Boyer. county clerk, yes terday received samples of old age pension application blanks now be ing used in Minnesota which re cently adopted an old-age pension law. Boyer intends to turn these over to state officials to aid them In preparing a standard b'l a n k for old-age pension applications in the 36 counties of the state. The three blanks Minnesota uses includes one used for the original application fo the person who seeks a pension, a blank fill ed out by an examiner and given to the county pension board, and triplicate blanks setting a time for hearing tbe petitioner's state ment. Counties Not Ready While Oregon's old-age pension law is operative next January 1 and almost daily inquiries are be ing made at the courthouse about it, few if any counties have taken definite steps to prepare to ad minister tbe law. It is expected members of county courts from all parts of the state will unite on preparing standard blanks and also in prescribing rules, as al lowed by law, for handling pen sion applications. Marion county will need to make a substantial appropriation in its 1934 budget for the old-age pension system. Estimates on ad ditional outgo have run as high as $100,009 annually for this coun ty. No one. knows just how much will be required and estimates are mainly guesses. Persons over 70 residents of the United States and of Oregon tor 15 years and residents of the county for two years, may be granted a pension up to $30 a month. They must al low tbe county a lien against all property they own, up to the amount of the pension. If the pe titioner has relatives who can support him or has any substan tial amount of property, the pen sion will not be allowed. The old-age pension law will be administered by each county court which will receive applications, examine them, hold hearings and finally order or reject pensions.

Happy Days Here Again, Elk Killers For the first time since 1907, hunters in Oregon can kill elk this fall but only for three days and then under rigid restric tions. The state game commission this week informed TJ. G. Boyer, county clerk, about the provisions of the newly opened season: Only October 23, 24 .and 25 will be open season days. Terri tory where elk can be hunted is limited to counties in the northeasternmost paTt of the state, centering in the Wallowa district. Before going after elk, a hun ter must secure a tag from the county clerk, paying $2.50 there fore. Only a bull elk with two or more' points can be shot. The tag must be secured Irrespective of whether or not an elk is kill ed. No rebate will be made If an animal is not bagged. Non-resident hunters must have a non-license hunting per mit and must pay $60 for a tag. The state game commission es timates there are 9500 elk in the eastern Oregon district, 1700 on the Coast range and- 800 in the Cascade mountains. One elk's tag has already been issued by the county clerk's of fice here.
