Oregon Tuesday, March H. mi PAGE 3 "DENNIS THE MENACE' LOS ANGELES AP Richard Milhous Nixon, who rose from small town lawyer to vice presi dent of the United Stales, is back in a law office today. The defeated Republican presi dential candidate ended two months of speculation about his future Monday when he told a news conference: He is joining the large Los An geles law firm of Adams, Duque and Hazeltine. He will divide his time between the law office and a separate. KLAMATH COUNTY 4-H CLUB Leaders' Association members elected officers during a recent monthly meeting.

Fight Looms On Reapportionment SALEM 'API , The House Elections Committee voted 6-3 Monday for a legislative reap portionment plan that would make very little- change. The three minority members, believing that Western Oregon population centers are entitled to much more representation than the bill provides, ..promised to fight it on the House floor. In the Senate. Tillamook and Washington counties would share a senator, in addition to the one that Washington now has. Lincoln ad Polk would share a senator, giving Polk a loss of one-half. In the House. Hood River. Was co, Sherman, Gilliam, Morrow and Wheeler counties would share two members. They now have a total of three. That loss for Eastern Oregon would be made up by giving a seat jointly to Multnomah and Clack: amas counties; Washington Coun ty would be increased from 2" 2 to 3, and Yamhill would be cut from l'j to one. The three dissenters! are Reps. Phil Lang and Ed Whelan. both D-Portland, and William Holm strom, D-Gearhart. The plan, however, has a good chance of being approved by the legislature, it has support of the Republicans. Eastern Oregon leg islators, and some others. The plan probably will be con sidered by the House late this week. Whelan tried to amend the bill by removing Multnomah County's subdistncting for its 16 House members. It w as defeated 5-4. The amendment would have given big advantage to the Democrats because the county is overwhelm ingly Democratic. Some of the subdistricts are Republican, however.

Nixon noted he will work as counsel, not partner, for the firm. As counsel, he explained, he will be paid only (or those cases w hich he handles directly. As a partner, he would share in all fees re ceived bv the firm. He said this arrangement will help him avoid any charges of influence peddling or conflict of interest. The former vice president said he expects to work primarily in tax cases, labor relations and anti-trust suits and U.S. corpora lions' relations in loreign coun tries. He added: "I won't take any matters of using my influence on a government agency to get spe cial consideration for a client." However, Jie said he saw little chance of any conflict because he is "a defeated candidate of the opposition party." A conflict of interest might arise, Nixon noted, if he represented a client before a governmental agency with a po litical appointee left over from the Eisenhower administration. Last weekend Nixon announced he has no. plans to run for gov ernor of California. But some Re publicans say they're not con vinced he won't change his mind and oppose Democratic Gov. Ed mund G.

Commerce Secretary Luther H Hodges was scheduled to launch the bill on its rocky road in Con gress today before the House Ways Jt Means Committee. The bill, designed to get more money lo speed construction of in terstate highways, would cancel a scheduled one-cent cut in gasoline taxes and boost taxes in trucks, diescl fuel, tires and other items. Even the automobile manufac turers hedged on the money part of the proposal. In a statement prepared for the committee, the association said "conclusions should not be reached on the proper level of commercial vehi cle highway taxes" until after a study of the American Association of State Highway Officials' five year road test. Democrats and Republicans have predicted the bill will have considerable difficulty in get- titic through the committee, let alone all ot Congress. Other congressional news: Elsenhower: The House was ex pected to pass with no opposition a bill to restore former President ,Dwight D. Eisenhower lo his rank of five-star General of the Army. The bill, suggested by President Kennedy, would put Eisenhower back tin the active list but would not pay him. He gets his regular ex-president's pension and allow ances instead. Feed Grain: The administra tion's emergency feed grain bill was bogged down in a House-Sen-, ate struggle over its enforcement provision. The Senate knocked out the provision, claiming it would set up the agriculture secretary as a "feed grain czar," but the House left it in, claiming the bill to curb surpluses was useless without it. A joint conference committee seemed far from' agreement on the matter. Jobless: The Senate Finance Committee sent Labor Secretary j Arthur J. Goldberg scurrying after 1 statistics to try to avoid a delay in the administration's unemploy ment benefits extension plan. Chairman Harry F. Byrd said he didn't see how the committee could proceed without a break down on what each state will pay and what it will receive under the plan to extend benefits. Goldberg promptly wired the 50 states for answers.
