                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


         In the opinion of the Registrant, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly its financial
position at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, and the results of operations
and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994.  The results
of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the full year.

         Cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,447,000 as of March 31,
1995 consisted principally of short-term obligations of the U.S. Federal
Government or its agencies.  Long-term investments were principally obligations
of the U.S. Federal Government or its agencies with maturities ranging from
more than one year to up to 7 years.  These investments resulted from excess
funds generated from operations.

         As of March 31, 1995, notes and accounts receivable of $16.7 million
were $2.3 million higher than the $14.4 million at December 31, 1994.  This is
the result of increased balance on accounts receivable-trade during the first
quarter of 1995 when compared to the last quarter of 1994.  Receivables'
turnover has been maintained within normal historical levels, with an average
collection period below 60 days.

         Consolidated inventories increased $1.1 million from December 31, 1994
to approximately $30 million.  Higher raw materials inventory, principally
paper on the St. Regis Paper & Bag Division, as well as increased coal
inventories due to a scheduled shipment received during this quarter, were the
principal reason for this increase.  The increase of $355,000 in prepaid
expenses resulted chiefly from insurance and property tax prepayments scheduled
for this period.

         Total current liabilities increased approximately $1.8 million on from
the $16.9 million balance on December 31, 1994, which was the net result of
increases in accounts payable and income taxes payable, net of the decrease of
$2.4 million in short-term borrowing repaid during this period.  The $2.5
million increase in accounts payable was the result of balances payable to coal
and paper suppliers for material received during this quarter.  The increase of
$890,000 in income taxes payable resulted from higher 1994 tax liabilities
payable in April 1995.

         At its March 22, 1995 meeting, the Board of Directors of the
Registrant declared a 17 cents per share dividend on its common stock, payable
on May 18, 1995 to stockholders of record on April 20, 1995.  As of March 31,
1995, the Registrant has 5,494,200 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding.  This compares with 5,807,700 outstanding shares as of March 31,
1994.

                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Working capital for the period grew from $30.4 million at December 31,
1994 to $34.7 million at March 31, 1995.  Higher balances in short-term
investments, accounts receivable and inventories, offset by an increase in
accounts payable, were the principal reason for this increase.  Current ratios
remained healthy at 2.86 to 1 in March 1995 as compared to 2.8 to 1 in December
1994.

         During the first quarter of 1995, capital expenditures amounting to
$3.5 million were incurred, of which $3.3 million were related to the mill
conversion project.  This increase in property, plant and equipment was offset
by $1.7 million in depreciation for the period.

         As of March 31, 1995, the balance on long-term debt includes 1995
proceeds related to the mills conversion loans amounting $1.8 million.
Approximate aggregate maturities of long-term debt for the remaining of 1995
and thereafter are as follows:

         Loan agreements with term lenders impose certain restrictions on the
Company pertaining to working capital, indebtedness, dividends, investments and
certain advances, among others.

         The Registrant has available credit facilities with commercial banks
for short-term financing and discount of trade paper from customers in the
aggregate amount of $20,600,000.  Maximum aggregate short-term borrowing
outstanding at any month-end during the three-month period ended on March 31,
1995 was $1,800,000, with no balance outstanding as of this date.


Results of Operations

         Consolidated net sales of $22.7 million for the quarter ended on March
31, 1995 stayed virtually unaltered from the $22.5 million reached during the
same period of 1994.  Cement sales remained relatively flat with 4.9 million
bags sold during this quarter, approximately the same level of sales attained
in the first quarter of 1994.

<PAGE>   9

         Consolidated cost of sales as a percentage of total sales were 64.8%
in 1995, nearly unchanged from 64.3% in 1994.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased $682,000 to $3.1 million in 1995 as compared
to $2.5 million in 1994, and, as a percentage of total sales, from 10.9% to
13.8%, respectively.  This increase relates principally to higher pension and
postretirement benefit expenses.

         Interest and financial charges of $526,000 were 8.7% lower than in
1994.  This decline resulted principally from the combination of reduced
interest rates on the loans outstanding balance and the capitalization of all
the interest related to the mills' conversion loans.

         Consolidated interest income increased $116,000 from the 1994 figure.
Higher average investments volume outstanding during this period in addition to
improved interest rates on these investments, were the principal reason for
this increase.


Part II.  OTHER INFORMATION.

         In April 1995 the Registrant repurchased 75,000 shares of its
outstanding common stock for $2,181,000.  This did not constitute the
establishment of a share repurchase program but a spot transaction approved by
the Board of Directors.
