Newspaper Page TextRailroad Dispute Russell Hogue, of Medford Corporation and chairman of Southern Oregon Conserva tion and Tree Farm associa tions traffic committee, told the group Friday night he ex pected a settlement to prevent a Southern Pacific railroad cleric's strike some time Sat urday night. Hogue learned this when talking to Southern Pacific officials at San Francisco Fri day, he said. He predicted lumber and plywood plants could operate only two weeks if the Brotherhood of Railroad f- Clerks went out on strike. j "I have been asked what X the industry should do in case f of a strike. Every plywood, j lumber and other plant served , by Southern Pacific should ' close down immediately for the duration of a strike. This economic pressure would ' force an end," Hocue said. ' Dependent on Railroad j The lumber company of ficial said the lumber indus try here had not always "seen ; eye to eye" with the railroad, '-. but it is dependent on its transportation facilities, i ' "Nationally, railroads have ':- a problem economically.

Settlement Seen By the east and midwest they are almost broke. Passenger travel is low and is financed by out of pocket costs," Hogue explained. "Trucks are tak ing the more profitable short hauls and LPL freight." To improve their cost posi tion, the railroads have tried various automation. Unfor tunately, when the railroads were flush financially they bargained away many of their rights with the unions. Due to installation of such automation equipment as elec tronic computers the railroad clerks have been directly af fected. Since Southern Pacific is financially better off than many railroads, the' union is making the present argument a test case, he explained. Offset Curtailment The railroad has offered not to lay off personnel, but should an employee leave for any reason, not to rehire. In many cases of distressed areas, the railroad offered to offset curtailment of employ ment by augmenting employ ment insurance benefits and monthly compensation up to five years.

EVERY NITE! Public Pigeon NO.I JANET BLAIR VIVIAN BLAINE SOCTFA Group "But the unions said no," Hogue noted. "They are more interested in position protec tion than people protection." Hogue added that the rail road car supply is still "not too good." The strike threat caused rerouting of all west ward shipments to other lines. Westward movement of freight cars is below SO per cent of normal movement, he said. However, SP is making an increased effort to get 3,000 cars into Oregon over this week end, Hogue pointed out. Southern Pacific is doing a good job in building new double-door cars needed by plywood and veneer manufac turers and is converting a number of cars to the double door type, he added. Eastern lines are rebuilding a num ber of their cars, too, he said, but the car shortage is still serious, and was not felt as much during the normally slow period of January and February as it will be during the busy shipping season, he predicted.

Woman Quits Home To Begin Dieting Long Beach, Calif. - IUPI) -Mrs. Mary Ferguson, 36, is leaving her husband, not be cause she doesn't love him, but because she wants to get her weight down to 200 pounds. The 244-pound woman said she will move into a hotel room to begin a two week "medically approved" fast so she can fit into new clothes she wants for Easter. "I just can't maintain a girlish figure at home," Mrs. Ferguson said. "My husband likes rich food. He's a slim man and a big eater and he never puts on weight. I can't stand not to eat when he does." During the two weeks she will have no solid food, only coffee, tea, bouillon and vita min pills. Her doctor, who asked not to be named, ap proved of the crash program. He said she would be under medical supervision all the time. Mrs. Ferguson's husband, Arthur 46, an advertising salesman, will remain at home. They have no children. They were married 13 years ago when she weighed only llo pounds. Opposition Voiced To Moratorium Salem - mm - Opposition to a moratorium on community colleges has been voiced at a Senate Education committee hearing. State Education Depart ment witnesses opposed the moratorium and explained America's growth in the past resulted because great em phasis was placed on rapid expansion of education fa cilities. community college repre sentatives argued against a change in the support form ula which would result in more taxes at the local level. Witnesses said this would force community college dis tricts to "break faitl." with local taxpayers who had been promised local levies would not go above a fixed amount. A bill requiring endorse ment of the state board of higher education, as well as the state board of education, before a college was estab lished also was opposed. The committee took no ac tion on the group of five bills under consideration Thursday.
