'I S UTAH, JULY 7, 1922. We Can Save You Many Vexations 8 1 SHULER MQTOR CO. $ Payson, Utah B g 9 Gives Advantage To Growing West That the dissolution of the Central 1ucilic from the Southern Paci tie, as ordered by a recent supreme court decision, will moan tho entrance of a new railroad into compotiug California and is a broad economic to tho western advantage states, xx as the statement of Frank R.- Devlin, former president of the California State Rail loud Commission, xxho has just announced his entrance into the campaign to provide the public with the facts. Dexliu, who is a leading authority iu public utility mutters rn the xvest, and who was formerly district attorney and superior judge of Solano county, California and a member of the California legislature, has beeu retained by the Union lueiiio System to according to his announcement, vigorously coutest the efforts of the Southern Pacific to nullify tho action of the supremo court. In an ofiieial statement, announcing his entry into tho campaign, Devlin stated: It has been truly said that one of the results of the world war was been to make a science of propaganda. There is uuquestiouubly no organization in California better equip work pod for effective propaganda than the Southern Pacific company. I say this not in criticism of that company, but ns a statement of what I believe to bo a fact. That many and effective agencies have beeu put into full operations during the past ten days to stampede public opinion is obivious. The ulti mate decision in this matter cannot be rendered at this time, but will undoubtedly be the subject of exten ed inquiry and study before and by appropriate tribunals. The questions involved are many and complex, including railroad operating conditions in its inauy phases; industrial uud agricultural expansion and' all the other things which follow and berailcome a part of transcontinental road development. There is no reason in the world why the people of the state should permit themselves to be swept off their feet through fear that ' the United States supreme court, the interstate commerce commission, the California state railroad commission, the commissions of the other western states, and ail courts and tribunals whoso responsibility it is to examine into, to weigh carefully and determine the many questions involved in this subject, arc going to render judgement which will result in the disaster which some of the Southern Pacific spokesmen claim must follow United the pronouncement of the Stgtes supreme court. Courts and commissions are or gaaized and have proper machinery provided for them for orderly presentation, consideration and adjudication of all of these questions. It is only fair and sensible, and it is in the interest of the public of the state at large to allow the courts and commission to consider and determine this matter in the orderly fashion which the law commands. It is unwise, unfair and unsound for any people or group of people to go on record as denouncing or protesting and decisions of our highest courts commissions on ex parte statemeuts and on presentation of only half the facts. No man, or groupe of meu, and no community should be afraid of or unwilling to hear both Bides every question. There are two sides to this question, and the public should refrain from making committments or the facts have proteerta until all been presented. It is mot a new thing to have old and established railroad fight keep a competator which it fears out of its territory. With tho control of the Central Pacific lost to the! Southern Pacific, the Union Pacific would be a real competitor. It is, however, very unusual and startling to And that apparently the first impression of the community upqn the announcement of a possible competitor of the existing system seems to be one of alarm. In view of the fact that the United States supreme court, after thorough consideration, declared the law to be in favor of tbe separation of the Central Pacific from the Southern Pacific, and that Professor William Z. Ripicy of Harvard university, one of the outstanding world authorities on economics, who was expert employed as an independent commerce advisor to the interstate commission to make a study and rerecomport covering the situation, mended such severance ns economically the sound thing to do, it is inconceivable that the peoplo of this to state, with information limited the statement of a competitor which is confessedly and naturally hostile to the coming of the Union Pacific least should be unwillingly to at suspend their judgement nnd vprdiet until more fully informed, ns When two such authorities the United States supreme court and Professor Ripley concur, one on the law and the law nnd the other on the economics of the situation, it must be obvious that the Southern Pacifics version is not the only side of the story.
