Churchill Forest Industries Battles Over Indian Land For Plant Site
The Pas discussion stalls as Churchill Forest Industries presses for Indian Reserve land to host part of its plant. A third meeting is planned while the Indian Band awaits the new Indian Agent. The company seeks 200 acres east of the river near Umpherville, with tax and lease questions unsettled. Mayor Trager reports delays and urges fuller information since government support funds the project. The mill opening remains targeted for December 1968, but qualification of cutters and location specifics remain unresolved.
