"One by one, communities
throughout the West have lost their mills, their jobs and the
vital attachment and commitment to the land that agricultural
based societies have. All this presumably because harvesting timber and recovering minerals can no longer be done without reprehensible damage to our ecological system. We feel there are
many factors that herald the return of the small, independent
Mill, and that rural communities such as ours can once
again have the direct and indirect benefits derived from
operating mineral & forest product firms in their midst."
