Mayor Richard Neill, who called a special council meet ing late in the week, inform ed the council of the com pany's action, and said the de cision to move it to Bend probably resulted from "dilly dallying around" by the Ash land council.

Mayor Neill said he believed if the council "had gone ahead as originally proposed and leased the warehouse to the company, I am sure they would not have considered the move to Bend."
