"I am staying in it all the way," Jackson said. "No adjustment of any kind." Another major candidate had yet to be heard from McGovern strategy, page 8 George Wallace, wheelchair -bound since he was shot nearly two months ago. There was no immediate indication what Wallace, or a handful of minor candidates would do. But to Humphrey and Muskie there was no doubt that their hupes for the presidency were gone, that McGovern will win the nomination overwhelmingly and any other action by them would be a futile gesture. Together, the Humphrey and Muskie delegates constitute the second largest group in the convention.

Within two hours of Humphrey's announcement McGovern supporters were claiming that 60 or 70 Humphrey delegates had swung to McGovern. This, they said, gave him at least a 200 vote cushion he needs 1,509 to win. Muskie, whose announcement followed Humphrey's by three hours, told reporters and supporters that "let us now recognize in George McGovern the opportunity for our party to give a lasting home to the young men and women who are our country's future."

Four more dead in Ulster strife cerned about statements by the fallers' militant leaders that they won't go back to work with the mass of the IWA mill and logging camp workers. The majority of company officers however feel that the new day rate for fallers ($80.52 for a 6V4 hour day) will benefit most of them and the majority will gradually return to their jobs. The contract also gives the fallers a longer work year than they had under the former system of piece work.
