Show LESTER ERBES 1/1 is what we don't want. So I think there's a possibility here of other industry besides tourism. SG: I understand they've hired a full-time recruiter to try to get new industry into this area. LE: That's right. This year is the first time. SG: There are certain types of industries you don't want, I gather from your comment about pollution? LE: That's right. That's policy. That's the way they figure it. Now, this isn't just a personal opinion. That's what they want. They want pollution-free industry. SG: What is the main reason, do you think, for the fact that this area is non-union, with the exception of Atlas and T.G.S.?

So I've been told. They're just aging it, that's all. SG: Well, certain parts of the country are heavily union, and certain parts aren't. LE: That's right. Like Pri.ce, for instance. That's heavily union, coal mining. SG: And that's quite close. Surrounding territories usually are union, too. LE: I think that most of the businessmen in our town are 36 |
