A pledge to Portland was given by

"The Northern Pacific has one hand
extended to Portland from the East and I
one from the North. It has both feet

of its offices from the Pacific through I
to the Atlantic coast, telling the public I
ajl about Portland and the 1925 expo-
eitlon."
A complete statement of ownership of

organisation, was given by Elliott be-
fore he proceeded to7 outline his plans
under which the two Hill roads will

ern.
"The owning companies have dis
cussed and come to a tentative conclu
sion that better operation and better
development may be obtained in the
future if, instead of owning the road
through the securities, the Northern Pa
cific and Great Northern each own an
undivided one half of the physical prop
erty from Spokane to Portland, giving
each company, therefore, its own line
between Portland and the East via Pasco
and Spokane.
"This problem is now being worked
out and It may be possible that the plan
I have outlined will come to a head dur
ing the calendar year.

8ITCATIOIC COMPLICATED
Through the heavy interests of the
Northern Pacific in terminals in Port
land the company is taking a decided
interest in the consolidated terminal sit-
uation and the attlture of the railways
on this question is best outlined in his
address as follows:
"The passenger terminal situation in
Portland is somewhat complicated, for
of the two passenger terminals here, the
Northern Pacific has a 40 per cent xwn
ershio in the Union station and a 50 r
cent ownership in the North Bank sta
Uon
"The Northern Pacific has joined with
ther rode in consolidate

tlon. A working agreement has been
byu,the reprsssnUtivea of the
railroads, which agreement has been con-
flrined direotcajs of the several
wnpanies.
'There may be some unavoidable de-
lays in connection with working out all
the details, but the railroads are pro-
ceeding with as little delay as practica-
ble to prepare their facilities so that
Port! id will have a consolidated pas-
senger terminal, and also adequate
freight terminals.
" "The railroads are coming back to
the land, and on, my trip across the con
tlnent this time I took a keen interest
in conditions Crop conditions from
Pennsylvania- to Oregon look aplendid

they are an inspiration to work harder
