The following message was sent July
10. 1922. ty the .Medtord chamber of
. commerce to C. C. McChord, secretary
of the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion, Washington, D. C:
Dear sir: Business interests in this
community have been studying effect
enforcement recent Southern Pacific
divorcement on this community and
western Oregon in general.
Union Pacific have publicly announc
cl their desire to purchase the Central
Pacific and have Intimated certain
things would be done in event property
of Central Pacific came under their
control.
We have listened to their represen
tatives and have also called on the
representatives of the Southern Pacific
to- explain the matter from their stand
point. Have also called before the;
board of directors of the Medford
chamber of commerce representative
business men and shippers and we find i
the unanimous opinion is that the I
separation Central Pacific and South-1
ern Pacific lines would have mosti
harmful effect on this territory.
The Central Pacific as we under
stand has been operated as one united
line with the Southern Pacific for the
Iiast forty years and forms a compet
ing route from western Oregon to all
eastern and southern territory.
It is our opinion that if the Central
Pacific Is taken from the Southern Pa
cific it will result in weakening both
properties and If the Central Pacific Ib
owned or controlled by the Union Pa
cific in any way whatsoever It will
result In resorting conditions that ex
isted during the Harriman merger and
will result In taking away from us a
competing route and nowhere will the
results bebetter explained than In the
case of H. D. Glle and Company, No.
3589 decided by Interstate Commerce
Commission January 1912, reported 22
I. C. C.
Investigation of that case shows
clearly to have existed through domi
nation of transportation Interests. .
The supreme court's decision we
understand to have been based on the
Sherman Anti-Trust Law passed In
1890 and since that time conditions
have materially changed as per Trans
portation Act of 1920 directing the
commission to arrange a plan of con
solidation of railroads, and It was with'
feeling of satisfaction that we ob
served the commission's report of
August, 1921 wherein tentatively the
commission prescribes that the South
ern Pacific and the Central Pacific
Bhall continue as one system as In the
past and further the sound ground
upon which commission have acted,
namely, that you have taught in your
plan to minimize dismemberment of
existing line of systems. Our investi
gation develops what we understand
to be an act that Interstate Commerce
Commission now has power with
which to permit Southern Pacific and
Central Pacific lines to consolidate
nnd In other ways to authorize their
continued common ownership and con
trol. Therefore:
We have resolved to apprive you of
our conclusions, namely
First: That It is the unanimous opin
ion of business nnd shipping Interests
of this community and we observe
from the press reports that the busi
ness interests In the territory served
by the Southern Pacific In western and
southern Oregon are strongly opposed
to the separation of these lines.
Second: That we Join In the recom
mendation and will support continued
existence of the Southern Pacific and
Central Pacific as a common property
and
Third: We will support all measures
to the end that separation of these
lines will not, be permitted, and we
respectfully suggest that the commis
sion take action In accord with the
authority extended to them by the
HIGH PRAISE FOR
ITER L.
Crater !ake in one of the most won
derful spots of scenic beauty in
North Aniericn, In the opinion of
(iordon Le, head of the automotive
division of the department of com
ment in Washington, D. C., who la
a Portland visitor, registered at the
Multnomah hotel. The right kind of
advertising would bring tourists
from all over the world here bo fast
that they could not be accommodated,
according to Mr. Le, who says that
the sfght-neeing public has yet to be
convinced that trater Lake Is all that
it is pictured. There must be some
way thought up to satisfy their minds
that the lake and the park are all
they are purported to be, he said. The
beauty of the place nnd the color
ing of the lake are things Mr. Lee
believes he will never forget and they
are the things which have the latent
power to bring thousands of tourists
from this country and abroad to Ore
gon every year. There is nothing Jike
it in this country or any other, he
said, and he intimated that many
Oregonlans with whom he has talked
know little or 'nothing of this beauty
spot, right at their door, Mr. Lee Is
making an extensive tour of the
United States. While in the city he
spoke before the Ad club and has ar
ranged a meeting with the Automo
bile Dealers' association. Portland
Oregonian.
PREPARE FOR GREAT
DAT OF GOD IS THE
I
"We are living on the threshold of
eternity, the long dark night of sin
is nearly ended, and the break of
eternal morn is already upon us.
Make haste, do not delay. Christ
Standeth at the door of your heart,
pleading for admittance. 5le wants
you to commit your case to him. He
is the great lawyer. Hurry! Hurry!!
Do not wait."
Withthese words Evangelist T. L.
Thuemler appealed to his audience at
the big tent last night to prepare
for the great day of God, after re
minding them that for more than 70
years the Judgment has been In pro
gress in Heaven nnd soon the work
will be finished, nnd then Christ will
come. Ho said that when this work
Is completed the fate of mankind will I
not have another chnnce to escape
the punishment of the wicked.
