EFFORT TO REGAIN
S.P.T
VanDyke and Green Learn
Company Not Planning to
Shift Train From Klamath
Aahland, April 8 (Spl.)
Frank J. Van Dyke, city attor
ney, and G. M. Green were In
San Francisco Monday relative
to the Plaza corner project and
other community matteri.
They contacted varioui army
official! in an effort to procure
war department approval of the
Plaza project. Thii i necessary,
due to the fact priorities must
be procured on the critical ma
terials that will be needed In
the project
A conference was also held
with railroad officials relative
to the possibility of letting train
service from the Rogue River
valley to the south reinstated.
There have been rumors that
trains 19 and 20 might be shift
ed from the Klamath line to the
Ashland line between San Fran
cisco and Portland, but it was
ascertained that this is not be
ing considered officially.
Railroad officials emphasized
that demands on the railroads
because of war efforts are In
creasing Instead of diminishing
and the main hope of reinstate
ment of train service to the
south, to replace the present
bus-train combination service,
lies in the demand created by
the cantonment in this area, ac
cording to G. M. Green.
Agencies were also contacted
with the hope of getting the gas
oline rationing rule lifted from
the Rogue River area. It is con
tended that the same train pow
er facilities and crews required
to bring gasoline shipments to
points north of Dunsmuir can
bring gasoline shipments on to
the Rogue river valley without
any strain on the railroad facili
ties and crews, and that the use
of the state line as a point of
rationing is artificial and unfair.
Gasoline dealers throughout
this area are seeking the elim
ination of the rationing rule as
far as the Rogue River valley is
concerned.

ROAD OIL PLANS
The Jackson county road oil
program will be reduced this
summer, due to shortage of
heavy oil, and lack of rail
transportation for it, County
Engineer Paul B. Rynnlng re
ported today. He said the sit
uation was further complicated
by the uncertainty of delivery.
In lieu of the heavy oiling,
light oil will be placed upon
some of the roads, in an effort
to hold them together, as much
as possible.
The county Is now doing gen
eral repair work to roads
throughout the county, with
some new work being conduct
ed on the upper Applegate near
the Star ranger station.

GRANTS PASS TOO

FOR HOUSING HELP
Classification As Defense
Housing Area Hampered
By Transportation Costs.
Grants Pass, April 8. (Spl.V
Transportation facilities and
costs stand as a barrier in the
way of Grants Pass being classi
fied as a defense housing area,
it appeared Tuesday with an As
sociated Press report on canton
ment problems at Salem. De
fense housing areas secure pri
orities on building and other
supplies.
Delegates representing Wil
lamette valley cities were told
that communities to be included
in defense housing areas must
be able to transport workers to
the cantonment and return at a
maximum of 40 cents per round
trip, which must not consume
more than two hours time.
The cheapest round-trip ticket
offered by bus from Grants Pass
to the cantonment area is $1.10
plus five per cent tax.
Private Cars Used
In contrast, private car own
ers under share-expense plan ap
proved by the PUC have been
charging as low as SO cents for
the round trip of 68 miles.
The bus charge was made at
the high rate, the transit com
pany said when it instituted
service, in order to secure the
support of Pacific Greyhound
company. Officials starting the
camp bus said Greyhound prom
ised not to oppose their permit
if the rates were made higher
than Greyhound s own rates, out
said they would fight a camp bus
proposal if it proposed to cut
below Greyhound's rates.
Only seven or eight persons
are using the bus to camp, and
it may be withdrawn, the 'ocal
stage terminal advised Tuesday.
More than 45 asked for bus
service before the price and time
schedules were established.

days in the county Jail by Jus
tice of the Peace W. R. Cole
