry do the job its majority selects to do. . Chaired by CPLIA treasurer Edward J. Schalk and with assist ance from Technical Consultant John J.

DECEMBER 1363 Num ber S CPLIA's New Name Is IAWGC! After 52.years trf exclusive interest in.lath and. plaster the Con tracting Plasterers and Lathers international Association has voted to change,its name to- "International Association of Wall 8c Colling Contractors." -reflecting- the*-industry!--increased . participation in. Diversified systems and broadening the base of this big industry throughout the world. . The move has been formalized over several years during which the CPLIA gave patient and careful consideration to the needs and desires of the industry and to the trends of the times and needs of the public. No one is urged to change his operations, and lathing and plaster ing will continue to be a prime interest of the organization, but mem bership ranks will be opened to others than those primarily in lath and plaster in the hope the entire Wall i t Ceiling industry may eventually become one united front with divisions for specialized interests. Emblem and logo changes will be announced soon while WALLS & CEILINGS continues as the organization's official publication and seeks information which will aid this greatly broadened industry interest. - . When Bill C. Carroll gives up his post as president January 1, 1970 to incoming prexy Thomas J. McGlone a warm industry-wide "Thank You" will go to him for a job well done under most trying and busy circumstances as well as that of friendship and warmth. Bill Carroll has added stature to the 52-year-old organization and his successor will find his post one of great opportunity because of this fine young man's leadership, ability and dedication. Thank you, Bill Carroll, and welcome Thomas McGlone to the large future!

Two demands are coming, however, which must be accommo dated if real progress is to be made in most important avenues. The all-important Technical Committee will ask that more time be allo cated for its in-depth deliberations and hard work. Likewise, local managers and labor advisors will ask that a suitable time be set for l the National Bureau deliberations in a locale free from interruptions .....

' " COMPETITIVE INTEREST - - Continuing Liaison will be maintained with the Acoustical and * . . Drywall Contractors toward amalgamation of interest and pov . ..iib le eventual merger or consolidation. NON-INDUSTRY MEMBERS Membership in the organization is now open to contractors in other fields lha_n lath and plaster and they need not be prin cipally in lathing and/or plastering to join. BOARD Over a period the number of members of the Board of Directors will be gradually reduced in order to provide one board mem- ' ber for approximately each 10 members, along with voting rights for Past Presidents. ANNUAL DUES ' ' Will henceforth be determined iiy the membership at eaeli ' annual convention without requiring amendments to the By ' Laws. (For this coming year the dues remain as at present.) JOIN GROUPS Members are urged to affiliate with the American Subcontract Tors' 'Association and the Construction Specifications Institute. LATHERS-CARPENTERS While voting for continuation temporarily of "status quo," Carpenters and Lathers are urged to adjust their differences immediately for the industry's benefit and public interest. Offi cial liaison will be established with both the Carpenters and Painters International Unions by the CPLIA. STILTS International and Local Unions will be requested to allow the use of Stilts and other such cost-saving equipment where per mitted by safety and health regulations. AREA- BARGAINING The organization will encourage State- and regional-wide bar gaining units. STR1KES-IOCKOUTS The Governments of Canada and the U.S. will be asked to establish a code of ethics protecting contractors against u n io n " strikes and "interim" agreements, and to compensate them for additional costs incurred on Federal work beyond their control at the signing of contracts for work in the future. APPRENTICESHIP * Broadest support and cooperation with Industry Training p r o grams shall be continued. _ NATIONAL AGREEMENTS Will be encouraged and fostered wherever in the industry best interest as to working conditions, health and welfare, pension programs and jurisdiction. WALLS AND C El LIN  \ . . . And A Big, Busy Exhibit Area FINESTONE - ELECTRO PLASTICS UNITED STATES GYPSUM 'Success Is Learning About Your Business.,- Delegates to the Las Vegas con vention picked and chose among a number o( educational programs, each of which was repeated on sue- . cessive days. Contractors who miss ed a sessiotvuhe first, time could catch it on the next go-round. Reg.- istrants occasionally found certain, presentations-so-interesting th e y t- tended more .than once. "Success" w as ' th e contention * theme. Specialists in different fields cowered 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 for many con tractors, who find it a natural tie-in with mechanical piaster applica tion. David Caston of Thomsen Divi sion. Royal Industries, and R. Rich ard Stone. Merli Plastering, pointed out advantages of boom-equipped concrete -placement rigs and. ex plained operating procedures based on extensive field experience. A relatively new field, concrete pumping with 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 concrete 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. Taxes -- Aggressive tax planning was urged by John Anderson, Los Angeles attorney. Staying well with in bounds of the law, he explained, there are many areas calling for in dividual judgment where an agres sive policy can pare tax bills. For example, depreciable assets should be written off in the shortest pos sible time at accelerated rates. In the case of real estate, throw high est possible proportion of the pur chase price into improvements or even supplies -- spelling out mini mum land-valuation in the purchase contract whenever practicable. Anderson described a typical, taxplanned business structure. The op erating company is a corporation whose assets consist primarily of working capital. It makes payments to two investment entitities. One owns buildings and real estate, the other machinery and equipment. Owners can legally double personal exemptions for their children by establishing irrevocable trusts for them, income accruing via limited partnerships in the company own ing machinery and equipment. As for outside investments, the attorney suggested shopping cen ters as a good way to go. He said the investor can earn 207 to 307, W.
