Wenda Sang, Karlstad, Minn., letter: The lockout’s forgotten employees
We could be replaced by the wording in the contract proposal. I urge the company to change the wording in the proposal to reflect what managers seem to be saying to the public. Work with the union; don’t base everything on the one contract offer that is still available.

Brian Ingulsrud, Grand Forks, column: Negotiating in good faith can’t be one-sided
As we have from the beginning of these negotiations, American Crystal Sugar Co. remains committed to good-faith negotiations. We want our employees back on the job. Why is the union holding up negotiations based on unfounded claims of an attack on job security?

Grower majority appears to support Crystal management
As American Crystal Sugar Co. growers shift into high gear todayto lift the 2011 crop, their union workers are still standing on the outside looking in after two months of a lockout. What do the growers think about that? Apparently, many — perhaps a majority — are fine with the way their company has prepared for a lockout of Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union workers. Few will talk about it.

Paul Cline, Buckeye, Ariz., letter: Workers have no ‘right’ to company’s profits
If management is smart, it will pass on a percentage of the company’s good fortune to its employees. A happy and stable workforce is the greatest single asset a company has. But make no mistake: Doing this simply is smart business. It’s not a benefit owed the workers.
