(Continu,ed lrom Page B) general manager, said. "We've come to stay and we hope that our taxes, payroll ani industrial activity will provide a measure of stability to the area's hard-hit economy."

Schroeder added that the company,s motto is "Red,wood, foreoer,', and that Rellim Redwood management had dedicated its 24,000-acre forest as an .,Everlasting reservoir to serye the factories and conversion mills."

The company's timber lands are of suffcient size-to support and justify a permaneng multi-million dollar forest-pioducts operation. "Controlled cutting based on scientific knowledge of redwood re.growth rate will mean this forest will last and remain productive forever,r, Schroeder said.

Schroeder pointed out, however. that cer- tain associations have been .,petitioning,' Governor ooPat" Brown to set aside la{e portions of the Redwood timber lands and take t}lem out of production and off the tax rolls in a country that is already 67/o in Federal, County or public ownership. t'Any subtraction from our current tim. ber holdings," Schroeder said, "would destroy completely our plans for a long-term sustained yield operation. Add to that the loss of jobs, taxes and contingent economic activity, and the cost for such a move becomes exceedingly high.

"At Miller Redwood we believe that conservation means the maxi-um use of a resourceo" Schroeder said.

'oWith modern reforestation techniques," the manager added, "our forest can ofier perpetual yield and still be havens for the outdoor enthusiasts.

'oln this spirit, Miller Redwood's forests will always be open to use by outdoorsmen," Schroeder said. "The public will only be kept out of the forest if logging operations or hazards so dictate."
