Roseburjr's merchants join in urging the public to attend their huge Fall Opening Thursday night, and in the three sections of today's paper they bring you personal greetings, invitations and suggestions. Roseburg's annual Spring and Fall Openings have become widely known. They draw huge crowds regard less of weather. Tomorrow night's event will be the largest ever held and will offer the most in entertain ment Coupled with the usual simultaneous unveiling of show windows, Treasure Hunt, with hundreds of dollars worth of prizes, and the display of merchandise, will be "live" shows, music, Vaudeville and dancing. These events are staged as a contribution by the city's mer chants for the entertainment of the public. Naturally, the motive is not altogether altruistic. The Fall Opening probably would not be an annual event if it did not have a stimulating effect on business. But here is an opportunity to combine business with pleasure. The Fall Opening entertainment is furnished to the buyer and non-buyer alike, with the hope that the merchandise placed on display will impel more trade. And it should! We"ll wager that when milady sees the new Fall merchandise, particularly the stunning new styles, home furnishings, appliances, jewelry, accessories, automobiles, etc., money will be spent for something that will bring happiness, if the money is at all available. .But with or without money with or without trade Intentions everyone is invited by Roseburg merchants to share in the fun tomorrow night. CAR SHORTAGE CRITICAL The freight car shortage grows more critical daily. Nearly all mills have been forced to reduce their out put at a time when they could be running at full capacity. Thousands of dollars in potential payroll "are being lost because of inadequate transportation facilities. In this connection it is interesting to surmise on the recent decision favoring the Martin Box company in its suit against the Southern Pacific company. The Inter state Commerce commission supported the box com pany's contention that the railroad company had been discriminatory in its distribution of cars. It held that the Oakland concern is entitled to damages. The Mar tin Box company, according to the findings, received only BO percent of its freight car needs while other shippers were furnished 80 percent of the cars desired for loading. Lumber manufacturers charge that discrimination still exists toward the Umpqua area; that a higher per centage of cars are furnished for loading in the Will amette valley and in California than provided here. If such' condition DOES exist it might be possible that the Southern (Friendly) Pacific will have something more tangible than cuss words to answer. The car shortage, of course, is nationwide. Ws can accuse the "Friendly" Southern Pacific company of waiting too long to start buying new cars, but, because freight cars can't be built overnight, it is of little avail to attack the company for past performance. Presently, we want our fair share of freight cars. We want cooperation from the "Friendly" Southern Pacific in keeping our industry operating at its highest potential. We want no discrimination, such as has been definitely proven in the past. 18 Douglas Men Pass Draft Exam .Service board No. 14 has "released : ine names ot is registrants wno have passed their preinduction ex amination and have been found acceptable for induction.

Editorial Comment From The Oregon f reu MAKINO POLITICAL HAY OF CAR SHORTAGI Oranti Past Courier It probably is no great present aolace to lumbermen and othen dogged by lack of freight-car al lotment! to hear that the Southern Pacific railway has decided to bur 5,000 additional freight can and 46 more electric motors. Delivery of the new can cannot begin until early next year. That won l help the shortage of the cur rent aea son. In the meantime, the shortage Is becoming a political football. Recently, in Jackson county, Aus tin Flegel, Democratic candidate for governor, declared thai, it el ected, he would "bring luit" to foice the company to furnish carl in equal proportion in Doth com petitive and non-competitive areas. Such chatter certainly shouldn't lose Flegel any votes in this hard nil area. To keep the record straight, how ever, we should like to call atten tion to the fact, that, before one "brings luit," it is essential that the necessary evidence be pre pared. At present, that li exactly what ii being done. A committee of ship pers has been meeting periodically and has been working out a prog ram designed to solve the proh lem. First and foremost, the crying need is an accurate record of the ran being allotted by the Southern Pacific. Under the aystem to date, wherein shippers telephone the lo cal railway agent their requests, there is no verified permanent re cord of orders placed. The shippers' committee h a asked that all firms ordering cars by telephone confirm luch orders in writing. Then, when (he public utilities commission attempts to check the company's freight-car records, it can he determined ex actly how fairly allocations of available cars are being made. Mr Flegel nor no one else can furnish cars which are not avail able All that can be done is to determine that the cars the South ern Pacific has are distributed equitably. The public utilities commission is presently engaged in that task without Mr. Flegel in the govern or's chair. For instance, here is the state ment of the West Coast Lumber men's association; "Nutting (B. L. Nutting of Med ford, chairman of the association's special committee on car supplv) praised the puhlir utilities commis sioner of Oregon, Gcoxge Flc,gj for his cooperation wittl the lum ber industry to insure an equitable distribution to every ntijl in the sime.Flagg has had" a Staff of six men constantly in the field since the start of the shortage in June in an effort to step up the number of.r,r" com'n Nulling A' a I into the state ' V!"." ."fie?
