(AP) Tak ing the financial burden of old age pensions entirely off the counties and placing It on the state and federal governments, snd reduction of the age qualification from 70 to 65 years, was urged by Oregon county court representatives at a hearing before the senate Judiciary committee late yesterday. Most of the court members declared that the present 25 per cent of the pensions paid by counties was too great a burden and .that applicants were not receiving the allowances to which they were entitled. Commissioner Taft of Multnomah county expressed the view of the ma jority when he declared that present revenues in Multnomah county were not sufficient to care for relief ex clusive of the old age pension. County Judge Day of Jackson county sstd that lack of funds In his county had reduced the pension average to 9 monthly. The Multnomah county av erage waa said to be $13.50. All of the county Judges were of the opinion that liquor receipts should be continued for relief and old age penMona only, and should not be diverted for any other purpose. Senator Allen Bynon of Multnomah county said that liquor profits com bined with federal funds would make 4.000.000 more than the amount now appropriated, available by 1939.

Over 2,000 airplanes used the Med ford airport last year, it was pointed out, and the present port expansion plans were drawn with an eye to the Increasing traffic of army, navy and marine planes up and down the coast and the need for an edquate landing place between Portland and San Francisco.

Banwell of the chamber to advise the Jackson county delega tion In the special session of the legislature that they should act to confine the work of the session to the object for which It was called the selection of a site, and construc tion of a new capltol.
