to George E. Sandy, Oregon di
rector, who returned from the
trip Tuesday.
"A better understanding of the
functions of various state and
federal agencies which will re
sult in more efficient service to
Oregon's veterans, was fined at
the meet," .said Sandy, who re
turned to his desk yesterday after
attending the 5-day conference
which ended Saturday.
