Horton hears a who
Lane DA mentioned for U.S. attorney job
By th* Associated Prsss
Lane County District Attorney Pat
Horton has been recommended for
possible appointment as U.S. attorney
for Oregon.
Eugene lumberman Peter Murphy, a
Republican national committeeman
elect, said on Wednesday Horton’s name
was submitted to the transition team for
President-elect Ronald Reagan.
However, Murphy said he does not
know if the transition team will want to
replace Sidney Lezak, the nation’s long
est-serving U.S. attorney.
Lezak, 56, appointed by the late Pres
ident John F. Kennedy, has been U.S.
attorney for Oregon since 1961.
Lezak is a Democrat and Horton, a
Republican.
"We feel that a Republican should
hold that post,” said Dr. Robert Voy,
state Republican Party chairman.
“Let’s face it, Mr. Lezak was appointed
by a Democratic president,” Murphy
said. “He's obviously doing a good job to
have served through the Nixon and Ford
administrations. But that doesn't mean
our man isn’t as good or better. We feel
he’s qualified and that his credentials are
outstanding.”
Murphy said the Reagan-Bush transi
tion team now is concentrating on na
tional-level appointments and will not
consider appointments to regional posts
for a couple of months.
Horton said he had not been offered
the job and would not say whether he
would accept.

Carter proposes hikes
in top federal salaries
WASHINGTON (AP) - Pre
sident Carter proposed salary
increases of 22 percent Wed
nesday for top federal officials,
including Congress, the Cabin
et and judges. The increase also
applies to his own pension.
The raise would boost Cabin
et salaries from $69,630 a year
to about $84,000. Since the
pensions of former presidents
are tagged to the Cabinet pay
scale, Carter’s own pension
would increase.
Congressional salaries would
go from $60,662 to about
$74,000. The measure also
would increase salaries of top
White House aides.
The pay increases are con
tained in the administration’s
1982 budget message,
scheduled to go to Congress
Jan 15.
In a written message to Con
gress, the president said money
is not the main attraction of
public service, but “compensa
tion levels today have fallen
below the point at which they
provide adequate monetary
recognition of the complexity
and importance of top federal
jobs. The financial sacrifice
demanded of top federal of
ficials is becoming far too
great.”
Carter said he knows that
"the salaries already being paid
these officials look very large to
the average taxpayer,” but peo
ple with expertise who are
recruited for top government
jobs usually are already highly
paid “and there is a limit to the
financial sacrifices they can af
ford to make.”
Carter quoted his attorney
general, Benjamin Civiletti, as
having said that many lawyers
are declining appointments to
the federal bench because of
pay.
White House chief of staff
Jack Watson and other admin
istration officials reportedly
cleared the proposal with
members of President-elect
Ronald Reagan's transition
team. Reagan is expected to go
along with the plan.
