Two Vavmncies
Two vacancies on tha interstate
commission will arise in Deaember
and appointments are expected to be
made by the president soon after con
t
«

Falla man throughout the state am
urging his appointment to Um com
mission and lay stress on Mr. Dennis'
familiarity with conditions in fee ia
*-•--- •-^- 1 their strong
vet recommendation.
At the present time, the interra^un
tain territory, including stales streak
ing from Montana î (o the Mexican
border, have no representation «on the
big rate making body. This, say Mr.
Dennis' friends, is a condition which
the president has an opportunity to
correct and add to their argument by
pointing out that a big percentage tot
the nation's rail mileage lies within
the iotormountain territory an<L that
the 7JM0R60 people residents therein
are vitally interested In affairs with
