MOSCOW, May 7--Nikita Khrushchev lashed out at Soviet bureaucracy today in asking the Supreme Soviet to approve his plan to "transfer the center of gravity" of the Soviet economy. "There are entirely too many supervisors employed by every factory," the Communist party chief declared.

"Our job is to encourage the quality of production to the point where a worker does not have to have a supervisor standing behind him checking his work" He estimated the bureaucrats at 850,000 and promised a reduction.

The Supreme Soviet is certain to approve Krushchev's economic plan, which calls for 20 large industrial ministries in Moscow to be abolished, with their economic enterprises transferred to 92 new regional economic councils scattered throughout the Soviet Union.
