TALK TO SHIPPERS
Freight shippere of Medford and
southern Oregon were invited to
luncheon today at the Hotel Medfwd
to meet and confer with C. O. Cam
eron, vice-president in charge of traf
fic for the Jllinols-CentrU railroad,
who arrived this morning In a privace
oar, accompanied by Mrs. Cameron,
W. D. Stubbs, western traffic man
ager from San Francisco. H. J. Nelspn,
general agent at Portland, and J. 3.
McLaughlin, district traffic agent In
Portland.
Mr. Cameron makes periodical trips
on the average of once a year through
the United States, calling on shippers
C. C. Cameron
and visiting agenta. His itinerary so
far has covered the northwest terri
tory, and will take the party through
California and Texas before returning
to Chicago. Mr. Cameron stated that
throughout his trip, he has noted a
cheering optimism and definite up
turn in business prospects all over
the country, with business men every
where voicing a confidence In "better
times."
Mr. Cameron said:
"The importance of a first-class
railway plant and a capable personnel
to the patrons of a railroad cannot
be overestimated, in my opinion. Here
?s one example, taken from th freight
aide, which' I think will prove my
point:
"As practically everyone ksows, the
time of freight in transit on the rail
roads of the United States has betn
greatly reduced in recent years by
reason of the higher speed and better
handling of trains and added con
venience of schedules. A recent esti
mate gave the value of freight han
dled by the railroads during 1034
as a little more than 930,000,000,000.
At fi per cent, the interest bill on
that amount of investment for a sin
gle day would be approximately 4,
000,000. In other words, If only one
day was saved per average shipment,
the freight patron of the railroad
were at least M. 000,000 the gainers,
and it is likely that the average sav
ing is even greater than that In com
parison with the freight schedules
-fcat were in effect some years ago.
"I mention this merely as one il
lustration of what improved railway
nervlce haa meant, to the patron of
the railroads. X could also tali about
the added safety which has been ac
corded freight as well as passengers.
The railroads of this country, as re
cently announced, went through the
first six month of ttala year without
a single fatality to a passenger In a
train accident. The Illinois Central
system has done even better than
that it has gone through seven
whole years without such an accident
and is now well Into its eighth year.
Between 1024 and 1934 freight claim
payments for loss and damage per
revenue car declined from 05 cents
to 53 cents. In 1934 such payments
amounted tq only 60 cents out of
each 9100 of freight revenue, or 5
cent on each 9100 of value of freight
handled.
"Accomplishments such as those
are the combined result of havipg
both an experienced personnel and
a railway plant in a satisfactory state
of maintenance.
"By the end of this year and, since
the beginning of 1034. we will have
completed overhauling and recondi
tioning 1.400 locomotives, more than
800 passenger care and more than
17,000 freight cars, lang 166 track
mile or new rails, replacing 2.675,000
cross-ties and 1,660 sets of switch
t1es, applying more than 750,000 cu
bic yards of ballast, rebuilding 38
bridges and building 57 . Industrial
sidings and 11 company siding.".
Ex-Senator Improving
PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 29. (AP)

PRAISE FOR BORAH
By FISH AROUSES VETERANS COUNCIL
POLITICAL CIRCLES WIL
New York Republican's Re
marks Doubly Interesting
in View of Own Mention
As Possible. Candidate
WASHINGTON, NOV. 20. (AP)
The praise that Representative Fish
R.. N. T.) accorded Senator Borah
of Idaho aroused speculation today
as to what is in the political winds.
The two men, both mentioned as
possible candidates for the Republi
can presidential nomination, inter
rupted their Thanksgiving holiday
yesterday to talk politics. Afterwards
Fish praised Borah as a man who
could draw more votes In New Eng
land, New York and Pennsylvania
than any other prospect.
Borah Silent.
Borah himself declined to com
ment, telling reporters:
"I haven't anything to ay now.
I may have in a day or two."
The conference led some observers
to believe the two men were bent
on preventing the nomination of an
old guard Republican at next year's
national convention.
In his statement, Fish urged can
didates to enter ' the forthcoming
presidential primaries to prevent a
"handful of oW guard politicians"
from manipulating the selection ol
a nominee "in a backroom."
He was asked if that was what he
and Borah were thinking about.
"It might work, out that way." he
replied.
1 The New Yorker went on to de-.
scribe Borah as a "very able man
who has great popular support In
both the" west and east."
He said Borah "comes nearer rep
resenting the policies of Theodore
Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln than
any other man in the country."
Fish Not Oeclded.
As for himself, Fish said he had
"not decided" whether to be a can
didate. He ha been busy since the
adjournment of congress speaking
on liberalism versus the "old order."
Other support for Borah came
yesterday from Senator Frazler (R.,
N. D.) who said:
"I am quite anxious to see Senator
Borah nominated. He is very popu
lar out in our country. I think he
would have no trouble carrying the
whole west and northwest."
