Baker says
governor seat
too powerful

By JAY noesnrr
Staff erur ’

Walter Baker, Rewblican state
senator from Glasgow, said
yesterday at the Law Building
Courtroom he thought the office of
governor in Kentucky was con-
stitutionally the most powerful
governorship In the nation.

Speaking at the Student Bar
Association's Wednesday For-inn,
Baker said: “We have a con-
stitutional dictatorship In the way
we have structured our state
governmmt and in the power that
the governor possesses: it (the
governor’s office) is a supremely
powerful office.

Baker noted that the governor’s
air fleet, which consists of 13 air-
craft, ls half the size of in-the Ken-
tucky Air Guard air fleet.

He ako said first more than of
M.m0per'yearisspentonsectn'ity
for the governor and lieutenant
governor. The governor has 17
h'oopqs assigned to guard him, the
lieutmantgovernor has seven.

Baker said the odice is being
magnified to the point that even the
best man'canft help but feel he was
d’tiglntsd by the Lord to rule as
governor.

“When i go sromd the sanity
and talk to other legislators at
national meetings," Baker
said. “They are overwhelmed by the
fact that we in Kentucky maintain
our governor the way we do.

“We are operating the biggest
business In Kentucky when we are
operating state government. We are

am involved in a $7.5 billion

budgetary period, yet one man
possesses most of the power over-
that budget —the governor."
Baker said the state legislature
has made some gains in the last
decadeintryingtogetridofsomeof

thepowerthegovernorhasob‘

tained.

One thing the iegislattn-e has done,
he said, is change the constitution
concerning the legislature and what
itcando,thuslimiting someofthe
governor’s power.

“Unbalanced government is not
good government,” he said. “People
who are not under restraints and
controls are governed to make
mistakes they wouldn’t have made If
they were under controls.”

production caused the old booklet
form to increase significantly in
cost.

“Production costs took a major
part of the office’s (scheduling of-
fice) printing dollars,” Spencer
explained.

By having the Kerael publish the
schedule, production costs were cut
75 percent, he said.

Spencer approached the Kernel
Presslast spring, proposing thatthe

Kernel producetheschedulesthis'

year. Nancy Green, student
publications advisor and a member
the Kernel Press board of

directors, said they had this In mind
before Spencer spoke to than.

Green said she had talked last
spring with other college publicatiu
advisers who have had succeu with
this type of arrangement between
student publications and schethlim
offices.

Spencer described this change as
being “mutually beneficial.” He
said It helped the scheduling office
cut costs and gave the Kernel Press,
inc. the opportunity to make some
revenue and gain experience.

To cover the costs of production,
Kernel advertising ’representatives
sold ads in the schedule.

“Since every studenthas to look at
the schedule, advertisers responded

very well," Green said. She is
pleased with advertiser respome

better next semester.

The broadsheet format was

chosen because of the Israel's

success in the ‘past two years with

thinks the full- page form will be

became students will be able to pull

Two parties!?!

Most Kentucky voters don't have to worry
aboutthreatstothetwo-partysystemlnthis
'state. Except for the 6th District, there isn’t
much of a second party.

Kentucky's dehgation, except
for primary loser John Breckinrldge, was
returned to Washington intact Tuesday, as the
six incumbents enjoyed easy victories over weak
opposition. '

By 1900, the six will now have served,
collectively, 53 terms. One hundred and six years
inCongressisalongtimeforanygroupof
representatives, and it’s time the public had
some kind of alternative.

The longevity of the Kentucky delegation
cannot be credited simply to the power of the
incumbency. Against the kind of challengers the'
veterans faced, almost any reasonable can-
didate could win.

In the 3rd District, in Louisville, Democrat
Romano Massali was “challenged” by first-time
office seeker Norbert Leveronne, a Republican
and retired portrait photographer. Other strong
contenders were a conservative independent and
a Socialist Workers Party candidate. Massali
took 65 percent of the vote.

. In the 4th District, incumbent Republican
Gene Snyder won 66 percent of the vote against
George Clarke Martin. Martin, you’ll remember,
waged a valiant campaign to capture the
Guinness record for the longest political speech,
membfl speaking for 31 hours to get his name in

‘snaw IS Ahmad NDWEENT, BUFFERVENILY lN mom nx-CUTHNG, PND Y ISA
WEE-WWWMWILY IN FAhROFTAtrCUmNonANDWSNLIt/E HEARD . ORR!’

The state's other Republican, Tim Lee Carter, '

defeated Jesse Ramey in the 5th District,
collecting about four-fifths of the votes. In the 7th
District, 76 percent of the people wanted
Democrat Carl Perkins for a 16th term.

Other districts are even more straightforward.
In the 1st and 2nd Districts, Carroll Hubbard and
William Natcher were unopposed.

The politics of stability, then, has been in force
in Kentucky for many years. Note that in-

Congressional election results show little evidence
of state parties giving the voters a decent choice.

cumbeiit John smallness was defeated
primary, not an election. Many insist
Breckinrldge had been more mindful
constituents, he could have snuffed out Tom
Easterly’s campaign last spring.
Therearecertainadvantagestosendiuthe
same delegates to Washington; they mbve into
important committee assignments and
power and influence, which ultimately can bring
‘benefits to their home district.

But a complacent oligarchy, where.

representatives are automatically returned
every two years, will soon develop an attitude of
resignation towards the electoral process.
People stop thinking about differences they
thight have with their congressman, and console
themselves with compromises on the issues in
resin for pork barrel projects and more federal
a .

Certainly there are many issues on which
Kentucky’s representatives should be taken to
task. Their record on environmental issues is
generally dismal. The actions of some, like Gene
Snyder’s business interests, should invite strong
opposition. _ .

The lesson of Breckinridge is that alternatives
are available, given the right timing and the
right candidate. Kentuckians should not be
satisfied with a one-party system, and the
Democrats and Republicans should stop con-
ceding districts in perpetuity. Elections
shouldn’tbearitual of re-affirmation, butshould
offer voters a legitimate choice.

I was disappointed with your
article of Thm'sday, Nov. 2, con-
cerning little sister organizations.
The bias shown by the author sur-
prised me since she did interview at
least one spokemari who had a
positive attitude about the program.

Also I think the Kernel should be
careful to present unbiased articles
in the future. But I was most
disappointed by (Assistant) Dean
(of Students Micheal) Palm's
statements. I prefer to think that
Palm “forg " that some frater-
nities treat their little sisters better
than sisters. Surely the Dean of

Fraternities wouldn’t intentionally
“undermine” every little sister
organisation on campus!
Asalittlesisterofthreeyears, I
would like to provide an example of
one worthwhile little sis’
organization on the UK campus.
Instead of “slave work” and
“money,” we have focused on the
personal rewards of working

learn, through experieme of
the blissful states descrbed
in all the sacred literatures of
man. These states can be
experbnoed before death and
on a daily basis.

Again, I'd like to stress tha
thee thhigs can be gained
through experience. The
individual proves to hirnsel
the existence of life after
death. No one can ever prove
these things for is. We can be
guided or shown the way, his
itisuptoustotakethefirst
step. Many want someth'ng
for nothing in this world, bit
eventually each must earn
through his own efforts those
experiences in the Heavenly
Worlds.

ECKANKAR is not for
everybody. There are many
individmls today who are
very comfortable with the
spiriual teaclu'ngs they have
chosen. This is wonderful,
stay with them, get as much
as you can from them, bit
there are millions of in-
dividuals yet searching for
their truths, still asking
questions and not getting any
answers. I’m only here to
present this teaching, to let
those of you mentioned above
know that there is someth'ng
avilable here and now.

ECKANKAR iks an anciert
religion in a modern form. It
is not yoga, philosophy,
metaphysical system or
occul science. It does not use
drugs, hypnosis or other
artifical means of con-
sciousness expansion. It is
simply a natural way to God
Realization via Soul Travel,
the art of shifting one’s at-
tention away from the
material worlds into the
worlds of true beingnes,
beyond energy, matter, time
and space and it is direct. .

The essential form of
ECKANKAR is freedom from
all things, the compleb in-
dependence of the Soul. Soul
is the central reality of the
indiv'dual and will not be
controlled by anything other

than Holy Spirit or that which
we call the ECK currert.
Pure freedom is the eserliai
Law of God. We do not revolt

against rbgma and helefs,
bra allow Soul to become the
impersonal channel d the
How Spirit. whbh mes the
Soul to uplift the world of
matter.

There is never a time what
the world '5 without a hving
Master, one who's only duty
istoleadsoulsbacktoGod,
the true source of all life. The
acceptance of a living Master
can be the beginning it the
end of limitations in then
lower worlds and the key to
total freedom. This is a very
personal and important
decision and should be made
carefully.

There will be a free film,
ECKANKAR, A Way of Life,
folowed by a questionend-
answer period Nov. 13 at 7
pm at the Lexington Public
Lbrary meeting room. The
library '3 located downtown
at 51 W. Second St. For more
