The Oregon State Motor Aasocia

is a naxca for tourists tarrying in
thia city, and had it not bus for this
organization, a lady and gentle man
passing through last week would
have been in dire straits, and as ft
waa, suffered no little embarrass
ment from the actions of a couple of
motor cops and an underling at police
headquarters.
The couple arrived from Calitv.-

With the usual
red tape accompaniment, their num
bers were delayed in issuance, and
they proceeded northward, and were
not molested until reaching this fair
city, where they were told by a cou
ple of motor cope to report to police
headquarters.
A swell-headed officer greeted
them at the station with official os
tentation. Although the unfortunate
travelers told their tale of woe and
produced'a receipt for a 1921 license
duly paid for, there was nothing do
ing, sayeth Mr. Officer, who in
formed them that the only possible
by which they could visit the num
erous place of attraction in Portland
would be by purchasing an O-—>n
license. This dictum was accompa
nied with insinuating and insulting
remarks.
An appeal to the motor associa
tion, of which the tourists mentioned
were members, fortunately, brought
quick results. Not from the swivel-
cnair bonehead, but officers Bigelow

case from the leading representative
of the association, the *NX K." ofi
Chief of Police Jenkins waa soon

ply to give Portland a bad name
with the tourist fraternity, he should
make a shining example of this
smart Aleck at his earliest conven
