Women seek more representation in

Congress

WASHINGTON (P)-A group of candidates
ranging from old-line conservative to New Left
liberal is trying to increase the number of con-
gressional seats held by America's majority,
women.
Although women outnumbered men by two
million in voting booths during the last national
election, they are outnumbered 50 to 1 in Con-
gress, which has fewer female members today
than it's had in 18 years.
The gap is almost certain to be narrowed, if
only slightly in the Nov. 3 election.
All 10 women incumbents are expected to win
re-election, and so are several female challengers
to male candidates.
However, Lenore Romney, whose election in
Michigan would double femine representation in

the Senate, is accorded little chance of joining
Sen. Margaret Chase Smith (R-Maine).
Among House hopefuls, Bella Abzug, New Left
lawyer active in peace and the Women's Libera-
tion movements, appears headed for victory on
the Demorcatic ticket in New York City's 9th
district. .
"Both men and women have reacted with good
gusto to my slogan, 'This woman's place is in the
House,'" says Mrs. Abzug, 49, a founder of the
New Democratic Coalition and Women Strike
for Peace.
Two black women running for Congress are

Mrs. Evers is given little chance of unseating
Republican Rep. John Rousselot, a John Birch
Society officer, in suburban Los Angeles where
she campaigns on a "moderation-versus-extrem-
ism" theme.
Mrs. Jennings is expected to run poorly on
Chicago's South Side against her Democratic
opponent, Ralph Metcalfe, also black, who has the
powerful support of Mayor Richard J. Daley. Mrs.
Jennings says she's received no help from the
Republican Party, financial -or otherwise, despite
her strong support of theNixon administration.
At the opposite extreme of the political spec-
trum is Republican Phyllis Schlafly, 46, who is
giving six-term Democratic incumbent George
Shipley the toughest challenge of his career in
Illinois' downstate 23rd district.

Mrs. Schlafly, whose book, "A Choice Not an
Echo,' is credited with helping Barry Goldwater
win the 1964 GOP presidential nomination, has
had the help of Goldwater and conservatives
across the country in her third try for Congress.
' "You know where I stand," states the cam-
paing slogan of Louise Day Hicks, Boston city
councilwomen who won wide publicity but narrow-
ly lost a mayoral election in 1967 with her stand
against school busing.
Standing on her slogan, Mrs. Hicks passed out
"position papers" emphasizing "crime in the
streets."
Endorsed by retiring House Speaker John W.
McCormack, whose seat she hopes to capture,
Mrs. Hicks looks like an easy winner in Massachu-
setts' 9th district, a Democratic stronghold.

CINEMA II

WOMEN HAVE RECEIVED 250 of a possible 3,000 White
House appointments, says the National Federation of Business
and Professional Women's Clubs (BPW).
BPW is attempting to get more women into policy-making gov-
ernment positions. The Federation runs a 1,000 member Talent Bank,
"ranging from architects to zoologists," drawn from 15 member
organizations.
The Federation submits names of qualified women from the
"bank" to the White House when top civil service and commission
jobs open up.
So far BPW has had only one success, an appointment to a federal
school finance committee, but feels it has made some impact-the
White House now calls for suggestions, a Federation spokesman says.
TEACHERS STRUCK PHILADELPHIA'S public school sys-
tem despite a no-strike injunction yesterday, but school officials
reported they managed to keep education going at 238 of the sys-
tem's 275 schools.
Twenty-six schools were unable to open or closed shortly after
the regular starting time, 11 ran half-day schedules and the others!
continued uninterrupted, according to a spokesman for the school
system.j
Attendance was down, however, with some schools reporting only
about one fourth of their pupils showing up.
U.S. B-52 BOMBERE smothered the Ho Chi Minh trail with
bombs again yesterday, beginning a second week of saturation
raids against the North Vietnamese supply line.
About 30 of the Thailand-based bombers - virtually all the op-

day.
There was fresh evidence that the North Vietnamese and Viet
Cong were reinfiltrating their former sanctuaries in eastern and
southeastern Cambodia, military sources reported.
The sustained bombing in Laos is aimed at smashing the "dry;
season" push by North Vietnam to move war materials to its troops
in Cambodia and South Vietnam.

OPEN CITY

um here, the hijackers probably
would be tried in Turkey for
felonies, including murder. No
charges have been filed against
them yet, officials said, in connec-
tion with the death of plane's
stewardess.
The Russians who, engineered
the first successful hijack of a
Soviet airliner to a foreign land
were identified as Brazinskas Ko-
royero, 46, and his son Algedas, 18.
Turkish newspapers identified
them'Thursday as of Jewish orig-
in but a Foreign Ministry spokes-
man said Friday they were not.
Meanwhile, passengers and two
wounded crewmen from the hi-
jacked plane flew home yesterday,
along with the body of a hostess
slain in the episode.
Chief pilot Valery Adejov, who
underwent surgery for a critical
gunshot wound in the chest, re-
mained in Turkey.
The Antonov-24 jetliner of Aero-
flot, which was diverted from its
scheduled domestic flight in the
Soviet Union to the Turkish town
of Trabzon, also remained in Tur-
key. Authorities have pledged to
return it to Russia but have not
said when they will do so.
Forty-five passengers, the co-
pilot and the radioman from the
hijacked plane left on another
Antonov-24 sent from Russia to
Trabzon to get them. The plane
also carried the body of Nadezhda
Kurchenko, 18, the hostess killed
by bullets as she blocked the door!
to the pilot's compartment.
Also wounded in the airborne
shooting were the copilot and the
radioman.

Sadat ets
90% vote,*
In Egypt
Foreign minister
blames U.S. aid
for extended war
CAIRON(A) - Anwar Sadat,
chosen to lead Egypt as successor
to the late President Gamal Abdel
Nasser, received 90.04 per cent ap-
proval in Thursday's voting, In-
terior Minister Shaarawy Gomaa
announced yesterday.
Sadat, 52, acting president since
Nasser died Sept. 28, was the sole
candidate. Voters had a chance to
say yes or no.
Gomaa said 7.1 million persons
cast valid ballots out of 8.4 million
registered voters. A total of 6.4
million voted yes, the others no.
In Egypt's last previous presi-
dential vote, in 1965, Nasser won
99.9 per cent of the votes.
The election, said Gomaa; prov-
ed "the immortal Nasser did not
leave us in a vacuum but left in-
stead a firm will."
Egypt is "facing the gravest
challenges following in the path
of Nasser. May God bless our na-
tion as a bastion of Arabism," he
concluded.
Sadat will be sworn in at a spe-
cial meeting of Egypt's National
Assembly Saturday night.
Meanwhile, at the United Na-
tions in New 'York Foreign Min-
ister Mahmoud Riad of Egypt de-
clared yesterday: "The United
States bears squarely the respon-
sibility for the continuation of the
state of war in the Middle East."
In a policy speech before the
25th anniversay session of the UN
General Assembly, the Egyptian
minister said the United States
had removed itself as a possible
peacemaker by its military aid to
Israel.
Riad, in his first speech here
since the death of President Gamal
Abdel Nasser, lashed out at Israel
as an aggressor but much of his
speech was directed at the United
States.
"The United States has serious-
ly jeopardized a path capable of
achieving peace in the Middle
East, he declared, adding that the
United States lacked seriousness
with regard to Middle East peace.
