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.

a good look at the $1 bill in your
wallet. 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. The gov
ernment has not started working
on a new dcsiRn yet, but the sizo
and color probably will be kept
the same.

Negro voter registration demon
strations.
"If Bobby Kennedy or any of
his family came down here paint
ed black, they wouldn't send
troops but missiles," the Chicago
Negro comedian said.
"Police here are a little lower
than dogs." he told the Clarks
dale gathering.
Gregory planned to return here
today but there was no indication
whether there would be any new
demonstrations.
A policeman grabbed Gregory
in one of a scries of vcter demon
stration incidents Tuesday, twist
ed his arm behind him and
marched him across the street
when the comedian refused a
command to, move on.
Gregory said another policeman
struck him in the back as he was
being hustled away but did not
injure him.
The entertainer came here to
lend moral support to week-long
voter registration demonstrations
which have been broken up by
police holding police dogs
leashes and by barricades.

Amended Mass Transit Bill
Gets Labor Leader Support
WASHINGTON' (L'Pll Labor peril defense and throw the space
NEW YORK (UPI) - Richard
Burton's wife flew into the city
Tuesday night, leaving her hus
band behind in London with Liz
Taylor and announcing
agreement to separate.
Notice of the separation between
Burton and his wife, Sybil, was
released by Mrs. . Burton's law

er Mrs. Buton flew here from
Europe with the couple's two
daughters.
Frosch's statement said that all
financial and other arrangements
between the couple had been con
cluded but that "divorce has not
been considered or discussed."
There was some confusion as to
the purpose of Mrs. Burton's

leaders may have given the Ken
nedy administration's $300 million
mass transit bill the boost need
ed for passage in the Senate to
day. 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.
