BETTER RAILWAY
R. H. AIshton, With Party in City,
Promises Portland Full Hear
ing Next Week.
Recognizing the fact that Portland, has
been given the bad end of the trans
continental passenger deal, R. H. Aish
ton. regional director of the railroads for
the western district under the govern
ment administration, Friday night
pledged his influence to put into service
at least one through passenger train each
way dally.
Mr. Aishton arrived in Portland at i p.
m. from Seattle. He was accompanied
by J. Q. Woodworth. traffle assist
ant; I C. Gilman, federal district
manager of the lines in Oregon and
Washington : W. P. Kenney, federal
manager of the Great Northern Railway
company, and Judge George T. Reid,
vice president of the Northern Pacific.

liam Q. McAdoo for July 15 According
to Mr. Aishton, they will return to
Portland on Wednesday of npjt week
and remain one or two days Investigat
ing the traffle problems ef the city
and of the state.
Favors Better Service '
When asked last night for an opinion
a to the adequacy of the transconti
nental passenger service afforded Port
land by the Northern Pacific railway,
Mr. Aishton replied : "There is no doubt
in ray mind that this service should be
Improved and Portland given vone
through train each way dally to Chicago.
Upon my return from San Francisco
next week I will be glad to go Into the
merits- of the case and "endeavor to co
operate with the people, of Portland and
local ralroad officials In securing better
passenger service. .
"One thing I will promise that the
cards will alt be laid on the table, so
to speak, and the government's side of
the ease made plain n every controversy

Asked for an Opinion as to the' ad
visability of shipping wheat and other
products ef Eastern Oregon and Wash
ingtam through the Columbia river gate
way en water grade to Portland, rather
than a greater distance ever a high
mountain range to Puget Sound ports,
Mr, Aishton said,- "This is a matter,
it. seems to me, for tha food admlnstra
tion to settle. However, I will say that
tha railroad administration ts In need
of equipment and will not favor heavy
burdens on available equipment it It Is
shown that a more expedient routing is
open for the transportation of freight."
As to lending encouragement to the
use of the pert of Portland for offshore
Bhlpplng as well as Puget Sound porta,
Mr. Aishton was ef the opinion that
this Is a problem for the people ef
Portland to decide. The railroads un
der government control will carry freight
to any port where ships are watting to
take tt away. The people ef Portland,
he said, should provide shipping facili
ties from this port and the reads would
gladly use the terminal facilities avail
able. . , .
Coaferenee Bare Arraaged
A meeting between Mr. Aishton and
members of the Portland" Traffic and
Transportation association and repre
sentatives of the Chamber of Commerce
will be arranged for Wednesday night
or Thursday and a thorough examina
tion will be made of the merits of Port
