A final hearing has state Commerce Commission or- been expected since early this year. dered complete reargument Tues day of the long-pending- Ogden (Utah) gateway freight rate case. Involved is the protracted fight between the Union Facitic railroad and the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad over division of the vast volume of freight moving to and from the rich Pacific North- west by way of Ogden. The two rail systems meet at Ogden and when freight Is Inter changed between them. combina tion of their separate rate struc tures applies. The D. and R. O. three years ago filed a formal complaint be fore ICC that this constituted a dis crimination against it and against shippers in the Rocky Mountain area. D. and R. C. demanded that Un ion Pacific be forced to set up system of Joint rates with D. and R. O. which would be on a lower basts than the present combination f separate rates. An ICC examiner hag recom mended that the joint rate system be approved. Union Pacific contends that the rase involves an attempt by D and R. G. to "invade" U. P.'s fruitful Northwest territory. It estimated Union Pacific would lose about fifty million dollars a year In revenues if O. and R. O. were placed in a position to get a larger share of the Ogden freight business. After lengthy hearings, the case was finally argued before the ICC Kiwanis Set Thursday Fete The annual Klamath Falls Ki warns Club picnic has been set for Thursday evening at Moore Park, with festivities slated to go at 6 p.m. . .

The flames burned through a fence separating that property from the residence of O. B. Thur man, 4032 Shasta Way,, and scorched a section of the Thurman lawn. Negroes May Join Union SALEM W - A Portland railway carmen's union now Is accepting Negroes Into membership. 11 months after State Labor Commis sioner W. E. KImsey found it gull toy of violating the state Fair Em ployment Practices Law. The local, Webfoot Lodge 932 of the Brotherhood of Railway Car man of America, was accused by five Negro car washers of discrim inating against them. When KImsey upheld the Ne groes, the local's officers resigned. KImsey said international offi cers of the union came to Portland and worked out a solution. These officers gave the union a new char ter under which Negroes are admitted. However, the commission ordered reargument because of the recent addition of two new members Martin- K. Elliott, of Indiana and Anthony F. Arpaia, of Connecticut to succeed retiring com missioners on the 11-man ICC. The action will qualify the new commissioners to take part in the decision. It is generally assumed that whichever way the decision goes, the case eventually wiu land in the courts.. No date for re-argument was set Immediately.

One sudden sheet of flame In the place would have sent the dele- fiates and everyone else Into head ong flight. With the alalea jammed, bodies would have piled up. The climax came In the early hours of Saturday morning when President Truman and Governor Stevenson addressed the conven tion. The President's life had to be protected somehow.
