East ran with the heavy endorsement of Helms and the senator's wealthy political organization. Helms said the only thing that could prevent him from taking the agriculture post would be if Illinois Sen. Charles Percy, the ranking Republican on the Foreign Relations Committee, chooses not to accept that chairmanship and leaves Helms its ranking GOP member. "It would be a real dilemma," he said. Helms said he believed the government was currently "dishing out these food stamps to people who don't deserve them."

Republican Ronald Reagan, the victor, ! and-President Jimmy Carter attracted only 43 percent of the total potential vote, after subtracting votes for independents and minor party candidates, according to one analysis. Nearly complete figures showed 84 million Americans cast votes, out of a voting-age population estimated by the Census Bureau at 160.5 million. While the total vote was a record, the percentage turnout was down from the 54.4 percent who voted in 1976. A total of 81.6 million Americans voted in 1976 when the potential was 150.2 million.

The spiritual adviser to the militants holding the 52 American hostages in Iran said Wednesday the crisis may be prolonged as a result of Republican Ronald Reagan's victory in the U.S. presidential elections, Tehran radio reported. "Because (President) Carter was already in office, we would have reached a solution faster if he were re-elected," the radio quoted deputy Parliament speaker Hojatoleslam Moosavi Khoeniha as saying in an Interview with Greek television. "With Reagan's victory this will need a. long time." Khoeniha said the hostages would be put on trial if America did not act on Iran's conditions for the captives' release, the radio announcer reported, reading what he said was a transcript of the interview. . Khoeniha was the chairman of the committee which drafted the conditions approved Sunday by Parliament.

'AHA S I 1 i y y n WASHINGTON (AP) President elect Ronald Reel's conservative tide has assured Republicans cf control of the Senate in 1S31, while sweeping many of the chamber's prominent Democrats into retirement and stripping the survivors of their long-held perquisites of power. The new Senate will count at least 52 and probably 53 Republicans as the GOP assumes command for the first time in 25 years. Thus the Democrats, who now enjoy a 59-41 edge, will witness Robert C. Byrd Jr. of West Virginia yield his title as majority leader to Howard Baker Jr. of Tennessee. And they will forfeit, at the same time, all the committee chairmanships so crucial to legislative craftwork. Among the deposed Democratic liberals were George McGovcrn of South Dakota, Frank Church cf Idaho, Dirch Eayh of Indiana and John Culver of Iowa, all targets of a heavily financed conservative lobby. Two others, Alan Cranston of California and Thomas Eagleton of Missouri, survived the onslaught. Other prominent Democratic losers were Warren Magnuson of Washington and Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin. And . Anderson also dropped a broad hint that his jaunt toward the White House had not ended Tuesday night. "I will not be the next president of the United States," he said, then paused. "That decision is deferred." Chants of "J-B-A" and " '84" suited that at least several thousand IS SO Americans backers would be happy to stay on the congressman's side, at least until the Brie ran out. , In the Anderson family's 10th-floor suite, Kcke Anderson poked her husband in the ribs as he stared at returns showing Republican Ronald Reagn ahead of Carter by several percentage points. "Smile, Carter's not elected," she said. For many Anderson workers, the independent candidate's campaign was their first political effort. Several said Ihey planned to stay in Washingtdn and find jobs on Capitol Hill. Ed Doran Jr., a Pennsylvania optometrist, said he had become a member of Anderson's finance committee in the final days of the campaign.

There remained some doubt Wednesday about two apparent GOP victories, but Republican Mack Mattingly finally edg:d Sen. Herman Talmadge in Georgia and Sen. Dairy Geld water, R-Ariz., clung to a slim lead over Democrat EIU Schulz. Gold water had trailed early in the count and then rallied with a strong showing via absentee ballots. Still, several thousand votes remained to be counted in Arizona especially since the polls were reopened in Tucson ' ' vw.JwJ tvwuuv SJl --. L shortage a day earlier. Talmadge, 67, who was denounced by the Senate for financial misconduct this year, trailed by almost 21, 000 votes with almost ccmphte returns. He was the ninth Democratic incumbent to be retired by the GOP landslide. In Vermont, liberal Democrat Sen. Patrick Leahy edged financial consultant Stewart Ledbctter, who declined to concede until Wednesday afternoon. A recount was possible. From ps33 1 a Republican," he said. "But in this case, my country comes first." . Doran said "he had beta rewarded for his first contribution to Anderson, $1,003, which he got by selling some c( his optometrist's equipment, when he won a gas stxtion in a federal drawing two days later. Little sympathy was voiced for Carter at the Anderson party, though no one seemed thrilled about having Reagan in the Oval office. Tufts University freshman Wayne Mayer, though, had a look of horror on his ' face as he sat in a corner by himself during Carter's concession speech. "The country's committed suicide," he said. "This is horrible. The general atmosphere around Tufts lately has been, If Reagan's elected, don't expect to graduate." Anderson capped his speech with praise for. his supporters that echoed many of the rallying cries the congressman used during his chaotic and often-troubled campaign. "The renaissance of my whole life is to realize that there are people like you thousands across the country who are willing to do the things you have done for me."
