Environmentalists Win Again
The environmentalists have won again!
This time they have succeeded in closing the sawmill at
McCall, one of Boise-Cascade's most efficient operations.
This means a loss of jobs for 148 workers in the mill, plus
many more loggers, truck drivers and allied workers. Can you
imagine the impact that this will have on a small city of 1700
population? Schools, businesses, and the economic stability
of the town are at stake.
What seems even more serious to us is that efficient
management of our forests on a knowledgable. scientific basis
has to give way to a shortrange, emotional approach by the
Sierra Clubbers and others.
It’s nice to look at the pine trees now. but it seems to us that
a long-range planned harvesting and reforestration program
makes more sense over the long haul; and that is exactly what
the Forest Service. Boise-Cascade. Georgia-Pacific. Weyer-
hauser and others have been doing.
We think that the opportunities afforded by good forest
management are more important in the long run to our
children and their children, and generations beyond that; and
should take priority over the immediate desires of these
people who like to take hikes and commune with nature.
They apparently would prefer to see the forests destroyed
by lightning, bugs, and their man-made forest fires; rather
than systematic cutting and regrowing of trees for the
generations to come.
Who will provide the jobs, the lumber, and the recreation
for the generations coming up? Most of us who are here now
will survive, but our children will need the benefits of the
lumber industry, our largest part of the economy of the
Pacific Northwest states.
We think that the U. S. Forest Service, and the various
State's Forest Services, have done a reasonably good job ot
managing our forest lands for the multiple uses of lumbering,
agriculture and recreation.
,
We also think that our timber industry is doing a
responsible job in providing lumber, jobs, and the needs of
future generations.
This would seem a good area to let the professionals do
their job without our interference. Right now they are getting
too much interference, and we arr going to suffer for it.
"The objective of the
seminar was to further train
co-op employees for agri
department management."

The three day seminar
included instruction from
Cenex personnel in eco

added expertise to offer
improved services to cus
tomer-owners,”

Editor. The Journal;
Last weekend the Bend
American Legion Baseball
team traveled to Ontario to
play in the Sub District finals.
The Sunday game of the
tournament was scheduled
for Bend to play Nyssa,
however, due to a down pour
the evening before in Ontar
io, the game was moved to
Adrian.
May 1 convey the Bend
teams highest regard and
respect for your fine nine ball
players and quality of play.
As one of our ball players
said, "If trophies mean
winners, they should have
nine."
After the game, we met
Mr. Kevin Engstrom who
was gracious enough on
Sunday, to open the city pool
in order we could shower and
give the boys a quick swim.
From there, we invaded the
Twilight Cafe 4 Lounge with
forty strong and enjoyed the
meal as well as the very
friendly service.
So often it is easy to forget
to say "thanks". We certain
ly don't intend to this time.
You have a fine town, a fine
team and the spirit of both.
Thank you again. Nyssa,
for your generous hospitality.
Most sincerely,
Mr. 4 Mrs. Hugh McNair.
