ALTURAS CUT-OFF
ALL OREGON NEEDS
PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 22.(P)
Argument that the Alturas cutoff,
which the Southern Pacific com
pany is constructing between Klam
ath .Falls, Ore., and Alturas, Cal.,
will afford eastward outlet for cen
tral Oregon, was offered to the
fliterstate commerce commission in
the hearing today on the state pub
lic service commission's applica
tion for a cross-state line. "
F. L. BurkhaUer, assistant gen
eral manager of the Southern Pa
cific, testified today, following
(Jeorge V. Boschke, chief engineer,
who. was on the stand hit eyestcr
day; The Alturaa cutoff, said Mr.
BurkhaUer, which is a fact, not a
conjecture, will prove Just as much
of a saving us any. other line that
might, be built.
The difference In actual mileage
does not amount to as much as
the difference in time, he declar
ed, adding thnL the trn nsconti
nental lines are equipped now to
give fast service from the Pacific
coast. The Southern Pacific. Santa
Fe and Northern Pacific all take
their f rti it t rai n s into Ch i ca go
about the same time, arriving e"arly
in the morning. In time for the
day's market, he said.
He made a general comparison
of benefits to be derived from the
Alluras and the proposed cross
state line.
In his testimony late yesterday,
Mr. Boschke said the Klamath-AI-turas
line would afford a short out
let eastward, and that the South
ern Pacific company was entitled
to traffic which would go to the
proposed line from Crane to Lake
Crescent.
The Klamath-Alluras line, he
said, would cost $6,000,000. The
firm 12 miles out of Klamath Fnll

nnd conlraeu for the
remoinin;

about the
He said the Southern I'aelfic also
had spent S2.4iiO.fiOO in rehnhilj
taling the line north from Wen
dell t., lo Lakeview. Ore.
Mr. Burkhalter slated that J. P.
Newell, consulting engineer of the
public service commission, hi esti.
uniting savings which would result
from operation of a cross state
line had failed to take into consid
eral ion Ihe need of moving empty
cars to points of originating traf
fic. He contended that the typ or
cars needed for transportation
eastward of products were not in
the vicinity of the line, but In
California.
He expressed fll'i belief that a
railroad should . not be forced to
build In a territory: not tributary
to Its own established .line.
Commissioner Frank MeNanamv
Interrupted .with the remark;
"Then, that means that other roads
should be forced to build these
roaaH nut they should not In any
way interfere with any traffic you
may have had out of that terri
tory." Tho, witness und .the commis
sioner got into a discussion of snow
In the CascHdes and th Sierras.
Mr. llurkhalter remarked that his
road built "mud sheds" rather
than "snow sheds" In the Cascade
to protect from slides.
15. C, Manson, superintendent of
tho Idaho division, Oregon Hhort
line, told the commission that serv
ice over the proposed line could
not canal that now being given
over the Improved present lines,
Hu gave detailed flgurex on the
cost and upkeep of the proposed
crosH-state route.
Mr. Marino n gave a history of his
line, telling of Its improvement
from slnKle-track roadbeds to gravel-ballasted
double trackfi, and
from wooden to steel bridges. He
aid travel was faster on the Im
proved road than it would be over
