Harvest. A process that is turning out
to be such an important part of a cou
ple of environmental issues in the
Pacific Northwest.
By the time you read this, hearings
will have opened before the “ God
Squad’s’’ administrative law judge on
the issue of harvest of some specific

tracts of old growth timber. Seems the
BLM (an agency of the Department of
Interior) wants to sell some timber and the Fish and Wildlife Service (an
agency of the Department of Interior) wants to keep it standing to protect
the habitat of the Spotted Owl.
Both sides have their allies. The BLM is supported by the timber in
dustry and the Fish and Wildlife are supported by groups of preserva
tionists. The hearing is expected to go on for three weeks. Who knows
how long it will be before there’s a decision?
The second issue involves harvest in a little different way. The Nor
thwest Power Planning Council plan is to reduce harvest of Columbia River
salmon from 75% of the annual runs to 50%. The plan has its advocates
who say the reduction is right on and its detractors who argue that a reduc
tion in harvest is too harsh. (I wonder just what kind of stir a plan to harvest
50% of the Spotted Owls would create.)
Again, both sides are aptly represented by protectors and harvesters.
But in neither instance, harvest of timber or harvest of salmon, are the
real parties in interest at the table. Harvest of nearly any crop whether
it be timber, salmon, wheat or alfalfa is driven by a group conspicuously
absent from the environmental talks.
Take wheat, for example. For centuries the harvest, the need for it all,
the extent of it, the planting for a new crop, has been to satisfy, not the
harvester, but the people who eat the bread it makes. Its people, people
who use the harvested crop, for whom it is even necessary. People do not
eat Spotted Owls, nor use them in any other valuable way. That’s why
there is no owl harvest.
But people do use lumber. Mostly to build homes. Those homes that
we now build cost an average of $100,000. No wonder there is a growing
number of homeless.
Shouldn’t the young people who will be in line to buy a home in the
near future be at the table? Or should we just let the bird lovers and the
loggers decide their future for them? The present battle is between the in
trinsic value of an endangered species and an occupational group. Work
ing folks might be retained to work somewhere else. But where else will
future generations of Americans live? The choices are few. Steel, con
crete and glass condos or tents of cardboard on some back street.
It is not merely a matter of an obscure species of bird that is endangered.
It is a matter of the American dream of a little cottage with a white picket
fence where a family can live and grow and enjoy the freedom of being
an American.
And where are the salmon consumers? Salmon is the American equivalent
of Russian caviar and may well be limited to the diet of royalty. Again,
the American dream of serving salmon to diiuiei guests once in a while
is at risk. Shouldn’t consumers be at the table?
What is at play is a human failing. Most of us, at one time or another,
are certain that we know what’s best for other people and we simply fail
to consult them. Perhaps we should be a little more concerned with what
our neighbors want than we are with what we think is good for them.

Hospital auxiliary will fill great need
To the Editor:
December holidays speak of
goodwill toward humanity and is
a season rich in the giving and
sharing of love. Loving and be
ing loved makes us all happy and
connects us to all that is good in
the human spirit. I am hoping that
this message is being shared with
each person in our vast area, for
we have in front of us a great
need in our community.
The Pioneer M emorial
Hospital Auxiliary is struggling
to be reestablished. This group
has been of a great benefit in
aiding in the well being of our
elderly and a very needed and
vital part of our community. By
looking beyond ourselves we tru
ly find peace and love. With an
adequate volunteer group no one
will be overwhelmed and yet
many who are unable to help
themselves and must count on the
compassion of others will be
helped. A gift of time is a gift of
love. I know we have many car
ing people in our community and
by joining together to help in the
hospital auxiliary, we would all
feel the blessings, especially the
elderly in our community.
The auxiliary plans for a
meeting January 9 at 7 p.m. at
Kate’s Pizza. I truly hope that you
will realize how you are needed,
and we can combine our talents
and abilities to benefit all. If more
information is desired, please call
Tonia Adams at 676-9616.
Sincerely,
(s) Midge Michael
