CAPITOL TOO SMALL The past ten days Oregon's $2 million Capitol built in 1937-8 and ciowded the day occupied, has been going through its bi ennial period of internal conver sion to make way for the 1955 legislature. Moie than 8000 square feet of floor space used by groups from i various state departments since the 1953 legislature adjourned have been vacated and the groups crowded in tight space with other departments having seasonable space. The Legislative Counsel, now a year-around legal operation ! which is the outgrowth of the ' Status Revision Council, will be- i come permanently located in the Capitol.

Geary's campaign was revived when Baum was defeat ed for reelection to the house. Former Senator Guy Cordon has announced plans to open a law office in Washington "on the hill", a consulting counsel for Oregon clients who deal with the Federal Government.
