State Actions Deny Liquor, Bingo
Kansan Staff Writer
Rv BILL GIBSON
One in Kansas will be permitted to sell liquor by the drink, have alcoholic drinks on flights originating or terminating in Kansas or play Bingo to raise money, according to actions of the Kansas Legislature and emergency general in the first four months of 1973.
But everyone in the state may enjoy the continued tax lid, consumer protection laws and no-fault insurance legislation passed by the legislature.
Both liquor by the drink and bingo were rejected Jan 29 by the Kansas Senate. A resolution to put a local option liquor-by-the-drink amendment on the 1974 ballot was approved.
An amendment to remove the ban on letters from the state constitution failed by two votes to obtain the two-thirds majority needed in the Senate for approval.
"The heart of the nation is sound," said the Rev. Richard Taylor Jr., head of the Kansas United Dry Forces. "Because the economic, social and personal losses caused by pushing drugs, alcohol and legalized gambling are far greater than any minor gains that may result, the Kansas Senate wisely rejected both."
Selling liquor by the drink in the skies above Kansas is no more legal than on the ground. Attibie, a taxed entity, hold all flights that landed anywhere in the state.
Compulsory no-fault insurance was signed into law by Gov. Robert Docking April 2, offering Kansans a maximum of $100 of no-fault compensation for damage to their car in an accident. The bill included expenses, $1,000 for funeral expenses, $2,000 rehabilitation services and $150 a week for a year.
Under the plan, the insurance will be compulsory and the individual's insurance company will pay the bills. Any damage above $500 will be set as a civil suit.
Docking began the year by announcing his $1.25 billion budget for fiscal 1974. This was a 25 per cent increase over fiscal 1973 and an increase for increases for individuals. Docking said.
The budget allots $48,743,305 to the University of Kansas, which is about $2.5 million more than in fiscal 1973 and $1.3 million less than the Board of Registers reporting to the budget. KU faculty members will receive a 5.5 per cent salary increase.
One means of meeting this budget without raising taxes on individuals is to take a more aggressive approach. Docking said that continuation of the corporate disallowance bill was essential to meet his budget with its new state tax rate and that he would state aid to schools and junior colleges.
After heated debate, the legislature extended the disallowance bill, which prohibits corporations and financial situations from deducting the federal taxes owed by their state income tax returns. This raises $2 million annually in state revenue.
The Kansas Legislature also passed the Consumer Protection Act and established a consumer information center.
one bills place restrictions on door-to-door sales, allow for regulation of interest on small loans and charge accounts and other fees. A power to prosecute consumer fraud cases.
The most sweeping penal reform in the history of the state was passed by the legislature in 1973. The state penal institutions were reorganized and parole departments were reorganized into a new department of corrections under a Secretary of Corrections.
The new system gives the corrections secretary more authority than the penal director now has. The Department of Corrections will place more emphasis on rehabilitation of prisoners instead of punishment, according to its supporters.
A bill less encouraging to the state's prisoners, passed in the 1973 session in the Senate was one that would impose a mandatory death penalty for all first-degree homicide convictions. It passed the Senate, 24 to 15.
protect consumers from fraudulent business practices.
The legislature also passed the driver's license renewal test bill in 1973 which requires Kansans to take a rule of the road on their motorcycles or renewing their licenses every four years.
