Anti-nuke group plans rally
WICHTIA—An anti-nuclear group called Kansans for Sensible Energy has planned a Karen Silkwood Day Rally on the steps of the Capitol in Topeka tomorrow to focus attention on the Wolf Creek Nuclear Plant being built near Burton丘.
Ken Grotewel, a spokesman for the group, says leaders are expecting more people this time than the 800 that came to a similar rally this post summer at John Redmond Reservoir near Burlington. Grotewel said the purpose of the rally was to publicize the problems encountered by the late Karen Silkwood, a worker at a platinum plant who was trying to expose alleged unlawful work practices and publicize the similar problems of people who live near the Wolf Creek plant.
Silkwood died Nov. 13, 1974, in an auto crash enroute to giving a New York Times reporter documentation on alleged health and safety violations at a Brooklyn high school.

Stassen, 7), a three-term Minnesota governor in the 1930s and 1940s, has been a presidential hoefool for the past 30 years.

The Polish-born pontif, elected last month as leader of the world's 700 million Roman Catholics, told 1,300 priests and frari representing the clergy of Rome that he would follow the path of the late Pope Paul VI, who resisted enormous restrictions from bishops, priests and laymen to lift or at least loosen the marriage ban.

KANSAS CITY. Mo. (AP)—President Carter, explaining publicly for the first time why he signed the $18.7 billion tax cut bill, said yesterday he wanted to make sure Americans would not be saddened with huge tax increases at the beginning of next year.
On a different matter, Carter said any peace agreement between Egypt and Israel should be linked to overall negotiations for a Middle East peace, particularly the status of Palestinians on the West Bank of the Jordan River.
"We did the best we could in the last few days, the last few hours" the president said of the 95th Congress, at a nationally broadcast news source here. Carter signed the bill Monday night.

Energy plan becomes law with Carter's signature
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Carter, expressing "great personal satisfaction," signed a weakened version of his energy to keep him in an 18-month political struggle with Congress.
After placing his signature on several bills that compose the energy package, the president flew to Kansas City, Mo., to address convention and to hold a news conference.
the plan is much weaker than the proposal Carter submitted to Congress 18 months ago in what he called the 'moral crisis' of the war, and compassed his main three principles: efficient use of energy; incentives to spur production of available energy supplies; and a shift to more abundant supplies of energy, such as coal and solar energy.
He said the energy plan would enable the United States to save 2½ million barrels of oil.
The bill provides tax credits to consumers for various energy conservation steps, and also is expected to increase costs for natural gas users.
Natural gas prices will be allowed to rise by about 10 percent annually until 1985, when price lids will be removed from most natural gas.

"In balance, it was acceptable, it was necessary," Carter said of the measure, which differed substantially from the one proposed by the administration.
The president said the measure would actually save $13 billion in increased taxes that would have been imposed when heavily enacted tax cut legislation expired.
Carter said he wanted to make sure that "people will not be saddled with $20 billion to $30 billion in increased taxes at the beginning of next year."
Carter also said he had no intention of seeking a change in legislation that will raise Social Security tax increases is "one of the options I'll consider . . ."
