SS, l SANITARIUM a GOREYGLAIMS Letter States Idaho-Pacific Line Would Hasten Road Across State Construction of the proposed Idaho-Pacific railroad from Nyssa, Oregon, to Winnemucea, Nevada, would tend to hasten rather than retard construction of the cross state railroad from Crane to Crescent Lake, according to a let ter received at the offices of the public service commission Wednes day from the Nyssa chamber of commerce. The letter was in reply to th action of the commission in filing a petition for Intervention in the Idaho-Pacific railroad case. It was set out In the petition that the public service commission was opposed to the construction of the Idaho-Pacific railroad at this time for the reason that such construc tion would interfere with and re tard action on the cross-state line. 'Competition and not interstate commerce commission orders build railroads," read tbe letter received from the Nyssa chamber of com merce today. "Let some compet ing line, tap this country with short cuts to coast markets and the Union Pacific railroad com pany will be ready to build new lines." It was charged in the letter that the Union Pacific company had refused to build new lines on the plea that the tonnage was not sufficient to warrant the expense. "The Union Pacific has a mon opoly on rail transportation in this section," continued the letter, "and does not want any short cuts or competition." Application for a certificate of public convenience and necessity in connection with the proposed Idaho-Pacific extension Is now before the Interstate commerce commission. MATTHEWS GIVES TALK TO SENIORS "If you cannot be a peroxide blonde, be a paradoxical brunette" advised Professor James T. Mat thews in his annual Senior Chapel address at Willamette University Wednesday. A paradoxical brun ette, he explained, is a person who would rather be someone else, or else the same person doing some thing different from his present occupation. However, this pecul iar brunette is doing the best pos sible work in . his or her present employment, and Is not complain ing. Professor Matthews warned that mistakes will come in life, and that there will be moments when individuals will be ashamed of themselves. "Then what will you do? Why, powder your nose and go on," he advised cheerfully. The senior chapel program was opened by the march of the class, in cap and gown, into the audi torium. Donald Grant, president yon can A mad a brief speech, pointing out that the senior year Is a year when seniors do many things for the last time. "We have come to the end of scene four of the act called "College." he said: "only a few more speeches and the cue will come for us all to leave the stage, and the curtain will be rung down." Following the address of Pro fessor Matthews, the seniors marched out of the chapel, and members of the other classes moved foward to occupy seats ap proximately the same as those they will have during the next school year. President Doney greeted the new seniors and de clared that he hoped the profes sors would justify the optimism apparently entertained by all the students who moved forward.
