SANDLER WASHINGTON: (UPI) - President Reagan chose some- what hostile surroundings to ask Americans to have patience as his economic policies begin to work and to direct a pointed threat at congressional oppo- nents of his budget priorities. As several thousand angry, jeering demonstrators rallied outside in a steady rain Wednesday, Reagan stood before a meeting in Pittsburgh on the problems of displaced workers, insisting his program has worked and promising better times ahead. Reagan - saw few of the protesters, many assembled by the steelworkers union, and made only passing reference to them in a speech intended to underscore his concern for Americans thrown out of work by an economy in transition. Reagan said the demonstra- tors were \venting their confu- sion and anger\ out of frustration. \Andit's no wonder they're confused,\ he said. ''The economy is getting better, but they don't see théir prospects improving.\ While there were no sharp words for his critics across the street, Reagan used the speech to intensify the pressure on critics in Congress who want to reorderhis budget priorities. In one of ~ harshest denunciations yet of the Demo- cratic spending pifén passed by the House, Reagan warned Congress againsf sergappingthe 10 béfcentaélx cut scheduled for July. 1 or Income tax indexing set to begin in 1985. \To those who would consider changing those tax laws,\ he said, \I'm sleeping with a pen under my Former Gubernatorial Candidate Remembers 1966, 1970 Campaigns By JIM HUDNUT J-R Staff Writer BARRE - Dr. Paul Adams of Barre has no plans to re- enter politics, but be still has some definite ideas on how the state should be run 13 years after his second campaign for 'the state's highest office. Dr. Adams, a retired professor of political studies and administrator at Roberts Wesleyan College in Rochester, had his hat tossed in the gubernatorial ring in 1966 and again in 1970. Running both times with the en- dorsement of the state's Conservative Party, Dr. Adams finished third in both races losing out to Republican incumbent, the late Nelson A. Rockefeller. However, in both cam- paigns, Dr. Adams had suf- ficient support as the \third party\ candidate to garner more than 500,000 votes. However, he was a reluctant candidate who resisted the Conservative nomination. \I was very hesitant .to run because I had absolutely no visibility in the state,\ Dr. Adams said. \I was a total unknown and didn't want to take away from my duties as a vice president and academic great and that it would be a new experience for the With the blessing of the college and a well-organized secretary who ran the office while he was campaigning, Dr. Adams set off on the 196 trail against Rockefelier, Democrat Frark Commer and Liberal Franklin D. Roecosevelt Jr. Running with Errited finarices ($40,000 compared to Rockefellers $ millon), Dr. said be sl saw a lot of the state meeting thonsands of people. | L I efuged te campaign because ] got to meet so many peogle, tri sher a while the camrmpaigring bags to weer yootsa framle,\ he ssid. \B is also a frightening experience when you realize how im- portant you are to so many people. You pray that you don't embarrasg them or yourself.\ While campaigning with his full efforts, Dr. Adams never fully believed he could pull the upset and win the governor's mansion. \Unlike Roosevelt, I didn't delude myself into thinking I could win,\ Dr. Adams said. \What we really wanted to accomplish was to take the Row \C\ position on the ballot away from the Liberals and to get the Con- servative position heard.\ Dr. Adams apparently succeed got\ % © in both counts, capturing Row \C\\ by defeating Roosevelt for third place and getting 510,023 votes. ® Because of the success of the 1966 campaign, the Con- servatives again tapped Dr. Adams to run in 1970 against Rockefeller and Democrat Arthur Goldberg. Running on the same line with U.S. Senate candidate James Buckley, Adams again ran third with more than 500,000 votes. The campaign, however, was again a success as the party fur- thered its positions and Buckley won the Senate seat 'That was a tough cam F paign,\ Dr. Adams said. \We expected to get around 800,000 votes, but like it did in 1966, the mayoral election in New York City had an effect on our candidacy as many con- servatives in New York went to Goldberg who was supported by John Lindsay. It probably cost us 300,000 votes.\ Dr. Adams, now 68, was born in Natrona Heights, Pa., a suburb about 20 miles north of Pittsburgh.

Here, Dr. Adams displays a Nov. 6, 19866 from the Sunday New York Dafly News depicting himself, Melson RockefeDer, Frank O'Connor and D. Roosevelt Ir., from loyed C pillow, ready for veto.\ Repeal of indexing and the final installment of Reagan's 1981 tax cut are key elements of the House budget proposal, which also would trim his proposed 10 percent increase in defense spending to 4 percent and increase spending on domesticsocialprograms. \I've never seen -a budget proposal with a more flagrant disregard for its consequer ces,\ Reagan said. He contend ed it would lead to higher interest rates and more govern- ment spending that would throw even more Americans out of work. The message of hope Reagan carried to Pittburgh had several familiar rings. First, in emphasizing the Fears Mental Hospital Will Be A Prison ROCHESTER, N.Y. (UPI) - The Craig Developmental Center will eventually disap- pear as a mental facility if the state goes through with its plans to add 500 prison beds on Craig grounds, members of the Civil Service Employees As sociation said. At a news conference Wednesday to release a report on the impact the prison plan would have on the Center, CSEA region president Robert Lattimer also said the state did not consider the socio-economic costs the rearrangement of Craig patients would incur. Under a plan proposed by Gov. Mario Cuomo and ap- proved as part of the 'state budget, 120 patients at Craig would remain in residence at the Sonyea facility, while the' rest of its 300-plus clients would be relocated throughout the state. Five hundred prison beds would be added to the 250 already held on the grounds by the state Dept. of Correctional Services, Cuomo spokeswoman Betsy Buechner said. But \we feel that what's going to happen is that Craig will disappear completely as a mental facility, and be turned into a prison,\ Lattimer said. Lattimer said it would be easy for the state to choose a facility such as Craig, which is \tucked off in a corner in a rural setting,\ and \thoroughly decimate\ it in trying to alleviate the state's prison problems. However, Ms. Buechner said \there is no intention to close Craig under his (Cuomo's) administration.\ L p ) o_ gfisweflflier . ._ Tonight cloudy. with a 50 per cent . chance of showers. Low 3540.
