Washington on'March 25, on the proposed.addition of plane

the designation of delegates was now.required. Mr. Daniel

mission to speak from the floor. He expressed concern over
Hearing of Civil increased traffic and the use of larger jet planes if the

Orange County
postponed. Later in the meeting the Mayor recalled Mr.
Airport
Emory, and the airport discussion continued. Mr. Emory
stated that Orange County Airport should be made a
Metroport, or feeder airport, as recommended in the

its satellites. He urged short -run taxi service as an
objective for the City, stating that the large airlines,
if permitted, would drive out the needed commuter service.
He referred to Orange County Airport as a potential dumping
ground for surplus and unwanted Los Angeles flights.
Councilman Wilson pointed out that the decision rested
with the Board of Supervisors and Mr. Emory said that
Costa Mesa's position would carry great weight with the

aviation committee has been doing on the airport problem,

and Don Smallwood, 1918 Kornat Drive, Costa Mesa, spoke
from the floor in opposition to the addition of Pacific
Northwest service. Reference was made to the recommendation
of the Planning Director's supporting the expanded service
as the simplest and easiest way to force the development
of an intra -continental airport facility in Orange County.
