Convention Report
(Continued from page 5)
Plasterers' International Union, announced the formation of the International Masonry Institute. As of January 1st the new organization has been initiated so as to put greater importance on the field of promotion of the Masonry Industry in the United States and Canada. One of the most probing and thought provoking addresses was that by Dr. John T. Dunlop, Harvard University. The title of his speech was "The Construction Industry -Its Future". His address will be reviewed at greater lengths in forth coming issues of Masonry. The entire afternoon was devoted to viewing the MCAA Show.
The All-Weather Demonstration on Tuesday morning was the highlight of the meeting. Decked out in hard hats, members walked across the street to the site of several new structures where various enclosures were erected. With the temperature a brisk 20 degrees the various methods were demonstrated to the members. A full page of photographs and further comments appear in another section of this issue.
