MINIS TO Your Dollar Never Bought More Value FRUIT T Than Tomorrow at Mann's $ Day AS pa on TCTwrr RAFFIC ARGUMENT Rail Crossings at Eighth ; and Fourth Streets Would Cut-Yard Efficiency, Is , Claim. ; Tho testimony of F. V. Cnntrell, trainmaster, took up moHt of this; forenoon'n hphhIoi, of the Htate pun- ' lie service cnmmiHKiun hearing at the clly hnll on the petition of the city of Moilfonl to npon Fourth ; and Kighth Htri'dH over tho South ei n Purine railroad tnukH on ! ground 8 tho eroasingH are neccn- , sury to meet tho growing traffic needs of the rlty. Mr. Cantrell'H toHtlmony wont into technical detail concerning ; tho local froiglit yards and method of car operation therein, especially during the fruit shipping season. His slatemcntH were used as foun dation for contention that the opening of Kighth street would re duce tho efficiency of handling fruit and other freight in Medl'onl from lid to 30 per cent. t'nrlc (in KUiml J. l Carlo, passenger and froiglit ngent, told th q conimiMsiouors of tho total fruit' shipments leaving Medford and declared lie thought two additional street crossings were not necessary at this time, lie said he had not nut iced, traffic congestion as a rosult of the pres ent arrangement. Tho claim was not forth hy Oskar T. Borgnor, manager of tho Modford loo imd Cold ' Htomgo company , that the opening of Klghlh street would result In con sidorahlo Inconvenience to his com pany, lie bused the claim on tho contention of the Southern 1'acific company that off Iriency- would he reduced hy tho opening., Ho snid this would moan more trouble fr the railroad to bring refrigerator cars to tho storage company for Jclng. Xeff Denies Part Among tho early witnesses for tho city of Medford-this forenoon was Porter J. N'off who explained tho city had mtulo no agreement with tho railroad to refrain from asking for other crossings f .Sixth street would he opened. Mr. Nol'l" declared the city hud. agreed to ask for no further -crossings until tho conditions mado .them neces sary. Ho felt they were now a need to -provide for growing traffic needs. Yesterday afternoon A. AW I'M pes told tho commission opening oft tho streets was advised by Jacob Crnne, Chicago, planning engineer, when ho mndn a survey of Med- i ford a year ago. Tho opening of J Kighth street would particularly fit in with tho plans for a civic, center nround tho city park, bounded on one side hy that street, j Mr. Pipes testified tho fruit pack-1 Ing houses, located on Kir street, would gradually have to find new ; locations preferably farther south, Tho possibility of new rail road yards on a GO -acre tract near the south city limits was touched upon In the testimony as a logical location for fruit packing houses. No Definite Action There has been no doflnite action tnkon In connoctlon with tho proposed yurdn and Mr. Pipes was asked if he. had personul in terest In such proposition. Ho said ho had been upproached by parties to acquire an interest In tho tract but gave no favorable con sideration. The fire department would find th opening of Fourth Htreet a great aid in reaching the west side of the city, Fire Chief Koy K 1 1 toll testified. While tho fire station Is locnted on Third street, blind cor nel's make It lnfeuHlhlc for tho fire trucks to uso tho crossing when summoned to west Medford. To answer calls in that section of tho City, tho trucks use Hlxth street, t. lK'nlcs Yanl mwtritiont .While ho said he had mudo no study of the local railroad yards, D. T. McDonnugh, of tho city (muti neer's office and formerly connect ed with eastern railroads, testified -tho opening of Kighth street would tiot Impair switching service or Injure tho railroad service. Ho ivas given a lengthy crostt exami nation by Paul Farrens, attorney for the Southern Pacific. County Judge Alex H par row told tho commlsslonera of plans to build the now county court house on the west side mid said tho street openings Would aid auto traffic. Oeorgo Portor, council man, offered similar- testimony. Ted Ooltnuer of - tho Gold Hunt Creamery, declared the opening or Fourth street would physically benefit his concern. Ho wns asked by the railroad counsel that If Fourth street would ho such benefit, would he be ad verse to the closing of Third street, '' "As far as I um concerned, thai would be alright," he laughingly 'replied. Tho hearing, which attracted "cjulto a number of railroad repre sentatives, was expected to be eon 'eluded today. 4 PRODUCTION ON COAST HUATTLE, Jim. JO.
