Interior View, Tavern car, Southern Pacific s streamlined
Shasta Daylight to go Into service between Portland and San
Francisco, July 10.
iSouthern Pacific Cars Get
.Design From Timberline
Timberline Lodge, mile high on the slope of Mt. Hood, furnishes
the design theme for the tavern cars on Southern Pacific's new
streamlined Shasta Daylight trains which will go Into service
July 10 between Portland and San Francisco.
Native woods, wood carvings, brilliant reds, deep blues, spark
ling mirrors, high intensity
lighting all combine to provide
a vibrant color scheme.
Decorative feature is the bar
section occupying nearly 18 feet
at the central portion of the car.
The bar, brilliantly illuminated
from an overhead canopy, has
the top done in real redwood
burl. The front and canopy have
wood panels showing animal life
of the Pacific northwest hand
carved in oak, separated by red
panels on which a pine needle
design is painted in black and
silver. At the back bar, between
glittering display cases, is an il
luminated transparency in full
natural color of Timberline
lodge.
At the ends of the car are
huge natural color pictures of
Crater lake and Mt. Shasta, il
luminated by concealed lights
and so arranged that it appears
the passenger is looking at them
through huge windows. On a
large wall opposite the bar is a
huge hand-painted mural of Mt.
Hood.
Two sections, each having 27
seats, occupy 19 feet on either
side of the bar section. The ceil
ings are in pale yellow, walls
have a grayed Monterey finish,
the seats are finished in cedar
tone leather, table pedestals are
hand carved in oak and the
floors covered with deep blue
carpet. Draperies in blue and
cedar stripes cover each pier
between the huge windows.

Buses in North
Remain Idle
Seattle, June 20 W) North
Coast Greyhound lines buses lay
idle for the third day today as a
result of a strike which follow-!
ed a collapse of negotiations be
tween the company and the AFL.
Motor Coach Employes union, I
local 1384.
Pickets appeared at the Seat
tle central bus terminal when
the company called in supervi
sory personnel to handle depot
duties. Non-striking drivers on
other lines refused to take their
buses into the terminal and pas
sengers boarded and debarked
in the street.
The union has asked a 10-cent
hourly increase across the board
and retention of working condi
tions granted in the contract that
expired May 1. John D. Parker,
union business agent, said the
company wanted to pay drivers
by the mile rather than by the
hour.
Honey Colored
Oil in Alaska
Washington, June 18 WP The'
world's largest oil claim, on the
northern shores of Alaska, has
produced a honey-colored oil
thaat smells like gasoline and,
will pour at 70 degrees fahren-j
helt below zero.
The oil came from a test borei
In the navy's 85,000-quare-mile
petroleum reserve No. 4 in the
Point Barrow area, the bureau!
of reclamation says in its first!
report on Alaskan resources.
Pointing out that no oil in
commercial quantities has yet
been found in the reserve, it
said:
"In the event that pools of
sufficient size to warrant de
velopment are found, engineers
have already roughed out pipe
lines, highways and possible
railways linking the fields with
Interior Alaska, and eventually
the ice-free coast of the gulf of
Alaska."
The report added that oil
shales assaying from SO to 100
gallons and more a ton have
been found near the mouth of
Alaska's Noatak river.
It said Alaska's coal reserves
of more than 110,000,000,000
tons may be found to justify
construction of at least one syn
thetic oil and gas plant.
