New Dial Phones Are Being Installed Here

Something new has been added to some business houses and some homes as the new dial phones are gradually being installed in preparation for the changeover to the new system on Aug. 26.
 In private homes, those who picked out colored phones are al ready enjoying the harmony pro- duced by the color scheme.
 Pete Reader cautions, however, that when the home color scheme is changed the telephones cannot be painted or in any way dam aged by careless use of paint around the phone. These phones are the property of the phone company. Three installers arrived this morning to work full-time on getting the phones in ready for the cut-over in August.
 About sixty guest are expected to be here for the day the cut over is made and arrangements are being made to make their visit here enjoyable and unusual.

City Council Meeting Notes

Several important m t t r came before the City Council Monday evening.
 John Walters was appointed jail superintendent.
 A discussion was held concern ing the possible exchange of the old utility truck of the Nome Power and Light for nail pick CT belonging to Les Bronson which he is offering the city for 1000. No decision was reached.
 It was reported that the city siren on the City Hall has burn ed out and another is needed to replace it. It was suggested that an air horn might be better type of alarm due to deterioration of sirens because of weather con- ditions.
 A new business in Fairbanks is offering it's services to com munities as advisors and planners called the Al Business Associ- ateS.
 Ernie Kling offered the city street sweeper for $55O and also told them about a boiler at Moses Point which might be made avail able to the city if it desired to purchase it.
 Recommendations from the floor included a request that all property sold by the city should be properly advertised so that everyone has an opportunity to purchase and know that it is available.
 Another recommendation from the floor was that the city take an interest actively in the bor- ough problem as well as home rule government.

were averted at the merger confer
ence in Helena last week in the clos
ing minutes of the day and hall
meeting at which opponents and pro
ponents of merger presented then
attitudes about the proposed CONSOLE
dation of the northern rail lines
when Paul T. Smith, Montana Com
missioner, moved to check dissentior
over a resolution on which they were
going to vote.
Jack Holmes, from Montana, chair
man of the conference, attended by
representatives of public service COM
missions from 10 states, had ap-
pointed a resolutions committee at
the opening of the session.
When the resolution opposing the
merger came out in the final hour of
the meeting, and move to discuss
it in executive session failed, COM
mission representatives from Oregon,
who arrived late Thursday, and
North Dakota, attempted to tear it
to pieces section by section.
Smiths move to eliminate any
binding vote of the group and merely
submit the resolution to the COM
missions of the 10 states for approval
or disapproval seemed more than the
proverbial discretion which is the
better part of valor, because it was
obvious many representatives OF
commissions at the meeting were
legal or technical advisors with no
authority to vote on behalf of their
state regulatory agencies.
Opposition developed over Section
vi that concluded, 1--WE hereby record
our opposition to the said merger
application, as not being in the best
interests of the public. This section
was removed in an attempt to get
approval of the Oregon and North
Dakota commissioners who opposed
the resolution. The move did not
have the desired effect because i'm

Milwaukee Asks ICC Protection
Against GIMP Squeeze Play

'NThe Milwaukee Railroad is tough
enough without your help, V. P.
Brown, general freight manager for
the Great Northern Railroad, told
representatives of regulatory bodies
from 10 states Thursday afternoon
of last week. Brown spoke on the
rebuttal that closed the merger con-
ference called by the Montana Rail-
road and Public Service Commission
to bring information to this area on
the proposed merger of four northern
line railroad companies, which would
form one of the largest railroads in
the world.
"Don't sell this (merger) on an
emotional basis of your fatherly in
terest in Little Orphan Annie, he
said.
Milwaukee spokesman, however,
took no exception to the COMPARE
son and, in fact, made it boldly
clear that unless certain conces-
sions were granted along with the
merger the combined parallel roads
would be able to "dry up the Mil
waukee.
Larry H. Dugan, vice president
of the Milwaukee, said the six condi-
tions they were demanding as inter-
venors before the Interstate Com
merce Commission on the merger case
would provide square deal" as OPP
posed to squeeze play in the event
the ICC grants the northern lines
permission to merge.
He reminded western people about
how the Milwaukee was greeted with
open arms when they came west be-
cause it meant competition with the
existing rails, and he said, "We can
not help but try to visualize how the
Milwaukee and the people of the area
will fare under the merger proposal
that will comprise the most ex-
tensive rail network in the United
States.
''The Milwaukee is the only other
railroad extending west and it stands
virtually alone through this vast and
area. We wonder whether /

meQ1aCely UnoSo TWO commissioners
came back and opposed at least -four
more sections of the seven section
statement.
WHY THE HURRY?
Paul Rasmussen, Minnesota Com
missioner, at this point stood up and
said, people are becoming afraid
of their own shadows, and asked
those who opposed the section asking
for Interstate Commerce Commits
sion hearings on the merger in each
of the affected states, because they
would be time consuming and make
cumbersome record, why they were
in such hurry. He said Minnesota
was going to ask for hearings in five
of their major cities and the people
there were going to have a right to
be heard. He said the railroads had
spent five years preparing their case
and he saw no reason why it should
"just be thrown at the public. He
deplored the attempts to expedite"
a decision ON the merger. "Some-
thing that has been built for 100
years shouldn't be destroyed over
night, he said.
Controversial sections opposed by
the Oregon and North Dakota Com
missioners included one that asked
that "no abandonment of main line
.or branch line trackage should be
permitted for a period of ten years
after the date of granting of the ap-
plication for the reason that the ma
tional security would require such a
condition and the fact that the econ
omy of the various states affected
by the merger has been built and
maintained in accordance with the
present main line and branch line
trackage and that it would take at
least ten years after the merger to
evaluate the effect on the national
security and the economy of the
states involved.

Over 700 MissouIu
Businessmen Allan
Against Merger

Petitions from Missoula opposing
merger were presented at the merger
conference by Frank Caron, chair
man, and Roger Murray, public in
formation director for the Missoula
Civic Group. Caron said the organi-
cation subscribed to the opinions of
the Milwaukee speakers and DR.. John
Melcher.
The two petitions were presented
by Murray who said one was signed
by over 700 Courageous and con-
cerned businessmen acting in behalf
of typical main street., and the
other by the general public in behalf
of their city and state". The petit
tions, he said, were drawn Gin the
sincere language of the layman" and

to shippers, and the cumulative eff
fects would be an obstruction in the
way of industrial development and
a serious loss to the country many
times greater than anything that
could be attained by merging.
Labor, said P. K. 3yers, vice
president of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen, "does not like
to be separated from the public
interest and if merger would de-

He said that carrier figures show

PUBLIC INTEREST REQUIRES
RAIL COMPETITION

PUBLIC INTEREST REQUIRES
RAIL COMPETITION
Appealing for the outright and &C.
tive support of the people along the
railroad lines, Dugan said the gen
eral welfare of the area requires an
interest in keeping the Milwaukee
alive for competitive purposes be-
cause, 'you can rest assured service
will decline and the beneficial effects
of competition will end", if the Mil
waukee can not survive the effects
of GIMP merger.
The six conditions demanded by
Milwaukee are important to the area
in which they operate because other
wise no industry will ever locate in
Milwaukee territory. The combined
railroads, said Ray Merrill, Milwaukee
attorney, "are willing and able to
keep Milwaukee from getting the
advantage of long haul traffic.
Admitting a definite partisan
interest in keeping their railroad in
existence, Dugan added there was
also another ingredient. He said
they urged their conditions Gin the
honest belief the public interest
required them.
Among the conditions being asked
by Milwaukee are entry into Port
land, Oregon, and Billings, Montana;
to provide shippers choice of routes
via western functions such as Seattle,
Spokane, Missoula, Butte, Miles City
and Great Falls to enable each Pacific
Northwest carrier to compete on
equal terms; right for service route
to Sumas, Washington; abolish "dual"
switching rates in the Pacific North
west, and free industry of all switch
ing charges; and application of single
line rates between points on the Mil
waukee and points on the merged
Great Northern Pacific & Burlington.

NOT CONDUCIVE TO
COMPETITION

NOT CONDUCIVE TO
COMPETITION
1t is hardly the type of economic
development for a nation proud of
individual ownership and proud of
local control and local development.
1t is not necessarily conducive to
competition and certainly tends to go
to excuses and none of us are proud
of the end result in the electrical
manufacturing field where price fix
ing has been admitted This is ma
tional scandal and has cost the public
millions of dollars.
Now we are asked to consider this
proposed merger to combine three
large strong and highly profitable
railroads into the largest railroad on
earth. Yet, if the arguments of these
fine MP and GIN officials are sound
and the economies and increased eff
ficiency would be realized-less du-
plication of facilities, centralized
control and gigantic organization
would not it also follow that merging
should continue to make an even
bigger railroad company, perhaps
these three could again merge with
three more and have one large sys-
tenn in the West. Yet, hold on, this
would be leading to naturalization
and specialization of railroads. We all
agree that this would be bad for the
public and also the carriers.
Yet, where is the great need of
this proposed merger, now. Surely
it isn't financial as evidenced by the
continued but consistent good stock
dividends which, incidentally, present
a peculiar contrast to Mr.. Eastman's
(vice president, MP figures of 21s
per cent for the GIN and IA per cent
for the MP on return of investment.
l am alarmed at the proposition
as has been presented by the GIN and
MP as being so conclusive. Why in
this presentation by the responsible
men of their companies have they
not frankly discussed the short-com-
ings or at least admitted the disad-
vantages in various communities and
various states, if the merger is al
lowed.

presented so fluently and eloquently

officials here and at almost every
