"It's essentially a statistical abberration," McCracken said of the September rise in unemployment and the work week cut. The report said the total of unemployed increased about 75,000, but that the rise was 375,000 on a seasonally adjusted basis because it normally drops sharply in September. Total employment dropped-by 1.6 million as it usually does in September when many young workers quit summer jobs to return to school.

Total emnlovment remained at 78.4 of their previously chilly rela. tions. Assistant Commissioner Harold Goldstein of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which compiles the employment report, said many youths listed as unem ployed and available for work in the Labor Day week probably went back to school shortly afterward and dropped from the jobless rolls. McCracken said a sharp drop of 36 minutes in the average work week probably was attributable to the fact many workers take Labor Day off but don't get paid for it, distorting the figure. The week in which the Labor Department takes its jobs poll among some 35,000 households is set by a Budget Bureau rule.

Results of the poll are projected into a national rate of employment and unemployment. Democratic National Chairman Lawrence F. O'Brien and Democratic congressional lead- WASHINGTON (AP) A sharp rise in unemployment and i an ironic argument about Labor Day have brought a new attack from leaders of organized labor on President Nixon's economic policies. The gloomy job report also gave Democrats more political; ammunition for November's elections, AFL-CIO President Ceorge Meany, who dined with Nixon at the White House last Labor Day, joined key Democrats in attacking Nixon's economic policies after the government reported Friday the jobless rate climbed from 5.1 to 5.5 per cent in September. It was the highest level in nearly seven years.

Nixon administration officials, including chief economic advu er Paul W. McCracken, argued! that the rise probably wasn't ac tually that bad because the survey week happened to include Labor Day. "We are completely unimpressed at this rationalization. The facts speak selves," retorted a s-'ives, for Meany. i for them-'ers also blasted the Nixon ad-spokesman ministration for its economic "They are simply attempting for the rise of 375,000 unem-to brush off the entire sharp rise ployed in September to a total to cop out on their own direct of 4.3 million, responsibility for the rise in un- The September report was the employment since this adminis-last employment report before tration took office," said chief! the November congressional AFL-CIO economist Nathnnipliplertinns nnrl ripmnnrnts hauo II Goldfinger, who was among the 75 labor leaders and their wives the Capitol to a rally Monument Saturday.

Tydings, strongly urged the Nixon administration Saturday to release $9 million extra earmarked for Maryland schools in the aid-to Maryland could force ingress in August over a presidential veto.

Calling the situation "intolerable," Tydings said further delay in channeling the money increases. The senator, who said he was responding to the "urgent pleas of educators throughout Maryland," made his statements in a letter to Eliot L. Richardson, secretary of health, education and welfare. Tydings currently is running for re-election against Republican Rep. J.

Glenn Beall Jr. and Harvey Wilder of the American Party. The additional $9 million for Maryland and higher amounts for other states were inserted by Congress into the original aid-to-education budget submitted by the Nixon administration for the current academic year. Tydings wrote Richardson that he has been told the U.S. Office of Education is distributing money on the basis of the original administration requests.

"If this is correct, I find it an arrogant refusal to heed the unmistakable decision by Con gress to spend more funds than the president requested on the education of our children," the senator said. "By overriding the president's veto of the HEW appropriation. over two thirds of the Congress decided that the nation's schools urgently needed more federal aid." he said. Tydings wrote that he supported overriding President Nixon's veto because he felt the higher appropriations marked a beginning of a reordering of priorities toward domestic problems. "Now it appears that your department is attempting to frustrate the will of Congress and short change the schools of our nation," he told Richardson.

Rash Of Accidents Keeps Police Busy As rain fell Saturday night a series of five autombile accidents were reported to the Salisbury barracks of the Maryland State police. A spokesman said they happened within 90 minutes from 8 to 9:30 p.m. Little information was available late in the evening as officers had their hands full investigating the accidents. However, it was believed that no serious injuries resulted. Continui-d From Paee One ARABS with moderates among the guerrilla movement, suggested the spokesman.

"We are not interested in forming a government in Amman, not because we are idealists or dreamers, but because we are realists," he said. "If we became the government of Jordan we should become part of Arab disagreements and disoutes. It would mean that if we smiled at Syria, Iraq would not like it." At the same time, extremists in the Jordan army also have become more reasonable said the spokesman. Continued From Page One MARCH There was in fact little trouble at the rally; only a few minor skirmishes between marchers in hard hats and youthful counter-demonstrators. One group of men in plastic hard hats took a North Vietnamese flag away from a long-haired youth and burned it.

Washington police said about 25 people were arrested for disorderly conduct as a result of incidents at the rally. Mclntire said President Nixon "is responsible himself for the strategy that is keeping Mr. Ky from speaking to us." He also said Secretary of State William P. Rogers tried to block the Ky visit. American flags fluttered in the warm October sunlight.

There were Confederate flags, too, and the banners of Christianity and of Nationalist China. A drum beat cadence for the procession to a speechmaking rally at the Washington Monument. Horns sounded hymns and marches. One rank of marchers carried a curb-to-curb banner: "God Bless America, land that I love, stand beside her and guide her." The march itself was apparently trouble-free a dozen young war protesters were escorted to the sidewalk when they tried to crowd in at the head of the procession. But there were scuffles at the Monument grounds when a group of more than 100 counter-demonstrators turned up and encountered victory marchers in hard hats.

Police broke up two skirmishes, each involving about a dozen people, and led away three cf the demonstrators. Mclntire thanked the police for stopping what he described as a band of hippies, and told his supporters to leave them alone. Stock Market By DAVID BURKE AP Business Writer NEW YORK (AP) The stock market drifted uncertainly most of the past week but closed Friday with a strong upsurge. Uncertainty in the Middle East following Nasser's death and concern over the effects of the General Motors strike gave a bearish touch to investor psy chology which had been growing increasingly bullish, analysts said. The optimism and pessimism tended to cancel one another out, they explained, setting the market along a drifting course.

Much of the week's activity was concentrated in the glam our and more speculative is sues, rather than in the blue chips, Monte Gordon, an analyst with Bache said. The upswing Friday took in the blue chips as well as the speculative issues, said, a sign they called encour pnrnur. i aging. Friday's 5Vi point jump in the Dow Jones average of 30 industrial stocks was largely responsible for the 4.39 point gain the blue chip indicator showed for the week. The average ended, the week at the 766.16 mark.

Prices on the American Stock Exchange also gained during the week as the price change index increased by 0.45 to 22.79. Of the 20 most-active issues on the New York Stock Exchange, 14 advanced, five declined, and one remained unchanged. Most active on the Big Board was Telex, losing 14 to 20'4, on 1.27 million shares. British Petroleum was second most active, gaining to 9. Most of the British Petroleum activity came from a 962.000-share block traded Friday, the sixth largest block in Big Board history.

Continued From Page One NASSER creasing hope among Washington authorities that the transition will go more smoothly than they had thought.

Most encouraging element in the situation so far is considered here to be Russia's adherence to a public policy in favor of peace and a permanent settlement in the Middle East. Nixon administration leaders generally have felt that the Russians do not want the situation to get out of hand and might really consider a peace settlement desirable. As seen here, there are two major problems to be overcome. One is subordination of the Palestinian guerrilla movement to at least the general authority of the Jordanian government or other governments from whose territory they operate. The other is resolution if possible of the quarrel involving Israel and the United States on one hand, and Egypt and Russia, over Egypt's alleged viola tion of the military standstill since the cease-fire took effect along the Suez Aug.

8. iNassers deatn came at the climax of Arab efforts to stop the civil war in Jordan between King Hussein and the Palestinians. The impressions here is that Hussein's authority seems to have survived the crisis though with what effectiveness is not yet clear. Thus there is uncertainty about political stability in Jordan as there is about the effectiveness of the transitional leadership in Egypt. Some officials hope that the issue of alleged cease-fire violations may be compromised to the point where it will no longer be a major barrier to getting peace talks started.

The Egyptians have sought to justify their movement of missile bases in the cease-fire zone with the argument they feared a surprise attack from Israel and wprV. takina iWonci were taxing oetensive meas ures. But Israel has accused them of reinforcing their bases along the canal in blatant disregard of the standstill agreement. Some diplomats speculate that Egypt might remove some of the disDuted bases and Israel might give some assurance that in specified conditions it had no intention of making any surprise attack. 1 my top priority!" Republican congressional candidate Pierre S.

Du Pont IV said Friday. Du Pont called for an annual 5 per cent across-the-board cut in defense spending, if it can be done without jeopardizing the United States or its allies, and halting federal assistance in the supersonic transport program. "Wherever we go in Delaware, whether we are talking to the housewife or the fellow with the pickaxe, we hear the same complaintinflation, inflation, inflation," Du Pont said at a news conference. Federal spending also has been a major campaign issue of John D. Daniello, the Democratic candidate for the state's lone seat in the House of Representatives.

While Daniello has been attacking President Nixon's economic policies, Du Pont put the blame on Congress. 0ne PRESIDENT drove on to Kilfrush House, the 200-year-old secluded country mansion where the Nixons are staying. Here in the green countryside, Nixon is meeting on Sunday with his top advisers on Viet nam peace strategy. The jet-traveling White House announced in advance that there would be no Vietnam pronouncement at this time. But spokesman Ronald L.

Zie. gler refused to rule out the possibility that Nixon may speak to tne nation about Vietnam before election day a month from now Nor would Ziegler say yes or no to reports that the President intends to exceed the withdrawal timetable he set last April 50.000 more U.S.. troops to be withdrawn from Vietnam by Oct. 15 and 150,000 by next May. Called in from Paris for the Vietnam session were the new chief U.S.

envoy to the peace talks, David K.E. Bruce, and the No. 2 U.S. delegate, Philip C. Habib.

Also attending will be Secretary of State William Rogers and security adviser Henry A. Kissinger, who are traveling with the President. Nixon has told foreign leaders during his European trip that the United States prefers to end the conflict by negotiation rather than through the slower Viet-namization process of turning million on a seasonally adjusted basis, the report said. Average pay of some 4a million rank-and-file workers rose 3 cents per hour, largely because many lower-paid youths quit jobs and returned to school. Despite the hourly wage hike, average pay dropped 84 cents a week to $121.36 because of the 36-minute cut in the average work week.

The average paycheck was 3 per cent above a year earlier, but the gain was more than wiped out by the nation's worst inflation in 20 years that has been running at about a 6 per cent rate most of that period. The rise in living costs has eased off somewhat in the last three months.

He was one of about 100 students who lived in two barrack-style buildings and attended classes at what was popularly known around Maryland as the "cow college." In the classroom, Byrd earned his degree in civil engineering in three years. On the gridiron, he was being one of those newfangled quarterbacks who were throwing forward passes.

By 1912, Byrd was football coach, and three years later he began the intensive selling job which resulted in 1920 in the amalgamation of a number of separate schools and colleges into the University of Maryland. Twelve years later Byrd added the university vice presidency to his duties as football coach and athletic director. His elevation to the presidency was due in large measure to his ability in the legislative arena, where the university budget is decided. Before he retired, Byrd-was such an adroit and familiar figure in Annapolis that the mere mention of the name "Curley" was an "alert" signal for state legislators.

Rockefeller called the prisoner revolt an ex-ample of "revolutionary new problems" requiring "revolutionary changes in the system." The rash of disturbances has featured televised jailyard news conferences with prisoners clad in improvised Arabian headdresses loudly making demands to elum officials.

One prisoner i said it was not a riot, but a de mand to be treated as human beings. Nevertheless, in all four jail windows were smashed and debris hurled from the windows. In Brooklyn, a guard captain said tear gas was used in all cellblocks except the one on the fifth floor, where the three hostages were held by 240 prisoners. The modern, 10-story jail holds 1,500 persons, about double its originally intended capacity. After Rockefeller's intervention, two state judges entered the century-old Long Island City-jail in Queens, where the riots began Thursday to hold on-the-spot bail review hearings.

Five hostages were being held there. Rep. Adam Clayton Powell, was denied admission to the Queens facility because. officials said, there wasn't SDace inside. As the Harlem congressman left he told news men he agreed with the prisoners.

Royle was the driver of one of the cars, police said. They said it was not determined immediately who was the driver of the other car, since all three occupants are in serious condition at Beebe Hospital and could not be interviewed.

Heath seized the chance to press on Nixon one of his new government's pet fears what is portrayed as the developing threat of Soviet naval domination of the Indian Ocean. This has been their justification for Britain's proclaimed intention to resume the sales of arms to South Africa. There have been widespread protests against the British plan. British sources said Heath told Nixon the Russians are building up a naval presence in the Indian Ocean powerful enough to disrupt, at a stroke, the vital sealanes used by giant tankers carrying Mideast oil to Britain and Europe.

This is why, he explained, Britain wants to revive an old defense pact with South Africa and sell it ships, planes and other weapons. Twice since June, Nixon's administration has made clear it does not share Britain's view of the danger and that it has no intention itself to break the United Nations embargo on arms sales to South Africa But apparently bowing 4n ,1 apparenuy uowing ioi Heath insistence the President i agreed on a joint American-British study to establish if in fact there is any Soviet naval threat to allied oil routes in the!

The Cairo demonstrations followed prominent display in Egyptian newspapers of the U.S. Senate passage of a bill authorizing unlimited arms sales to Israel.

Cairo's largest demonstration was a march by thousands along Ramses Street to the mosque where Nasser was bur ied. The procession was noisy witn slogans calling for a hard line against Israel but orderly. many ot tne marcners were school children At the mosque the demonstra tors formed a quiet line and filed past Nasser's grave. Police blocked all side streets leading to Ramses Street with barriers, closing it to traffic. In another disclosure, Al Ah ram reported that before Nas ser death Egypt had asked the United States to guarantee that Israel would not attack the mis sile sites in Egypt during the cease-fire.

The paper said the United States did not reply or explain its stand. Lebanese newspapers in stories from Cairo said Nasser's heirs are discussing a Soviet- type "Troika 'or three-mem i ber leadership to avoid a pow- er struggle. The three probably will be selected from what the newspapers called "The post-Nasser top seven." The Lebanese papers expressed the opinon that Nasser's successors would be sure to fol low his policy on Middle East affairs Possibly inspired by Egyptian sources, the papers said Nasser had been willing to settle for a fair deal with Israel, while prepared to fight if necessary. They said Nasser's concepts of a fair deal were Israeli withdrawal from Arab territories occupied in the 1967 war and restoration of Palestinian rights as defined in the many United Nations resolutions in the past 22 years. In Beirut, the Lebanese capi- jacked airliners were freed "to fulfill a PFLP promise to Presi- dent Nasser" before his death Monday.

When the six, all Americans, were released Thursday a front spokesman said they were freed unconditionally. But the front's newspaper, Al Hadaf, said it ex. pected the United States and Is rael to stand by a deal it insisted was made to gain their freedom. It demanded the release by Is rael of two Algerians, 10 Le- banese, a Swiss member of the front, and an unspecified number of Palestinians. Israel has said it was not a party to any deal to free the hostages.

Britain, West Germany and Switzerland released seven Arab guerrillas after the six hostages reached safety.
