Voting Guide Lists Candidates, Platforms
By MARION McCOY
The second in a series of citizen's pamphlets titled the "Kansas Voter's Guide" was published at the beginning of the month under the supervision of Marvin Meade, senior analyst of the Government Research center.
The pamphlets which are intended as general information type pamphlet deal with different subjects every year. The previous one which concerned the nominating processes in the Kansas primaries was published at the beginning of the summer.
Any research done by the division may result in a Citizen's pamphlet type publication or in some other form of publication. Appropriations from the State legislature formulate the means by which the research department is able to undertake these projects, all of which have been approved by the University.
The mailing list is composed of several groups: all state officials, county government officials, and smaller groups consisting of libraries around the state and other research groups. Seven thousand pamphlets were printed, with the greatest mailing list consisting of 1,400 requests written in from people throughout the state.
Although there is a limited supply, Mr. Meade stated that the pamphlets were available for students.
The purpose of the pamphlet is to set forth the requirements and procedures for registering and voting in Kansas, the party platforms, and the names of party workers, both amateur and professional, who form the backbone of a major political campaign.
In addition, the guide offers biographical information about the candidates for state-wide and national political offices. Information about candidates for county office, district judgeships, and the state legislature has not been included principally because of space limitations and printing deadlines which do not allow sufficient time to compile this information.
Also, there is a greater opportunity for the voters to familiarize themselves with these candidates, either through personal acquaintance or through local newspaper coverage of their candidacies.
Mr. Mead said that the Research center hopes that the effect of the pamphlet will be to send voters to the polls with more complete information than they might otherwise have, to encourage the amateur politician-private citizen to take a more active part in his political party, and to make possible more effective communication with the political candidates and party workers listed.
The 1953 eruption of Kilauea volcano in Hawaii lasted 136 days. It was the third longest eruption in recorded history, says the National Geographic Society.
Hollywood — (U.P.)— Film star Marilyn Monroe, the nation's favorite pin-up, scheduled a press conference for today in the wake of her marital breach with former baseball great. Joe DiMaggio.
Marilyn to Meet Newsmen Today
The press conference was to be held at the Beverly Hills honeymoon cottage where the actress and the baseball idol still were living on friendly terms.
Miss Monroe's attorney, Jerry Giesler, said the famed calendar model would display only body curves and would not discuss the legal curve she tossed the former Yankee Clipper in filing for divorce.
One of the servants at the cottage told reporters staked outside that she thought DiMaggio also might appear at the press conference, but would not divulge a reason for her belief.
Nevertheless, informed filmland sources speculated that Miss Monroe could hardly evade mentioning her widely-publicized marital rift when besieged by the press at the conference.
"Miss Monroe won't say anything about the divorce action," the Hollywood attorney said. "She will only pose for pictures."
Mr. Giesler the divorce suit for Miss Monroe in Santa Monica superior court yesterday. It charged Mr. DiMaggio with causing the actress "grievous mental suffering and anguish."
The actress said in her suit she would not seek alimony. Mr. Di-Maggio, who has not yet hired an attorney, has 10 days in which to either contest the case or give her the divorce by default.
Mr. Giesier handed Mr. DiMaggio divorce papers shortly after filing the suit.
"Joe accepted the papers like any gentleman would." Mr. Giesler said. "He said nothing, or perhaps, he murmured 'thank you.' I don't remember."
The attorney said Marilyn was in bed when he took the divorce papers to her to sign.
