He said he agreed with Reagan that West Germany's dependence on the Soviet Union for natural gas could create a dangerous foreign policy situation.
"IN RESPONSE to a question about the pipeline, Baker refused to say that Reagan "backed down" from his strong position on the issue but did say the president's position was "a reduction in pressure." Reagan signed an agreement with the Soviet Union or grain shipments.
In response to another question, Baker said that providing funds for nuclear energy rather than investigating possible solar alternatives would be considered by experts to be more cost efficient.
The greenhouse effect is the repeated radiation of sun rays between the earth and the atmosphere, resulting in a gradual rise in the atmospheric temperature.
Baker also said that by the year 2000, environmental conditions such as the "greenhouse effect" could make it impossible in other areas to grow crops. He also suggested a newer reason be supposed nuclear alternatives.
DURING HIS speech, Baker proposed that the media, as a fourth channel of government, could be an adversary in uniting members of Congress with their constituencies.
He said that members of Congress were forced by law to be professional legislators, which gave
"It is important to remember that in the name of reform we have made Congress solely dependent on their legislative salaries," he said. "Rather than serve as a kind of national board of directors, we serve as kind of prestigious bureaucrats."
them no other interest than that of being re-elected.
BAKER SAID this atmosphere of "kept" men and women intensified after Watergate and was the cause of the entire war.
He suggested that the Senate, which currently bans cameras in the chambers, should be open to full public coverage.

unanimous vote of the commission to authorize a poll. He said that without unanimous consent, any kind of opinion, such as a John Birch Society-type opinion, could be expressed.
CLARK SAID HE also would have preferred that the commission be required to unanimously approve all proposed opinion polls. But he said he voted for the ordinance requiring only a 4-1 vote because he felt that it was important for the commission to set a policy about opinion polls.
The commission also deferred action on the proposed licensing of video games because the game distributors told communication that they were to present their case to the commission.

Pearson, who flew with Baker to Washington, D.C., after the lecture, could not be reached for comment.
The proposal, Adkins said, probably would have to be approved by the Senate's Cultural Affairs and Students Rights committees before it could be adopted by the Senate.
"I can handle 120 to 150 people on the computer we have now. With the new computer, I could handle about 30 more," Nordlund said. "It would be great if you could give the computer, it would just take some of the load away."
Adkins, however, said that senators could run into some legal problems in donating the money.
"We're still not sure whether Senate, a state organization, can donate money to the Kansas University Endowment Association, which is a private corporation," he said.

Money to finance the gift would be taken from a Senate reserve account used in the past to finance student-sponsored projects. The account, which at one time totaled more than $100,000, includes unallocated funds and allocated money that was not spent by student

organizations by the end of the Senate's fiscal year.
Adkins pledged to support the Pearson Lectures even if the donation were to be blocked for some reason.
The account previously has paid for emergency telephones on campus and lighting for KU tennis courts, Adkins said.
"If nothing else, step one is to bring some
Presently, the Pearson Lectures are being paid for through a gift initially made by Pearson. Besides financing the lecture series, Pearson donated his Senate papers to KU and has since paid for their maintenance.
weeks later and said the shortage of terminals is another problem the University will always be. The best way for the student to avoid this is to go to a terminal cluster during slack times, he said. Slack times are usually at 8 a.m., around lunch and dinner times and late at night, he said.
I "WOULD recomend that students nap in the afternoon and then go up to one of the terminal sites just before they close and work until two or three in the morning." Nordiand
