The union reached a three-year contract with Ford Motor company Sept. 17, and with Chrysler Corp. two weeks later. Union negotiators were ex pected to make similar con tract demands of American that they did with the Big Three, but jn view of the size and competitive position of AMC, they were expected to make some allowances.

After all, it is not custom ary for this sub-cabinet post to go to so such a young man, on whose shoulders much of the day-to-day responsibility rests for running the show es pecially when the Interior secretary is out of town. Asked about his reliance upon youthful aides, Seaton declared: "When a fellow gets as old as I am, he needs young fel lows around to do the work." Seaton is all of 48. Maybe he feels his "age" because he is no longer the youngest member of President Eisen hower's cabinet. Attorney General -William Rogers, 45, is the youngest, and Treasury Secretary Robert B. Ander son, 48, is a few months younger than Seaton. Another cabinet newcomer, Defense Secretary Neil H. McElroy is 52. Other cabinet officials are in their late 50s or 60s, and Secretary of State' John Fos ter Dulles is 70. Able Men Promoied Seaton said he also believes in promotion of able young men. Bennett's rise in the de partment demonstrates that point. He was legislative counsel at Interior during the McKay realm, was made an assistant to Seaton in 1956, promoted to solicitor in 1957 and promoted to undersecre tary this year. A native of Colorado, Ben nett served on the staff of the PROPOSES RATE HIKE Washington-(UPD-Postmaster master General Arthur E.

Previously he was a trial attorney for the anti- monoply section of the Fed eral Trade Commission. He has been a workhorse for Sea ton in many fields, including minerals and power and recla mation. Moving into Bennett's spot as chief legal officer at In terior will be a still younger man, George W. Abbott, 35, of Grand Island, Neb. He has been one of Seaton's special assistants for the past year. Respect of Both Parties Abbott also came to Interi or from Capitol Hill, where he served as counsel to the House Interior Committee for four years under both Repub lican and Democratic control, an indicator of the respect he gained among members of both parties. Abbott has a deep grasp of Indian prob lems, especially the Klamath situation, public land quest ions and reclamation. He was instrumental in developing legislation designed to limit the Defense Department from gobbling up vast western land reservations without getting congressional consent. Seaton's legislative counsel, the man chiefly responsible for dealing with Congress over legislation, is still young er, Theodore F. Stevens, 34, of Fairbanks, Alaska. Former ly U. S. Attorney at Fair banks, Stevens carried the major load on Seaton's staff this past year in connection with the successful crusade for Alaskan statehood. He's set to go next year to try to get Hawaii in.

Problems Resolved These men make up . the main elements of Seaton's sec retariat. Instead of delegating the heavy decisions down to the chiefs of Interior's agen cies, such as the Reclamation Bureau or Bureau of Indian Affairs, Seaton places this load upon himself and this tightly knit staff of trusted assistants. It is in their staff conferences that the toughest, most delicate or politically ex plosive problems are resolved. Beneath this secretariat, Seaton has made relatively few alterations in the chief positions. When Congress did not confirm the nomination of ex-Rep. Wesley D'Ewart of Montana as assistant secre tary for public lands, Seaton replaced the 66-year-old D' Ewart with Roger Earnest, 44, of Phoenix. And when Felix Wormser stepped out as assis tant secretary of Interior, for minerals, Seaton replaced him with Royce A. Hardy Jr., 37, of Henderson, Nev. Young Bennett moved into GONE HUNTING!

McKay- Man Eased Out The only elder exception to the emphasis on youth in Seaton's new official family is Ross L. Leffler, 72, of Pitts burg, who is in the recently created post of assistant sec retary of fisheries. During the reorganization of the Fish and Wildlife Service, Seaton in ef fect eased out John Farley, a controversial McKay appoin tee from California, and pro moted Arnie Suomela of Ore gon from assistant director to the new post of commis sioner of fish and wildlife.
