Board of directors of the chamber yesterday went on

public service commission at Salem.

"The people of Klamath county are considerably dis

tember 21st to the secretary of the Klamath county chamber
of commerce, stating 'It is anticipated any effort to bring sug- '
gested Comell-Alturas line before commission for formal con
sideration at October hearing will meet with opposition.' From
what source do you anticipate this opposition will come, and
will your commission be a party to such opposition? We also
have misgivings with regard to the Crane-Odell line move
ment, sponsored by your honorable commission, fearing it will
prevent the building of the line to the east by Klamath Falls'

county in this regard, and to take no action likely to jeopardize -the
direct eastern outlet from Klamath Falls. We are sending
a copy of this telegram to the interstate commerce commission
also, in order they may have our views.
