Montgomery of Eugene for his support of a special re apportionment plan. The plan by a 12-member com mittee of non-legislators appoint ed by House Republicans would not increase the Lane County del-! egation to the legislature. Rep. Richard Eymann, D-Mo-hawk, and Rep. Edward N. Fade- ley, D-Eugene, said Montgomery put his party above his county by instigating a Republican gerry mander attempt. The two said that the plan would deprive Lane County of a senator and a representative it should gain in any new reapportionment.

(AP) -I The business recession Is hittingl hard at organized labor's own management operations. A drop of about one million dues-paying members has forced the AFL-CIO I to retrench. ' Federation leaders said private ly today that, like many business men, they are going to have to adopt economies and get morel revenue to keep their big labor or-1 ganization out of the red. Lagging employment has re duced AFL-CIO dues paying mem-, bership from about 13.5 million to about 12.5 million, it was said. Members out of work don't pay regular dues. Also, while dues revenue has been declining, union expenses have been increasing. The retrenchment program is ex pected to result in some layoffs on the AFL-CIO headquarters I staff in Washington as well as a! tighter rein on donations to var ious causes which have been run ning to over $1 million each year. The AFL-CIO Executive Coun- oil also was expected to levy a temporary special assessment of two cents per member on affiliat ed unions in order to counter a general fund deficit that has climbed to about $700,000 in the past eight months. The temporary additional dues payment, amounting to about $2 million would continue until the AFL-CIO holds its next convention here in December when a perman ent dues increase is expected to be proposed. lMMJJM W.'Jiii inn.'wun. i. in iniiwiww'iwin '.' hi mi . ?!
