A tentative apportionment of delegates to the 1924 republican national. nt'en, to the order of the national committee issued in 1920 and designed to equalIze republican voters' representation, was made public Saturday at committee headquarters. It provides for 1036 delegates and alternates, as compared to 984 four years agoi, with sharp reductions ordered in some of the "solid south" states and increases in most of northern and western sections. Two More For Oregon Oregon's apportionment is raised from 10 to 12 delegates. Washington will have 16 instead of 14.

California, of also from gets 26 to two 28. more, an Changes in apportionment were directed, following years of cism of large delegations from southern states normally democrat1c. No delegates will be allowed, under the new rule, from congressional districts which do not maintain a republican organiaztion do not cast at least 2500 can votes. South Cut To Pieces This strips many southern districts entirely of representation, reducing South Carolina's strength from eleven to four, Mississippi's from twelve to four, Louisiana's from twelve to -nine and Georgia's from seventeen to nine. The Florida delegation, however, Is increased from eight to ten.

Tennessee from twenty to twentysix and Virginia from fifteen to sixteen. Four delegates at large are allowed each state and two additional delegates at large are called for on each representative at large. Poll records from several ern states have been difficult to obtain, according to national committee leaders, and later information may slightly change the tentative apportionment.

PLUMBER WILL NOT RELEASE WEALTHY WIFE (Continued from Page One) of Lageson was to file, the alienation suit before mentioned, followed by an affidavit of prejudice filed last Friday to restrain Judge Leavitt from having anything to do with either case.

The reason for the filing of this affidavit, according to O'Neill and Irkin, Lageson's attorneys, was because Judge Leavitt, in dismissing the case on its appearance, did 90 without prejudice. This made it possible for the case to be brought up in this county or Multno nan county. Wife Alleges Cruelty Mabel Pusey married J. Lageson, plumber, in Clackamas county March 11, 1909. They moved to a homestead in Idaho and lived there three and one-half years.

Mrs. Lageson charges her husband with cruel -and abusive treatment during their stay there. They then moved to Meldrum in Clackamas county and from there to Oregon City where they remained till 1917. During their residence in Clackamas county it is charged by Mrs. Lageson that Lageson continually abused her and spent his money in card games instead of contributing to the support of their two children.

Her aunt Mrs. Willard P. Hawley, her uncle by marriage, Willard P. Hawley, wealthy Oregon City paper manufacturer, and her father all contributed to her support she alleges in her complaint. She further charges general humiliation owing to the Calumny brought upon her from her husband's character in the community.

In 1917 the couple moved to Portland. In 1918 sickness necessitated an ocean voyage, which her relatives financed against Lageson's will. In 1921 Lageson moved to Klamath Falls and left his wife in Portland for several months it is declared. While here it is charged that Lageson "habitually and continuously dealt in 'moonshine spirits' and manufactured stills. On December 25 so the complaint reads, Lageson assaulted her and shook her into semi-unconsciousness.

So great was the noise made by the assault that neighbors beat on the door inquiring the cause of the disturbance. That in brief consists of the charges against Lageson, the detendant. Husband's Charges Counter charges in the answer to the complaint filed by Lageson's attorneys charges a liason with an engineer while making an ocean trip for her health in 1919. Other incidents of the voyage were brought into the answer to the complaint. It was further charged PIN ITREE COMING! IT'S IVaX (VOHALFS AHI POI 40 FRIDAY, PICTURE DIa A THE that Mrs.

Lageson was of an unruly temperament and continually lost her head in a fit of anger, beating her clenched fists against her husband's bead. After her arrival in Klamath Falls to join her husband In 1921, it 19 charged that a liason was started between her and one Harry Furch. The allegations assert that Furch made continual clandestine visits to Mrs. Lageson, that Mrs. Lageson on a number of occasions went to visit Furch at chis home; that on one occasion Lageson caught the pair in an upstairs bedroom together in Furch's house with Mrs.

Lageson's hat and hair dishevelled and that the woman who posed as Furch's wife to kill Mrs. Lageson if she did not leave Furch alone. Wife Hss $375 Income Monthly Within the past few years two annuities were settled on Mrs. Lageson permanently, according to her statement to C. F.

Stone while he was occupying the bench in 1921. She receives $250 a month from her aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Willard P. Hawley, owner of the Oregon City paper mills, and $125 3 month her father, Frank R.

Pusey who is now residing in Portland. She is asking for a complete divorce, the custody of their two children, Gilbert, aged 14, and Raymond P. aged 10, and in addition $150 a month for the support of herself and her two children. So far the case is in a stage of incompletion. It is expected that it will come to trial by fall.

Maze of Legal Stratejem While attracting little publicity up to now, the case has been a work of legal wile and strategem. Included among counsel who have been retained by Mrs. Lageson to break her marital bonds, are Harrison Allen and Thomas F. Ryan, prominent Portland attorneys, and C. F.

Stone and Renner, Manning and Ganong, leaders of the local bar. So far the ties of wedlock have resisted all etforts of counsel. An appeal to the supreme court is considered certain before the litigation is finally decided. The latest move of Lageson's counsel, O'Neill and Irwin, the invocation of the affidavit prejudice, automatically inquall flea Judge Leavitt. The case, which has been before at least three Jurists, will now go before another who will be sent to Klamath by Kelly Three House A.
