Reagan today "reluctantly" called a special session of the legislature, convening November 6, to reapportion California's congressional districts. Reagan heeded the recommendation of the State Supreme Court after discussing the matter with legislative leaders of both parties in his office earlier today. The court said last Friday that it would reapportion at least some of the state's 38 U.S. House districts itself if the legislature failed to by December 7. Reagan agreed with legislators who thought reapportionment should wait until after the 1970 census is completed so the redrafting of district lines can be based on upjto-date population figures.

"I'm sorry this decision was made," Reagan told a hastily called news conference. "1 think all of us are agreed. This is a task to be done after the 1970 census." But in view of the court decision, he added, "this is the proper function of the legislature." Reagan said he hoped the "troops will be out of the trenches before give their word that they would Sen. James Mills, D-San Diego, chairman of the Senate Elections and Reapportionment Committee, said the only plan that could get through the legislature would be one that would favor incumbent congressmen, Republicans and Democrats alike. Most legislators, although they disputed the court decision, had urged the governor to call the session.

"I think the legislature would prefer to do this rather than have the court do it for us," said Assemblyman Robert T. Mona-gan of Tracy, the Assembly Republican leader. The 1967 legislature put off congressional reapportionment this summer, contending any action would be meaningless before the 1970 census figures are available. But the court said action must be taken now to meet the U.S. Supreme Court's one-man one-vote rulings.

The population of California districts vary from extremes of 310,172 to 591,822 compared with an "ideal" district population of 414,000, the court said.
