WHITMAN COLLEGE OFFERS AWARDS ON PRIZE ESSAY. man and Mr. Miller were In Hermis ton Tuesday enroute to Pendleton. The establishment of a representa tive in the Eastern Oregon country is in line with the commissioner’s announced program of some time ago to cooperate and render every possi ble assistance to persons engaged in the carriage of persons or property under authority of the Motor Trans portation Act. Both Mr. Nauman and Mr. Miller will be very glad to meet and cooperate with all opera tors, and will give them every assis- tance in adjusting any matters which are now difficult of understanding, Other districts are now being planned throughout the state, each of which will be in charge of a dis- trict supervisor. It is hoped that this will be a means of a closer re lationship between the motor car rier and the commission so that the matter of compliance with the law will be more easily understood by those operating under the commis sion’s jurisdiction, and at the same time receive the benefit and assis tance of a representative of the com mission without the necessity of in curring expense and time for travel to Salem.
