vision out of Portland, the rail
vice-president said, where as less
than 50,000 loaded cars were
hauled into the territory..
Because of the great disparity
between Oregon’s loaded inbound
and outbound traffic, Mr. Hale
pointed out, Southern Pacific has
brought close to 100.000 empty
freight cars into the Portland di-
visiion in 1950 in order to give
Oregon shippers their full share
of available equipment.
Forest products, forming the
great bulk of Oregon’s outbound
shipments, have accounted for
78 per cent of all freight move­
ments on the Southern rails from
this state, it was revealed. Rec-
ords for the first eight months
of 1950 how that the company
hauled 118,175 carloads of lum­
ber and other products of for­
estry from Oregon mills more
than ever before in any com­
parable period.
PORTLAND — In spite of a
country-wide shortage of heavy
freight cars—the most severe in
many years — Southern Pacific
has established an all-time high
in the first eight months of 1950
for movement of freight ship­
ments to and from Oregon.
This fact, eminently indicative
of Oregon’s spectacular growth
and expanding economy, was re­
vealed here last week by W. W.
Hale, vice-president in charge of
the railroad’s system freight
traffic. Mr. Hale is here with
J. W. Corbett, vice-president in
charge of operations for South­
ern Pacific, to give personal at­
tention to transportation prob­
lems in Oregon.

mendous total of 150,915 loaded
