McGinnis, vice president of the South ern Pacific company. His statement is entitled "The Facts About Southern Oregon Train Service." The only criticism we have of the title is that it should have been "Some of the Facts About Southern Oregon Train Service." The statement is a carefully-worded explanation attempt ing to iuatifv the totally inadequate and miserable train service given the Southern Oregon territory. It apparently was mailed j d,'jihsa j,,'1wa. out to thousands of persons, who, ignorant or the tacts wnicn Mr. McGinnis DOES NOT mention, might be led to believe there is some measure of excuse for the Southern Pacific com pany's treatment of this vast empire over which it holds a trans portation monopoly. Mr. McGinnis goes into great detail concerning the degrees oi grade and curvature between the Cascade and Siskiyou lines to show the great saving in operating costs resulting from running trains over the Siskiyou line where there is allegedly less need for helper service nnd where such service can be more efficiently used. lie does not mention the fact that the amount of money spent to build the Siskiyou line, for the purpose of taking busi ness from a COMPETING railroad, would, had it been spent in improving the Cascade line, have furnished a roadbed fully equal to the route the Southern Pacific company so highly ; extols. ' j "On the Siskiyou line overnight passenger train service With j sleeping cars is provided daily between Portland and Ashland. : Passenger service between points on the Siskiyou line 'and 1 California is provided by busses which connect with trains at j Dunsmuir," Mr. McGinnis reports. ' Particular attention should be given that word "connect." j Mr. McGinnis does not mention that simultaneously with the; elimination of through passenger service, train and bus schedules i were systematically arranged so that NO CONNFCTION could ! be made at any points without delays and long waits. He does not tell how one schedule was arranged so that the train ar-' rived just 20 minutes after the bus departed. Nor docs he' tell how schedules were juggled to force northbound passen gers from California to go to F.ugcnc and return south lo Southern Oregon by bus so the Southern Pacific could get the advantage of the longer travel involved. Nor docs he tell how the Southern Pacific company for years and year cudgeled the City of Roseburg by threats lo move the terminal, as in the case of the attempt lo secure a crossing and construct a bridge to Umpqua park. The South ern Pacific company held forth promises of extensive expansion of ils sidings and switching yards and threatened removal of its terminal if the project was insisted upon. Roseburg, spinc lessly, dropped the mailer. But did the Southern Pacific com pany give the City of Roseburg any consideration when it de cided to move ils terminal? Certainly not. When the com pany wns KF.ADY to move, IT MOYT-.D. "In recent yearn ihe.ie has boon u M-.ljslnnlinl industrial devel opment in Southern Oregon in connection with lumber mills, and we have assisted these industries in finding locations and! working oul their problems," Mr. McGinnis asserts. That sounds fine. Hut who, Mr. McGinnis, when the Ken-! dall Brothers were in the In-ydcy of their industrial sin cess nnd projecled n railroad to their North Umpqua timber holdings' and the city oi Roseburg voted bonds to assist, blocked Tl TAT j project? ; I he Youngs Hay Lumber company, affiliated with the Do-j lense Plants Agency, is luiildinir a $(r50. ()()( mill :,..! f I?,,-, i burg. Millions of dollars worth of wood products will come ' Imni that plant and the plywood plant which will share the site! when priorities make it possible to install the factory. Hut 1 who is building the spur track) The Southern Pacific com-' pany furnished engineering details of a preliminary survey, and . will construct a switch and put in a few feet of track, but it is costing the Peninsula Plywood company and the Youngs Hny Lumber company $150,001) to construct the spur track which will deliver business to the Southern Pacific company. Yet : there are a great many spur hacks in industrial renters where there is rail competition which have been built at the expense of the railroad company. A great deal of Mr. McGinnis' statement is devoted to the ' Southern Pacific company's outstanding accomplishments in i war transposition. The company has every right to be proud : of that achievement. It has set transportation history. Hut we have a right lo demand that the Souhern Pacific com pany, lollowing the war, shall establish services and talcs com parable lo those areas in which it has competition. W e have a 1 right to demand that schedules be maintained lo stimulate ' lamer than cliscoutnge passenger travel in .Southern c also have right to demand that statements be I be public, for instance, should be lolj that (he failure of the Southern Pncilic company lo obtain a profit (10n, pilssct. ger revenue was due to inadequate service rather th, of roadbed grade and cuivatnre. 2:00 Gospel 'Messages, Church of Christ. 2:15 Treasury Star Parade, fea turing College Songs of the East. 2:30 The Shadow.
