Daley signals could compromise on seating delegates

Chicago mayor Richard J. Daley left open a compromise to the seating of 9 delegates to the Democratic National Convention after a San Francisco hearing officer found Daley and 58 uncommitted Illinois delegates in violation of McGovern reform rules. Daley said he would use any offices, including McGovern campaign director Frank Mankiewicz, to resolve the issue and reiterated hope that Edward Kennedy might become a candidate, though Kennedy suggested he is not currently seeking the nomination.
