The boisterous good humor of Jurmala, the nickel-mine owner, is, if anything, only barely dented by the raging battles in Finland before, during and after World War Two. In fact, everywhere he goes, he meets prospective customers on all sides of the conflict with his all-inclusive greeting "Friends, Comrades."

Thus, he has no reason to fear that he will ever run out of customers. This doesn't prevent him from using every possible means to entice them.
