Newspaper Page TextPage Two THE EUGENE GUARD NEW STATEMENT Following It a rtatement nbmltted by Elmer P. Harlow, secretary of the Etifene Milk Producers' association, relative to the so-called milk war be tween the producer! and distributors: "ye producers cannot set "the re tail 'price of milk In Eugene. That Je a problem for the distributors. VTawmvap. wn ran auirfeBt And urge that the dlstrlbutora get to f ether and utile their differences, Realising: that the present price of milk In Eu- 5 en is too low we have asked the istrlbutors to raise. Every distrib utor said he was in faror of a raise. Then why don't they put the price up where they can pay the producer what he asks and make a reasonable profit for themselves? "The consumer is not kicking. He did not ask for a cut in price of re tail milk. He la willing to pay a price that will give the producer and dis tributor both a living income. The Seople of Eugene realize that the pro uoer must prosper or the city will not prosper. Our money Is spent at home. "One distributor ie asking for arbi tration. Why? There is nothing to arbitrate Insofar aa the producer and distributor are concern fed. It seems that a board of arbitration could be appointed to good advantage to work out the distributors troubles.

Trains Unhampered Rotary snow plows have been operating on the Southern Pacific railroad company's Cascade line, with trains kept on schedule despite 12 feet of snow at Cascade Summit, on the top of the mountain range, it waa announced Tuesday by L. L. Graham, district freight and pas senger agent. Tne railroad company's own tele- fhone line between Eugene and owrll was out of commission Tues day because of weather conditions, a tree having fallen on the wire be tween McCrcdi- .pHngs and Cres cent lake. Heavy snows In the mountains are continuing, with considerable wind. Mall Plane Lands The air mall plane south-boand out of Portland piloted by Hebcr Miller of the Pacific Air Transport company was forced to land on the Eugene municipal field Tuesdny morning after bottling the snowstorm fnr three hours and 25 minutes. The trip to Eugene ordinarily takes out an hour. (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) shorter haul and Is general the coun try over . In cortaln cases, however, the rail road! have been permitted to go bo yond a general ruling of the inter state co miner co commfsiton on June 22, 1027, that "rates from to and between mid intermediate points shall In no instance exceed rates between terminal points by more than 100 per cont and shall In no cane exceed tho lowost combination." Such exceptions have been made with regard to intermediate points on raftronds In Oregon, California and Wnshlnston and it is these exceptions which the railroad" ere now asking to cominue and many people fear It will carry with It an upward revision of special commodity rates, such as J i noi p. on sngnr ana canned goods which are vital Industries in this sec tion. Terminal Rates Here Eugene Is more fortunate than many Oregon cities because It enjova along with Portland and Seattle and Sen Francisco the terminal rates on shipments to and from the pant, but on shipments up and down the Pa cific ci. a m it Is still classed as "inter mediate" and Its rates are much higher except where the special com- Wednosday Special CAMBRIC 4c Wednesday, Jan. 30, begin ning at 10 a. m., and while It lusts, we will soil one lot of Cajuhrlu, In several col ors,, rejrularly soiling at lBo, at tills sonaatiunni M price of, ynrd (IJmtt 3 yds. to customer) DrasticReductions Amazing Values We Sell Out and- 81 IK Drapery Several fine patterns of ex-llnt qimlltjr silk drapery formerly spiling; tn $1.68, now prlraU for Im nmllatu clnaruuco lit this sensational low price of, yard . . 97c QUIT BUSINESS modity ratea on larpa shipments hare been granted. The effect of the rate making sys tem, as the smaller cities see it, is the concentration of Industry and dis tribution in the larger centers with the burden on the smaller dtie to meet competition by saving on over head and development of raw Tolume. The chambers of commerce of Kla math Falls, Ashland, Medford, Grants Pass. Koseburg, Coquille, Marsh fie Id, North Bend, Re ?d sport. Cottage Grove, Springfield, Albany, Cor va Ufa, Salem. Newport and way points have agreed to attend. The aesalon will be at the Umpqua hotel In Rose burg at 7:80 p. m. on Feb. 7. Called by Sutherlfn The meeting la called by the Buth erlin chamber of commerce "for a discussion of the freight rate situa tion in the fourth section rate case now before the interstate commerce commission, with a hearing set for Monday, March 18, at Portland." The matter before the Interstate commerce commission Is the case in which the Southern Pacific Railroad company, represented by F. W. Gomph, has filed to continue ratea for the transportation of traffic between points tn California, on the one hand, and points In Oregon, Washington and Idaho as described In the application without observing the long-and-short-haul provision of the fourth lectio n of the Inter-state commerce act. The bulletin issued by B. G. King well, Sutherlln banker, secretary of the Sutherlln chamber of commerce, states in part: "Western Oregon, ontaide of Port land, la not oraonfzed to protect it self. Our chamber of commerce .fee In that now Is an opportune time for western Oregon to organise a freight association, and with that thought Id mind we are calling a meeting of all chambers of commerce south of Port land to send one or more delegate.1 to discuss the advisiblllty of forming such en association. .An attorney conversant with the freight situation will address the meeting. The bulletin of the Sutherlln cham ber states that on certain commodities the rates from, to and between cer tain intermediate points are more than 850 per cent greater than between terminals in definite instances. Points such as Medford and Grants Pshp which are nearly midway are peak points In the long-and-Bhort-haul rate making and have rates ever higher than Eugene's. E Frank JenWne, H. E. Wilder, B. B, Brundage, Hugh Rosson, and Jos eph H. Koke were named a commit tee of the Eugene chamber of com merce to confer with a similar com mittee of the Springfield chamber on the proposed consolidation of the two cities.
