Mr. Carlson came lo Red

ises Co-operation.
Fruit shippers of the Hugno
Itiver valley, represented by tho
Rogue River Traffic association,
this afternoon wore conferring
with hlKh officials of Hit South
ern Pacific railroad and the Pa
cific Fruit Kxprcss, relative lo the
expeditious ha initios of the esti
mated 4D00 cars of fruit to tie
shipped from this district, the com
ing season, and the adoption of
methods and policies he t ween I lie
transportation organizations and
the shippers.
The Traffic association, in a ses
sion held before the rail confer
once agreed to make a strong flc-
1 niand for a "faster getaway" for
fruit shipments, churning train
shipments were held in the local
yards because of lack of facilities:
that eastern and middle-western
roads had speeded up their fruit
trains to jiaSHenter schedules, and
the Southern Pacific should do
likewist. More switching and cross
ing facilities were also asked.
Other requests were for a hold
ing track for 100 cars, increase of
ice platform facilities, and two
fruit trains per day.
.lames Kdmistnn. chairman of j
the Traffic committee of the Traf
fic association, declared in a let
ter t o ra i I hca ds, t ha t all t hesu
improvements had been promised,
but never fulfilled.
J. H. Mulchay. Portland, assist
ant freight traffic manager of the
Southern Pacific. attending the
conference, issued a statement that
the Southern Pacific was "willing
to co-operate to the fullest extent
with the shippers, and that the aim
of the Southern Pacific was to co
operate to the mutual benefit of
the shippers and the railroad."
Fast Time on Alturas.
Mulchay also said that the Al
turas cut-off "would he as high a
type of railroad construction as the
Cascade line, suitable for fast
. .
travel." He said advices rece
today by him indicated the Hue
would not bo ready for traffic be
fore September 1st, and probably
not available to handle t he fruit
business of the Rogue River val
ley before next season, so a few
test shipments might bo routed
over the Alturas line this year. He
said the operation of the Alt uras
eiit -fif f for fruit consignments I
would necessitate the establish-
nient of re-icing stations at Klani-
alh Kails.
He assured the shippers that the
Alturas line would assure southern
Oregon fruit shipments rapid tran
sit, once the construction and other
delays- were overcome.
Chairman IMmfston nf the traf
fic committee told in his proposals
that cars were held in I he local
yards from HI to 1 hours, and
that t lie congestion at Rose vi He
and Davis, Cu.. further delayed
valley fruit, tending to cause the
fruit to arrive in eastern markets
at a ripe and near-ripe condition.
He further held that t he rapid
handling of local fruit hinged up
on more Icing facilities, and that
steps should be taken for the con-
ff!mMntl on Pn Hlx
