PAGE TWELVE THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 1922. SALEM JOINS IN MOVEMENT TO HALT UNMERGER A plea, to the interstate com' (tuerce commission to prevent sep juration ot the Southern and Cen- Krai Pacific railroads as decreed In the recent decision of the United I States supreme court, is voiced by the Salem Commercial club In a 'communication authorized by the club directors Tuesday evening ana drawn up and signed yester day. The communication reads: "Mr. C. C. McChord, chairman interstate Commerce Commission, .Washington, D. C. "Dear Sir: The board of direc tors of the Salem Commercial club has considered the effect the sep aration of the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific lines would have upon the growth and pros perity of western Oregon and par ticularly upon the Willamette val ley, jn our deliberation we have listened to representatives of the Southern Pacific and also the Un ion Pacific, though at no time have we been unmindful of the conditions that existed during the time the Southern Pacific was dominated by the Union Pacific. "We have called before this board representative business men and shippers and we find that the expressed opinion was that the separation would be most barmful, and would have a deter nt effect on all business in this territory. Also that the separa lion would lead to a condition that gave rise to the case of H. S. Gile & company versus Southern Pacific company, case No. 3589, decided by Interstate commerce commission during January 1912 "We realize that your commis sion has the power to rectify a Condition that if permitted to con tinue would become harmrul, therefore, we have resolved to ap prise you to our conclusions, namely: "First That this community, and from the press and other re ports all territory in the Willam ette valley and southern and west ern Oregon served by the South ern Pacific company are strongly opposed to the separation of the Southern Pacific and Central Pa cific systems; ana "Second That we support the continued existance of the South ern Pacific and Central Pacific as a unit; and "Third We respectfully" re quest the interstate commerce commission to take any action that may be necessary or appro priate to prevent an enforcement of the supreme court decree. The enforcement of which decree "would In our opinoin destroy the bouthern Pacific as a competing route on eastern traffic. Fourth Therefore, we trust mat me commission in such a manner as may be proper will ex ercise Its rights under the trans portation act and prevent the sep aration from taking place. "Yours very truly, "SALEM COMMERCIAL CLUB," "By J. C. Perry, President."
