plans for transition

Dems
maintain
majorities

The newcomers are mostly
younger than the men they re-
placed. They include a rancher,
a governor, a millionaire busi-
nessman, an astronaut who has
walked on the moon, two Japa-
nese - Americans and the heir
to a pickle and catsup fortune.
Incumbents appeared to be
the special target of voter an-
ger. Five Democrats and four
Republicans lost their Senate
seats.
THE CASUALTIES included
Sen. John Tunney, (D-Calif.)
who lost a close race to 70-
year-old Republican S. I. Haya-
kawa, a widely known seman-
ticist and former president of
San Francisco State College.
Hayakawa's strongest asset in
his campaign was the memory
of the hard line he took against
demonstrators during a student
strike in 1968.
Tunney, 42 - year - old son off
former heavyweight boxing
champion Gene Tunney, com-
plained at one point, "I'm run-
ning against a folk hero."
Hayakawa did everything he
could to perpetuate that image.
his trademark was the color-
ful tam - o' - shanter he wore
the daynewspaper and televi-
sion cameras photographed
him during the student strike.
Four first - term Republicans
were beaten. They were Bill
Brock'of Tennessee, J. Glen
Beall of Maryland, James Buck-
ley of Nw York, and Robert
Taft of Ohio.
THEY WERE defeated by,
respectively, James Sasser, aI
Nashville attorney and friend'
of Jimmy Carter; Paul Sar-
banes, a member of the House
from Maryland; Daniel Patrick
Moynihan, the former U. S.
ambassador to the United Na-
tions, and Howard Metzenbaum,
an Ohio businessman who pre-
viously served one year in the
Senate as an appointee.
It may have been a squeaker
for Carter, but most of the 14
governors elected at the same
time can claim a sizable man-
date - no nailbiters anywhere
except in Missouri, where Chris-
topher Bond, hailedras a comer
in GOP politics four years ago
when he became the nation's
youngest governor; was one of
two incumbents defeated for re-
election. His Democratic oppon-
ent, Kansas City prosecntor
Joseph Teasdale, edged him
with almost an even split.
THE GOP came out of the
election with a net loss of one
governorship. Democrats now
have 37 states, Republicans 12,
and there is one independent.
Democrats won nine of the gov-
ernor elections Tuesday and
Reniblicans took five.
Democrats had won 288 races
to the Republicans' 142. If
trends continned in the remain-
ing races, Democrats would
have a 292-143 maiority com-
oared to the previous 290-145
margin.

Mead debunks myths of aging

"This is, I think, an invention
that can spread."
"The school is the center of
the American community, and
when it is not, it is a bad com-
munity," she said.
"WE NOW HAVE virtually
no place where three genera-
tions can be near each other,"
she told the Hill audience.
"This is the most serious prob-
lem that we are facing."
Mead said the federal govern-
ment must plan communities
which will encourage three gen-
erationg to live together, de-
claring "We can't do this by
ourselves."

Ford, 38,468,797 votes, or 48
per cent.
WITH THE OUTCOME of the
Oregon and Ohio races still un-
clear, Carter had won 272 elec-
toral votes and was leading in
the Buckeye state for 25 more.'
Ford earned 235 electoral votes;
Oregon, where he was leading,
would give him a total of 241.
INDEPENDENT candidate Eu-
gene McCarthy, who had said
he didn't care if he spoiled the
race for Carter, wo~ 655,769i
popular votes, about one per
cent.
Carter went home to tiny
Plains, Ga., at dawn, after a,
tumultuous victory rally in At-
lanta, and told a home-town{
crowd: "I told you I didn't!
intend to lose.";
Later, in the White House,
Ford telephoned Carter in
Plains for what was described
as a warm, friendly conversa-
tion that touched briefly on1
plans for the transition to' a'
new Democratic administration. ,
HOARSE, FORD turned the
telephone over to staff. chief
Richard Cheney, who read the
telegram Ford sent offering
close cooperation and support
for the incoming administration I
of Carter and Vice President-
elect Water Mondale..
"Sen. Mondale and I will take
full advantage of that offer,"
Carter told reporters at mid-
afternoon. "Our staffs are al-
ready beginning to make transi-'
tion arrangements this after-
noon.
"I.deeply appreciate the
President's call and his graci-
ous expression of congratula-
tions and cooperation," the
President-elect said./ "I express-
ed my admiration for him and
for the strong, well-planned and I
effective campaign that he ran.
CARTER SAID that "one of
the first tasks facing any new
president is the unification of
our country after a close and!
hard-fought election. President 
Ford's characteristically graci-1
ous statements today will make
that job much easier for me."
Carter said that "I look for-I
ward to working with President
Ford and others like him who
even though divided by party
are united by common devotion
to this country and the well-
being of our people."
Ford plans to continue the
work of the presidency, advanc-
ing such projects as SALT ne-
gotiations, progress in the Mid-
dle East and efforts to. control
spending and inflation, between
now and the Jan. 20 inaugura

tion, Press Secretary Ron Nes-
sen said.
FORDIS PLANNING a vaca-
tion trio to Palm Springs, Calif.,
probably departing Sunday and
staying for a week at a private
home there.
Meanwhile, Carter's transi-
tion office in Atlanta already
is at work on a Carter budget,
to amend the one Ford will pre-
sent before he leaves office on
Jan. 20. He also has said he will
seek legislation that would al-
low him to begin immediately
on govrnment reorganization.
"OH. W'LL YES, he'll be ac-
tive," - *1Charles Kirbo, the
Atlanta Dawyer who is one of
Carter's closest advisers. ". . . I
think you'll see him moving be-
fore the end of the year to get
bills introduced to give him the
authority, to authorize those
nioves he wants to make."
Carter said he ,planned to
spend several days a week in!
Washington, working on transi-
tion and the programs of the
new administration, until the in-
auguration.
He said he had a list of about
75 names as potential appoint-
ees to Cabinet and other posts,
and most of them, an aide said,
will be "people you've probably
never heard of."
