Carter reaffirms pledges . . .
Carter said the three percentage points in the popular vote and the majority of the candidates that had made him president-elect were not adequate to the tasks he had set for himself.

"We had a clear majority of the total electorate." he said.
CARTER GOT 51 PER cent of the popular vote, and Ford got 48 per cent. Carter had a much larger percentage than majority—with Oregon's six electoral votes still up in the air because of the closeness of the race in that state. However, a late count showed that he came to Ford, giving him 241 electoral votes.
Carter said that because of the election result, and a Democratic Congress, the new administration would keep its campaign promises.
But, he said, "I don't underestimate the difficulty."
Carter said he hadn't set an order of priorities for action on his pledges. But he will he do so over the next few weeks, because he knows the decisions publicly as they are made.
CARTER SAID after the news conference that he had reconsidered his plan to spend two or three days a week in Washington during the transition period, because a
president-elect should keep some distance between himself and the capital while an old one is a good place.
BUT CARTER SAID Mondale would be in Washington representing the coming administration.
"He will be me." he said.
Carter said he didn't think the election demonstrated either a strong reaction against Ford or a substantial difference in the voters' trust for him, or for Ford.
But he said most Americans thought it was time for a change and for his promised action to deal with unemployment and inflation.
Carter said he would seek to improve relations with U.S. allies and to open up the country for American interests to the American people. He said he could assess both allies and potential adversaries, including the Soviet Union and China, that the United States would seek peace and stable relationships
CARTER SAID THAT within the next two weeks he would convene a two-day meeting of foreign policy experts, including those from the European Union, Monday and congressional leaders.
Carter amended one campaign statement he made in the last debate with Ford that he
LOS ANGELES (AP)—The three commercial networks and the National Association of Broadcasters violated the First Amendment in adopting a "family viewing" policy for programs aired during yesterday, a federal judge ruled yesterday.
NBC and the broadcasters association declined immediate comment.
CBS and ABC said they would appeal U.S. District Court Judge Weregson Ferguson's ruling, a major victory for Hollywood artists who began fighting the policy in court a month after it went into effect in September 1975.
Ferguson also held that the Federal Communications Commission "violated the First Amendment" by issuing threats of government action should industry not adopt the family viewing policy or the equivalent thereof."

IN WASHINGTON, FCC Chairman Richard Wiley said his agency was consulting with the Justice Department about a lawsuit appeal would be filed by the government.
He said U.S. forces would not likely be used, but said a final judgment would be made if such an invasion occurred, and the type of Soviet action extremely unlikely.
IF THE SOVIET took such action, he said, it would be a serious breach of the peace and a threat to the entire world. Also, he said, it would make it almost impossible for the United States to continue policies of detente toward Moscow.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Wholesale prices jumped sharply in October for the second straight month because of the biggest rise in U.S. payrolls by the Labor Department reported yesterday.
Falling prices for hogs and grains led the decline at the farm level. These offset higher prices for cattle, eggs, coffee and produce.

Audience Participation Invited KU-Y Is Partially Funded by Student Senate
President-elect Jimmy Carter has agreed with President Gerald Ford that inflation would be a serious concern next year and he will be in the range of 6 per cent for the year.
DURING THE PRESIDENTIAL campaign, Carter said that the government should play a more active role in getting private industry to restrain price increases.
Although the drop in farm prices is good news for grocery shoppers, the industrial price trend is a more disturbing sign for the economy.

Farm prices fell 1.2 per cent in October following a 1.9 per cent rise in September and declines in July and August. During the past three months, farm prices have fallen to a 6.8 per cent annual rate while industrial prices climbed at an 11 per cent annual rate.
Economists follow movements in industrial prices—which make up more than 70 per cent of the wholesale price index—more carefully than farm prices, because industrial price changes are likely to have a prolongage impact on the overall price level. They can even after adjustment for seasonal influences, fluctuate from month to month.
INDUSTRIAL PRICES have been rising steadily for the past five months—increasing by 5 per cent in June, 7 per cent in July and August, 9 per cent in September and 1 per cent last month. The October rise was 2.4 per cent last month, the last October, when prices rose 1.2 per cent.
