Furth, a Southern Pacific at torney, sought admissions today to support a charge that Santa Fe's proposed consolidations with Western Pacific were hastily and poorly conceived. Southern Pacific is maintaining at Interstate Commerce Commis sion hearings that Santa Fe's bid for stock control of Western Pa cific was "a reflex action" to a similar move by Southern Pacific. Furth was cross-examining Clar ence R. Tucker. Chicago, Santa Fel vice president for operations, con cerning projects in which Santa Fe and Western Pacific hope to save $4.8 million per year. Tucker admitted Santa Fe's pro posed co-ordinated movements be tween Stockton and Oakland, Calif., would cause some trains to be moved empty. Furth won such admission as Tucker's statement that classifica tion of Santa Fe freight cars in Western Pacific yards at Stock ton would involve an extra 10 min utes per train. Furth indicated that Santa Fe could not have achieved accurate cost estimates when Tucker was unable to tell how work on the projects would be split between the two companies. But Tucker retorted that such matters depend on labor negotia tions and were not necessary to his figures at this time. Southern Pacific has proposed 18 projects in the proceedings in tended to save $6.2 million an nually. R. D. Shclton. another Santa Fe operations executive, admitted Wednesday the Santa Fe was now at the mercy of the Southern Pa cific along three sections, includ ing 145 miles of the Bieber Route but that Santa Fe remained competitive.

Childran The Bieber Route is the link ing line between Santa Fe and Great Northern via Western Pa cific's tracks tunning from Stock ton to Bieber, Calif. This route Santa Fe's link from the Southwest to the Pacific North west competes with SP's Pacific Coast route from Southern Cali fornia to Portland, Ore., where SP connects with its ally, North ern Pacific. Southern Pacific controls small portions of the Bieber Route, in cluding sections from Mojave to Bakersfield, Westwood to Mason in Northern California, and Che mult to Klamath Falls, Ore. Santa Fe has expressed fears that if SP wins control of West em Pacific, it will control the en- lire Bieber Route and thereforel could block the link between San ta Fe and Great Northern. However, the main argument during Wednesday's session was what Santa Fe plans to do if it wins control of Western Pacific Opponents contended that Santa Fe would dry up WP's business to increase its own. Several attorneys opposing San ta Fe suggested that the compa ny's self interest would be to di vert California traffic to its own line "all the way" to Chicago through Uie Arizona Gateway. Thus, Santa Fe would collect revenue for the entire trip. If it used the Western Pacific lines, it would have to share profits with other railroads between Salt Lake City, Utah, and Chicago. Gerald K. Duffy, Santa Fe traf fic vice president, insisted that his firm wants Western Pacific only to make the Santa Fe's system more competitive with Southern Pacific. PEOPLE STOP TO ENJOY ITS FLAVOR A MILLION TIMES A DAY Jobs Reach New Highs In Oregon SALEM (API - Oregon's non- agricultural employment in September was the highest of any time in the history of the state. employment commissioner David j H. tamcron said neancsaay. ine total employment, however, was less than a year ago. Cameron said that 631,000 per sons were employed in the non farm jobs, which was 900 more than the previous high set in August of last year. 'It is exceedingly pleasant to again report record levels in the number of Oregonians with non- farm jobs after a lapse of over a year," Cameron said. Total employment in Oregon Cameron said, dropped by 38.100 from the August total of 705.800. This resulted because many sea sonal farm jobs were available through August. In September of 1960 a total of 713,400 persons were employed in Oregon. The total this September was less than a year ago. Cameron said, because about 8.000 persons were still harvesting beans through September of 1960. He said the bean harvest had almost ended by mid-September of this year. o I HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls. Ore. O Friday.

The Oregon State University Ex tension Service said today that Northwest growers are feeling the effects of the heavy fall crop. Potato markets in the region slowed almost to a standstill last week as a result of large supplies, little demand and lower prices.

K WHERE'S A BR?nSrl -TTTl-L X$VA Kit I TiTeacher Tenure Cfipic To Eye Law, Purpose Villa St. Rose Cares For Klamath Youngsters, Gets United Fund Aid This is another of a Herald and News series of reports on Klam ath County United Fund agencies. As many of the 27 agencies will be covered in subsequent stories as lime and space permit. Poor family background, itiner ant employment, working mothers all contribute to the problems of children today according to a statement released by Sister Gei- maine. Superior of Villa St. Rose in Portland, Ore. Sister Gcrmaine stated that re cently the agency, which partici pated in the funds raised by the Klamath County United Fund, re ceived a 15-year-old girl whose parents came from depraved fam ily situations, had lived through seasonal employment as fruit workers, and who were alcoholics. The girl had been before the ju venile authorities in her home county because of her refusal to accept parental direction, failure to keep reasonable hours and asso ciating with highly undesirable companions. When the girl was of pre-school age she was accidentally burned seriously through playing with matches. The cost of doctor bills and hospitalization forced the fam ily to sell all family furniture and belongings to pay for her care, Their resentment fell upon the child, and they mistreated and abused her. Often the parents left the girl with relatives, neighbors and even with strangers for' months at a time. In later years the girl realized that she was rejected by her own parents and this caused her lo feel resentment, fear, insccur ity and anger She had no interest in school, and was often truant. For months after her placement in Villa St. Rose, through court order, she was sullen and appear ed to be merely "marking time until she could get out and be free: again. Gradually, however, the school program at St. Rose chal lenged her and she began to dis cuss her problems with the sisters and the case workers. Today she is gaining insight into her own problems and is develop ing, after 16 months of care, into a reasonably well adjusted youn woman. In fact, she often aids new girls arriving at Villa St Rose and the staff at the agency believes that she is going to com pletely overcome her problems. Villa St. Rose gave care to 11 of the girls from Klamath County in, 1960. The dangers inherent in private; placement of children in adoptive homes was pointed up recently by the problems faced by a 15- year-old girl committed to Villa St. Rose by the juvenile authori ties in her home county. The girl was taken in adoption, along with her infant brother, by a fam ily who wanted only the boy but took the girl, as they described it as "excess baggage" because they could not get one without the other. From the beginning Marie was rejected by her adoptive parents The mother constantly berated the child in front of others, told Marie that her own mother was a "tramp" and stated that Marie was going to be . just like her natural mother. The adoptive mother, a college graduate who evidently learned nothing about children, constantly told Marie not to smile because she had such ugly teeth. The adoptive parents never sought orthodontic care for her, which they could well have afforded. Years of such rejection has left an almost ineradicable mark on Marie, but Villa St. Rose, an agency of the local Klamath Coun ty United Fund is undertaking the task of her rehabilitation. This is going to require a long period of care, because Marie has be come sullen, vengeful, suspicious and negative. She is a very hos tile girl who strikes back at the world which she sees as rejective. At Villa St. Rose, Marie will re ceive the personal attention of the staff psychiatrist and psycholo gists, the trained social work staff, and the religious staff. Ev erything possible will be done lo help Marie solve her personal problems in order that she may develop into a stable and mature young woman fit for the com panionship in marriage of some young man.
