Labor Must Abandon New Deal Politics Debate at AFL CIO Summit
Sen Edward Kennedy urged unions to rethink New Deal zeal at the AFL CIO council in New York as Walter Mondale and Ronald Reagan sparred in speeches. Polls show 54 percent of rank and file still back budget cuts, while 44 percent of union families voted for Reagan last year. The piece argues labor must adapt to global competition, move production offshore, and seek cooperation with management to avoid a protected economy.

Clergy in skirts win wider acceptance in major churches
A Ford Foundation study finds broad support for female ministers among United Methodist, United Presbyterian, and Episcopal denominations. Women now constitute 22 percent of clergy as seminaries show rising enrollments from 3,358 to 10,830 between 1972 and 1980, though budget management remains tougher for women. The report notes laity rate women clergy higher in preaching and worship leadership, countered by lingering resistance to women as teachers of scripture.

Predictable reaction to arms speech by Reagan
William Safire analyzes Reagan’s zero option speech and the likely Western and Soviet responses. He notes how Moscow would contest numbers, push for a frozen balance, and use propaganda, while Reagan shifts SALT toward START emphasizing verifiable reductions and openness. He warns against rushed summits and urges serious verification measures, including on-site inspections if both sides agree.
