Debra Kostrzewski, Argyle, Minn., letter: Crystal workers thank supporters
We would like to thank everyone who has shown their support in our struggle against American Crystal Sugar. The honks and waves go far in lifting our spirits at the picket lines or the rallies we hold across town.

DRAYTON, N.D.: Main Street locked out by lockout
As smallest Red River Valley community with American Crystal Sugar plant, Drayton feels pinch of lockout even more
Drayton likely is the hardest hit community proportionally of the five Red River Valley plant sites because its population of 800 is the smallest, about half of Hillsboro’s. But some see a greater harm than lost wages and lower beet payments to growers, not the least in community relationships -- some which may never be mended.

RALPH KINGSBURY: North Dakota won’t be immune from globalization’s woes
Globalization. That’s the way they describe it now. When the trend first started, it was called free trade. We were told — and most of us believed — that if only we would let production take place in countries with the greatest “comparative advantage,” we would all be better off. It’s not my intention to discuss the American Crystal situation again, except to say that as it relates to free trade and globalization, the federal sugar program’s survival even in the near future is questionable.

Kevin Johnson, Billings, Mont., letter: Crystal executives should yield
I grew up in Grand Forks, and although I moved away in 1979, I always have been proud of the people of Grand Forks. I was in Grand Forks recently taking care of some family business when I found out about the American Crystal Sugar lockout.

Harvest: Beans mostly binned; corn combining underway
Beets only harvest delayed by heat
Mike Beltz, Hillsboro, N.D., was on the road, running for parts to keep his corn harvest humming along Tuesday, after finishing up his soybeans last week. He is typical of most farmers in the region as the exceptionally warm weather last week drove harvest home fast in North Dakota and Minnesota in what had been a late year until recent days.

Weather speeds corn, bean harvest; stalls sugar beet lifting
The hot, dry weather of the past few weeks allowed the harvest of corn and beans in North Dakota and Minnesota finally by Sunday to move up to or ahead of the normal pace, after a growing season that has been behind schedule from the start due to too much water. But the same weather is delaying the lifting of sugar beets.

Tom Hansen, Grand Forks, letter: Workers must assess where they stand
