SACRAMENTO UPI - A mod ified bill to abolish the death pen alty in California was given a SO SO chance for survival today in the Assembly. , The bill by Assemblyman Les ter A. McMillan (D-Los Angeles) would stop capital punishment on an eight-year trial basis. on the eve of the lower house debate, McMillan said he had rounded up 39 votes, two short of tne number needed for passage "Whether they'll stay with me 1 don t know, he said. It will be close, there's no question about it." McMillan said the swing votes were neid by eight assemblymen, mostly nrst term lawmakers, who claimed they were "still on the fence." Opponents of abolishment were reported to have been working in Assembly Monday in an attempt to capture the key votes. Earlier, Assemblyman Walter I. Dahl (R-Oakland), chairman of the Republican caucus, said GOP legislators had voted "overwhel mingly" to battle the antideath penalty bill. There are 33 Repub licans in the 80-member Assem bly. ' The minority party caucus vote came before McMillan amended his bill to place an eight-year mor atorium on the death penalty. In its original form, it would have abolished capital punishment out right. In place of the death penalty, the measure provides for a life term sentence with no eligibility for parole until 10 years have been served. Parole then could be granted only with approval of all members of the Adult Author ity and five of the justices of the California Supreme Court. The amended McMillan bill was sent to the Assembly without rec ommendation after 'a brief hearing April 9 before the Ways and Means Committee. The bill previously received, by a vote of 8-2, approval of the As sembly Crime Committee. Arguments presented during a three-hour night committee hear ing were substantially the same as those heard two years ago when a similar measure finally won As sembly approval but was defeated in the Senate. The important difference in this year's controversy over capital punishment is that Gov. Edmund G. Brown has publicly promised he will sign a bill abolishing the death penalty if one reaches his desK. The governor has not cam paigned actively, however, for abolishment. Witnesses who supported the measure contended that the deatn penalty is no deterrent to crime and that it is poor man s penal' ty" exacted usually from people not financially able to hire top llignt detense counsel.
