By SID HOLLINGSWORTH
The story of the Oregon Trail
and the settlement of the Oregon
country is an illuminating chap
ter of American history. Much
has been accomplished in the
Northwest since the .battle cry
of "fifty-four forty or fight" in
a war that was never fought
having been compromised and
adjusted in a boundary which
has not been violated irt more
than a century of peace between
neighbors.
As a youth this writer came
to the northwest with the U.S.
Coast and Geodetic Survey and
crossed that boundary in north
ern Idaho and Washington to join
the line of levels with Canada.
At that time when the rumb
lings of world war were first
being heard, the peaceful ways
of life of the communities were
notworthy. Trouble with "wob
blies" and itinerants made it ev
en difficult for rough looking
characters like surveyors to
come to town.
That was, of course, before
the arrival of motor cars and
surfaced highways. And looking
back today it would seem that
no other development of the age
has transformed the people in
their respective ways of life
more than the- automobile. It
makes travelers of everybody
so that all of the people are in
truders and visitors part of the
time. The change in transport
ation means has brought about
a real crisis with the familiar
setting of the past.
It is with something close to
sadness that we who have wat-
ched these changes in the times
find the transition affecting the
conveniences in and out of Med
ford by the conversion of the
rail line first to a branch, and
then to curtailment of pass
enger service altogether. And
with heavy duty trucks and bus
ses utilizing the highways it is
significant to observe the means
used by the state to check the
weight of such vehicles. There
Is such a checking station at the
entrance to the Camp White
Domiciliary which is kept busy
with the logging trucks that
stream along the highway.
The point of this review is to
call to mind the picture in the
days before the wars of this
century began. In those days the
S.P. hauled a string of cars ov
er Siskiyou Pass by two engines.
They crept along very slowly
and people using the dirt high-1
way, which was just as tortuous .
and tedious, could make faster
time than the train. Another
route over the mountains even
then could be seen as inevitable.
In this highway trip, there
were hazards like, falline trees
whirh rtirl nnt affor-t tho
road. In a spring wind storm !
in the Shasta region; we en
countered a dozen big trees
athwart trio mnrt urftVi Vi

passage provided by a crew that !
dug the way clear underneath I
the trees. Some of the roads j
were improved m those days
ana it is recalled that Oregon
Highways were protected and
improved by blackened plank
ing laid across the surface at
a 45 degree a.ngle which permit
ted a fair degree of speed.
Todav. from a transnnrtatinn
standpoint, we are becoming
dus and automobile conscious,
and partly air conscious. Every
day and Sunday. CamD White is
serviced by a bus, with four
round trips. The government
provides busses to brine enter
tainers out and to tafee members
on occasion to Medforrl hall
games and special functions, and
a bus is provided for the week
ly fishing trip as well as other
trips.
Personnel and members have :
their own cars and about 300
are parked in the spaces reserv
ed for them around the station
. The American Red. Cross each
summer conducts tours through
out the Rogue River Valley in
station waaons driven bv memh.
ers of the motor corps. These
are familiar launts to historic
and interesting spots that are
weu enjoyed.
Greyhound and Trailways ,
ousses now are depended upon
to carry the veterans tn anrl
from the Domicliary when they '
go on iuriougn if they are not
iortunate enough to own a car.
Time and tide, it appears, have
passed a milestone in public
conveyance w.ithout much shed
ding oi tears.
