THE EVENING STAR Washington, D. Tuesday, Octabar 9,1962 A-6 INTERPRETATION Michigan Rivals Clash Before Affluent Crowd By DAVID S. BRODER Star Staff Writer DETROIT, Oct. fl. The rivals in the dramatic struggle for Michigan's governorship have finally clashed headon, and the result was not at all as expected.

Democratic Gos. John Swainson. who has been patiently, ploddingly lecturing the voters on the subtleties of State finance, suddenly turned tiger. George Romney, the hyperaggressive Republican challenger, for the first time found himself slightly on the defensite. Their encounter last night at the Detroit Economic Club set the stage for what both camps believe will be the crucial halfhour of the campaign first televised debate.

Neither man could claim a clear-cut victory in the preliminary bout. Mr. Romney was the obvious favorite of the 2,300 well heeled Detroiters who filled Cobo Hall for last invitational dinner. Both Talk at Length But Gov. backers claimed he had scored more points with the unseen commoners who presumably listened in on the two Detroit radio stations that carried the program.

Actually, both men might! have been also-rans to a thirdparty candidate with a talent for speaking briefly. So long-j winded were the rivals that they managed to answer only, one question apiece in the minutes set aside for an audience-participation inquisition. Mr. Romney's speeches were Interrupted by frequent cheers. One of the harangues drew loud boos and catcalls.

This pleased his agents, who figured the Democrats listening in their living rooms would be enraged at the rich; rude treatment of their champion. The Republican contender showed up for the debate with an old speech. It was a plea for a revolution to recapture control of the entire political process" from the special interests Mr. Romney says run Michigan now. Kill Vital Measures Like everyone else in the State, Gov.

Swainson has been hearing the same line from Mr. Romney for months. During those months, the conservative Republicans in the Legislature, without rebuke from their gubernatorial candidate, gutted a good many the fiscal measure both contenders agree is vital. Gov. handlers have been begging him for wegks to attack Mr.

Romney on point. Last night, perhaps emboldened by President week-end visit or alarmed by the polls, the Governor tried. RAIL Continued From Pare A-l union 90 notice before: abolishing a job. This decision, on the length of notice required, was the only one to which both Mr. Leighty and Mr.

Heineman agreed. Extra Employe Provisions Extra employes should be guaranteed 40 hours a week, but this can be reduced by eight hours in any week for any i day on which an employe fails to respond to a call for work. The railroad can determine the number of extra employes. The several hundred telegraphers already laid off by the railroad should not be entitled both to the layoff benefits recently negotiated and the claims for layoff benefits they have filed as grievances, which are still pending. Mr.

Garrett ruled that although a carrier can go ahead with a proposed job elimination despite union objections, the union would not be precluded from opposing proposals before regulatory agencies regarding elimination of jobs or service. The and the union earlier had negotiated layoff benefits equal to 60 per cent of recent average earnings up to a period of five years, based on seniority. Instead of this furlough allowance displaced workers could take a lump sum severance on a maximum full year pay. Employes transferred because of job elimination would be guaranteed equal pay for five years. These provisions are retroactive to January 22.

1958. The union had battled for Bazelon Installed As Chief Judge David L. Bazelon, 52, takes over as chief judge of the nine-member United States Court of Appeals today. He replaces Judge Wilbur K. Miller, who is 70 years old today and under law must relinquish the position of chief judge.

Judge Miller will remain an active member of the court. The chief judge is main'y responsible for the administrative business of the court, including the filing of reports and the maintenance of statistics and records. The change in command was automatic under a 1958 law. Judge Bazelon was appointed to the appeals court by President Truman in 1949.

Swainson said. fact, he seemed so busy urging other people to speak up that he just did not have time to practice what he Blasts Business Lobby That did not sit well with the Economic Club patrons. But there was worse to come. The Governor accused big business of loosing the "most vicious lobbying Lansing has witnessed in recent to defeat his tax reform bill in the State Senate by one vote. were all the business leaders in this room when the chips were down? he demanded.

Gov. Swainson managed to end on an optimistic note, citing figures released earlier in the day showing unemployment rate dropped last month to 4.9 per centbelow the national average and th elowest in the State in seven years. It was the claim of economic recovery that Mr. Romney attacked in his rebuttal. He said there was no credit due the State government for the fact that employment improved, it just so happened 1962 has been the second best auto year in history.

And what perked up the auto industry? Why, said Mr. Rom-; ney, compact car which he helped launch! at American Motors.

It may also have! evoked some echoes of ap-' proval among the listeners in radioland. At any rate, the Republican managers said later they were pretty sure their man had showed himself person of and revealed his rival as "a very petty, partisan A deep thinker in the Swain-1 son camp, however, claimed the Governor had accomplished his purpose by demonstrating only real discontent in I Michigan is within George Romney." The picture should be clearer after television is, if away can be found to squeeze both candidates into a half-hour of air 'time. the right to take to arbitration, or third-party decision, any disagreement between the rail-! road and the union over which; jobs should be abolished.

Union Disappointed Mr. Leighty issued this statement on the award: are disappointed by this award. We feel it should have been more favorable to our members. "This is another illustration of the unfortunate results when Government efficlals intervene in railroad labor disputes outside the normal channels of the Railway Labor Act. "Disputes in this industry should be decided, in the final analysis, by free collective bargaining, as the act provides.

The incident occured at the university cafeteria last night, after Mr. Meredith arrived for dinner. No one was hurt but some broken glass sprinkled on the 29-year-old table. In front, some 270 students jeered and shouted. Earlier, Mr.

Meredith attended classes without having to walk through crowds of booing students, a sharp contrast with last week. Two marshals trailed some 30 to 40 feet behind. Mr. Meredith's day went quietly until dinner. At lunch, only one lone cry of "Hi, broke the silence outside the cafeteria.

Air Let Out of Tires The students then turned I their attention to an auto which several Federal officials had been using. One official yelled that a car, out of whose tires students let the air, was Federal property.

Boos and catcalls rang out. The crowd then dwindled away.

He indicated he was pleased with the outcome.

Mr. Katzenbach said he did I not ask the students to do anything but sought to explain and answer questions about the Federal role in breaking down segregation at the 114-year-old university.
