Gorbachev asks for approval of economy reform program
Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev said yesterday that a plan for converting the Soviet Union to a market economy had been submitted by the United Nations and the parliaments of the 15 republics.
Gorbachev, saying the entire country should be involved in this "difficult choice," for the first time was seeking nationwide approval — via the elected parliaments — of a policy that previously was determined by the Communist regime's central government.
In an interview with the evening television news program "Vremya." Gorbachev confirmed that the plan he endorsed and submitted to the national and republic parliaments was based on a radical proposal by economist Stanislay Shatalin.
Supreme Court nominee faces Senate Indiciary Committee
After weeks of researching the opinions of David Souter, the Senate confronts the Supreme Court nominee himself today to fill in a portrait that is little more than an outline.
The confirmation process facing Souter fits the legal definition of discovery: "the disclosure or coming to light of what was previously concealed, or not known, by another about Souter's life but his judicial philosophy."
On the eve of the Senate Judiciary Committee hearings, a host of special interest groups called news conferences to lay out what they know about Souter. Meanwhile, the nominee had lunch at the White House with President Bush and declined to take any questions.

Bush records speech for broadcast in Iraq
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Bush videotaped a message yesterday telling the Iraqi people he has no quarrel" with them and that they should not be allowed to leave their own government, a White House official said.
On the eight-minute tape, which will be broadcast unedited in Iraq. Bush says the U.S. military is in the Persian Gulf only to defend Saudi Arabia from Iraq aggression.
"We want a peaceful resolution. We want peaceful coexistence with the people of Iraq." Bush says on the tape, according to White House spokesperson Marlin Flintwater.
The White House did not release a transcript, but Fitzwater gave an overview of Bush's comments.
The president's address was intended to create internal problems for Iraqi President Saddam Hussein by emphasizing Iraq's isolation in the world community as a result of the invasion of Kuwait. Bush has said previously he would not be unhappy if the people of Iraq removed Saddam from power, and the address stressed that Iraqis are paying a heavy price for his actions.
The president consulted with Arab specialists and met twice with State Department and National Security Council officials to come up with the wording, Fitzwater said.
The Arab specialists were asked to look at the wording "to make sure that the tone of it translates well" and tried to find a similar one.
"You can write a speech that sounds perfectly good to Western ears," but might not convey the same depth of emotion.
Fitzwater said the message was "a very candy but personal description of our goals and our mission."
"The president was forright and didn't stage anything, just gave a direct message," said Sig Rogit. Bush's assistant for media consultation who produced the tape for the president.
The White House media staff worked yesterday on adding Arab subtilties and audio translation to the tape before sending it to the Iraq ambassador in deputy Secretary of State Lawrence Eaglehurst.
The Voice of America said it was doing the translating before the tape was handed over to "The Voice of America."
Fitzwarth said although there had been no direct contact between the two governments regarding the videotape, "we expect that Iraq will honor its invitation to allow this to be addressed to the Iraqi people, and we will ask them to provide us an air time within the next five days."
Fitzwater said he anticipated broad international interest in Bush's message
