Tree Cutting
Industry HuInning
With Activity

KalispeI the Christmas
tree capitol Of the world - is
humming with seasonal actlv-
ity.
Cutters are chopping trees
eight hours a day near Kal1S-
pell. and in a few weeks 3,000,-
900 Montana trees will be in
homes all over the country.
It's a hard. job: A cutter
trampS off into the wood in
October and works six weeks.
Usually he can cut, trim and
yard about 125 trees a day. I'm
less he's in business for him
self, he sells his trees to the
company operating the nearest
concentration yard for each
bale of trees - a bale in Mon
tana averages "A trees.
Then the trees are sorted,
tagged and baled in the yard.
The bales are tied tightly with
tWine to save shipping space
and reduce damage in transit.
When the baler takes over,
he saws the tree butt square
and. piles the bales at a rate
of $50 to 200 bales in eight
hours - then the trees are
ready for shipment.
Most of Montana'S 5000, 000
Chritmas trees travel by train,
LOTS bales of ALSO trees to the
car.
In the past years Montana
trees have gone to SO states,
but four-fifths of them go to
the midwest. Chicago is. the
main city market. However, its
biggest buyer is Joseph Navilio.
He is in Montana for his 18th
season and, with his seven
brothers., markets trees not on
ly in Chicago but in st. Louis
and cities in California, Texas
and Oklahoma. Navilion also
buys trees in Canada, but he
says you can't beat a Montana
tree.
The states Christmas trees
bring in more than 100000
a year and provide each tree
harvester with $3.50.
Not counting cutter, more
than 500 people in the Kalispell
area haul, tie, inspect and ship
the annual Christmas tree crop.

Legion Commander
Says Korean
War Must Be Won

War atrocities give added en-
phasis to the thinking which
prompted the American Legion
to demand by resolution that
the Korean war be won, De-
partment Commander Grover C.
Schmidt, Jr., of the Montana
Legion states.
In reiterating the words of
the national commander of the
Legion, Don r. Wilson, at the
recent conference of department
commanders and adjutantS in
indianapolis, Schmidt, a Fort
Benton attorney, said:
"TheSe atrocities give the lie
for once and for all to all those
people, even those in high
places of our government who
consider that the business of
foreign relations is not the bus
mess of the American Legion.
"They give the lie to all those
who assert the American Leg
ions concern with the security
of America and the conduct of
it's foreign relations is polite
ally inspired
1.-THE American Legion denies
the right of any man or group
of men to demand of us or of
the American people that we
sit idly by while soldiers of
America are brutally slain for
less than complete and total
victory.
"These atrocities give added
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1951-11-29

emphasis to the thinking of the
American Legion that the Kor-
can war be won.
1.-The time has come when the
business of Waging war must he
taken out of the hands of our
state department and placed
exclusively in the hands of our
military leaders to the end that
the war may be promptly
brought to a victorious conclus-
ion and that further blood-let-
ting may be stopped.
"It is no longer possible for
our government to alibi the
contemplate and intolerable in
competency of our own state de-
partment.
ut is ironic that the atroc-
tiles should have accomplished
the thorough arrousal of the
American people when they had
so complacently and with such
blithe spirit accepted 100000
Korean casualties listing over
$4,000 dead.
"This complacent and ire
| sponsible attitude is not the
fault of the American people.
They have been callouSly vic
timized by their own govern
ment through the medium of
psychology of de-emphasis and
fear.
During a period of increas-
ing points of tension and crisis,
the American people have been
bombarded by their own govern
ment with propaganda calculat-
ed to underplay the gravity of
the situation with which they
are faced.
I'm regard to China becoming
Communist, when Russian
trained forces made excursions
into China our former Chinese
allies were called crooks. We
| were told there was no real
| CommuniStic threat in that area
| of the world.
June Is, 1885, the full ex-
| tent of the Communist perfidy
| was learned. American arms,
SlilpS dltu pldltcS WSlS I'LL
suddenly in to fill the gap
| which had been created by I'M
realistic and short-sighted dip
lomats.
"Then after the military had
arrived at a point where VIC
tory was within their grasp,
diplomacy reasSerted itself and
we were suddenly and without
warning told that the victory
was considered to be diplomat
ically undesirable.
"It is not a persuasive argu-
ment for us to use with other
| peoples of the world wanting
to halt Russian aggression to
tell them that we will involve
them in a war like Korea, we
will destroy their lands, we will
kill their people but we will not
defeat their enemy.
1.-THE American Legion con-
siders it vital to bring the Kor-
can war to a successful military
| conclusion"
