Brown's proposed four-year limited moratorium on the death penalty faced Its second legislative test today It was expected to squeeze through the lower House and then face an uncertain future in the Senate. The bill, carried by Assem blyman Lester A. McMillan (D-Los Angeles), won Its initi al battle April 9 when the Assembly Criminal Procedure committee sanctioned It on a close 6-4 vote. As now drafted, the bill would grant a four-year mora torium on the death penalty to all but twice-convicted murderers, double slayers kidnap - murderers, prisoners who killed while in an instl tution and any person who kills a peace officer. In place of the gaa cham ber, the maximum penalty would be life in prison with out possibility of parole. But the governor would still re tain bis traditional powers to commute the sentence to a definite term and to pardon. The bill would have no effect on condemned men now on San Quentln'a death row. 73 YEARS OF SAFETY A and BT sound money management Democratic Floor Leader Jerome R. Waldie of Antioch said "We'll pass it out of our House on a non-partisan vote. We'll get votes from both sides."

O n 1 v one governor, Robert E. Smy lie of Idaho, refused to vote. GOP Gov. John A. Love of Colorado was the first gov ernor to raise the question of any possible effect of what he called Rockefeller's "liq uor problem." He characterized former Vice President Richard M. Nixon as "still the titular head of the Republican party" despite his defeat by Demo crat Edmund G. Brown for governor of California last fall. But he said Nixon was "no longer available as a po litical candidate." Washington Gov. Albert Ro sclini, a Democrat, said Rock feller was favored by the GOP In his state and describ ed the governor as "fairly well divorced" from the liq uor issue. No governor doubted Pres ident Kennedy would be the Democratic candidate. A state-by-state breakdown: Rockefeller - Alaska, New Mexico, Oregon, probably Utah, Washington and Wyoming. Goldwater - Arizona, Colo rado, Montana and Nevada. The 11 governors attending the conference represent a total population of nearly 12 million. California has a population of about 17.S million. Brown is expected to arrive at the conference this evening and will head a discussion group Wednesday on interstate land sales. PUPPY THEFT Kansas City.
