Returned from the East Harold H. Moore, traveling passenger agent of the Santa Fe system, returned this week from a trip through the eastern states and was in town yesterday. He says more people are booked for California this winter than ever before, and that his company will not be able to adequately handle its freight and passenger business until it double tracks its road between Los Angeles and Kansas City. "The attempt of eastern roads to divert traffic to Cuba on account of the San Francisco quake seems to have died abnormally," he said. "The scare, if any ever really existed, has passed away, and there is more talk in the east about California than ever before. I predict that more people will come to Southern California this winter than last year by many thousands, and last year was the high-water mark in western immigration. "Weather in the east? It was stifling. It melted one to the ground. I went as far as Buffalo, and, talk about heat, I'm glad to get back." "Anaheim I find is going ahead nicely. You have here one of the best towns of its size in Southern California. I see more people doing business in your stores and more rigs on your streets than in many of the larger towns in Southern California. Anaheim is all right." "Weather in the east. It was so ling. It melted one to the ground. I went as far as Buffalo, and, talk about heat, I'm glad to get back. "Anaheim I find is going ahead nicely. You have here one of the best towns of its size in Southern California. I see more people doing business in your stores and more rigs on your streets than in many of the larger towns in Southern California. Anaheim is all right." Mr. Moore said that nothing attracts the eye of the easterner more than paved streets and green lawns. "Paved streets and green lawns is what you want," he said. "I am satisfied our company will take the matter up in progressive spirit and will do its share to push the town along. These two things, paved streets and green lawns, do more to attract the easterner than any other thing. You have easterners on your streets every day. Did you know it? They are sizing you up right along." "How about Huntington's electric line entering Placentia?" he was asked. "Will that cause the Santa Fe to construct its line to that section?" Mr. Moore was not prepared to speak upon that point, but said his company was pressed to the very limit of its capacity to handle the business now offering. More business could not be handled unless the road was doubled tracked eastward as far as Kansas City. This, it is understood, the road has now under consideration. Mr. Moore is recognized as one of the shrewdest railroad men in the west, and what he says about paving and lawns should be made a note of.
