MOSCOW - Mikhail Gorbachev called yesterday for sweeping democratic changes in Soviet society, allowing secret ballots, which would give voters a choice of candidates, and promoting non-Communist Party members to high-level jobs.

As concern about Waite's whereabouts mounted, police sources reported the kidnapping of yet another foreigner, a Saudi Arabian. The Saudi was the 13th
