New York Demo's Aim for City Vote
United Press International
SYRACUSE, N. Y. — New York Democrats today aimed for the "big city" vote with a state ticket shaped to attract liberals and New Frontiersman.
Robert M. Morgenthau, Democratic choice for governor, and his running mates hope to duplicate President Kennedy's sweep of the state two years ago by offering the voters a program to advance the New Frontier.
The convention, which ended shortly before midnight, chose the first Negro in New York's history as a candidate for statewide office in nominating Edward R. Dudley for attorney general. The move was endorsed by U.S. Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy, the President's brother.
WHEN THE NOISE and quarreling of the two-day convention ended. the state ticket included:
- Morgenthal, son of Henry Morgenthal Jr., treasury secretary in the Roosevelt administration, for governor.
- James B. Donovan, the attorney who negotiated the release of U2 pilot Francis Gary Powers from a Soviet prison, for United States Senator.
- Mayor John J. Burns, of Binghamton for lieutenant-governor. Burns, father of 11 children, is the only stater.
- Dudley, Manhattanborough
president in New York City, for attorney general.
- Arthur Levitt for reelection as controller.
- John Scileppi of Queens for associate judge of the court of appeals.
THE TICKET was not exactly what most upstate leaders were looking for, but they promised wholehearted support in November. Privately, they had misgivings that the slate gave them the best force to beat Republican Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller.
Morgenthai was nominated after one of the most bitter convention floor fights in the state's history. Mayor Robert F. Wagner teamed with old-line political leaders to put him across.
DUDLEY, LEVITT and Scileppi were selected by acclamation. Many of the 1,138 convention delegates had left the convention hall when it came time to nominate a senatorial candidate and hear the acceptance speeches.
In his acceptance, Morgentha challenged Rockefeller to debate state issues. He accused the governor of using his office to win the 1964 Republican presidential nomination.
"Shamelessly, this governor (Rockefeller) has put his drive for the White House above the needs of our people—right here in New York State." Morgenthu said.
Senate Approves Trade Bill
(Continued from page 1)
the President with discretionary powers to impose higher tariffs or quotas in retaliation for restrictions by other countries against U.S. products. Conferees were expected to accept some form of this "get tough" language, so long as it remains permissive, not mandatory.
THE ADJUSTMENT assistance program would provide federal payments of up to $62 a week for a full year to workers made jobless because of import competition. It also calls for federal loans, technical assistance and some tax concessions for industries suffering from increased imports.
This assistance program, the subject of considerable controversy, was the administration's answer to those who fear the impact on domestic jobs and firms of greater competition from foreign goods. Presently, the only relief available to domestic interests is to seek higher tariffs.
The most serious challenge to the bill came during a 141/2 hour session Tuesday when Sen. Bush sought to restore the existing "peril point" mechanism. He lost, 40 to 38.
The peril point system is a procedure under which the Tariff Commission advises the President not to cut tariffs below a certain point lest they imperil domestic industries.
THIS AND ALL other amendments were rejected as administration forces held firm control throughout the debate. Other amendments rejected included ones to cut the program from five to three years, and to strike the adjustment assistance feature.
In final speeches on the measure Sen. Jack Miller, R-Iowa, told the Senate he would vote for it but "with some misgiving." Miller said he would feel better about the legislation if it contained clearer guidelines.
Miller also said the bill should be accompanied by a "sound fiscal policy," improved federal tax laws and greater incentives to capital investment.
Sen. Jennings Randolph, D-W.Va., said it was "misleading to emphasize" only the tariff reducing features. The real aim of the bill, he said, was to expand U.S. exports.
"It is not a giveaway program, nor is it a unilateral lowering of our defense against overseas competition," Randolph said. "It is legislation providing for a business-like and realistic relationship between the United States and those nations of the world with which we might trade."

to a more vital role in the University. Twenty-five per cent of athletic profits will be turned over to the Endowment Association to use as they wish."
VanderWerf said that the entire sports program could be expanded by the new addition.
"Our figures show that football is the only profit-making sport. We hope that basketball will be in the future. Football pays for our sports program."
He indicated that initial athletic program improvements would include an improved track in the stadium and the adding of wrestling as a varsity sport.
Prof. VanderWerf attributed the stadium expansion plan to athletic director A. C. (Dutch) Lonborg, who will retire next year.
(Continued from page 1)
"Expansion represents the realization of Dutch's dreams over the years." Prof. VanderWerf said. "It is the culmination of a wonderful career." He said that resources in the athletic reserve fund have increased $200,000 in five years, and that without Lonborg's "able leadership," the board would not have been in a financial position to consider expansion.
Board Approves Stadium
The addition will bring the stadium's permanent seating capacity to 42,900. With the present non-permanent bleachers, total capacity will be 44,900. Presently there are 36,400 permanent seats and 38,400 total capacity, including the bleachers.
The expansion will move KU from sixth in stadium capacity to fourth in the Big Eight. Only Oklahoma, Missouri and Colorado will have larger stadiums.
UP Proposes Bill
The stadium proposal is the second of its kind announced by the board. Last spring a proposal was made to remove the stadium track, and lower the fooball field by excavation.
Gregory A. Swartz, Overland Park sophomore and chairman of publications for UP, is responsible for the newsletter.

Anderson continued, "The newsletter will benefit every student on campus and promote student voting responsibility."
Anderson also announced the new party platform and revision of the constitution will be completed and distributed to all students by the middle of October.
Charles E. Patterson, Rockford, Ill., senior and co-chairman of the platform committee suggested a larger platform committee so that the platform will be "what everybody wants."
VanderWerf said that the first proposal, while "more logical," had no chance of winning wholehearted public approval because of emotional and sentimental reasons.
The decision to build upward rules out the possibility of building an upper deck. The construction of an upper-deck was considered, Lonborg said, but overruled because the seating would not be as good.

cept associate status in the Common Market—similar to the status given former French colonies in Africa.
Trinidad said it would accept associate status. Jamaica asked more time to consider. The Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland said it would accept the special status.
The communique said most British colonies eligible for association would accept.
INDIA, PAKISTAN and Ceylon urged negotiations "as soon as possible" on trade agreements between them and the enlarged Common Market.
Australia, New Zealand and Canada were—to the surprise of most conference observers—not mentioned by name in the communique.
The communique said the 16 nations agreed on their readiness to join in international efforts to expand world trade—both in raw materials and in manufactured goods.
The communique had little to say on the vital question of temperate foodstuffs in which Canada, Australia and New Zealand are interested.
ON THIS, the communique said, "importance was attached to the need for securing adequate safeguards to protect the essential interests of the Commonwealth producers of temperate foodstuffs and other agricultural products including tropical products as well as certain raw materials for which zero tariffs have been requested.
"The importance for some Commonwealth countries of trade in a broad range of manufactured and processed goods were also emphasized."
This section of the communique began with a statement of principles on world trade along the lines given by Prime Minister Harold Macmillan in his final speech to the conference.
These included the fostering and expansion of world trade, progressive price policies, aid to underdeveloped countries, and easier access to outside markets for industrial products of young countries.

Lawrence Group To Honor Gridsters
Approximately 750 Lawrence men and their sons honored the University of Kansas football team at a "kickoff dinner" in Allen Field House Monday night.
Following a meal of fried chicken and barbecued spareribs Coach Jack Mitchell introduced his squad.
The Jayhawker coach emphasized the role of sophomores on this year's team. "They say that you lose one game for every sophomore that plays considerably. That's impossible. We have 14-15 sophomores and we don't play that many games.
He told the crowd that this year's team is the finest they have had academically, "morale-wise," and desire to succeed.
"The boys want to have a great team and they are doing everything in their power to succeed," he said.
Mitchell said that the coaching staff was not sure what kind of team the Jayhawkers have. "We're prejudiced. Sometimes we think they are better than they are, because we want them to do so good."
