MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUXE, ilEDFOKD, OREGON. WEDNESDAY, JUNE in, 1035. PAGE THREE EFFECTIY 1SI Utilities Commissioner Says New Rates Will Conform With the Recently Re duced Interstate Rates SALEM, June 10. (AP) The order which adjusts railroad rate on ship ments at rraln and grain products within Oregon, declared to be slightly Increased over the present charges, was signed today by public utilities commissioner, Prank C. McColloch. The new charges become effective on July 1. "While on paper it appears most of the new tariffs are higher than previously, made so to conform to the new Interstate rates which were reduced recently, they are actually less, for two reasons," McColloch stated In announcing the order. These reasons are: "First, because grain had been sold on the basis of the Portland market less the cost of f rel g h t . Th Is cost was based on the then higher Inter state rates. "Second, the commissioner has suspended the switching charges made within transit areas. The rates then will be on the basis of point to point shipments, permitting stop overs for milling or storage." Rates on shipments within Ore gon have been less the past four years than the interstate rates, but the new order will make both uniform eliminating possibility of confusion and probable legal action, It was ex plained. Rates prescribed to Portland from points In Oregon west and southeast of Pendleton and from points on the Burns and Homestead branches are all Increased with the exception of The Dalles, but lower than the pres ent Interstate rates with the excep tion of La Grande and Huntington, the order stated. The rateB on the basis of cents per hundred pounds from the points axe as follows: Arlington 16.5, Baker 36.5, Bend 24, Condon 21.5, Enterprise 29, Hunt lngton 30, LaGrande 36, The Dalles 10.5. Umatilla 17.5, Wasco 17. Pen dleton 18.5. Riverside 34, and Wal Iowa 29. To and from points south of Port land, the order finds as reasonable "one factor through rates," the rates prescribed to Portland plus the fol lowing arbitrages: Salem 4, Albany 5.5, Corvallls 6, Tillamook and Eugene 7, Cottage Grove 7.5, Cushman 9.5, Roseburg and Coqullle 10, Grants Pass 14, Med ford and Klamath Falls 14.5. "These arbitrarles applied In con Junction with the prescribed rates to Portland on traffic moving intrastate within Oregon results generally in Increases over the present Intrastate scale of rates, and reductions In all cases In interstate rates." All rates were set as maximums, lower charges being permitted in points where competition necessitates such lowering.

McGeer blamed the bloody battle on communist actlvl- l ny Wilson, Just a little studio sten- ORrapnrr irom Minneapolis, una mi Br Bobbin Coons HOLLYWOOD It was on a June day like those Hollywood writes home about that Gregory LaCava, looking for a certain type of girl to play a leading role In a new picture, sichted a slight, brown-haired miss wnlklng over to lunch at the studio restaurant. Three years ago this month Dor- ties. Nearly a thousand striking long-1 shoremen, their womenfolk and sym- pathlzers fought with sticks and stones against the tear gas and clubs of the Royal Canadian mounted po-' lice and Vancouver officers when strikers marched on Ballantyne pier in defiance of a police ruling. Eight policemen and nine civilians required hospital treatment for In juries while many others were less seriously hurt. "The brazenness of this open dec laration of war is unparalleled in the history of Vancouver," the mayor said In a statement In whtch he promised the port would be kept open and order maintained. The attack was deliberately made on a Dominion government dock to emphasize the rebellious nature of the activity.' Refused permission to plead with members of other unions to stop working on the dock. 800 longshore men formed In a mass parade on the dock. The mayor said they were headed by a man supposedly blind carrying a Union Jack, and World war veterans were used as a shield. The demonstrators were met by an attack of tear gas and clubs from the royal mounted when they march ed on the pier. The rioting followed and spread throughout nearby streets as other police and longshore sympathizers joined the fray. GRAVEL PIT GOLD Fred Barneburg. farmer of the Bear Creek district south of. this city, to day sought ways and means to pro cure the gold he claims is being cleaned from gravel sold the county after It Is washed. Barneburg con ferred with the district attorney this morning relative to his legal rights. and will Investigate further. Barneburg leased the county a por tion of his land for the extraction of gravel at the rate of 6 cents per yard. He now says the workers are now extracting gold also. "I don't know how much they are getting, but it Is something." Barne burg said this morning. "There is color In the dtrt after the grave Is washed." Barneburg takes the position that he only leased the county the gravel rights, not the mineral rights."

Comparison with 1934. said the publication, shows that the gain In May was the smallest for any month this year as against the corresponding period of 1934. from screen-struck, took that lunch ward walk which was to land her in pictures. To see her three years later, after some success has come her way. Is to be Impressed anew with the level head that alts on the Wilson shoul ders. She seems less screen-struck today than she did then when she waa a timid, wholesome youngster who suddenly found herself with ft wholly unexpected screen career be fore her. She is equally wholesome, but more poised and self-assured, naturally. Saw Her Star Wane "Looking back on it," she says. "I wouldn't change a minute of those three years. I suppose I've made mis takes, and I know I've been worried about decisions many times but when you're doing a thing it always seems the best thing to do at the time." For a time Dorothy thought her screen career would go a-glimmerlng That waa when R-K-O. the studio that discovered her for LaCava'a "Age of Consent," released her after giving her a few minor roles in "westerns." "I knew then, although It hurt, that It was the best thing that could happen to me," she declares. And she made up her mind then that if picture roles did not come, she would not let It break her heart. But pictures did not forget her, She gave an unusual performance In "The White Parade." played opposite George O'Brien In ""hen a Man's a Man." and recently did the heroine with Will Rogers In "In Old Ken tucky." Between pictures she made her stage debut In "Merrily We Roll Along" and before the five-week run was over she was sufficiently non chalant about It to be ahle to spot people she knew In the audience! Old Friends Still Count One of the unusual things about the girl Is the way she clings to old friends. She can tell you where each of the girls that used to pound type writers with her Is now, which have married, which have children, which are still working and where. She shares an apartment with Joan St. Oegger. an Intelligent young woman who Is halr-dresser on the . Warner lot, and who shares Dorothy's Inter est In books and the beach. She knows few movie people among the players, that Is and she does not "go around much." Candid ly, she thinks many of the players are interesting Individually but "In a crowd they're likely to be 'phonies' putting on an act, telling each other how grand they look, and then whispering aside to someone else how awful that girl looks!" So she doesn't like parties. She still hopes with her fingers crossed to be a bigger success in pictures. Averaging about four pic tures a year, she has been able to make between $8,000 and $8,000 an- nually "which Is plenty," she says, i YOUTH FOUND IN At first believed to be the victim of a hit-and-run driver, Ted Porter. 19. was picked up on the Pacific highway Just south of the fair grounds between 12 and 1 o'clock this morning, unconscious, and rushed to the Sacred Heart hospital, where an examination revealed no traces of cuts, broken bones or even bruises. Porter was unconscious for several hours, and when he finally came to could not give a clear picture of what had happened to him. He Is be lieved to be suffering from delusions, a condition brought about by a clow on the head received some time ago while he was In the state of Wash ington. Young Porter told hospital authorities today that "monsters" had been following him and thai a pass ing automobile had frightened them away. He is being held under ob servation while an effort Is being made by the state police to contact his family, believed to be living In Port Angeles. Wash. His parents formerly lived on Louis street In Medford but moved away some time ago. Porter has been stay ing with friends In this city. TWICE A DAY KODAK FILM FINISHING SERVICE Bring Your Fllm Here!
