    Railroad 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. In

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.
Eating out is a special treat for
every member of the family.

in serving family groups, so

"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.
