Daley and 58 members of the Cook County political machine were denied seats at the Democratic National Convention Friday. Forces backing Sen. George McGovern took revenge for their loss of 151 California delegates Thursday by throwing out the "Daley 59" in a bitterly divided credentials committee. The vote was 71 to 61. "They hit us Thursday we hit them back Friday," summed up a McGovern delegate from the District of Columbia, Frederick Merrill Jr.

The price of revenge may be high, however. "tut we had no choice we need the Illinois delegates for the nomination." Harold Himmelman, McGovern's assistant campaign manager, explained that after the setback in California Thursday, the McGovern camp had to concentrate on winning the nom Daley's rage at being expelled from the national convention could smolder until fall and damage McGovern's chances against President Nixon. "There is danger that it may cost us Illinois," said Eli Segal, a McGovern strategist. I'm a 14-year-old girl going info the ninth grade at Allen Park High School next fall.

Price Hike Is Ignored From AP end UPI WASHINGTON Congress sent President Nixon legislation Friday night for a 20 percent increase in Social Security benefits the biggest in history despite warnings that Mr. Nixon was considering a veto. The President had termed a 20 percent raise "highly inflationary" and Rep.

John W. Byrnes, senior GOP member of the House Ways and Means Committee, warned that Mr. Nixon was thinking of vetoing it. Most lawmakers, however, discounted this possibility because hte increase is tied to a bill Mr. Nixon urgently wanted to continue the government authority to borrow for four months.

Without such a debt-limit extension the government would be in dire fiscal straits within days. The House voted 302-35 for the Social Security increase after an 82-4 vote in the Senate, with both Sen. Robert P. Griffin, and Philip A. Hart, approving it.

The Senate had voted 66-20 to defeat a Republican proposal to substitute a 10 percent raise and the House also rejected this 253-83. As approved by both Houses, the bill would fatten benefit checks of 28 million Social Security recipients, and would raise payroll taxes of 96 million workers to cover the additional costs. minim on mi mi jiwitmiu iiim''wjihh njjj'i 'rmiiwii. unii hiipii iiiiijiu -tprv fffV, pT i MU rff riv 1.

Friday asked the federal Price Commission for authorization to boost prices on its 1973 models by an estimated 4.9 percent, which would amount to an average of slightly more than $150 across its vehicle line. The company sought an average of $78 per vehicle for improved bumpers and emissions control equipment and an additional 2.5 percent each to cover Increases in materials and labor costs. AMC DID not submit pro-posed model-by-model 1973 prices. It said that it was attempting to provide adequate lead time for commission review and for preparation of final prices on a competitive basis before the September introduction of new models. So far as could be determined, none of the Big Three companies has submitted a formal request to the commission for 1973 model price adjustments, but all have been holding consultations with the federal panel.

There were indications, however, that the other manufacturers can be expected to follow AMC's example in the near future. "We are concerned about the compounding effects on car prices of material and labor cost increases and the cost of federally mandated standards," AMC president William V. Luneburg said. As a result, he said, AMC's request to increase passenger car and Jeep vehicle prices by $73 to meet the standards does not include any profit markup to either the corporation or its dealers. The company's presentation to the commission indicates cost increases which would justify a request for price hikes "well in excess of 2.5 percent," Luneburg said.

"We believe tt Is in our best interests to commit to price adjustments not in excess of general economic guidelines and to seek recovery of the excess costs through further increases in our volume in the market place and by continued emphasis on improved productivity and cost controls," he said. bled and the young survivors of workers would take effect Sept. 1 and be reflected in checks received the first week in October. Social Security taxes higher than this year's level would take effect Jan. 1.

Wage-earners who make $10,800 a year or more will pay Social Security taxes next year that are 27 percent higher than this year's. In 1974, their Social Security taxes will be 41 percent above this year's. Sen. Frank Church, who proposed the increase, said the higher benefits will remove 1.4 million elderly people from the 4.7 million who live in poverty, as it is defined by the government an income of $1,980 or less.
