...York's Democratic chieftains made few headlines last May when they picked Arthur Klein as their candidate for Manhattan surrogate, a job rich in patronage and rife with possibilities of scandal (see THE LAW). In the course of ten years on the State Supreme Court, Democrat Klein, 61, had earned a sound judicial reputation, and as frequently happens in New York, Tammany Boss J.

...explains the upset is a mood of moderate conservatism that dominated the assembly this year; many delegates were openly worried about the implications and value of the kind of commitment to causes for which Blake is famed. Thompson shares Blake's ecumenical view that church division is a scandal, and his concern for civil rights. But, adds one minister who knows both men: "I doubt if Thompson will get himself arrested on any civil rights demonstrations, even though he'll be just as deeply involved in the issues as Blake." Fellow churchmen also consider Thompson a more tactful...
