Hatch said: It seems clear to me at tkiis point, that it is the manifest intention of the national commission to brcifik up a (Utah) delegation falsely characterized by IWY as radical right w mg by nominating who, in IWYs intemperate delegates language, vmuld probably be classified as radical left wing.' Meanwhile, Utahs elected delegation to the November Houston IWY Conference sent a telegram, signed by chairman Georgia Peterson to President Jimmy Carter protesting the radical platform and "undemocratic and unfair procedures the delegation says has marked the Houston conference from the beginning.

American women We are dismayed that our democratic government would spend $5 million on a conference obviously designed to rubber stamp a radical platform, the telegram said. . Sen. Hatchs remarks, contained in a letter sent Thursday to IWY Executive Director Catherine Clarenbach, questioned the motives of the National Commission in appointing nine delegates. was assured by the IWY that the nomination of nine delegates from Utah was to balance an otherwise disproportionate elected delegation which, in the opinion of IWY, did not include a sufficient minority in terms of race, education and age groups other than middle-ag- e women, he said.
