Twain Not Solely Responsible for Oldest Press Clipping Bureau
The fiftieth anniversary of Allen’s Press Clipping Bureau in San Francisco and Los Angeles marks its long service to public officials, business leaders, movie stars, and welfare workers. Harris S. Allen, guiding the bureau since 1893, credits Mark Twain for inspiring Will Clemens to move west, but stops short of claiming founding credit.

Santa Fe Opposes Greyhound Plea For Rate Reduction
Santa Fe argues against Greyhound bid to cut fares from 1.5 cents to 1.3 cents per mile in southern California while northern routes show higher rates. Witness Harold Goldberg of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe testified the proposed cuts threaten its streamlined San Francisco to San Diego service. Santa Fe seeks permission to counter any reduction, noting California costs fell due to its competition and citing earlier 1935 rates from Ukiah to Eureka.
