THE ONE GREAT CHANCE FOR RAILROAD ECONOMY
an wb ' -
AS announced here last, evening the O. W. R. & N. Co. is
forced to curtail s6me on its passenger service in order
to reduce expenses. No complaint is made against that
action, but it is timely to remark that t,he greatest economy this
railroad and other railroads' could mate would be to electrify.
With the single exception of the Milwaukee our northwest rail
roads are all' operated by motive power based on the use of coal
ind oil. . . . " , .
This fuel is shipped in from other states and necessarily the
-t .. 1 . . I . r - rt-i ..
auci cum is someming lerruic. mis cost tails directly upon the
shipper and consumer who must pay rates to produce railroad
dividends on present costs. The practice is also injurious to pos
terity for the reason our coal and oil suppliea will some day be
exhausted and therefore these supplies should be conserved in
every possible way. 1 . ' '
j While the railroads consume -vast quantities of oil and coal
yearly we are allowing the water power of the northwest to go
virtually unused. The Columbia r:ver alone-can be made to
generate enough hydro electric power to operate every railroad
in the northwest Once developed that power is inexhaustible
and is provided by the Almighty without cost. . ,
The development of power on our rivers is the foremost task
before our people and it is a task that should no longer be neg
lected. The people of this region believe that the Columbia
, rapids power site is the most feasible for early development and
are planning to get the subject fairly presented before the pow
ers that be. It is a great move for the common good and it is
logical to expect a very pronounced interest on the part of the
railroads now forced to rely on coal and oil for motive power.

' THE ONLY USE WE HAVE FOR THEM
G ROVER. CLEVELAND BERG DOLL, millionaire draft
dodger who has found a haven of refuge in Germany,
sends word that he and his chauffeur will return to Am
erica, "if America needs us." -
There was -a. time that America needed them and where
were they then? They did not volunteer their services to their
country and they fled from the draft officials when their time
came for induction into' the army. They have been dodging
the long arm of the law ever since and have only eluded it by
crossing into the country which was their own country's enemy
during the war they would not help fight.
It would be a fit punishment if they were banished from
America for life and compelled to spend their days in Ger
many. America will never need such citizens as they unless
perchance she should want them to exhibit before growing
young Americans as examples of all that an American should
not be.
- AFTER TOURIST BUSINESS
THE Portland Chamber of Commerce and the Oregon
State Chamber of Commerce, representing every section
of Oregon, have gone on record strongly endorsing the
work of the Pacific Northwest Tourist Association which was
organized four years ago to attract and direct tourist travel to
the Pacific Northwest states. The association has been the
cmef factor in- advertising and disseminating information in a
national way regarding the scenic grandeurs of Oregon. That
work may be co'ducted on a larger scale, the association this year
is to ask the state legislatures of Oregon and Washington, and
the parliament of British Columbia for increased appropriations
luiuiot, travel Dureaus.
In connection with the work of the major organization, it is
proposed that a separate bureau be established in Oregon, to
be financed by the state an controlled by a commission to be
ppointed-by the governor. For this purpose it is proposed to
appropriate ?12,500 a year. The Oregon bureau would have
the direction of the tourists to the various sections of the state,
would keep in touch with hotels, would issue information re
garding roads, would assist the scenic sections of the state to
develop the tourist business to the highest possible degree, and
would do evervthina-
make Oregon one of the most attractive states in the union for
iic entertainment 01 tourists. " w. ;
Properly handled, it is believed, the Oregon bureau can at-'
