psychological fact that when gener

Portland is the mecca of railroad
executives this week.
Carl R. Gray, president of the
Union Pacific, arrived Monday to re
main in the city the greater part of
the week. - William Sproule. president-
of the Southern Pacific, arrived
yesterday at noon, over the Oregon
Washington line from Salt Lake City,
accompanied by J. H. Dyer, general
manager, and F. L. Burckhalter.
assistant general manager. These
officials are engaged in a general
nsoection of the lines ot the South
ern Pacifio and will spend three or
four days in a leisurely and thorough
inspection of the Oregon lines.
Ralph Budd. president of the Great
Northern, is due today, and it is sur
mised that the outcome of the con
ferences that will fpllow his arrival
may determine whether the trains
of .the Great Northern will continue
permanently to use the Union station
of the Northern Pacific Terminal
company.
The visiting officials yesterday held
conferences with sub-officials here
and the presidents of the two big
systems, formerly united with the
Harriman system group, were in con
ference for a part of the afternoon.
BTew Equipment Promised.
President Sproule expressed grati
fication with the friendly interest In
the railroad problems that has re
cently been manifested by the public,
and declared that the Southern Pa
cific is endeavoring to meet the re
quirements of the public in the way
of equipment and service. -
The addition of considerable new
equipment for the lines in Oregon is
promised in the future, as rapidly as
the cars can be delivered oy tne
builders. v
New passenger and' baggage, cars
for the electric lines operating out
of Portland, as well as a great deal
of new freight equipment, will be
added during the present year. Com
menting upon the expenditures au
thorized by the corporation for im
provements and equipment he de
clared that Oregon will get a fair al
lotment of the funds available.
Financial Problems Viewed.
The attention of the railroad execu
tives have been centered very largely
upon financial problems of their cor
porations, as was evidenced by the
remarks of President Gray. "Stock
holders of the railroads realize that
they cannot afford to pay the inter
est rates on money needed for im
provements and new equipment, said
Mr. Gray. "But they feel that the
legislation enacted is actually of the
constructive sort and it is encourag
ing. The interstate commerce com
mission is engaged in the task of
determining what may be necessary
to give the. return provided unaer
the legislation.
'The railroads must have a great
deal of money to bring their prop
erties up to the requirements of the.
increased traffic. We must remem
ber that for four years the people
have been growing entirely out of
the habit of investing in railroad
securities of any kind.
