HOLMES HELENA (AP) Montana's case for changing the U. S. Constitution to let one house of a bicameral legislature be apportioned on other than a population basis will be presented Wednesday to a U. S. Senate subcommittee.

David F. James, D-Libcrty, chairman of Montana's Senate Committee on Reapportionment, will represent both the Senate and Gov. Tim Babcock at the hearing before the Constitutional Amendments subcommittee in Washington, D. C. Speaker Ray J.

Wayrynen, D-Silver Bow, will represent the Montana House. The men are alleged to have "This would be undemocratic and harmful to our established tell the senators of two joint resolutions approved by both houses and signed by Babcock. One calls for a constitutional amendment by Congress and the other asks a constitutional convention. These resolutions are similar to those submitted to Congress by 21 states, 13 fewer than necessary, asking, in effect, that court powers be limited on the controversial reapportionment issue. "It was only after adoption of our resolutions that the Montana Legislature settled down to the difficult task of reapportioning itself," says James' statement.

"This we did not accomplish completely, although there was a great deal of study, discussion and debate." "The Senate failed by two votes to enact any plan," he burglarized Marvin's Tavern, (Street.
