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."
