Vcneman of the Health, Education and Welfare Department that Mr. Nixon Is considering vetoing an increase of that magnitude. After an 82-4 Senate vole on the Social Security provision, the House followed suit, 302 to 35. Earlier, the House defeated, 253 to 83, an effort to substitute a 10 percent raise. The White House said Mr.

Nixon was not expected to act on the measure last night because of the late hour the printed measure was to reach there. Some action or comment was expected today. 7V The contract dispute between Northwest Airlines and its 1,000 striking pilots was at a temporary standoff Friday, with each side waiting to see what the other will do.

Democrats, however, discounted this possibility. The bill also contains urgently needed authority for Treasury borrowing and provisions for tax relief for flood sufferers. A Associated Press ft V' yr jv fw' Hp election i By Catherine Watson Staff Writer The Minneapolis City Council voted 11 lo 2 Friday to override Mayor Charles Slenvig's veto of an ordinance changing the election date for city officials from spring to November. The change extends by six months the terms of elected city officials, including the mayor, school board members, park and recreation board members, and aldermen.

Aldermen Vern Anderson, 10th Ward, and Jens Christensen, Glh Ward, voted against the change. Christensen was the only alderman to vote against the ordinance whim the Council originally passed it on June 9. Yesterday he repeated his original reason for objecting to it: No elected official should vote to lengthen his own term, he said. Anderson, in explaining his change of vote, said he voted reluctantly for the ordinance the first time. The aldermen made brief speeches before casting their votes.

Several stressed the need for the city's elected officials, including the mayor, to be freed from the necessities of spring campaigning so they can lobby at the Stale Legislature for the city's needs. John Cairns, 2nd Ward alderman, said that pressure against the election-date change was coming from persons interested in changing "the makeup of at least one of the elected boards" the school board, he and others said later. Cairns also spoke of the "thinness of the reasons" for the mayor's veto. Stenvig said he vetoed the ordinance because it extended the terms of current officials and because a fall election would cause conflicts with city-budget procedures.

When the defendant, David Gutknecht, angrily confronted Judge Philip Neville over the apparent severity of the sentence, Judge Neville replied, "You are not the run-of-the-mill case as I see it."

The vote yesterday represented a turnabout in McGov-ern's fortunes, which plummeted a day earlier when the committee voted to take away 151 California delegates from the South Dakotan. The reversal was accomplished when some blacks and women deserted a coalition forged on Thursday by the anli-McGovern forces on the committee led principally by Sen. Hubert II. Humphrey of Minnesota. But the key element in yesterday's victory for McGovern was provided by California's ten delegates on the committee.

In (he vole unsealing the California delegates, Humphrey received votes from five of Illinois' six members. Meanwhile, the Californians were disqualified under committee rules for voting on their own challenge. Yesterday, however, the same rule deprived Humphrey of bis Illinois backers, while the California representatives voted as a block to unseat Daley.

The Democratic Credentials Commit tee voted Friday night to oust Chicago Mayor Richard Daley and 58 of his supporters from their delegate posts at the national convention.

The committee, on a 71-to-Gl vole, found Daley guilty of flagrant violations of party reform rules and moved to replace the mayor's uncommitted delegation with a group consisting in part of 40 or 43 supporters of South Dakota Sen. George McGovern. The committee action, which is sure to be appealed both to the courts and the full convention next, month in Miami Beach, was based on findings by San Francisco hearing examiner Cecil Toole. Poole found after a series of hearings that the Chicago delegation, consisting of ward committeemen and a number of' relatives, was hatidpicked and backed by the Daley-bossed machine. The Daley organization's reliance on closed-door procedures and the use of partisan muscle served to predetermine the results of the primary election last March in which national convention delegates were picked, Poole said.

'I he slate-making procedures were in violation of guidelines formulated by the reform commission once headed by McGovern, the examiner said. The delegation also fell far short of paily requirements that blacks, Chicanos, women and young people be fairly represented, Poole found. Immediately after the vole, one of Daley's delegates, Edward Burke, said, "The Democratic ticket is on a collision course with disaster in November."

McGovern's chances of reversing the committee's motion on California were clearly improved as a result of yesterday's action.
