Dreiling-Dole Tiff Renewed
TOPEKA (AP)-Norbert Dreiling, Kansas Democratic Party chairman, renewed Tuesday a request that former Republican National Chairman Sen. Robert Dole answer questions about the Republican National Committee's employment of James W. McCord, convicted Watergate conspirator.
In Washington, Dole, asked about the Dreiling statements, said Tuesday night, "I'm not going to make any answer to any one by the Kansas Democratic chairman."

"It is most interesting to note that the McCord salary for May and June was presided over by committee on April 6, May before both members had come into effect requiring public disclosure of
"It is of additional significance that no one near the national GOP committee has been able to explain why McCord was paid in advance for those two months when he did not apparently had been to pay him retrospectively for his services as a security consultant."
Dreiling said McCord had been paid a $666-month salary as an employee of the Republican National Committee while Dole was chairman.
Drilling said that Dole, who had been quoted extensively in the press as desiring a full paycheck, "was very happy."
"I would suggest he begin this policy with his own office," Dreiling said.
Mayor Backtracks on Firings; Kansas Town Has Police Again
CONWAY SPRINGS, Kan. (AP) - Robert Enlow, Conway Springs police chief, was regrouping his eight-person police force after a one-week unplanned vacation.
At a June 5 city council meeting, Mayor Leo Ternes announced unexpectedly that he intended to dismiss Enloe; another full-time officer, the department's dispatcher and five volunteer officers. But Ternes recanted that he had been advised by an assistant attorney general that a mayor did not have the power of arbitrary dismissal.
Ternes, elected mayor last month, said he had received complaints about the department. An arm he maintained, the force of his police unit, was involved in his Action June 5 was preceded by a request
for an opinion from the attorney general's office, regarding his power over the airport
Members of the council said they believed Terres' action was based on personality rather than circumstance.
Curt Schneider, assistant attorney general, advised Ternes, the council and members of the police department Monday night that the opinion of Atty, Gen. Vern Miles, not weighed dismissal preagregates, but only the power of appointment, but
Ternes, who could not be reached Tuesday, issued this statement:
"I did misinterpret the attorney general's opinion. So, the former police officers are on duty and are dismissed and are back on duty. I am sorry for you. You are people who were involved in this turmoil."

A lowering of the unemployment rate and an increase in money movement in Lawrence are cited by Salome as two of the effects of industry on Lawrence.
IF KING radio hired a lot of students, Milsa said, they would be running the risk of being let down when the school year began because we see a shutdown of some of their production.
Salome said that today the unemployment rate was close to two and one-half per cent, and that this rate was about as low as it could go. People will always be between jobs so that an unemployment rate of zero is impossible, he said.
ACCORDING TO SALOME, the labor supply is largely composed of KU students and their spouses. While there were no figures available through Gustin-Bacon and King Radio of the spouses employed, the majority of KU students employed was very small.
Lawrence, situated near the geographical center of the United States, is continually expanding its industrial assets. Reasons are access to transportation, city location and access to the transportation center of Kansas City.
In order to encourage the development of industry, the Chamber of Commerce organized the Lawrence Industrial Corporation to develop and purchase purchases and develops industrial sites.
In addition to the Lawrence Industrial Corporation there are Industrial Revenue Bonds. Bill Gaut, head of the Lawrence Industrial Corporation, said that, according to Kansas law, to obtain a bond the company must have fulfilled six requirements.
TRANSPORTATION is readily available by way of the highway systems, especially the Kansas Turnipke, sixteen truck lines, the Union Pacific, Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railroads and AMTRACK. Kansas City International Airport, within 90 miles of the city, is a definite advantage to any industry that might locate in Lawrence.
IF THE manufacturer qualifies, he does not have to pay school taxes and is given lower interest rates. However, state and county taxes must be paid and a service agreement signed with the city for such services as fire protection.
It must provide jobs, be a manufacturing concern, be non-real, financially sound, non-competing with local concerns in the environment and it must not upset the environment.
Gaut said that because of the legal costs necessary to obtain the bond it was not worth the effort to companies to obtain a bond worth less than $500,000.

Gustin-Bacon is the latest to make use of the Industrial Revenue Bonds.
In Lawrence manufacturing concerns use all utilities and services, therefore adding more cost.
Lawrence area. According to the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, about one-third of the population derives its income directly from processing and processing industries located here.
A survey conducted a few years ago by the United States Chamber of Commerce of nine countries shows that for every 100 new home additions, 3 more new other new jobs were added, $39 more people added, 79 more autoes were registered, 10 more households were created, 3 more stores opened, retail sales increased $331,000, and personal income increased $710,000.

Firemen Present Parity Petition
By CONNIE PARISH
Kansan Staff Writer
Pair parly for Lawrence firemen was main brought to the attentio of the City Chambers.
John McArdle, a representative of Fire Fighters' Local Union 1598, presented a petition that had been distributed to the women's stand on gay parity, with the policy
The Commission voted to give the petition to Clerk for determination of its validity.
IN PRESENTING the petition, McArdle said that the city had justified disparity between residents with people as do the police, the fire fighters work as a unit under a supervisor, not as individuals as do the police, and the fire brigade has a great deal of time on standby while on duty.
He argued that fire fighting was also dangerous and important. He said the team had to be prepared and that some apparently didn't want them. McCardie said he was referring to Mayor Nancy Hambleton's previous statement in a letter from the staff, who recommended was okay with her.
Hambleton responded that the Commission had to depend on its professional staff for recommendations as they had done on the parity issue.
MEARLD SAID that perhaps the decision on pay parity should be brought to the voters. City Attorney Milton Allen said it had to be legally determined whether this would be an item for referendum, as such items were usually administrative decisions.
In an earlier action the commissioners approved a slightly revised site plan for the Capital Federal Savings and Loan, which is located in the corner of Harvard Road and Iowa Street.
Hambleton said while it did not reflect on the motion before the commission, she had seen the plans, which call for a blue tile window and a matching curtain. The materials were not compatible in a
restricted commercial area adjacent to a residential area.
COMMISSIONER Barkley Clark said that there seemed to have been limited commercial planning in an area that was supposed to be restricted commercial.
In another agenda item, the Commission voted to act on a petition requesting the installation of sidewalks in the Prairie district. The commission's director of public works, stated that 38 of the 75 resident owners had signed the petition, which he determined was sufficient. The Commission authorized the committee to prepare a resolution ordering the sidewalks.
Action on a proposal to amend the Lawrence City Code to permit junkyards, salvage or auto wrecking yards in general industrial districts of medium intensity was
deferred for a week. The proposed amendment would permit the additions on two conditions.
FIRST, ALL exterior storage and processing areas within 100 feet of major thoroughfares, residential, commercial or restricted industrial districts would have to be removed from the wood fence at least 6 feet high. Second, there would be no burning of junked, salvaged, or discard materials and the area would be attacked to exceed 8 feet above ground level.
The Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission had recommended denial of the amendment. Local environmentalists had also expressed a desire that salvage yards not be permitted in general industrial districts.

Touch of Living Green Aids Apartment Life
By JIM HUFNAGEL Associated Press Writer
Even if your apartment garden measures no more than six inches in diameter and consists of only one plant, you are still in touch with Mother Earth. Here are some ideas to help you add that touch of living green to your apartment.
Many plants do very well under apartment conditions, but because flowering kinds need strong light they will not do as well. They don't need water and food. All but the food are free,
WATER: A PLANT in a small pot may need watering two or three times a week; a large one only once. Plants in glazed pots need watering less often than those in clay, as they are more susceptible to drying before rewatering. If you plan to be gone for a week or more, water the plant.
and that might cost you as much as 39 cents
for a two-year supply.
Light: Set your plants where they get good, bright for as much of the day as possible, remembering to open the draperies every morning.
set it out of the bright light, and drop a plastic bag over it. It should be happy for up to two weeks. For a larger plant, just wrap a plastic pad's drop cloth over and around it.
Food: Plants should be fed once a month during the bright days from April through November. Use a soluble or liquid food, and water it in well. Weiple the leaves with a damp cloth every month or so to improve the plant's appearance and general health.
Pests: A systemic insecticide added to the soil will rid your plant of most bugs.
Affirmative Action Board Named
The appointment of 9 persons to the permanent Affirmative Action Board was announced by Chancellor Raymond Nichols.
The board is designed to provide advice on all policy matters concerning affirmative action. It will review the progress under the Affirmative Action Plan, advise persons and committees on the elimination of discrimination and advise the Chancellor on the appointment of affirmative action personnel.
Others appointed for one year to the board are Dwayne Evans, Lawrence graduate student, and Reynold Iwamoto, professor of chemistry.
Edith Black, administrative assistant to the dean of the School of Social Welfare, will be the chairperson and will serve a one-year term.
Artificial light: You might decide to go all
APPOINTED TO two-year terms are
Beverley Anderson, assistant professor of business; Phyllis Jones, assistant to the dean of women; and Harold Stagg, microbiology.
Those serving three-year terms will be H.
Leslie Adams, assistant professor of music
education; Francine Garcia, registrar's
office; and LZ Horne, Topeka junior.
Nichols said that the ad hoc Affirmative Action Board, which served for more than a year and drew up the affirmative Action ordinance, was directed to the University of Kansas, was now discharged.
He paid high tribute to the members of that board and its chairperson, Juliet Shinnock.
NOW TO THE choice of plants. If you're forgetful, adopt a plant from the sasaiveria tribe, which seems to thrive on moist soil and requires water it. Flowerlike bracts of bromeliads have a colorful topknot which lasts for months. They are easy to grow if you keep the little "vases" formed by the bases of the leaves, water and irrigate the soil every two weeks.
"FEW PERSONS have worked longer or harder on so difficult a problem," Nichols said. "The group had to build the structure of our work and the guidelines which real guidelines are scarce. The
University is deeply indebted to Professor Shaffer and her colleagues for their leadership in the construction of a new official policy."
out and set up a growing area under lights.
Corrected fluorescent tubes provide an
optimal environment.
Black is the only member of the ad hoc group who was named to the new board.
Or try dracena, which provide year-round color from leaves that are striped, mottled or splotted with yellow, charteurse or cherry red leaves. The plants get by with only minimal attention.
Some other larger plants that grow quite well with a little attention are fathesbera, deffenbachia, philodendron, figs, palms, begonia, Norfolk Island pine, podcarpus, rubber plant and schefflera. Or if your space is more limited, try such small plants as aphelandra, cactus, fern, ivy, peperomia, succulents and syngonium.
