1.  In the opinion of management, information furnished herein reflects all
    adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and

    effect of common stock options) have been computed by dividing net income
    for each period by the weighted-average equivalent shares of common stock
    outstanding.

3.  Certain prior year amounts have been restated to conform to the current
    year's presentation.

       of Operations

Results of Operations
- - ---------------------

The Company reported a net loss of $0.5 million, or $0.02 per share, for the
first quarter of 1996 compared with a net loss of $2.0 million, or $0.09 per
share, for the prior year's first quarter.  The improvement is due to higher
sales volumes for all products and 20% lower unit production costs for the
aggregates operations.

The first quarter is usually the Company's weakest quarter due to the adverse
impact of rainfall on operations and 1995 had record rainfall in the Company's
California markets.

Business segment information for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995
is as follows:

</TABLE> 

*Adjusted to include tons sold by a previously unconsolidated operation, in
 order to be comparable to 1996.


Revenues in the Construction Materials Division were $75.2 million in the first
quarter of 1996, up $14.1 million, or 23% compared with the corresponding 1995
period.  The increase was primarily due to higher sales volumes as a result of
less inclement weather in California in the current period, and, also, rising
demand in the Arizona and San Diego markets.  The Division had a pre-tax loss
from operations of $0.3 million in the most recent quarter compared with a pre-
tax loss of $5.1 million in the year earlier quarter.  The improvement was
primarily due to higher earnings from aggregates operations, due to 20% lower
unit production costs and 24% higher sales volumes.   Unit production costs
decreased primarily due to efficiencies associated with the higher volumes, as
well as lower labor costs.  The aggregates improvement was partially offset by
lower earnings from our asphalt operations, caused by 7% higher unit production
costs, of which two thirds was due to increased costs of liquid asphalt and
aggregates.

Properties Division
- - -------------------

Revenues in the Properties Division, excluding gains on sales of real estate,
were $5.3 million in first quarter of 1996, up $0.6 million from revenues of
$4.7 million in the corresponding 1995 period.  The increase in revenue for the
current quarter is primarily due to increased revenues from landfill operations.
Pre-tax income from operations was $3.0 million in the most recent quarter
compared with $4.5 million in the year earlier quarter.  The current quarter
includes $0.7 million of gains from real estate sales versus gains of $2.9
million in the prior year's period.  Excluding real estate gains, Properties
Division pre-tax income from operations increased $0.7 million.  The increase
was largely due to increased income from landfill operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------

Cash and cash equivalents were $0.0 at March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, as
the Company used all available cash to reduce outstanding borrowings.  Cash
provided by operating activities was $12.8 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1996.  Cash used for investing activities was $15.6  million,
including $16.2 million used for the purchase of property, plant, and equipment.
Cash provided by financing activities was $2.7 million, including a $4.0 million
net increase in debt, partially offset by $2.3 million in cash dividends.

Working capital totaled $26.8 million at March 31, 1996, down from $33.6 million
at December 31, 1995.  Current ratios were 1.5 and 1.6 at March 31, 1996 and
December 31, 1995, respectively.

Total consolidated long-term and short-term borrowings at March 31, 1996 and
December 31, 1995 were $88.4 million and $84.4 million, respectively.  Debt as a
percent of total capitalization was 21.2% and 20.3%, at March 31, 1996 and
December 31, 1995, respectively.
