No taxes on the land, because it has no value, being covered with valueless and unremovable things.
No payroll, no income of any kind.
No freight.
No future service.
Just trees.
The next time you read or hear one of these "tree murderer" remarks, challenge the speaker or writer to back up his talk with facts.
There is nothing but foolish, impractical, maudlin, and utterly thoughtless motives behind this recent campaign to cast slurs upon the commercial cutters of the forests.
Let's put a stop to it. Let's tell the people the truth, and you will have these shouters scampering for cover. Let's be proud of this business we are in, and stand up for it every time some lnrocker comes along-or let's get out of it.
No men in this nation are doing a greater service to humanity than the men who are cutting the trees. VtIe are in a business to be proud of.
Let's tell the world about it, and put the slander-mongers in their place.
Let's inject a few facts intothis "tree murderer" campaign. Because the facts are ALL on our side.
