Neither railroad can carry out any of its plans in part or whole except with the permis sion of the Intestate commerce commission The commission is holding a hearing in Portland. October 6, upon these various ap plications. The Southern Pacific takes the ground that it has recognized its obligation to develop this territory as being a section naturally to be served by Its system. Its plans for this section between 1912 and i9iz were suspended through no fault of its own. During this en tire period an attack was made through the courts upon Its hold ings of the Central Pacific and ef fort made to make It sell Its in terests in the Central Pacific. As the line to Ogden and the linea to northern California were largely of Central Pacific ownership, ob viously nothing could be done un til that question was disposed of. As soon as the Interstate . com merce commission did finally dis pose of it by sustaining the claim of the Southern Pacific to its own ership, work was actively, begun upon the Natron-Cut-off, to put the Klamath Falls section on the through trunk line between the North Pacific coast and California, and more recently It was announc- ther plans, made many years ago. for serving this territory. Includ ing a direct line to the east, would be carried out, promptly. During allot this time,, from! 1914 on, the Oregon Trunk ter minating at Bend. 14S miles north of Klamath Falls, unhampered by any legal difficulties, did not see Its way clear to make any exten sion southward into this territory. No action was taken until tho Southern Pacific had invested a sum running into many millions in furtherance of its plans, and had announced the main features of its proposed construction. The Southern Pacific points out that there is no more reason for the Oregon Trunk coming south ward Into this territory than there Is for the Southern Pacific to build! Into Bend, the timber products being of the same nature while the agricultural products of Southern Oregon and Northern California In much the larger part find their markets - on Southern Pacific lines. To extend the South ern Pacific lines to Bend or the Oregon Trunk Into Klamath terri tory, simply hauling timber pio ducts for a larger distance than Is necessary, bringing both the rail lines and the mills Into an -undesirable ad not a constructive competition. Further, If the agricultural sec tions were served by the Oregon Trunk to the exclusion of the Southern Pacific, they would be deprived of direct service to great er part of their markets which are reached only by the Southern Pacific. .
