That, more or less, was the dialogue Saturday in a battle between the governors of the nation's two most populous states. Each man is armed to the teeth with statistics. Rockefeller made his state ment Thursday, saying that more than three times as many new plants have been built or started in New York in the past year than in Cali fornia. Brown answered immedi ately in a letter, whose con tents he released Saturday.

However, a spokesman fur Nilsen said late Friday that Nilsen wrote Rep. Edith Green (D-Ore.) on May 25 expressing some reservations about one of the bills S. 1123 that would affect chil dren under 15. In the letter, which Mrs. Green requested, Nilsen said the provision for a '25 mile restriction on employment of 12 and 13 year olds in the fields should be "re-examin ed" to see whether it would "seriously limit the chances of Oregon residents to partici pate in summer harvest work" The provision would forbid anyone 14 or under from working in a harvest conduct ed 25 or more miles from their home.
