The 4,300 delegates, meeting in Chicago, recommended by voice vote Monday their members reject the contract. Ballots were mailed Sunday to about 550,000 postal workers na tionwide, who will decide whether to ratify the contract. The results are expected in about three weeks. In Newark, N.J., Monday a fed eral judge issued a preliminary in junction barring the New York Metro local of the American Postal Workers Union from conducting a strike vote. New York postal workers have been among the most vocal oppo nents of the proposed contract and New York City union leaders were among those leading the rejection of the contract at the letter carriers’ convention. The delegates greeted national President Joseph Vacca with boos and catcalls when he was introduced at the convention in McCormick Place. “It’s the first time that a president has been booed like that and not re ceived a standing ovation,” said Vincent R. Sombropto, leader of the New York local and a vocal oppo nent of the contract proposal. Delegates said Vacca’s chilly re ception reflected the deep division within the 175,000-member union over the proposed contract. The union president also was jeered when he read provisions of the controversial agreement, which calls for a 19.5 percent wage in crease during a three-year period. The union had sought a 17 percent pay increase over two years. In a statement issued later, Vacca said he remained committed to ratification of the contract because it contains a “decent pay package” and unprecedented work rule im provements.

Anthony. The legislation was approved after by Sen. Jake Garn, R-Utah, to delay passage for six months while an ex tensive survey is conducted on whether Americans really want a new $1 coin. Garn said the government may be “minting a new Edsel.” He said he will offer an amend ment calling for a national survey to determine the coin’s “potential for MSC GRAFT SHOP FINE HANDCRAFTED GIFTS AT REASONABLE RATES.

If approved, the Treasury hopes to have 500 million of the new coins in circulation by mid-1979. Issuance of the new coin had stir red up controversy because the Treasury wanted to place the sym bolic Miss Liberty on the new coin, saying the image would honor all women and not just one individual.
