We applaud the efforts of Paul Tuss and Debbie Vandeberg through the Bear Paw Development and Chamber teams in Havre. Both organizations have long been admired in the area of economic development. We have the utmost respect for their efforts to bolster the Havre economy, evidenced most recently by the new Wal-Mart in Havre.
This column is offered in response to the viewpoint expressed by Mr. Tuss and Ms Vandeberg in the Tribune July 16 http://matr.net/article-24784.html .
