As integrated court aystem

would eliminate the judicial
functions of the county courts
in 26 counties. These county
courts still exercise juvenile
and probate jurisdictions
Such a proposal would re
I) quire that all functions of the
justice courts be abolished,"
Judge Main said.
One of the most important
problems considered by the
interim committee is the pres
ent delay in appellate court,
the district court judge said.
The interim committee will
recommend to the state legis
lature that the supreme court

nine0 members. Also, circuit
judges would be appointed as

The coiAmittee also pro-j

Howeyer, equity cases must

The nevr proposal would have

said.

would be allowed on a great

would quickly eliminate those
which - do not require fully
written opinions.
The supreme court would
have jurisdiction over all
courts, according to the in

dations. "It is recognized that a
number of justices of the
peace are doing a fine job,"
Judge Main said. "However,
the committee as a whole

Fargo, N. D. (UPI) A
North Dakota state's attorney
has thrown out the election
of Richard Shaw, 21, as Demo
cratic committeeman for
Fargo's 17th precinct.
Shaw, a prisoner in county
jail, received one write-in
vote from a fellow prisoner to
win the election. The state's
attorney said prisoners should
not have been allowed to vote.
And besides, Shaw's home is
in the 32nd precinct.
erable saving to taxpayers,"
the judge added,,
Casa Cilad o
The committee was told of
one example of where a jus
tice of the peace issues seven
verdicts a year and draws an
annual salary of S900. In
making the orecommendation,
other committee members
stated there Ivere - many in-
equalities in the penalties im
posed by justice courts.
Aiding this uniformity, is
the recommended use of he
uniform traffic ticket. This
onld eliminate abstracts
and complicated record keep
ing. A uniform system of pen
alties also wtJuld b estab
lished, according to another
recommendation. 0
Travel pay would be au
thorized for district court
judges so that cases may be
heard in outlying points.
Commissioners,, would be ap
pointed ior certain localities
where required to take bail
and bold preliminary heaH
ings, according to another
recommendation. District
court would be legally desig
nated as a codrt of record.
Rules Committee
To further assist in main
taining this uniformity of
lower courts would be a traf
fic court rules ocommittee.
This would include such peo
ple as the attorney general,
superintendent of the state
police, and director of the de
partment of motor vehicles.
This committee would estab
lish minimum amounts of bail
for various traffic offenses
and perform other functions
to maintain uniformity of
traffic law enforcement.
Supreme court justices
would be. required" to retire
at the age of 75, according to
another recommendation. Cir
cuit and district court judges
would have to retire at 72.
No retirement age is specified
now.'
After a specified number of
year's service the circuit
court judge would retire at
three-fourths of his annual
salary. Thecircuit judge now
retires at half pay.
Counties of more than
10,000 population would not
allow district attorneys and
their deputies whose salaries
are paid even partly by the
state to o maintain private

mendations under the crimi
nal law section.
Private Counsel
Counties would be allowed
to Retain private counsel for
some matters, the committee
will recommend to the state
legislature, Judge Main noted.
District attorneys also
would be allowed o obtain
additional deputies if needed.
The office of district attorney
would be pieced on a non
partisan ticket, according to
another recommendation. The
committee will recommend
that district attorneys and
judges salaries be increased
according to the recommenda
tions of the Oregon State Bar
association. o
The district court would be
allowed to appoint 3 defense
counsel tor those defendants
who cannot afford an attor
ney. However, this would be
only in Pa s e f of felony
charges. The court also would
be allowed to determine a
reasonable salary for such a
defense counsel. He would be
allowed, a reasonable fee for
such things as expert wit
nesses andinterpreters.
Counties with populations
100,000 or more would be al
lowed to appoiat a public de
ferader if they desired.
Revision Recommended
The interim committee will
recommend to the state legis
lature a complete revision ofi
the juvenile code.
As part of this, the commit
tee will recommend adoption
of an interstate compact on
juveniles. Delinquent juve
niles out of the state would
be supervised. Such an agree
ment would provide for re
turn of runaways, juveniles
on probation or parole and
escapees. 0
This compact would author
ize juvenile authorities in
Oregon tot, enter an agree
ment with another sate? to
use special facilities.
The committee will recom
mend a new tobacco law.
This would make it An offense
for juveniles under 16 years
old to smoke.
Those who sell tobacco to
this age g r o Urji would be
given "a maximum fine of
$100 and S100 and 30 days in
jail for a second oifense.
Pupils smoking on school
property would be given a
maximum fine o $25. This
provision would apply $o all
minors.,,
A uniform curfew law for
the state for all under 18
years old also would be estab
lished, according to another
recommendation. This would
set the cdtfew period fjom

Hollywood (UPI) Twelve
years ago Lauritz Melchior
would have subsidized classi

stamp tax on radios.
Today he's cut the price in
half and assess each televi

tfThey could sell them in
the postoffices," the tall, silver-haired
veteran of operas
and screen said as he de
plored the "lack of opportu

Melchior's "art tax" is a
subject close to his heart, a
long-tfcne project whiaii typi

operatic star has had in
spreading the appreciation of
"better" music.
Earlier . . this month,. MeW

Portland (UPI) Oregon
ancP Washington dedicated the
new bridge that links them
across the Columbia River
Tuesday but the ceremony nar
rowly avoided Ch mishap that
could have takn the glitter
off the occasion.
The dedication wasne of
ribbon - cutting and speech -making,
and it started late
andcran overtime. Moving up
stretm right on schedule was
the tug Beulah H. Russell
pushing a barge. The tug toot
ed for the lift span to open
but the bridge at that moment
was crowded cvith an official
motorcade and scores of ped
estrians. Getting them clear
took some time and the pilot
house of the tug barely cleared
the bridge as the sjgin was

"Nobody could not afford
it." Whenever the government
needs entertainers for any
purpose at all it doesnt' hesi
tate to call on the singer or
the musician, Melchior said.
"But it does nothing for
music. It's ridiculous. We do
everything for baseball or
football, but for music we
don't lift a finger."
