COMING SUNDAY HOOT GIBSON in "SURE FIRE " companies such full, convenient and ready access to the buy and terminal facilities thereon that each company will be ,able freely to compete with the other, to serve public efficiently and to accomplish the purpose of the IcglHlation under which it wus con structed. And a like course'Should be pursued In .dealing with tho lines extending from San Francisco Bay to Sacramento and Portland, Oregon.' "Operation of the Central Pa cific a's an independent line would afford two competing railroads be tween San Francisco and Portland through Joint and common use of separately owned tracks. Such an ar rangement is In pructlcal operation between Portland and Seattle, where three railroads are using the same tracks. It would not mean increase In rates or less service, but 'would reason Just to the contrnry. , "The possibility of further railroad construction through Eastern Oregon and competing lines between Oregon and California should be carefully studied und considered In the inter est of state development." The following is a statement by President Sproule of the Southern Pacific railroad on Pacific railroad acts: "The Pacific railroad acts are re ferred to by Mr. Gray in his recent statement as to the attitude of the Union Pacific on the supreme court decision in the Southern Pacific-Cen tral Pacific case and in which he ex presses the desire of the Union Pa cific to ncqulra the Central Pacific. That desire in udvanced with tho sug gestion that since the Dillon Pacific and Central Pacific were constructed under the Pacific railroad act3, these acts require a continuous line. The fact is congress contemplated that the through line might be oper ated in separate .ownership by two companies for congress by the act of May 6th, 1870, fixed the common terminus and point of junction of Union Pacific with Central Pacific at a point near the station at' Ogden within the limits of Hue sections of land described In the act, and au thorized the two companies to enter upon and possess these lands In equal snares. ' , ' The Pacific railroad acts require simply that the line from Omaha to Ogden and front Ogden to San Fran cisco be operated is a physically con nected line, not in the sense of own ership, but as a matter of not break ing the line by putting obstacles in the way which would prevent unob structed movement. They were to bo operated without discrimination of one road against the other, no mat ter who operated them. When the Union Pacific system in Mr. Harri man'8 time got control of the South ern Pacific the position of the Cen tral Pacific was unchanged. The traffic was handled during that con trol and it has been handled since that control ended. It is to be noted that when Mr. Harriman controlled both Union Pa cific and Southern Pacific he never attempted to take away the Central Pacific portion of the Central Pacific or the Central Pacific portion of the Southern Pacific from the latter and attach it to the Union Pacific. Tht Pacific railroad acts were intended to provide for that kind of operation which the laws have since made uni versal. These were the days before shippers enjoyed the right to route their freight. The railroads at that fine designated the routing. The present long distance ticketing too, was largely unknown. Today on the contrary, every shipper routes his freight over the line he designates, requires a bill of lading showing that routing and it is given him without question. This the law requires and it could not be withheld oven if the railroads wiohed to withhold It. Re member, however, the court did not Justify its recent decision by reference to the Pacific railroad acts, neither did the court take cognizance of the transportation act of 1920. The de cision was expressly placed upon the court's construction of the Sherman anti-trust act and that aione. That tho Southern Pacific has at all tides performed its duties and obli gations under trie Pacific rai'roads acts was acknowledged by the Union Pacific officials in their testimony in court. Faith has been kept with the Union Pacific, the government and tho people. As to the closing of the gateway, that Is a mere figure of speech! The laws have robbed any rairoad of the power to close a gate way. The only control a railroad has ove rits traffic is the moral con trol that Hprlngs from tho good will and favor of the shipper or traveler who uses the railroad. ' The South ern Pacific aa now constituted could not of its own motion divert a ton ot freight or one passenger from the Union Pacific neither could the Union Pacific of its own motion, only the shipper or passenger can dot It. The same policies and public neods and legal- requirements which have obtained compliance with the terms OL lite rttcinc "lauiuau ui;io uuniift the past fifty years will enforce com pliance during the years to come. The flow ot traffic over all lines " by any route is fre arid open . wherever the tariff rates are In effect as tho law requires. x Hence the suggestion that In order to comply with-the Pacific Railroads act the Central Pacific must be torn front the Southern Pacific is without mai-lt anil nmoninllv Ul with HtlA lft- gard to teh public Interest. The pub lic are Interested in the best railway service given them with the'greatest convenience to them. The puDlic : hiii'a unfiling- tn Grain hv forcing the Southern Pacific into two when the -lines as a unit are best fitted for the service required.
