Benefit Seen in G. N. Merger
11 All Oregon joined in urging the Interstate Commerce
Commission to permit the merging of the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific railroads. Many other communities
' did the same thing, and they join Oregon in the belief
that one good big strong railroad is better than two, not
bo strong. Klamath Basin urged the merger because we
' want the Great Northern to be able to develop and build
' lines along the Pacific Coast by virtue of the added
strength.
..'. .That the merger Is the sensible conclusion and that
Mr. Budd is right in his plan of operation for the two big
roads is shown by the following editorial from the Wall
. Street Journal of recent date :
To compare railroad earnings of 192 or 192? with those ot
J920 or 1921, and to draw the quick conclusion that the carriers
are on Easy Street with only green lishta showing at the intersec
tions. Is a glltterinK hut fatal temptation. A writer iu the current
North American Review who asserts that "no major problem has
faced the carriers In the period since private control was resumed
' misses what is and has teen coin? on in transportation. He is even
unconscious ot the implications of his own sweeping: dictum that
"nothing; has "retarded the progress ot the railways toward financial
stability. The word "toward" is ased advisedly.
' " - That railroad net earnings hare practically doubled between
the demoralisation left -by war control and the recent achievement
E of a new efficiency docs not mean that financial problems for the
railroads are a thing of the past. It meuns only that the return
on railroad capital, after years of depression, almost but not quite
returned to iu pre-war level In 92 and sharply receded in 1927.
If the-nr. rsrrvatfoiu of this tuvaviure of financial stability againNt
ffnrtaiaUoM In bnaincsa Volume, constant attrition of freight rates,
a riainjr wage level and steady Inroads upon truffle by motor
bnsew and tracks Is not a major problem or a group of them. It will
bj hard to find a better definition.
: 'Still less indicative of a real appreciation of the railroad situa
tion, but donbtless representing a widespread Impression thereof is
the following from the same writer:
In the Northwest, for example., economies of 1 10. J
600.000 annually were forecast -by promoters of. the
Northern lines' merger, but not one cent of this would he
reflected In reduced freight rates, the witness testified. In
the East, similar conditions obtain, -and it is the view of
,,'those who have studied the testimony and the prospec
tive lineup of railways that' there is no reason to antirl-
' pate an improved public service, because service already
-Is adequate and excellent, and there is no prospect of re
' , , duced rates through mergers, for the reason that the pro
1 J .. motors thereof do not intend to give their savings If any
' . to their patrons.
, Except In the most technical sense of preparing schedules. . it is
HO longer the business of the carriers to make rates. If the pro
posed --merger in the XurthwCHt effects Important economics toe
railroads of flutt section mill be power low. to prevent t hem from
being passed on In whole or part to the rhlppers. If the rate-mak-,
I ? authority "decrees that lower rate, will bn reasonable. To say
that toe service will not be better because it already Is excellent

-rJKlamath, Democrats for Smith
, .. "The boys here are for Smith for president," said J.
'.. Sophy, a Smith-for-president scout Who is touring the
'state.7 ; , -
Perhaps they are; in fact we rather believe , Mr. Sophy
Is correct in his statement. But what 'will the' old party
leaders say to' that? There is Oswald West who is fight-
ilrig Smith to the last ditch; there is Walter Pierce who
38 fighting the New York governor and says he will stick
othe end; there is Milt Miller, the sage of Lebanon, who
Shouts against Smith. .
n the face of tnis strong-opposition, will Smith carry
,?Oregon? Are these leaders to be relegated to the far
irear-and a new oligarchy established in Oregon demo
jratic ranks?
j, To be frank, it looks as if that is happening. '
4 luilr. Sophy says that is about right and to look for
fhat result and Mr. Sophy knows whereof he speaks.
"""Democratic primaries are the first heat in the race,
ltnd now we come to a situation that is decidedly interest
ing: Suppose Governor Smith is nominated for . the pres
idency on the democratic ticket, then what will Walter
and Os and Milt and a lot more of the Jeffersonian pur
itans do at the polls?
i -f Will they vote the republican ticket?. ,
5 ?Echo answers "they will not.' For voting the repub
lican ticket is bitterness to these stalwarts.
4 Will they vole for Al. Smith, much as they dislike
him because of his wet stand; much as some of them dis
like him because of his religion?
..'Ecbo "again 'answers, this very "softly and'that echo
.: Sys. "yes. they will vote for Al, for the boys never scratch
; a ticket at the polls."
