Governor Edward Edwards of New Jersey is due to arrive soon. Reed’s contest arose after his name was rejected by a district convention, raising a question of authority between state and district meetings. The outcome could affect Clark Gower’s position on the national committee. The party still seeks to define the status of women with National Chairman Cummings and others guiding the effort.
