Duncan Proposes Amendments for Reapportionment Salem -lUPt)- House Speaker Robert Duncan of Medford today proposed amendments which would give more rep resentation in the legislature to the greater Portland area. He told Rep. George An nala (D-H o o d River) that Multnomah. Washington and Clackamas counties have le gitimate claims for additional representation because of in creased population. Annala's House Elections committee ex pected to take final action this afternoon on a legislative reapportionment plan. For the Senate, Duncan suggested that Polk county's seat be turned over to a joint Washington-Multnomah dis trict, with other seats in the latter two counties unchanged. Could Be Combined Polk county, he said, could be combined with Lincoln and Tillamook rather than Yam hill. For the House, Duncan agreed with putting a former Yamhill-Washington joint scat in Washington county cxclu sively. The speaker also suggested that instead of giving another seat to Clackamas alone that it be made a joint Clackamas- Multnomah seat. He said his changes would minimize the impact on East ern Oregon, which stands to lose representation to more populous Western Oregon. NANCY C.

Will he run for governor of California next year? Will he seek the presidency in 1964 or 1968? What will be his mission in the years ahead as a politician and perhaps the leader of the Republican party? The former vice president, making his return to politics after his defeat by President Kennedy last year, undertook to answer these questions and many others in conversations with legislators, party officials and newsmen at the Califor nia GOP Central Committee meeting during the week end. Not Candidate Nixon made these points: j -He is not a candidate for governor in 1962, he does not intend to be one and he will do nothing to encourage a draft. Definite as that state ment is, several GOP leaders said Nixon cannot be counted out of the race against Demo cratic incumbent Edmund G. Brown. If the party cannot develop a strong candidate, the pressure will become great to compel him to run against Brown. -As for 1964, a presidential election year, Nixon feels that whether he will be a candi date then or in 1968 depends on events which no one can predict. He is not willing as some GOP leaders are, to con cede that Kennedy is a shoo- in for reelection in 1964. Events and history, he says, will determine that. -While he intends to prac tice law in Los Angeles ha will devote a substantial part ot his time to building the party in California and the nation. He says he is used to working 16 hours a day and intends to put in a full day at the office and spend the other eight hours in politics. do FALSE TEETH Rock, Slide or Slip?

A gentle little short-bodied bird that spends nearly 90 per cent of its life on the ground. The bird is so nearly earth- bound that it seems reluctant to fly at all, in spite of trie fact it is actually a fast and graceful flyer. Living as it does, right on the earth's surface, its enemies are many and varied. It exists in the danger zone, where every animal of prey prowls and feeds, where sudden floods can destroy its nest and eggs, where even the wind is a constant threat. Even the man or boy with the club or a stone can snuff out its little life.

Dated at Salem. Oregon, this 1st day of Marrh. 19fil LEWIS A STANLEY, State Engineer Mtmber F.O.I.C. IT by giving the ground dove rather somber color, which makes it less conspicuous. But nature neglected to give the ground dove a wild or a cau tious instinct, as they are normally very tame. There are many species of pigeons and doves - on the North American continent, but the ground dove is the smallest of the lot. They have short flesh-colored .legs, and walk with a dainty step that appears almost dignified. Al though apparently gentle and trusting, they will fight des perately when aggravated. They have been known to at tack bluejays, blackbirds, and others almost twice their size. This Is especially true when the other birds come down from higher levels to, the ground where the little dove has located some choice food. The ground dove constructs a flimsy nest of twigs and grass on a low stump or in a small bush and never lays over two eggs. However, it makes up for this evident oversight by nesting several times a year. In some sections of its range the ground dove is wrongly called a "turtle dove." Al though its gentle call docs not seem as sad as that of the mourning dove, it Is, however, a plaintive voice, low-pitched; a sdft cooing call that comes from the cotton field or the orange grove. Because of lis peculiar little cry, the ground dove has had many superstitions entwined about Its little self. One old belief, persisting even to this day, Is that It Is "bad luck" to kill one of these little birds. Perhaps this has helped the dove to survive, for these defenseless little seed - eating birds must, of necessity, de pend solely on man's toler ance for existence.
