I By JOHN KOENIG JR. Associated Press Special Service WASHINGTON David L. Lawrence of Pennsylvania is hopeful some progress may be made within a few weeks toward reducing the state's congressional districts from 30 to 27, made mandatory by the 1960 census. Lawrence said he has been discussing the problem with the stole chairman of both political parties in Pennsylvania. In turn, he said, the respective have conferred with members of Congress from their own parties.

"I'm hopeful something will turn up in the next couple weeks," I said Lawrence. i One obstacle to a fast solution I however, he indicated, is that Rep. Will'iam J. Green, Philadelphia Democratic chairman, is on vacation and will not be home for some time. Quered on a report that Green is being pressed by the Kennedy administration to give in to a Re, publican demand that one of the three seats to be abolished be in Philadelphia, Lawrence said he had no knowledge of it.

Last Tuesday's election is regarded in Republican circles as a stinging rebuke to Green, who had predicted upwards of a 100,000 margin for the Democrats in Philadelphia. However, Green's organization in the Quaker City was able to deliver only a 79,000 majority to Anne X. Al'pern, Democratic candidate for the State Supreme Court. As a result, the Republi- cans; with some large victory margins elsewhere, were able to eke out a win for Judge Henry X. O'Brien in the only statewide con- i test.

i Republicans immediately made the boast that they could unseat many' of the state's Democratic incumbents in the House if congressional candidates are forced to run at-large. This latter procedure will have to be followed unless Pennsylvania rcdistricts by Feb. 20. Lawrence has said he will call a special session of the legislature i if the two parties agree on terms i of a redrstricting bill in advance. IS SHOWER GUEST Mrs.
