White, 1970s leader of Democrats New York Times News Service i WASHINGTON John C. White, a Texas sharecropper's son who became Democratic national chairman, died Friday in Georgetown University Hospital, where he had been under treatment for a heart ailment He was 70. Mr. White had a successful career in state politics before he was drawn to Washington. Along the way, he won the friendship of powerful older Texas Democrats like Lyndon Johnson and Rep.

Sam Rayburn, the longtime speaker of the house. Within the fractious state party, he gained a reputation as a conciliator. "He always took a position on one side or the other but without indulging in mean-spirited things or personal attacks," Robert Strauss, another Texan who became a national figure, said Friday. "He literally had no enemies." Strauss, who had served earlier as party chairman, endorsed Mr. White for the post in 1977.

Mr. White was chosen by President Jimmy Carter late that year and was elected by the national committee in January 1978.

He died last Sunday in Warren Hospital in Phillipsburg, N.J., said Peter Spencer, editor of Consumers' Research magazine. Mr.

Schlink was the co-founder, with Stuart Chase, of the Consumers' Club, which sought to protect the consumer by publicizing defective and unsafe products. The club started with 300 members in 1927. The two were co-authors that year of "Your Money's Worth," a buyers-beware book that inspired them to start the club. They incorporated the club as Consumers' Research Inc. in 1931, making it the nation's first independent organization to test consumer products and report on them by brand name.
