Waist, 27 to 36. /o Congress faces WASHINGTON (P)-The 92nd Congress, featuring some new faces but many of the same old problems, convenes Thursday for what promises to be a strife- ridden session spiced by presi- dential politics. With the Democrats in control and hoping to unseat President Nixon, the new Congress is ex- pected to be a skirmishing ground in preparation for the 1972 election battle. There are some internal struggles to be settled first, however, starting with a contest for House speaker, a hard-fought contest in the House for Demo- cratic leader, and possible lead- ership contests in both parties in the Senate. Although Carl Albert's nomi- nation for speaker of the House was expected to be uncontested, Rep. John Conyers of Detroit announced his candidacy yes- terday. Conyers charged that Democrats will not live up to promisesagainst racial discrimi- nation in politics if Albert is House speaker. Conyers said he thinks he has as much chance of winning as Harry S. Truman did of being elected president in 1948, but said it is too early to tell how much support he has among House Democrats. Besides the leadership con- tests, House Democrats must handle a challenge to the leadership Page Sevewn c battle The proposal to permit deba - to be cut off by a three-fiftlhd - majority instead of a two- thirds majority will probably be filibustered. But .vith memo- ries still fresh of the Seme struggling with five filibusters last month as it tried to ad- journ, sponsors of the proposal are hopeful of success. Once the legislation starts moving to the floor in the House and Senate, the zsounds will also be familiar. Such leftovers from the 91st Congress as funds for the supersonic trans. port, President Nixon's welfare reform bill, a Sociay Security increase and trade iegislation will all be warmed up and served again. Congress may be replaying also its role in a threatened na- tional railroad strike. An emer- gency bill passed last montl banning a strike expires March 1 and if new legislation is not passed the unions will be ftreet shut down the nation's rail sys-. tem. Action will also have to'l taken fairly early in the sessien on some key programs due to expire June 30, among them the draft and the antipoverty pro- gram. But, President Nixon will .get to fire first in his duel witl Congress when he sets forth 1is legislative program Friday night in a State of the Union address. Udall's hopes. of being elected House majority leader wer- boosted yesterday by the sup- port of potential candidate, Fd ward - P. Boland. A spokesman for Boggs said the move by Boland of Massa. chusetts had been expected and made no difference in Boggs calculations. He is claiming -roledges of more than120 votes on the first ballot. A majority is 128. Udall is claiming 94 first-ballot votes, and many. pledges *of seon choicemafter other candidates are. eliminated. Boland's decision strength- ened speculation that _Udall, if named leader, would support him for whip, or assistant lead- er, the post held by Boggs. The whip is appointed by the majority leader with the con- currence of the speaker. Rep. John Conyers Sen. Hale Boggs -I Mississippi delegation's status as party members and proposals for changes in caucus rules and procedures including a number aimed at the seniority system. Conyers, who is leading the ef- fort to deprive the Mississip- pians of party seniority, said yesterday at a news conference he is opposing Albert because of what he called Albert's equivo- cation on the challenge. He said Albert told him he would neither support nor op- pose the effort, based on the contention that the re-elected congressmen did not qualify as candidates with the biracial group that was recognized at the last Democratic national con- vention as representing the na- tional party in Mississippi. In addition to the contest fo: House speaker, five Democrats are fighting for the key post cf majority leader. Months of intense campaign- ing is believed to have narrowed the field to Reps. Hale Boggs of Louisiana and Morris K. Udall of Arizona, both of whom predict victory. But the other three candi- dates, Reps. James G. O'Hara of Michigan, B. F. Sisk of Califor-, nia and Wayne L. Hays of Ohio refuse to concede anything and a series of ballots will probably be needed before anyone gathers a majority. Under the rules of the contest, the low man will be dropped after each ballot u n t i l someone achieves the 128 votes needed to be elected. If, as is expected, it comes to a showdown between Boggs and Udall, the contest will then pit the regular and old guard Dem- ocrats against the younger re- form-minded members.

Sen. Howard Baker Boggs, a 30-year veteran in the House, is now the Democra- tic whip. His strength is main- ly among the Southerners, the committee chairmen and the senior members. Udall, 48, a brother of former Secretary of the Interior Stewart Udall, has served in the House 10 years and has built up a following among the newer members. In the Senate, Republican Leader Hugh Scott of Pennsyi- vania faces a possible challenge from Howard H. Baker Jr. of Tennessee. Scott's failure to support the Nixon administra- tion on some key votes last year has antagonized some GOP regulars, but Baker has not yet decided whether to challenge him.* Sen. Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts also could be op- posed in the Democratic caucus in a bid for re-election as whip. Sen. Robert C. Byrd of West Virginia is thinking of running against him. W h e n Congress formally, opens on Thursday it will be on a familiar note in the Senate- a fight to change the rules to make it a bit easier to cut off a filibuster.
