That this is not shared, locally, at is evident in Universal's efforts to get back into full production of its vitreous china wares for household plumbing as rapidly as possible. Mr.

Postlewaite said-nearly all employes laid off last fall had chosen to return when the opportunity came. "This naturally pleased us very much," Mr. Postlewaite said. As part of its move to full production, the company completed new kiln recently which Mr. Postlewaite reports "is performing better at this stage than we had expected." Of slightly different and new design than the kiln it replaced, its operation "is very encouraging," Mr, Postlewaite said.

New County Office Building Plans Readied are expected within one month for the construction of the new San Bernardino county office building, another major step toward relieving the county office congestion, Donald" A.

Densel, county public works director, informed the board of supervisors. It will be located east of the court house block on recently acquired property oh both sides of Court street, which will be Inclosed. The supervisors formajly signing of a contract between the board and the architect brothers, Stiles and Robert Clements, of Los Angeles. The architects estimated the cost of the new county' office building at $1,200,000, Densel said. They set their fee at a mix- imum of 6 per cent of this amount.

At the same time the county public works director told the supervisors that bids on the projected "new county building at Twenty-nine Palms was $60,000 more than the architect's estimate prepared by Rack and De- Masirevich of Redlands. As a result, Densel said, all bids were being rejected and the architect has started work on revised plans for this county structure. He will have these revised plans ready in another two weeks, the county building chief said. The original plans called for precast, tilt-up construction of the office building for the desert community, Densel explained. But because all the wiring and other utilities would have to be installed in the walls in San Bernardino, the costs of transporting the precast segments of the building ran costs beyond any expectations, Densel said.

"It only goes to prove that tilt- up construction the best thing for every situation. Lots of, times other types of construction prove cheaper," he observed.

In describing tfig value of visitations of between elementary and secondary schools, Mr. Hurlbert stated "Since we are faced with some real problems of curriculum which will involve teachers and teaching on all levels, there seemed to be a great deal of justification for providing a day of this kind." In former years, the state education code required all teachers to participate in six hours of in- Istitute training. The institute featured workshops on specific problems and outstanding speakers in the fields of education- and industry. Recent legislation giyes the- local board of trustees authority to hold an in-service training program.
