THE MORNING OREGON IAN, TUESDAY, APRIL 12, 1931

DESIRED BY COUNCIL
VIR
SUITS
Definite assurance that Portland
will get a new union passenger ter
minal station is sought by the major
ity of the members of the city council,
who yesterday intimated that they
would refuse to approve the plans
drawn by the railroads for the de
velopment of the Guild's lake freight
terminal and vacate streets sought in
this connection unless such promise is
forthcoming.
The new passenger terminal sta
tion In this city was the main subject
of discussion at the informal confer
ence held by members of the city
council, as they viewed the maps in
connection with the freight terminal
project.
Sw Station Held Important.
"What the people and the city cotfn
cil are interested in," declared City
Commissioner Barbur, "is a new pas
senger depot. It is the passenger
facilities that impress the visitor and
I believe that the railroads should
include a new passenger station In
these plans."
Commissioner Pier announced that
he did not want to "buck" the plans
of the railroads in Increasing the
freight moving facilities, but he, too,
declared for a new passenger terminal
and held that the railroads should
give the city council some- assurance
on this subject.
While Commissioners Barbur and
Pier expressed desire to hear some
thing definitely on the passenger
terminal situation. Commissioner
Mann went them one better. He con
tended that the council should de
mand written promises for a
passenger terminal. v
Eut Side Promises Recalled.
"Let's tie them up before we grant
any concessions." said Commissioner
Mann. "Their promises are Jike pie
crusts. Look at the promises given
to the east side and never delivered
after the railroads gained what they
sought in way of concessions.'
Mayor Baker explained that he had
Rained the impression that from a
commercial standpoint the develop
merit of additional freight terminal
facilities was the most important
thing that Portland could gain from
the railroads. He said that he was
anxious to make a complete study t
the proposal before making any de
mands.
City Commissioner Bigelow said
he favored the inclusion of a passen
ger terminal in the proposed plans,
but did not believe that the city
-should demand the construction of
such a station, this year, or the next.
or even the next.
Traffic Relief Suggested.
"However, the plans should be given
to us and this body should know
that when the proper time comes
Portland will be given a passenger
station on a par with stations to be
found in other cities of the size and
importance of Portland."
An overhead crossing from the
Broadway bridge to Ninth street, as
a means of relieving traitio on
Broadway, was a plan suggested by
Commissioner Mann to be accom
plished in connection with the freight
terminal development.
Widening of Front street was ad
vocated by Commissioner Barbur. who
held that the street would have to be
widened some day and that it would
be cheaper to accomplish it now than
25 years later.
Officials to Make Inspection.
Upon the suggestion of Commis
sioner Bigelow, the city council. City
Kne-ineer Laura-sard. City Attorney
Grant, Chief Water Engineer Rand-
lett and G. B. Hegardt, chief engineer
of the dock commission, will person
ally Inspect the territory affected by
the terminal plans.
Members of the dock and port com
missions, railroad officials and mem
bers of their legal and engineering
departments and newspaper men will
accompany the council.
This trip will enable city officials
to familiarize themselves with the
ninn of the railroads, after which
the nlans will be referred to the en
gineers for study. As quickly'as this
study has been complete, the council
nriii conduct a public meeting, after
wiiirh the matter of vacating the
streets required by the railroads will
v. .uhmitted to the voters, to be
passed upon on June 7.

Fully half of the suits on the

Shoddy and Reworked wool.
Shoddy is made from old wool
rags, worn out long; before they
are rewoven into cloth; re
worked wool is made from man
ufacturers' clippings and has
little strength because of the
short wool fibers.
The long wool fibers in

have greater strength; there

service, hold its shape and look
