FTC Report April 72 WASHINGTON (AP) -The Committee for the Re-election of the President is that a hearing on a suit involving the break-in and bugging attempt at Democratic headquarters here could cause incalculable damage to President Nixons campaign.

For this reason, the committee asked U.S. District Court Monday to postpone the hearing on a $1 million damage suit against the committee until after the Nov. 7 election.

McCord the secunty coordinator for the re-election committee.

Pover Curbs Called Likely LOS ANGELES (AP) The Department of Water and Power says it may have to cut off electricity briefly in parts of Los Angeles this summer in order to avoid a total loss of power throughout the city. Floyd L. Goss, chief electrical engineer and assistant manager, said Monday the department will first ask for voluntary curtailment of power use by large commercial and industrial customers. If demand still exceeded supply, he said, the department would interrupt service to a small section of the city for a brief time, but no longer than half an hour.

After the half hour, power could be restored in the area affected and cut off in another section if necessary, he said. The department blamed a court decision delaying construction of a new steam plant, the Feb. 9, 1971, earthquake which damaged a converter station, and a March boiler explosion as reasons for the move. Restoration of the power station and steam plant should correct the situation, officials aald.
