 W REGON State college is to be congratulated upon the service it has rendered the state and the people thereof in the period since its inception. I am mindful that this year marks the 75th anniversary of the federal and state appropriations for a 90,000-acre land grant for the school, and also the 50th anniversary of the founding of the agricultural experiment station. In the intervening years, the college has established a tradition of faithful service that has won and will merit the admiration of our people. However, we must all look forward to the future, and I feel confident that the college will meet the problems yet to arise in the same fine spirit as in the past. Governor Charles H. Martin General Charles H. Martin Governor of Oregon GOVERNOR Charles H. Martin of Oregon consistently sustains the State Hoard of Higher Education in all its prerogatives to insure a highly efficient ministering to pertinent needs of the state through the State college and the other institutions of the state system. Characteristically abrupt in expression, he believes in placing responsibility squarely in the hands of the administration. He has helped to expand the functions of the State college since his inauguration by approving legislative acts providing funds for the Squaw Butte range experiment station—26,000 acres of inter-mountain arid lands. He served two terms in the House of Representatives of the United States Congress. His 40-year record in the United States army brought him the rank of major-general and the Distinguished Service Medal. (iS)
