American Committee To Keep Biafra Alive
"If we can organize support then I think we can convince the committee at least to submit it to the House for consideration, otherwise it can never become anything but wishful thinking."
While representatives of America's major parties battle in Congress, KU Republicans and Democrats have found at least one issue for cooperation.
Vote for 18-year-olds urged
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (UPI)—The Jefferson County Police Department has applied for federal funds for miniature teleprinters to be installed in police cruisers.
Collegiate Young Democrats (CYD) and Collegiate Republicans are working together to lower the voting age to 18 in Kansas.
The joint action results from an October speech presented to the CYDs by Brian Moline, D-Wichita. Moline has introduced a bill for a 19-year-old vote which is now being considered by the State Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives.
"We would like students to write letters giving us specific information or arguments either in support of or against the bill," said Dan Conyers, committee chairman for the CYDs.
"If possible, we would like to have these essays by Christmas. Anyone wanting to help, offer
CRUISING TELEPRINTERS
suggestions, or submit an essay should contact me."
Members of the two clubs plan to write a report considering both support and opposition to the lower voting age which will be printed and given to members of the State Affairs Committee. Surveys conducted by members in their hometowns will also be included plus endorsements by Kansas educators and businessmen. Both Republicans and Democrats will be invited to testify at committee hearings to be held late in January or in February.
Arguments presented in the report will hinge upon the educational improvements, legal responsibilities, maturity of youth and the influence of mass communications. Change and development, which has occurred since the voting age was set at 21, will be emphasized.
"Our purpose is to facilitate passage of the bill," Conyers said.
The teleprinters would enable officers to receive printed messages, in addition to the present police radio message. They also would permit the sending of messages to police officers, even if they are away from their vehicles temporarily. Spokesmen said the printed messages would provide "message security" since the teleprinter cannot be monitored.
