Eye Sight Specialists 805 State Street, Salem, Oregon To the Public On Monday, March 1st, the railroad lines of the Southern Pa-, cific Company were returned to their owners for operation. As a war measure they have been in charge of the government during the last two years and two months. The stockholders in that period had nothing to do with the manage- ment. In taking over the management of this property, the policy ct the owners will be to give as satisfact ory service as lies in their power in return for the patronage given us; to seek the co-operation of shippers and passengers and of the whole people in having our service reason ably responsive to the public needs. We have to ask the patient for bearance of the public during the readjustment period of the next aix months. It is true during these six months the Government contin ues the standard return allowed the lines while under its control, based on the pre-war earnings. But this return is subject to certain legisla tive directions by congress that will affect operations during this period which enda August 31st next. We expect, however, within this six months to mature plans for the fu ture. These plans had to be held in abeyance thus far because of uncer tainty.as to the legislative condi tions to accompany the return of the roads to their owners for oper ation, and these conditions have been determined by congress only within the last few days. We now hav t study what, is before us in law and in fact and get -our bear ings anew. - The Operating organization as it existed under Southern Pacific man agement has been to some extent dibarranged during the period of federal control and operating prac tices that may jiave proved efficient ' in the public service during the government control period, will, of course, be retained. . We could not purchase equipment after we entered the war because the government took control and war financing occupied the field, while during the rest of the time the question of adequate credit hd to wait for answer in congressional action. On the other hand, the locomotives and cars In service have been subjected to the most ac tive us; and new rolling stock has not been renewed throughout the country in normal numbers for the increase of normal traffic. The burden of extraordinary war move ments fell heavily upon all kinds of rolljng stock, making it impossible to shop the equipment at the proper time, and repair work was further delayed by shortage during the larger part of the war period in both men and material. Tne problem before us at one,', therefore, is how to put to the best use the passenger train cars and the freight cars that are in service, and how to put into good condition for service every piece of equipment to be had. This prob lem ia before every railroad. Abreast of this is the larger ques tion whether the earnings under the new law, the "Transportation . Act of 1920", will be enough to es tablish the credit of the railroads -at a point were they can provide themselves with the facilities of all kinds that they need to give the public proper service. We have the will if only we can . find the ways and means. These are not easy to find, for an assumed earning of ev en 6 per cent, and no assurance of that, is not attractive U anyone having money to invest when money is worth 7 or 8 per cent in the open market. Hence, the effect of the new act of congress upon earnings and upon Monmouth Heights A cattle buyer of Falls City was in these parts buying beef cattle one day last week. ' L. D. Hamar and J. P. Walker assisted Dave Dove in sowing some grain on the Clark place last week. H. R. Fishback was in Salem on business Friday. Fred Welch was a business visitor to Independence on Thursday. Lloyd Cody purchased a milk cow of Daniel Calbreath recently, ,' Dow Hamar was in Independence in business Friday. ' , Carl Pollan of Monmouth was 3een on the Heights one day , last week. Mr, and Mrs. PineBurbank from uth of Monmouth . were ' at the Mlit Bosley home on Friday afternoon.- ; . ' '" ' : , ' Mrs. Fay Frink and children re- turned to Corvallis the first of the week, after a visit of .several weeks with her brother A. J. Shipley. ' Mr. and Mrs. Ed Wunder and the credit of the railroadi cannot be Immediately determined. This aot provides for rate-making structure, under which.-during the next two yean the railroads will be permitted to earn up to 5) per cent annually on the value of the railroads as may be determined by the Interstate Commerce Commit- ' sion. The Commission hat power at its discretion to increase these possible earnings to 6 per cent, the added one-half of 1 per cent to be used only for improvements to the property. No guarantee of any kind it giv en to any railroad, but half of any earnings over 6 per cent are to be taken by the government to make loans to railroads that may .need them for improvements or to care for obligations falling due, or to obtain and lease equipment to the carriers th at cannot afford to buy It. Obviously these elementi In the situation will have to be considered in making our plans. The Inter state Commerce Commission is the deciding body with respect to value -of the properties, as well as the rates which are to yield the 61 per cent return thereon, and much will depend upon the vision and prompt- nesa tf action with which that body accepts its great responsibilities. In the meantime, it Is particular ly desirable, in view of the short age of equipment, that every effort be made by shippers and the rail way forces to continue heavy car loading and train loading, and to lose no time in loading and unload ing cars. Believing that we will have the full co-operation of the people serv ed by our lines In dealing with the problems presented, it it due them" that in thus aiding us they should know what, problems we have to meet. You can rest assured wa are not idle with respect to them, WM. SPROVLE, Prfiiditii ( family of Independence spent fun- day afternoon with Mr, and Mr& Herman Wunder.
