The Daily Collegian -6 Nuclear freeze proposal survives dilution attempt By TOM RAUM Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON With plenty of votes to spare, the House yesterday rejected efforts to dilute a nuclear freeze resolution labeled "a formula for permanent insecurity" by President Reagan. House Democratic leaders remained confident of victory for the largely symbolic call for a "mutual and verifiable" halt in the arms race. But, with 39 amend ments still pending, the House quit work on the mea sure in the early evening, putting off further consideration until next week. • By 229-190, the Democratic-run chamber rejected a major modification proposed by Rep. Elliot H. Levitas, D-Ga., that would have permitted older nuclear weap ons to be replaced by newer ones in lieu of a flat freeze, with the new ones replacing the old ones in a one-for two "strategic build-down." Later, the House turned back, 219-195, a bid by Rep. Hank BrOwn, R-Colo., that would have endorsed the administration's insistence on reductions in U.S. and Soviet arsenals in advance of any freeze. In its place, the House agreed to wording suggested by freeze proponent Rep. Jim Leach, R-lowa, that any reduc tions in nuclear arms could only be negotiated after a freeze was in place. Speaker Thomas F. O'Neill, D-Mass., said despite the House's slow progress, the resolution would "win quite easily" in a final vote despite furious lobbying by the president and ranking officers of his Cabinet. "If we don't finish it today, we'll finish it next week . . . We've got plenty of time," O'Neill said. Many of the remaining amendments were filed by Republicans and defense-minded conservative Demo crats who claim the proposal, although nonbinding, could undermine the president's ability to negotiate with the Soviet Union. Levitas told the House his "build-down" proposal would give the president more flexibility. But freeze proponent Rep. Edward J. Markey, D- Walesa seized, questioned 4 By SYLVESTER KRUPPA Associated Press Writer . GDANSK, Poland Lech Wale : sa, chief' of the outlawed Solidarity labor federation, was seized. and • interrogated by police for nearly five hours yesterday about a clan .- destine meeting with underground .4 union leaders. "As a free man, I have a right to meet with anyone, even criminal elements, so long as the meeting has no criminal intent," Walesa said after he returned to his apart- Washington promises era of 'healing' By SHARON COHEN Associated Press Writer CHICAGO Harold Washington yester day promised an "open-handed, healing" administration as Chicago's first black mayor, but his defeated Republican 'oppo nent skipped a promised unity luncheon and left for a Florida vacation. • Bernard Epton, who lost a quest to be the city's first Republican mayor in 52 years, dispatched his brother to the reconciliation meeting with a note offering "heartfelt congratulations" and pledging his "total support " Epton also apologized for missing the luncheon he had said he would attend, win or lose. He said it was impossible for him to attend and Washington said he was not offended. With 99 percent of the ballots counted, Washington had 656,727 or 51.4 percent of the votes to 617,159 or 48.3 percent for Epton and 3,725 votes for Socialist candidate Ed. War ren. The election of Washington, a two-term Democratic congressman,. was hailed by several of the nation's other black big-city mayors and national Democrats, who had rallied to his side as many Chicago party regulars defected to Epton. "It will stir up the hopes of black voters," said former United Nations ambassador Andrew Young, the second black to serve as mayor of Atlanta. Some Democrats who bolted in the elec tion remained on the sidelines, but Alder man Roman Pucinski, who had supported Epton, promised to work with Washington. Pucinski said the way the new mayor con ducts his administration would be key to allaying fears among whites. The 60-year-old Washington captured vir tually unanimous black support but won the backing of only 18 percent of white voters, according to an Associated Press-WMAQ TV poll of voters leaving polling places. He said people are "a little tired" of the ten sions that surfaced in his contest with Epton and promised to move swiftly to bring the city together "The damage I think can be assuaged very quickly by an open-hand, healing unify ing attitude," Washington said on CBS Morning News. "It will take a little more time, it won't go on ad infinitum." Nevertheless, Washington said Chicago Mass., called the Levitas proposal "just a public relations cover for the arms build-up the Reagan administration wants." The Levitas amendment was viewed by both sides as a key vote, perhaps the best chance freeze opponents would have to modify the proposal to make it more to the administration's liking. O'Neill suggested that freeze leaders would be able to fend off all other major amendments. The chamber first took up the legislation last month, but leaders ordered it put it aside after a more than 12 hours of debate failed to produce a final vote. President Reagan, in a letter read during House debate, said the freeze proposal would "hinder, not help" efforts to reduce the risk of nuclear war. "Instead, it would undercut our efforts to negotiate with, the Soviet Union for real reductions and leave us in a position of permanent disadvantage," Reagan said in a "Dear Bill" letter read to colleagues by Rep. William S. Broomfield, the senior Repubican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. "By preserving current Soviet nuclear advantages and preventing us from replacing our own aging and increasingly vulnerable weapons systems, the freeze would be a formula for permanent insecurity. But Rep. Clement J. Zablocki, D-Wis., chairman of the Foreign Affairs panel and chief author of the freeze resolution, defended the document as a move to help "restore stability and sanity" in the world. "Nothing would be frozen until the negotiations (with the Soviets) would be concluded," Zablocki said. "If the Soviet Union does not agree to a mutual and verifiable freeze, there will be no freeze." White House spokesman Larry Speakes acknowl edged that freeze forces 'still appeared to have the upper hand. "Our main feeling on it is that we will not support any legislation any variation of the legislation which will signal a freeze at a disadvantage or that would prevent our commitment to modernizing our forces," Speakes said. ment in the early evening. Walesa, who disclosed Tuesday he had met with the Soldarity un derground during the Weekend, said he was too tired to discuss the police interrogation and would hold a news conference on Wednesday. Walesa's spokesman, Adam Kinaszewski, said Walesa "didn't confirm or deny" to the police that he met with the Solidarity under ground. "He simply refused to make any kind of statement (to police)," The 'Solidarity chief was seized Harold Washington residents must deal with the racial divi sions. "They can't bury it because that wouldn't solve the problem." The City Council met Wednesday and set April 29 for Washington's inauguration to the $60,000-a-year post. About 40 percent of Chicago's population is black. Washington gained his 39,568-vote margin victory with a huge outpouring from blacks, who gave him 97 percent of their votes, according to the exit poll. Washington also had strong support from Hispanics, who gave him 59 percent, and white support in the liberal North Side lakefront area. Mayor Jane M. Byrne and Cook County State's Attorney Richard M. Daley, defeat ed by Washington in the Feb. 22 primary, attended the unity luncheon at the Conrad Hilton. Byrne promised she would be as helpful as possible, while Daley urged vot ers to join ranks "We have to get on with gover s ning the city," he said. Also at the private luncheon was Cardinal Joseph Bernardin of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese. The vanquished Republican was criticized about 7:45 a.m. EST and as police bundled him off in a red van for questioning, he yelled to reporters, "Tell the whole world they are breaking the law." It was the second time Walesa was detained since he was released from an 11-month martial law in ternment in November. He was picked up by police and driven around Gdansk for nine hours Dec. 16 to keep him from addressing a rally outside the Lenin shipyard, where Solidarity was born in Au gust 1980. in news reports for bitter remarks late . Tuesday as the vote was counted. In a television interview, Epton wished Wash ington well in coping with city finances but made a snide reference to the congress man's 1970's no-contest plead to charges of failing to file federal income tax returns. "Maybe he'll learn to pay his bills prompt ly . . . and his taxes," Epton said. Then, in an apparent reference to black friends who abandoned him in the bitter race, the weary millionaire lawyer said, ,"I certainly will save a lot of money in the future on charita ble causes." Despite the racially polarized vote, John McDermott, publisher of The Chicago Re porter, a newsletter focusing on racial is sues, said he doesn't foresee a "permanent division. It's not hopeless." The key will be Washington's administra tion, McDermott said. "If he is a success a very large number of whites will come back into the Democratic - Party." The 18 percent white vote is "fairly typ ical" in a city that chooses its first black mayor,' McDermott said. "Usually the first time out, there is a fear and division." In Atlanta, Young won the 1981 race with 10 percent of the white vote. About two thirds of the city's population is black. Across the country, black leaders hailed Washington's victory, some saying it dem onstrated the power of the black vote while others saw proof that voters can rise above the issue of race. AP Laserpholo "The majority of Chicagoans showed in the final analysis that they believe a mayor should be elected on the basis of ability, not on an irrelevant factor such as race," Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley said. "A person who happens to be black or someone who happens to be female or what ever can effectively and fairly serve the people in this city as in any other city in the country," he said. John E. Jacob, president of the National Urban League, said the lesson of the bitter campaign between the black Democrat Washington and white Republican Bernard Epton was "the latent power of the black vote." "Any candidate for national ,office who ignores the potential voting power of blacks, other minorities and the basic core of 20 to 25 percent of white voters that regularly support minority candidates, does so at his peril," Jacob said. •„ • •: i ).' ~y ', " g !!!!!!

Benjamin Hooks, executive director of the NAACP, said the victory was a defeat for "the most dismal forces of racism and emotional irrationality." Others said it would open political doors to blacks and other minorities and speculated that a black would be a real contender in the race for the Democratic presidential notni nation next year.

Julian Bond, re minding the Democratic Party that blacks Rizzo downplays victory By LEE LINDER Associated Press Writer PHILADELPHIA Frank L. Rizzo, the white mayoral candidate'who once made a crack comparing Harold Washington to gangster Al Capone, said yesterday that Washington's victory in Chicago is not an issue in Rizzo's campaign against a black man.• Rizio's opponent in next: month's Demo cratic mayoral primary, W. Wilson Goode, said Washington's election Tuesday as Chi cago's first black mayor "speaks for itself." "Chicago has spoken, and that's it," Rizzo said, "and Chicago isn't the issue in our campaign, it's going to be based on issues between me and my opponent." Rizzo is running in the May 17 Democratic primaiy in the nation's fourth-largest city in an effort to regain City Hall after a four year absence. The city's charter barred him from more than two consecutive terms. "The major issues," Rizzo said, "involve jobs, the fiscal mess our city finds itself in, and the deterioration of services during the past three years my opponent was responsi ble for them." Goode said the Chicago election says "people here can do the same thing, that people here can in fact look at those folks running for office and can indeed pick someone who happens to be black, and •I believe in the end you can pick someone who is competent over race " As city managing director, Goode was the highest-ranking black in the administration of retiring Mayor William Green. He re signed from Green's administration as re quired by law to run for mayor. Thursday, April 14 Steel plant reopens in Midland SIMMINEI MIDLAND, Beaver . County (AP) Workers are making steel again for the first time in.a year at the mill that extends nearly the length of the , town and • that once dominated• its economy. "It was a shutdown steel plant and we started it back up. We've lit the furnace. We've poured some steel," plant spokesman Jack Wal ters said yesterday.:, r ~.. }, Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp. acquired the 75-year:old former Crucible Stainless and Alloy plant this year from Colt , Industries, which had closed the facility and dismissed about 5,000 workers. Walters said about 250 people, including 180 hourly workers, are now working at the facility, re named the Midland Plant of the Jones & Laughlin Specialty Steel Division. MEE "We're heading for a standard operating rate of about 10 to 12 heats a day," said Walters, ex plaining that a heat equals about 100 tons-of steel. The last heat was poured in April 1982 and the plant closed in October. Colt announced in March 1982 that it would close the plant if it could not find a buyer. A J&L division bought the plant for a reported $B.l million. Production at the plant was orig inally scheduled to resume. April 18, Walters said, but was moved up to this week after rehabilitation work and training programs . were completed early. • • "It's been a long time coming," said Davie Rawlings of nearby Hammondsville; Ohio, who had worked at the plant for 27 years before being laid off. He was one of the first workers rehired. =EN Rawlings said he was•optimistic that more laid-off workers would be recalled, but Walters said he could not• comment on the compa ny's plans. • "With our contract, (J&L) just can't afford not to, take ofrand fly now. I foresec a steady stream of slabs," Rawlings said. Thomas Graham, J&L's chair man and Chief executive officer, told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in January that the Midland plant "is an opportunity to reduce our costs" in stainless steel produc tion. APLaserphoto, have always supported it, regardless of the candidate's rate. Detroit Mayor Coleman Young said Wash ington's victory was "a very positive step forward for the democratic process in this country" and "came because he was able to appeal to voters from all sectors . . . a fact which bodes well for the future of that city." Illinois Comptroller Roland Burris, the state's highest black office-holder,' saw Washington's win as a boost to black mo rale. Goode said he intended "to do what I've done all along which is to run a citywide campaign, to meet and work in all commu nities, to campaign in all communities." "I've done that in the past, and I will not do anything differently in the future at all." Asked if Washington's,slim victory over white Republican Bernard Epton, in which Washington collected 98 percent of the black vote, would encourage a similar turnout of blacks here, Goode said, "I really don't know. "You'd have to talk to the black Voters," he said. "But if it happens I would be pleased." • Goode, however, added that he thinks "people ought to see this campaign not based on race but based upon two candi dates, two who have styles, two.wifo have records and two who in the end will have to talk about the future of this city. On March 28"Rizzo said of Washington, "if Chicago elects him mayor they . havd a big, fat headSche. If they elect a guy like Wash ington, they ought to go to a grave and dig up Al Capone and make him mayor." Rizzo has predicted he will be supported by at least 20 percent of the black Demo crats here, but on Wednesday he , zlclined . to make any estimate. Of the city's 785,000 registered Demo crats, about 44 percent, or 350,000, are black. The city has a total of nearly 1 million voters. Goode said he did not think Washington's election would give more momentum to his campaign, pointing out that current polls show him 19 points ahead. "And when you are 19 points in front, you indeed have momentum," he added: state news briefs Ex-steelworker gets computer job PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Laid-off steelworker Ron Bricker yester day received a job repairing computers for Radio Shack, a week after he handed his resume to President Reagan and asked for help in finding work.
