5. P. DECISION
GRADE CROSSING
Tho letter of E. L. King, superin
tendent of tho Southern Pacific rail
rouil, 'telling that tho j-ullroud la op
posed to either the building of a
Sixth street subway, or even a grade
crossing ut Sixth street, but describ
ing tho concessions the railroad will
make in the way of -other improve
ileitis agreed on during tlio visit und
conference hero last week between
the superintendent und Hen Day,
Southern Pucific attorney, und the
mayor and city council, was reud by
Mayor Gnddis at the council meeting
lust night.
After quite a discussion, tho coun
cil took no action, but practically do
clded to await tho results of chunges
and Improvements the Southern Pa
eific will soon begin and complete at
a cost of about $50,000, und which it
is promised will reduce tho blockad
ing of Main street Jby freight trains
10 a iiiiiiimum.y ueroro nodding
whether to go ahead and petition tho
state public service commission to
grant either a subway or grade
crossing.
In tho meantime the council will
take steps to ascertain tho approxi
mate cost of building a subway
which tho railroad claims would en-
tall an expenditure of about $100,000
over halt of which expense would
have to be borne by the city.
Tho southern Pacific's nosition. as
outlined in the superintendent's let
ters is ns follows:
Further replying to your letter April
5th and the resolution adopted by tho
city council of Medford on April 3rd
and particularly referring to our meet
ing on this date at Medford with you
and members of the city council": We
are prepared to recommend to tho
management of the Southern Pacific
company changes in the yards and
station grounds at Medford in line
with the following:
(1) Section I of the resolution
adopted by the city council relates to
the construction of a subway at Sixth
street. This proposition is, In our
judgment too far in advance of the
necessities of tho situation to justify
the expenditure by the city and by the
company of approximately $100,000
which would be required to make the
improvement. Nor can we recommend
that a grade crossing be established
across the station grounds at Sixth
street. Such crossing would be hut
300 feet from the present crossing at
Main street. It would be blocked by
practically all passenger traius stop
ping at the station. It would make
two crossings very close togethor
with result that as the c;iy grows
toward the north demands would un
doubtedly come for an additional
crossing to be opened north of the
station.
With the rearrangement of freight
track facilities, as hereinafter outlined
the congestion that has occurred In
the past at the Main street crossing
will be almost entirely removed, there
by permitting the Main street cross
ing to carry all of the public travel.
Considering the future, needs of the
city, if any additional grade crossing
Is required it should, in our judgment
he at Fourth street, thereby giving
free access across the station grounds
at about tho same distance on bach
sido of the station building.
We think you will agrco with us
that no grade crossing should bo
established where it can possibly bo
avoided and that grade crossings
should be so spaced as to require as
few as possible. Tho Southern Pacific
company in the past few years has ex
pended many thousands of dollars, In
conjunction with the state highway
commission, to eliminate grade cross
ings, in conjunction with the state
highway commission, to ellmlnato
grade crossings between Ashland and
Portland and In the face of such
policy It would seem to be njost-un-
widu to esiauiisu new ones, especially
at intervals of 300 feet
(2) The suggestion that all pass
ing tracks between Eighth street and
Jackson street, be removed is not
feasible. The two tracks In front of
the station used for passenger trains
are essential and the other two tracks
are Indispensable for use In the serv
ing of existing industries.
(3) Your suggestion that the
tracks heretofore used by the Rogue
River Valley Railroad Co. north of
Main street be removed from the stn
tlon reservation is, we believe, well
taken. The Rogue River Valley com
pany has lailed to maintain these
track in projier manner resulting in
the creation of an unsightly condition.
We will recommend that tho tracks
be removed.
(4) The industry track mentioned
In Section 4 of the council's resolution
and which Is there referred to as a
"house track" must remain in Its pres
ent location in order to permit of con
venient and economical operation of
the yard.
(5) No commitment can be made
with reference to further extension of
Industry tracks as the company must
be free to Berve Industries located
within Its yards.
(6) The suggestion,, contained In
section 6 of the cojn$llii resolution
with respect to tfcnremoval of two
old warehouses between Sixth and
.Main streets will receive favorablo
recommendation These warehouses
are located on the railroad property
under leases which require advance
nntlco of cancellation and the removal
of the warehouses can be accomplish
ed only by following the procedure
outlined In the leases.
(7) With respect to Section 7 of
the council's resolution, recommenda
tion will bo made that new track of
sufficient capacity to accommodate all i
freight trains bo constructed to tho
south of tho cold storngo plant and
that the water tank now located near
Main street be moved to tho lucaiiuu
of the proposed now track.
(S) In regard to Suction 8 of the
council's resolution, recommendation
will ulso be made that a similar track
to accommodate freight trains bo con
structed at Crater Lake Junction with
water facilities at that location to ac
commodate southbound locomotives.
It's this now construction, both to the
north and tho south, that will acorn
modato freight trains so ns to ellmln
ato tho annoyance that has heretofore
been occasioned by tho blocking of
crossings in the center of tho city.
(9) In regard to Soctlon 9 of tho
council's resolution, which relates to
future improvements on tho station
reservation west of its main track and
between Main street and Third streot,
this property was acquired for rail
road development and must be retain
ed for that purpose, it follows, how
ever, that any structure built upon
that property must necessarily con
form to tho building codo und fire
code of the city.
(1) With respect to removal of the
section houso now located immediate
ly north of the express office on Front
street recommendation will he made
that the section houso be moved to
other property now owned by the com
pany at 8OD10 distance north of Jack
son stroot and that the space now oc
cupied by tho section house he Im
proved so ns to permit access there
over by vehicles meeting southbound
trains. In making this change It will
no doubt be feasible to preserve the
major portion of the trocs now grow
ing on or around the section house
yard.
In regard to the other suggestion In
SectlonlO of the council's resolution
with respect to lots owned by the city,
it is our opinion that tho station
grounds are now ample in size, an
that the acquirement of additional pro
perty by the company could not be
justified. Consideration has been
given to possible exchange of the
city's property nlong Front street for
other property owned by the company
but the property now owned by the
company Is considered more desirable

for future use of tho company than
that which tho city has to offer in ox
change. (11) With respect to Section 11 of
the council's resolution in regard to
switching between Jackson and Kighth
streets, it would not bo practicable to
comply therewith. The Industries lo
cated In that zone are entitled to ser
vice und a duty 13 imposed upon tho
company to furnish the service.
The foregoing recommendations
which we aro prepared to niiiko
promptly will involve a total expendi
ture of approximately fifty thousand
dollars. In reaching the conclusion to
make these recommendations we have
attempted to cooperate as fully as pos
sible in carrying out the desires of the
city and wo feel that If tho recom
mendations aro approved the city
should bo quite willing to allow thoso
suggestions not recommended to stand
in abeyance. Very truly yours,

Five Years Aro C-T-C
Cords Were Planned
THE MEN who came out to the northwest to
build C-T-C Cords looked forward five years
to the production of a superior tire. The design,
compounding and construction of C-T-C's arc the
work of master-tire builders, who for upwards of
a quarter-century had been building the nation's
finest tires for other manufacturers.
Is it surprising, then, that these men could produce -veil
a better tire over their own names when placed in the
most improved tire-building plant in America, and sur
rounded with the latest developments in machinery and
the best materials that could be assembled ?
C-T-C Cords provide their own answer. Look them over,
examine them carefully, measure them up against other
cord tires. Then give them the grinding test of miles
more miles and more miles under the extreme trial of
carrying 30 less inflation than insisted upon for ordinary
cords. Such a test will prove the unequalcd stamina of
C-T-C Cords and yet give you greater riding comfort and
educed upkeep expense on your car.
C-T-C Cords 30x3Yi to 35x5; Fabrics 30x3 and
30x3Y2 only. C-T-C Inner Tubes arc the Acorcs,
strongest standard tubes cn the market.
