transportation chief Joseph B.
Eastman. Eastman has extraor
dinary power over the move
ment of railroad traffic.
Boatner quoted a letter from
President J. J. Pelley of the
Association of American Rail
roads saying the Southern Pa
cific (which withdrew passenger
service between Grants Pass
and the California city January
12) is faced with an acute sit
uation and finds It necessary to
eliminate passenger mileage
wherever possible.
The city of Medford, Jackson
county and the Jackson County
Chamber of Commerce Joined
in the formal protest against re
moval of the trains until it could
be determined by parties other
than the Southern Pacific com
pany whether military necessity
dictated service curtailment or
whether the railroad was using
this as an excuse to carry out a
plan based solely on its own
wishes. The protest asked the
interstate commerce commission
to issue an order to desist until
reasons for the train removal
could be determined. It was al
ways emphasized there was no
intention to interfere- with war
needs. The trains were discon
tinued January 11.
It was Indicated here that all
the protestants, including Ash
land, Grants Pass and Josephine
county, would now accept the
move as one dictated by military
needs. It - was Indicated also,
however, that the Southern Pa
ciflc would be held to its pledge
to restore the trains when the
present military emergency has
passed.
