Funeral arrangements are under the direction of Freitas Funeral Home, Yerington. NEW YORK (AP) J. Wallace LaPrade today confirmed that Attorney General Griffin Bell wants him to retire but declined to say whether Bell has said he will fire him. "The attorney general sent word for me last Thursday that he would like for me to retire," the FBI assistant director said in an interview with The Associated Press, "and I did not give a favorable response to that suggestion." However, LaPrade conceded that the possibility of his retirement loomed large. The official, who has been transferred as head of the New York office in connection with his role in a grand Jury investigation of alleged Improper wiretaps and break-ins by the FBI, said previously that Bell has ordered similar investigations LaPrade said Bell has acted "with the president's authority" and challenged Bell to debate the issue with him on national television.

At the White House, press secretary Jody Powell told reporters that warrantless searches in the Carter administration have been "entirely and scrupulously in accordance" with publicly announced guidelines adopted after consultation with appropriate congressional committees. Powell said that to compare present practices with those of past administrations seemed "rather strained." The 51-year-old LaPrade made his claims at a news conference Thursday at which he announced he had been relieved of his duties here and transferred to Washington pending investigation of the charges against him, which stem from an FBI Investigation of the radical Weathermen movement in the early 1970s. "The issue at hand is political, as opposed to legal," LaPrade said, "and there has been a political effort to control the FBI. I think that Mr. (J.

Edgar) Hoover in his tenure was strong enough to maintain the organization in such a fashion that that was not possible, although it was always tried." There was no immediate response to LaPrade's remarks from Bell, who was out of Washington Thursday. The 27-year veteran, an assistant FBI director and chief of the New York office since early 1975, was head of intelligence during the Weathermen investigation from 1970 to 1972. Referring to pressure from Bell concerning his alleged part in investigations conducted without warrants, LaPrade said, "Is it proper to ask: Will another political power in Washington desire to prosecute today's actions five years from now?" LaPrade called on all FBI agents now Involved in such "warrantless investigations" to stop work until they have written orders from President Carter. According to a New York FBI source who did not want to be named, Bell asked for LaPrade's resignation Monday after he was named an unin dieted co-conspirator in an Indictment charging former acting FBI Director L. Patrick Gray and two former aides of ordering the warrantless surveillance of the Weathermen.

In Washington the Justice Department acknowledged that LaPrade had been served with "a notice for proposed administrative action," but a spokesman denied his accusation that the Carter administration was carrying out investigations similar to those of the Weathermen. Justice Department spokesman Terry Adamson said searches without warrants had been carried out only against "foreign agents under rigorous internal executive branch approval." The Justice Department contends the Weathermen investigations were illegal because the underground group had no significant foreign ties and it was not a national security case. But LaPrade disagreed, telling the news conference: "The American people should know that the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Weathermen organization were in collusion with each other during the early 1970s." He added that the FBI prevented the possible deaths of 300 people here in 1973 when agents, acting on "information from warrantless sources," found three bombs placed by the PLO. LaPrade charged that leaks "obviously emanating Supervisors vote to abandon street Gazette-Journal Carson Bureau Carson supervisors voted Thursday evening to abandon 8th Street between Carson and Curry streets to permit the Ormsby House to put a 270-space parking lot and pedestrian walk between it and the recently opened Travelodge Motel. Those supporting the abandonment said It was consistent with the "superblock" concept under which Carson's small downtown streets would be enlarged to make the area more economically viable.

Supervisor John Hayes voted no, citing the objections of several adjoining property owners, including an Arco station owner who says he will lose one entrance-exit and, in the process, plenty of business. Spokesmen for the station were not present at the meeting. In the past they have threatened legal action if the closure takes place. Under the abandonment scheme, Arco and whoever else abuts the vacated street will be given 30 days in which to indicate whether they wish to acquire that portion of it closest to them. They also agreed to abandon their plans to have mid-block crossings to the site installed on 6th and 9th streets after city Public Works Director Paul Lumos said it would impede traffic.

Medical officials probe German measles exposure LOS ANGELES (AP) Medical officials said today they are still investigating whether any of 258 pregnant women who may have been exposed to German measles from three doctors had caught the fetus-threatening disease. Dr. Jerrold Turner, associate medical director at Harbor General Hospital, said 130 of the women have already received at least the first of two blood tests for the disease. He said some results of the tests were expected to be available early next week. The Center for Disease Control said in Atlanta today that Los Angeles officials were searching for the women.

Spokesman Tony Tripi of the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services, which operates Harbor General, said the search began late last month. it, DOin ot city; Robert T. Murphy, 28, and Carolyn S. Underwood, 27, both of Reno. Nancy A.
