THE LOWELL SUN July 14, 1972 our oun i I Gov. Sargent vetoes Park Plaza legislation; attacks White BOSTON (AP) Gov. Francis W. Sargent today vctowl legislation allowing Boston to build the controversial Park Plaza urgan renewal project without state approval. At ike same time the governor issued a settling criticism Boston Mayor Kevin Whim for trying "to make illegal plans legal." The bill vetoed by Sargent would have allowed the city to implement urban renewal projects without state approval unless the project involved the use of state funds.

The measure would have si anted Boston the right to us eminent domain powers to take land and property tor such a project. Under existing lasv only the state can authorize the use of that power. Several weeks ago the state Department of Community Affairs rejected the city's plans for a major urban renewal project, including several highrise buildings, now office structures, apartments and hotels overlooking Boston Common. THE governor attacked White, who lost to Sargent in the 1970 gubernatorial election, for his role in the Park Plaza dispute and controversies involving the school racial imbalance laws and the MBTA. White charged earlier that the rejection of Park Plaza wa based on "personal and political" reasons.

Sargerit said at a news conference this morning that the mayor and city officials "were willing to sacrifice, the economy of 'Greater Boston in order to evade their legal responsibilities, I call upon the mayor and elected officials of the City of Boston stop the political grandstanding and begin the serious work of meeting the requirements of law. "As governor, I cannot and will not allow any section of litis state to ignore or violate the law. "It is time now for the mayor of Boston to realize that all the accusatioas and name calling will not make illegal plans legal.11 Six antiwar veterans indicted in Florida TALLAHASSEE, Fla.

By LORING SWAIM SunSlaft MIAMI BEACH Reports from the inner sanctum of the McGovern headquarters where the Democratic nominee trashed out his choice for a vice presidential candidate put Boston's Mayor Kevin While as the runner up to being the running mate. Apparently Mayor While's name surfaced when qualifications for the second spot were fed into the thinking apparatus. Among the needed elements were fhat (he candidate be a Catholic, that he be popular with Democrats and especially with new elements of the party, that he have influence with labor and possibly be from a big city.

White seared well on these characteristics. But he had just lost an important election a Republican, Gov. Francis Sargent The full story of yesterday's deliberations will be a while leaking uut ol the inner chambers of the McGovern crew but it is now understood that the 1070 gubernatorial election knocked rumor of McGovern's interest in White, other than a telegram from a national television network, asking whether, if he were nominated as the runnine mate, White would be readv to ap pear on a national TV slof. White never answered that telegram. And yesterday.

Just five hours after being sent on the campaign trail to (he cheers of 3,000 Democratic convention delegates at (he final gavel of their four day meeting, the South Dakota senator met with congressional and other Democratic leaders. At the traditional "unity breakfast" that comes on the morning alter each Democratic Convention ends, the newly crowned presidential nominee and his vice presidential running mate, Son. Thomas K. Eagleton of Missouri, sounded upbeat themes on how, with a united party, they could oust Nixon from office. McGOVERN told reporters he got Iho hours sleep, but both he and Eagleton looked alert and refreshed.

Both stressed at the breakfast gathering at the Fonfainebleau Hotel that only with all elements of the party working together could Nixon be defeated. With cooperation, they said, there was no doubt about the outcome. "We're going to win one of the most sweeping and dramatic victories in the country," said McGovern. He pledged to mesh his widely praised organization of volunteers with the regular Demo eralic party apparatus while striving to reach an accommodation with big labor which opposed McGovern's nomination and has threatened to sit out the cleclion.

George McGovern as the Democratic Presidential candidate, coupled with renewed promises of China's support, have placed the North Vietnamese in a stronger diplomatic position for the resumption today of the peace talks on Vietnam in Paris. The observers said the nomination of McGovern on a resolutely antiwar platform reflected a deep current in American thinking that President Nixon will have to take into account. Premier Chou En lai has clearly indicated By LORING SWAIM Sun Staff MIAMI BEACH Last night, Iherc was none of the usual cascade of brighlly colored balloons descending in torrents from the ceiling to mark Ihe dramatic appearance of Ihe party's hero as the high point of the convenlitm. Perhaps Democrats are on an economy kick tliis year. The outgoing party treasurer, Robert S.

Strauss, promised all hills would be paid this year; possibly cutting out the frills has helped. There were no heavy caat mclal identification badges for delegates, press or pages to pin Ihis year to their clothes, serving more as souvenirs than as identification. It is still not clear why this year's conclave was designed to start its plenary session at 7:30 in the night.

Chou told Henry Kissinger, Nixon's adviser on national security, who visited Peking last month, that peace in Indo Ciiina was the key to peace in Asia and to the normalization of relations between China and the United States. He repealed thai Ihis week to visiting French Foreign Minister Maurice Schumann. LAST SUNDAY, the premier said that orld opinion demand that the U.S.

government end and capture skeptical elements of the country, was delivered at 2:19 a.m. Many regard this as a major tactical blunder. Some say the Convenlion Hall is too hot under the Miami sun to operate in during the day, despite air conditioning. Others say the lateness he bcurc is a deterrent to long speeches and endless challenges, making it easier lo push things through wfrcn attention is dulled. But Ihis convenlion produced delegates far more conscientiously prepared in advance for their new experience, far more ready to pay attention to the rostrum, and far more ready to fight for their beliefs.

There were fev; empty seats, far less snooiing during the action and far more discipline, despite the weariness. NIGHTLIFE FOR the vast majority of delegates was nil. The usual cocktail partying was at a minimum, partly because a lot of delegates had trouble mustering the money get themselves to the convention and had none to spare for frills.

As McGovern moved into his party unifying cifort, with the "unity breakfast," members of the Democratic congressional establishment introduced the new team at Ihe breakfasts and vowed their support to them. House Speaker Carl Albert noted McGovern's previous service in Ihe House 'and said "You arc a colleague Of all of us." Albert the South Dakctan that he had already "confounded" the pundits and politicians by capturing the nomination. Democrats, asserted Albert, should not now be intimidated by the heavily financed and computerized campaign the GOP has readied for the fall. "George," said Albert, "Nixon may have the computers, he may have the bank accounts. You have the people and you're going to win." The financial straits of the Democrats was underscored by the breakfast menu an "informal" fare limited to juice, coffee and bite size pastries.

The affair was sponsored by the Senate and House Campaign Committees, both af which, help money for Democratic candidates running for Congress. At Ihe convention, McGovern contended that America's discontent with Nixon's Vietnam and economic policies would win the White House for the Democrats. In Paris McGovern's nomination seen frump card for North Viefs and Viet Cong its war of "aggression" in Vietnam through "serious negotiations." The result, observers helicve, is that Norlh Vietnam and the South Vietnam Provisional Revolutionary government (Viet Cong) are in a more favorable diplomatic position than they were two months ago, just before the United Slates and Saigon decided unilaterally to suspend the Paris talks. The intensive bombings of the North. does not appear to have diminished the determination of Hanoi, and Peking observers doubt that the Communist delegates will substantially alter their intra sigeance in Paris.

Economy kick Larry O'Brien said they didn't come to play and he was righf Security last night was intense. Ceiling high chain link fences had been erected around most major entrances, to impede a mass rush. Secret Service men were everywhere, especially when Sen. Ted Kcnndey arrived and gave his emotionally charged call (o the party to rally beind Ihe victor. One could not avoid projecting Ihe familiar Kennedy figure and voice into the slot where McGovern stood.

The response to Kennedy's name and appearance was immediate and enthusiastic; one saw Kennedys from earlier years standing in those slioes. Perhaps the most unusual round of applause came when the chairman of the Alabama delegation announced their vote on the vice presidential race. He mentioned the campaign efforts of their favorite son, Gov. George Wallace, and said that if Wallace had won the presidential nomination, he would want to name his own choice. Then he said that Sen, George McGovem should be given the same respect, therefore Alabama gave its entire 37 votes to Sen.
