Jobless rate may rise
United Press International
WASHINGTON — Amer
icans get their first post-election
indication today of whether the
nation’s 10.1 percent unemploy
ment rate is still on the rise, a
major factor in large Democratic
House gains in Tuesday’s races.
Data on unemployment in
surance last week showed a re
cord 4.6 million workers receiv
ing benefit checks and a near
record 687,000 initial claims
filed.
New information was to have
been released Thursday by the
Labor Department’s Employ
ment and Standards Adminis
tration, and today the Bureau of
Labor Statistics will release its
October unemployment figure.
Most observers, relying
heavily on recent unemploy
ment insurance reports, expect
it tojump above the 10.1 percent
post-Depression high recorded
in September.
“Without a doubt, unemploy
ment was the principal issue that
gave the Democrats a gain of 26
House seats in Tuesday’s elec
tions,” said John Perkins, head
of the AFL-CIO’s Committee on
Political Education.
“The AFL-CIO views the
1982 election results as a mes
sage to change the course of na
tional economic policy and to re
order national priorities to make
unemployment the No. 1 con
cern.”
The federation said victories
by 24 COPE-endorsed candi
dates for governor exceeded all
recent years, except the Water- Hatch, R-Utah.
gate year of 1974. The federa
tion also claimed victories by 20
of 31 COPE-endorsed Senate
candidates, or 64.5 percent, the
highest winning percentage since
1974. Labor’s winning percen
tage for Senate races was 34.4
percent in 1980 and 40 percent
in 1978.
Federation chief lobbyist Ray
Denison said: “The election re
sults tell the 98th Congress
Americans are concerned about
the plight of the nation’s 11.3
million unemployed.”

Man vowed revenge,
court records say
United Press International
CHICAGO—An Illinois man
wanted for questioning about
the cyanide- Tylenol killings
vowed “Son of Sam will pale” in
comparison to revenge he plan
ned against a grocery chain that
reportedly mistreated his for
mer wife, court documents said.
Kevin Masterson, 35, also
said “many people will suffer,”
the Chicago Tribune reported
in Thursday’s editions.
The grocery chain was identi
fied as Jewel Food Stores. Some
bottles of poisoned capsules
were purchased at Jewel and
one of its subsidiaries — Osco
Drugs.
Seven people died in the Chi
cago area after taking cyanide-
laced Extra-Strength Tylenol
capsules between Sept. 29 and
Oct. 1.
The statements came from
court records that included an
affidavit filed by a state task
force investigator seeking a
search warrant for Masterson’s
room in a Lombard, Ill., board
ing house.
An all-points bulletin was
issued for Masterson earlier in
the week and a search for him
shifted in the past two days from
Kentucky to Florida.
The grudge against Jewel
apparently arose from an inci
dent in which Masterson’s for
mer wife filed suit against Jewel
after being mistreated by secur
ity guards. A settlement was
reached, but he was dissatisfied
and vowed revenge, the news
paper said.
“Many people will suffer be
cause of what was done to my
wife by Jewel,” the affidavit
quoted Masterson as telling a
psychiatrist. “Son of Sam will
pale by comparison to my ac
tion.”
The psychiatrist concluded
Masterson suffered a personal
ity disorder and was prone to
violence. The police bulletin also
described Masterson as having a
history of mental disorders and
violent tendencies.
Illinois Attorney General
Tyrone Fahner was expected to
hold a news briefing Thursday
to update developments in the
case.
Masterson is wanted only for
questioning, authorities say, and
is not being charged with the
killings or any other crime. No
arrest warrant was issued.
A search of Masterson’s room
failed th turn up cyanide or
other poisons
Crossed communications
were blamed Wednesday for re
ports that a suburban Detroit
youth, 15, became violently ill
after eating candy supposedly
laced with cyanide.
Redford Township Sgt. John
Greet said a message from a
laboratory to a hospital that sam
ples could be tested for cyanide
was misunderstood as a report
that cyanide had actually been
discovered.
He said test results were not
expected until Thursday and
should determine whether
police investigate or drop the
matter. The youth has already
gone home after being hospital
ized for treatment.

Daley campaigns,
challenges Byrne
United Press International
CHICAGO — Richard M.
Daley, evoking memories of his
late father, announced Thurs
day he will run for mayor
[against Jane M. Byrne in the
February Democratic primary.
“On this day especially, I
think of my father,” Daley said.
“He was never satisfied with the
progress this city had made. He
was always wanting to make it
better because he loved the city.”
Daley, who promised during
his successful campaign for the
Cook County State’s Attorney
office not to run for mayor in
1, said he changed his mind
because of requests from the
people.
“I have been urged by people
from all walks of life, from every
neighborhood, to give serious
consideration to becoming a
candidate,” Daley told several
hundred supporters packed
into a downtown hotel ballroom.
He said leadership and the
management of government
will be the key issues of the cam
paign, and invited voters to com
pare his record as a state senator
and prosecutor against that of
the mayor during her one four-
year term.
