DISSOLUTION Of
RAIL L|NESI IS
HELD BENEFIT

Greater possibilities for devel
opment of Oregon would, in my
judgment, result from dissolution
of Southern Pacific and Centra
Pacific as decreed by the supreme
court" states II. q. Lounsbury
general freight agent of the I'm.
ion Pacific railroad, who spent
Wednesday in Salem.
"The decision does not contem-
plate that the Southern Pacific
lines in Oregon shall be isolated
but, on the contrary. proposes to
harmonic the operations between
San Francisco, Sacramento and
Portland, which means that there
would be two competing lines in
stead of the present exclusive
control by the Southern Pacific as
set forth In the concluding para
graph of the supreme court de-
cfsion reading as follows:
In addition, the several ter
minal lines and cut-offs leading to
San Francisco bay which have
been constructed or acquired dur
ing the unified control of the two
systems for the purpose of afford
ing direct or convenient access to
the bay and to the principal ter
minal facilities about the bay
should be dealt with, either by
way of apportionment or by pro-
visions for joint or common use,
in such manner as will secure to
both companies such full, convent
ent and ready access to the bay
and to terminal facilities thereon
that each company will be able
freely to compete with the other,
to serve the public efficiently, and
to accomplish the purpose Of the
legislation under which it was
constructed. And a like course
should be pursued in dealing with
the lines extending from San
Francisco bay to Sacramento and
to Portland, Oregon
"Under Independent control and
operation the Central Pacific
would Undoubtedly complete the
Natron- klamath Falls line which
it now owns and is, only partially
constructed.
1.-The Union Pacific system is
the eastern connection of the Cen
tral Pacific and combination Of
the Union Pacific-Central Pacific
would make desirable the build
ing Of the line through central
Oregon from Crane to Odell to con-
meet with the Natron-Klamath
Falls line, with connection also
from Bend to Odell, thus complet-
ing the central Oregon railroad
development-thereby forming di-
rect connection through Bend and
klamath Falls to California, also
direct through line from west
ern Oregon to the east"

Bishop Shepard used for his
subject. "The Christian Destiny

use their Influence to raise the
ideals OF evil forces
In summing up his lecture he
said, America was evidently In
tended for some high and holy
purpose. Some have seemed to
forget that this country is moth
Ing more than place to make a
living. 1t is our duty as Chris
tians to convey the ideals OF
Christianity and higher living to
these people.As students going out
from Willamette university you
have an opportunity to aid in this
great cause"
