Newspaper Page TextPAGE 2-A HERALD AM) NEWS. Klamath Fells, Ok. Wednesday. April J. 196J Windy City Mayor Tops Republican CHICAGO UP1 Mayor Rich ard J. Daley remained one of the most powerful Democrat in the nation today despite his smaller-than-expected win over Republi can challenger Benjamin S. Adamowski. Daley won his third six-year term Tuesday but saw his vic tory margin drop from 466.672 votes last time to about 150,000. The Republicans and Independ ents boosted their representation on the 50-member city council to 10. Some political observers said the strong showing would make Adamowski, previously best known for his charges of Cook County vote fraud in the 1960 presidential election, a possible candidate for governor next year. Adamowski, in admitting de feat, said he was "pleased and proud" at his showing. "Here was this great machine that was going to annihilate me with 500,000 votes," he said, "and it came squeaking up to the fin ish line and barely made it." He said he believed he would have won "if more people who call themselves Republicans had voted. A combination of protests over taxes and a recent rash of gang' land-style crime in Chicago were seen as factors in Adamowski's good showing or Daley's poor showing, whichever you prefer. Daley said it was a "great vic tory" and noted that he emerged victorious in one of the largest votes ever cast for a mayor of Chicago. He called the vote "a recognition" of his contributions to the city. 1 emfj-mzr tMWUIst Tit lit Hi DC "Why did you ask Mr. Brown how his wife was? You know he s not married!

Within three or tour years It may be hard to find one that looks like it. Wllh strong bipartisan support, a drive started in Congress Tues- day to give the government au thority to put into circulation a new type of $1 bill. The main purpose: to avert danger that the Treasury by 1065 will exhaust its supply of silver for coinage. The $1 bills now in circula tion are backed 100 per cent by silver. They are called "silver certificates." The new ones would be backed with a 25 per cent gold reserve. They would be called "federal reserve notes." They would look much differ ent, too. If the pending legisla tion is enacted, the $1 bill will undergo its first big change in appearance since it was reduced to handy wallet size In 1029. The design would be changed to make the new bills easily dis tinguished from the old.

Administration leaders predict ed the bill to aid bus and rail facilities in urban areas would pass, but said it would be by a narrow margin. AFL-CIO leaders Tuesday night i ended their opposition to the meas ure after an amendment was at tached to the bill which would protect transit unions if private transportation systems are taken over by municipalities. The bill is the first major New Frontier proposal to come to a showdown in the new session and administration leaders worked hard at gathering enough votes to pass it. The legislation would provide federal grants up to $300 million over a three-year period to cities to help build transit systems thai would move people in and out of town rapidly and reduce traffic congestion. Most Republicans were opposed to the bill but Sen. Jacob Javits, R-N.Y., said he would vote for it, as did several other big-city Republicans. Javits said the ur ban transportation problem had become so severe it was time the federal government stepped in with aid.
