Soviet Press Favored McGovern, Prof Says
Soviet pre-election coverage of the 1972 presidential election favored Sen. George McGaven, according to Roy Laird, professor of political science. However, he said, secretly Soviet officials are satisfied with the re-election of President Nixon.
Laird has specialized in Soviet government and politics in his 20 years of study and has published six books and more than 150 articles on the subject. The Soviet Union in 1960 and again in 1970.
"Publicly the Soviet Union tended to favor McGovenn, but like most Americans, knew he had no chance to win the election," Laird said Monday.
The Soviet press leaned toward McGovern as the lesser of two evils,
KPL Seeks Surcharges On Rates
Kansas Power and Light Co. (KPL), and five other electric utility companies will apply for 1973 surcharges in a bearing system on the State Corporation Commission (SCC).
The hearing is scheduled for 10 a.m. in the State Office Building in Topeka.
A spokesman for KPL said Monday he had no idea what action would be taken by the law.
KPL has requested a surcharge of $82,733 for 1793, the spokesman said. That would average about four cents a month for KPL with an average electric bill of $10 a month.
"It's impossible to forecast the actions of the commission," the spokesman said.
Five other companies have applied for surcharges. The companies are Central Kansas Power Co. of Hays; Empire District Electric Co. of Joplin, Mo.; Kansas Power and light in Kansas City, Kan.; Kansas Gas and electric in Wichita; and Western Power Division of Central Telephone and Utilities Corp. in Great Bend.
The proposals are part of an organized nationwide effort by the electric industry to develop a means of producing additional power to meet increasing demands.
however, there was little pre-election coverage of the presidential elections because of domestic problems there, Laird said.
The Soviets supported McGovern's criticism of the current U.S. administration, Laird said. McGovern's work program received strong support, he said. The Soviet Union wanted the United States to disassemble and if McGovern had won the election, that process might have been spearched up, he said.
They have successfully negotiated with Nixon, Laird said. He cited the recent economic negotiations concerning the sale of U.S. grain between the United States and the Soviet Union show that they can work with Nixon.
The Soviets publicly had to side with McGovenn because of his "ifsti-type activities", although they felt they could see the Russians with the conservative right wing, Laird said.
With the re-election of Nixon, Soviets hope to set up trade deals with the United States. The two countries are much harder to negotiate trade deals if the former had been elected, according to Laird
Soviet officials realize they must buy grain from other countries, Laird said, and they also need technical help for their petroleum industry.

Guru's Religious Movement Studied for Law Violations
Wremember the W is Silent
NEW DELHI (AP)-Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's government is investigating a religious movement headed by a guru who claims to be 14 years old and is India's latest spiritual export to the West, authoritative sources said Monday.
The government, he added, wants to determine whether the mission is violating law, particularly regarding restriction laws. He also said he have bank accounts and capital assets.
These informants said that Gandhi had taken a personal interest, in her capacity as head of all intelligence agency in the controversy swirling around Guru Shiva and his devotees as "lord of the universe," "prince of peace" and "the perfect master."
One senior member of the government said Indian diplomatic missions in countries where the gurus' Divine Light Mission operates, including the United States and Britain, have been asked to investigate financial aspects of the movement.

The controversy began when the guru returned to India last Tuesday with 500 American disciples and a suitcase containing $65,000, watches and jewels, including diamond rings and a pearl necklace.
