Railroad News
A revival of interest in Oregon's railroad picture
as a part of greatly accelerated service over the
hodge-podge of lines which make, up the so-called
"Great Northern line to California," is foretold in a
recent article by Richard L. Neuberger in The Ore
gonian. THE article holds more than passing interest for
this portion of southern Oregon as there is a pos
sibility it may have some connection with the recent
renewal of rumors here that a railroad line is being
planned to connect the Great Northern near Klamath
Falls with the Rogue River valley and possible ex
tension westward to a seaport.
e e a a o
Neuberger, discussing the stepping up of service
over the north and south route, intimates the decision
was probably reached when three railroad presidents,
F. J. Gavin of the Great Northern; Fred G. Gurley of
the Santa Fe and Frederick B, Whitman of the West
era Pacific, met a few months ago and "without fan
fare or publicity" traveled from Wishram, Wash., to
Keddie, Cal., on the main line of the Western Pacific.
Ncyie of the officials had ever been over the entire
route before.
TTHE present set-up permits funneling of freight to
Wishram from such points as Spokane in the east
ern part of Washington over the Spokane, Portland
and Seattle line ; from as far north and west as Van
couver, B. C., and Everett, Seattle and other Washing
ton coast towns over the Union Pacific, Great North
ern and Northern Pacific.
From Wishram the haul would be over the Oregon
Trunk Line and S.P.&S. to Bend, Ore., thence by
Great Northern to Bieber, Cal., and on southward by
way of the Western Pacific to Stockton and San
Francisco and via Santa Fe to Barstow, Los Angeles
and San Diego, with of course, connections to the
east.
OPEEDING up of freight service over the "back
door" route to California holds much significance
for Washington shippers, according to the Seattle
Post Intelligencer which points out that the announce
ment of a full day's reduction in freight time between
Seattle and California points is "one of the most sig
nificant to be made by a railroad or combination of
railroads in Seattle in many years."
It is also surmised that considerable rivalry for
coastal tonnage may materialize with resultant bene
fits to shippers.
e e e
DASSENGER service is presently provided only on
the section between Wishram and Bend but ru
mors here have it that passenger service may be in
stituted on the line south of Klamath Falls. Neuberger
states that talk in Seattle is to the effect that eventu
ally passenger service will be provided from Wish
ram to Keddie and that such service might even in
clude the Great Northern's luxurious Empire Builder.
DOGUE valley shippers and train travelers have
realized ever since the Southern Pacific company
moved its main line traffic to the other side of the
mountains that the only hope for better service in and
out of here is the construction of a competing line east
from Medford andor Grants Pass.
If the Great Northern,
quire the former raciric and Eastern which now
serves the Medford corporation as a logging road far
into the country east of Butte Falls, it would have a
substantial nucleus for such a western link with the
rich Rogue valley. Extension of the line into the
Illinois valley and thence to
fantastic a dream for there
in all that region.

AMEBIASIS IS
Dysentery is a name given to
a number of disorders marked
bv inflammation of the intes
tines, especial
ly of the large
intestine (co
lon), pain in
the abdomen
and diarrhea
with more or
less mucus and
blood in the
stools. The
presence of
blood distin
guishes dysen
tery from
diarrhea.
Dyse n t e r y
may be bacil-
or. drady
lary (due to a germ known as
Shiga's bacillus because a Jap
anese named Shiga first isolated
the germ during an epidemic of
dysentery in Japan in 1808). For
merly this type of dysentery was
the usual type in America: at
least one. gets this impression
from the medical literature of
the nineteenth century.
The most common type of
dysentery throughout the United
States and Canada, not to men
tion Mexico and the subtropical
Central American and tropical
South American countries, is
amebic today, owing to the
steadily increasing travel or
traffic between these countries.
Both bacillary and amebic dys
entery (amebiasis) are water
borne diseases in most cases, al
though either kind of dysentery
may be contracted in other ways,
such as contact or association
with carriers (persons who have
or recently have had the disease);
contamination of one food or
drink by a cook, waiter or other
person who handles the food or
drink with unclean hands; or by
pollution of food by flies, cock
roaches, mice, rats that may con
vey the infection from anywhere
in the vicinity djrectly to the
exposed food.
As mentioned in an article
published here, the diagnosis of
dysentery in any case can be
made only by microscopic isola
tion of Shiga's bacillus or the
ameba (called Endamoeba his
tolytica) from the intestinal dis
charge and identification of the
organism by scientific tests.
Far from being prevalent only
In the tropics, as we formerly
thought, a medic dysentery (or
amebic or ulcerative colitis) is
now widespread throughout the
continent. The parasite can sur
vive freezing. It may live a
month or more outside of the
body. It may be present on fresh
vegetables not only in subtropi
cal and tropical countries but
anywhere that vegetables grow
even in the Arctic. This is true
also of gacillary dysentery.
Again I emphasize the part
played by food handlers for in
stance de Rivas of U. P. observes
in his textbook of Clinical Para
sitology: "In the author's experi
ence it has been found that the
main source of infestment, espec
ially among the well-to-do, has
been traceable to servants rath
er than improper sanitation." Dr.
de Rivas mentions particularly
cooks, butlers, nurses, waitresses,
governesses and chauffeurs.
In localities where the water
supplv is likely to be impure, the
water should be boiled at least
one minute, better five minutes,
not onlv for drinking but for any
domestic use. Only thoroughly
cooked vegetables or fruits
should be eaten. Therefore sal
ads should be omitted from the
menu. All doors and windows
must be screened against en
trance of flies. , lnsecticidal
spravs or powders should be
used' in the proper way each
morning and evening.
When one orders oottled (pre
sumably pure) water or milk
anvwhere, north or south, one
should insist that the bottle be
served with seal unbroken, and
open and pour it oneself. I hope
the information given here ma
be of some use to readers who
wish to avoid contracting dysen
tery. I hope, too, that readers
will not ask me what remedy I
suggest for dysentery. That is
strictly a medical question, and
this is not a medical column,
even though some knuckleheads
choose to call it medical. The
purpose of this column is to teach
physiology, hygiene, prophylax
is (prevention of disease) and
health, and that's all. I wish I
could make this clear to editors,

Washington, Feb. 14 (U.r.)
The American Telephone & Tele
graph company has an ingen
ious way 01 utr
tecting trouble
in its under
ground cables.
The company
loads t he
cables with ni
trogen and
when a line
break occurs, a
signal is flash
ed in the home
office.
One day this
week, Tom
Dutton, A. T. &
T. supervisor,
Uaxman Nichols
was talking on
his own phone
when a warning flash came in
from the long distance line that
services New York and Balti
more. Tom put down one phone,
picked up another, and dis
patched a crew of strong men to
the trouble area.
The men arrived on the scene
in due time and bore down on
the enemy, which turned out to
be a worm, white in color and
about two inches long.
"We've had a lot of trouble
before with underground cable.
and wires o v e r h e a d." Dutton
said, "but this is the first time in
history that a worm ever fouled
up the works or almost fouled
them up."
Worm Caught
The rescue squad caught the
worm in the act. The little fel
low was busy getting itself a fine
case of indigestion or lead poi
soning from the sheath that cov
ers the wires.
Up to this point, worms have
been the very least of the
troubles of the A. T. & T.
Dutton said the company has
had trouble with electric cur
rents eating away cables. Rats
are consistent pests and in some
sections of the country so are
gophers, and even squirrels
even though the cables are bur
ied two and a half to three feet
underground.
Dutton carefully explained
the nitrogen system, which in
some manner I didn't understand
sends an alarm to the telephone
company's office.

The Fernheppen
On February 18 the annual
hannuet of the students and
alumni of the Oregon State col
lege forestry school will be neia
at Corvallis, Ore., as the lads
and grads themselves put it,
"The Fernhoppers will buckle
on the nosebag."
So tradition grows in forestry
education. The Oregon forestry
school was started in 1810, as
part of a mighty surge in the
pioneer forestry movement of
the northwest. The year before
the Pacific Logging congress
and the Western Forestry and
Conservation association had
come to life. The year of 1910
was one of the worst in the his
tory of American forest fires. It
set all hands to thinking on for
estry questions. Education was
a first answer, and at Corvallis
it became a substantial one in
that year of holocaust.
Forestry education at Oregon
State college has had steady, vi
tal Browth. The school has ex
perience and tradition ready to
be termed history. It is a force
of undoubted power for the fu
ture of Oregon, the nation's first
forest state.
So there will be solemn re
sponsibility evident at the big
annual feed of the Fernhoppers.
Some 500 are expected to an
swer the ding-donging of the
gut-hammer. It will be good to
look upon them. There will be
the heads and hands of forest
management in the future of the
greatest commercial tree - grow
ing region in the world.
Now What Do I Say?
I had written so far on a se
rious kind of article for this
space when a telephone call
from Forestry Dean Paul Dunn
of OSC found Its way into my
boom - pond shack through
snow drifts, icicles and all. Now
I sit again at the old three-bank
Oliver, all a-tremble with some
thing far worse than the bite of
winter at my bones.
"You are invited by the Fern
hoppers to be the speaker at
their annual dinner on the 18th
of February," he said.
The words left me feeling
both honored and flabbergast
ed. Through the chattering of
my store chompers I managed
to mutter that as an alumnus of
the eighth grade I was unfitten
to stand up in a meeting of col
lege people, but the dean only
laughed.
"The Fernhopoers have read
your books and they know your
'Out of the Woods'," he said.
"You come on to Corvallis and
meet vour friends."
That was just how it hap
pened, minus details. So here I
sit. For four paragraphs I'd
hacked out a vfair to middling
oblective report on the annual
affair of the Fernhoppers and
some passable comment. Now
I'm looking at myself in the
thick of it, and already the cold
sweat Is popping.
Tonight, in the solemn
watches. I'll be dreaming of fac
ing a room full of Fernhoppers,
and standing numb and dumb
under their stares. So it will go
many a night. And in daytime
worry too.
So Much To Be Said
What the Fernhoppers want
to hear I reckon, is another
voice from the field of their own
experience and prospects. They
were certainly not looking for
hot entertainment or for pro
fessional inspirational speaking
when they looked the way of an
old horse - logger, green - chain

"When the nitrogen starts to
seep, it serves a dual purpose,"
he said. "It gives us an alarm
and also keeps on seeping and
thus prevents water from com
ing in. Water can cause an aw
ful lot of damage."
Actually, the telephone com
pany has had more trouble over
head than under the ground.
Sometimes black crows were
making a bad habit of coming to
rest on high lines. Take 50 or 60
of them and they weigh enough
to bog down a wire.
The company fixed that by
putting an electric charge in the
wire and giving the crows a "hot
foot." The crows learned fast.
But the strangest case of wire
failure he ever heard of involved
a hawk and a snake. The hawk
picked up the snake but became
flustered in flight. The hawk
dropped the snake, and the wig
gler found itself dead and wound
around a high line.

In the Day's News
By Frank Jenkins
Last week'a explosive news
sensation is the confession of a
German born, British natural
ized atom scientist, that SINCE
1942 he has "knowingly and con
tinuously" passed on to Soviet
Russia vital British American
atomic secrets.
IT DEMONSTRATES COM
PLETELY THE FUTILITY OF
SECRECY AS A DEFENSE.
IN his operations, this man
Fuchs was no false-mustache-wearing
two bit spy with a suit
case full of disguises, snooping
for such information as he could
pick up from others and selling
it to the Russians for a high
price
In Britain (starling, remem
ber, away back in 1942) he was
the LEADING ATOMIC RE
SEARCHER at Hartwell, Brit
ain's atomic establishment
which corresponded to our Oak
ridge, Tenn., or Hanford, Wash.
At Hartwell, he was HEAD of
the thetoretical physics branch,
which is the heart of atomic sci
ence. ,
In the United States, during
the war, he visited Oakridge, our
No. 1 atomic plant, and Los Ala
mos, where our first atom bomb
was produced. He had access,
apparently, to ALL of our atom
ic knowledge.
HE fooled the British first. The
British vouched for him. So,
naturally enough under the cir
cumstances, we accepted him
unhesitatingly. That is how he
came into full possession of all
of our top-drawer atom secrets.
WHAT kind of man is he?
Well, he was a young com
munist back in Hitler Germany.
That is how he came to go to
England. In his confession, he
says;
"When I learned the kind of
work I was to do In Britain I
decided to inform Russia and I
established contact through an
other member of the communist
party."
So he went on finding out
things and telling them to the
Russians all through the war
and clear up to 1947. He ex
plains: "I believed Russia would
build a new world and that I
would take part in it."
He was a fanatic, you see. You
never can tell what a fanatic
will do.
EVENTUALLY, he says, he
came to have doubts about
Russia. He arrived finally at the
point where he disapproved of
many of the actions of Russian
policy. Because of illness, he
missed one of his rendezvous
with Russian agents, and when
he got well he decided not to
go to the next one.
But by then the damage had
been done. He had given to the
Russians (according to his con
fession) the essential facts about
the atom bomb and what made
it tick. He may also have given
them all we know about the hy
drogen bomb.
A BRILLIANT scientific
screwball?
Apparently yes. He describes
himself as an individual with a
split mind a fantastically ad
vanced Jekyll and Hyde. He says
of himself:
"I used by Marxian philos
ophy to canceal my thoughts,
which had to be separated into
two compartments. On side was
the man I wanted to be. I could
be free and easy and happy with
other people without fear of dis
closing myself because I knew
the other compartment would
step in if I reached a danger
point looking back now, the
best way is eo call it controlled
schizophrenia."
SO there you have it.
All the mummery, all the se
cresy. all the ridiculous ritual
istic business with which we
have surrounded our atomic en
terprise has been merely wasted

ffort which actually delayed
and confused our progress.
Secrecy never was mucn good
hecause secrets can't be kept. We
have this startling demonstration
that it is no good now. mayDe
the knowledge will shock us in
to more intelligent ways of meet
ing the grave problems that ad
