Row Looms at Demo 'Park f3 r-4 C.u4 t''-'J 7 if I' in 4J By JOHN BECKLER WASHINGTON fAP) Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley, boss of the bigse.st Democratic organization the country, has been shorn of his convention seat in a move that left the party teetering on the edge of discord. The Credential Committee.Mirmly controlled by sup of Sen.

George McGdVern, voted 71 to 61 Friday night to deny seats to Daley and 58 other uncommitted Illinois delegates. The committee voted instead to seat 1 Hval slate of 41 dele-, gates pledged to McGovern and another 18 leaning toward him. The vote was the second explosive challenge decided by the committee, triggering extreme emotional responses and setting the stage for discordant convention floor fight. But, after the Daley vote, a leader of the insurgents called for a healing compromise, I McGovern also picked up eight convention votes anoth-e r- successful challenge involving downstate, Illinois delegates and so gained back at least 49 the delegates he lost Thursday when the Credentials Committee outlawed California's winner-take-all primary, stripping him of more than half its 271 delegate. All of the committee's actions are subject to final approval by the national convention, which opens in Miami Beach July 10, and both the California and linois challenges are expected to be refought there.

The Daley delegation is also planning a court fight to overturn the committee ruling. In Chicago, Daley did not close his immediate plans, but the Rev. Jesse Jackson, a leader of the challenge, said he hoped a compromise could be worked out before the convention. "Rather than having a fight in Miami, there should be a solution In Chicago," Jackson said. He did nof disclose any details of the compromise that might be worked out.

"It is clear we have the power to cut him off, and he has the power to cut us off," said Jackson. question is how can we survive together." Daley called the vote and a great disservice to the Democratic partyl" He said it had the effect of "disenfranchising over 900,000 voters who elected the Illinois delegates." Although there had been talk in the committee of a compromise' on the Illinois chal-1 the mood changed anrupt ly to folfow ing the California vote. A compromise solution requir-" ing Chicago Democrats to select a new delegate slate was proposed to toe committee by Mike Almond, a 23-year-old North Carolina delegate. But- it collapsed without a vote; The challenge to the Daley delegation was based on the report of a hearing examiner appointed by the Credentials Committee to investigate the dispute. The examiner, Cecil F.

Poole, concluded that the Chicago Democratic organization had violated nearly every party guideline for delegate selection. Those guidelines, drafted by a reform commission launched by McGovern after the 19HS convention, require states to give the proor representation to women, youth, blacks and other minority interests, and to select delegates in open well-publicied meetings. I'oole found "deliberate, covert and calculated" violations in 'the Chicago delegation. Of the 59 Daley delegates, 12 were black, eight young and six women. Attorney Wayne W.

Whalen, who represented the Chicago challengers, said 38 were committeemen in the Da- ley organization and the Test -were either relatives of organi-' lation members or other party olficials. jerome Torshen, a lawyer for the Daley delegation, said it had. been elected under Illinois laws By 900,000 Democratic voters whereas the rival slate was put: together in back rooms by "a small self-anointed elite group." One delegate, James P. Har-relson of South Carolina, said the committee, in its anxiety to get Daley, was endangering the ejection chance in November. But another, Matthew Troy, Queens County" party leader in New York City, declared, "I spent seven months breaking mv back to get my delegates into line with the McGovern guidelines.

And I'll be damned if I'm going to let Richard Daley stay outside those guidelines and do what he likes. All he did was put in old-line party hacks who would do "what Dick Daley told them to dov" In other developments: The C'redfntials'-t'MiiBQitite rejected the Hawaii Women's Political Caucus challenge to the Hawaii delegation, accepting a woman member's argument that Hawaii women "put little effort into running" for delegate seats. In Honolulu, the chairman of the bipartisan Women's Political Caucus, Republican Maureen Leopold, said her group will press its challenge before the full convention. Mrs. Leopold said at least 10 per cent of the Credentials Committee members have agreed to submit a minority report on the seating of Hawaii's 20-member delegation.
