12 JOURNAL HERALD Friday, Dec 5, 1980 Liberal group in Congress WASHINGTON (AP) Taking a tip from the right wing, a committee dedicated to electing liberals to Congress made public yesterday its hit list for the 1982 elections. The National Committee for an Effective Congress said it had targeted five conservative senators and 66 Democratic and Republican representatives for political extinction in the 1982 elections. Among those targeted were several conservatives who were first elected to Congress a month ago. It was the first time the group had released its target list. The National Conservative Political Action Committee, which is claiming it had a major influ- ence in the recent elections, previously made its 1982 target list of liberals public.

"NCEC feels It Is time for progressive Americans to realize that the conservatives are on the verge of controlling the entire federal government," said Russell Hemen-way, the group's national director. Hemenway said it was possible but difficult for Democrats to regain control of the Senate in 1 982. Senators targeted for 1982 include four Republicans SJ. Hayakawa of California, William Roth of Delaware, Richard Lugar of Indiana and Harrison Schmitt of New Mexico and one independent, Harry Byrd of Virginia.

John H. Glenn, who voted to create the Energy Department in 1977, yesterday said Congress should "very seriously consider dumping the whole thing" unless it grants greater authority to the secretary of the agency. While the energy secretary has broad administrative control over various independent government energy groups like the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Glenn charged that "he doesn't even have the author RWSH ity io aireci wnai iney re aoing.

"AH he does is give them their pencils and paper and provide them their officg space," he said. "They're completely independent of him. They operate on their own." Glenn said this lack of control inhibits the government from pursuing a comprehen hfiCHRISTMAS WW iii Celifric 13" i RCAxiiOO ir LYSKlBX SOLID STATE SOLID STATE SOLID STATE I DABRITE II COLOR )) COLOR PORTABLE COLOR PORTABLE COLOR PORTABLE TELEVISION BUY!

Glenn "I want us to consider strengthening the department so it really can work the way it was envisioned in the first place," he said.

At the time of the congressional debate over whether to create the Energy Department, Glenn had unsuccessfully argued in committees and on the Senate floor that the secretary needed more power to direct the activities of the various energy boards and commissions. "I predicted at the time that we were forming a paper tiger department," Glenn said. "What I said at that time has come true in spades." Glenn's remarks came during a wide-ranging press conference at which he talked about the soon-to-be-concluded 96th Congress and discussed the coming two-year session in the Republican-controlled Senate. "I would anticipate that we would be opposed to any rollbacks in the area of civil rights," Glenn said in response to recent statements by Sen. Strom Thurmond, who will become chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
