Vote-counters working for the Democratic leadership predicted the bill will pass comfortably. A count complied by Rangel showed 104 of the 253 Democrats solidly in support of the measure. Rep. Jack Kemp of New York, chairman of the Republican confer ence, predicted the 180 Republicans would be split 2-1 or 3-1 in favor. Combining the two parties’ most conservative estimates would result in a total vote of about 280 for the bill. If all 433 members are present, 217 votes would be required for pas sage. There are two vacancies in the 435-member House. The compromise bill cannot be changed; the House and Senate must accept or reject the entire pack age. White House spokesman Peter Roussel said a letter from President Reagan appealing for passage of the bill was deliverea to all members of the House Wednesday. The letter cited key elements of the bill and noted that when the House first passed its version of the measure he had promised he would not support a final version of the legislation which failed to meet cer tain criteria. “Thanks to the hard work of the Senate and the conference (which drafted the compromise bill),” the letter said, “the legislation now be fore you meets these tests.” House passage would send the measure to the Senate for final con currence, probably next week. The bill would be sent to President Rea gan to be signed into law sometime in October. The bill, most of which would take effect next Jan. 1, would signifi cantly reduce individual and cor porate tax rates and repeal or re duce several deductions and exclusions. President calls GOP ‘party of opportunity’ OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — President Reagan, campaigning for two Mid western Republicans who hope to be elected the nation’s first black gover nor and his party’s first woman gov ernor, said Wednesday that the GOP, not the Democrats, is “the party of progress and opportunity.” Campaigning for Kay Orr, the Republican candidate for governor of Nebraska, and earlier in the day for Michigan gubernatorial candi date William Lucas, Reagan said that in the six years of his administration new opportunities had opened for women and blacks. “We are showing as never before that we are truly the land of oppor tunity,” Reagan said at a Detroit fundraiser for Lucas. “The number of women in elected offices has risen dramatically, now over 18,000 nationwide,” he said. “In just six years, the number of elected black officials has risen from under 5,000 to almost 6,500.” Venturing into the hard-hit farm belt, Reagan acknowledged that farmers are facing economic diffi culty but contended his administra tion has put more money into farm support than previous presidents. “Yes, times are still hard for many Nebraska farmers, but they’ve be gun to get better,” he said. Orr said Nebraska farmers do not blame Reagan for their troubles. “It’s viewed as a Washington farm policy . . . they don’t blame him,” she said. In listing women’s political gains, Reagan said there are more Republi can women in the U.S. House than Democrats. However, there are 12 Demo cratic women and 11 GOP women in the 435-member House. Reagan also noted the only two women in the Senate are both Re publican, and that the GOP has five women nominees for governor across the country. Referring to himself, Reagan said, “It was a certain Republican presi dent who nominated Sandra Day O’Gonnor to be the first woman on the Supreme Court.” Although Reagan has no women among his senior advisers and only one in his Cabinet, Reagan pointed to the women candidates and the nomination of Lucas as signals of openness in his party. “Nothing could more powerfully demonstrate that in 1986, it’s not the Democrats but the GOP that’s be come the party of progress and op portunity,” he said. Reagan addressed two fund-rais ing events for Lucas, Lucas trails considerably in polls behind Demo cratic Gov. James Blanchard. Trail grows cold as search continues for accused killer WRIGHT CITY, Mo. (AP) —- Po lice pressed the search Wednesday for a former mental patient sought in a three-state rampage of murder and abduction, and authorities said they believed he was still in the area although the trail was growing cold. “We’re assuming that he’s still around here,” Missouri Highway Pa trol Capt. John Ford said. “We’re talking about a man who has demon strated that he has no respect for life or property. If he were out of this area, I think something would have happened by now.” Federal, state and local law offi cers have been hunting for Michael W. Jackson, 41, since he allegedly went on a crime spree that started Monday in Indianapolis. Authorities suspect Jackson shot to death two people and abducted four in Indiana, and that he killed one man, wounded a police officer, abducted one person and tried to ab duct two others after he crossed Illi nois and reached eastern Missouri.
