Kansas May Get Legal Liquor Within A Week
Stock in the chances of quick passage of a liquor control bill took a sudden upward jump late Thursday when the forces of Gov. Frank Carlson won a smashing victory in the state house of representatives over a bloe which favored state monopoly of the liquor traffic.
It was not considered likely the bill would be enacted into law today. The house has proposed several amendments to the senate version. Even if it should pass the house with emergency speed, the amended measure still must go back to the upper chamber for approval. That was not expected before next week.
Topcake, Feb. 18—(U.P.)—Kansas,
the dry state, will have legal liquor
within a week, statehouse observers
predicted today.
Upon final passage, the bill will probably be signed post-haste by Governor Carlson. The chief executive asked the legislature to give the liquor problem preference when it convened last month, and it is blocking other urgent legislation. He has indicated he will be pleased to get liquor control out of the way.
Even the governor's signature, however, will not make intoxicants available for in-state purchasers immediately. The measure provides for a state liquor commission, committed to act on the applications of individuals who want sales licenses. That commission has not yet been appointed, and there has been no form prepared for liquor license applicants.
The house voted, 82-37, against a monopolist amendment in the administration supported private enterprise control bill now on the floor.
Administration spokesmen speculated today that it probably will be May or June before liquor goes on sale in the wheat state.
But meanwhile, most Kansans would be able to drink liquor purchased outside the state.
Some citizens will have to forego the pleasure of buying and drinking liquor in their home areas, however, if their townships were among those which voted to stay dry in the constitutional referendum last November.
Major differences in the house and senate versions of the liquor control bill are financial provisions. The senate-passed measure would give 80 per cent of a one dollar a gallon tax to the state, 20 per cent to wet cities. The house version gives all the gallonage tax to the state, and adds a 2 per cent "enforcement tax" which would go to cities and counties.
Both versions would legalize the possession and use of intoxicants in Kansas, and their package sale, after a drought of more than 68 years.
The senate-styled bill would allow Kansans to take a bottle into any public place and order set-ups. The house committee struck out public drinking.
There still will be no liquor sold by-the-drink in the wheat state.

Baldness Can't Be Cured By Mass Production
Paris—(U.P.)—Mass production cures for baldness will never grow hair on anyone's head, according to Marcel Contier. Each bald head requires individual and scientific treatment.
"You're a fraternity man now, Worthal!! The very least you can do is act like one!"
Mr. Contier, a young, energetic man with a full head of hair and a scientific treatment aimed at growing hair on the heads of others, offered
to grow some on the thinning head of a United Press correspondent to prove his point.
"But, don't get me wrong," he said. "I can't grow grass on pavement. If the roots of the hair are dead, nothing can make it grow, and I tell my patients so."
"If a patient I consider incurable insists on being treated, I do it 'free and use him as a guinea pig."
But, Mr. Contier said, he grew hair on the heads of 84 per cent of the 1,803 cases he treated last year, slightly more than half of whom were women.
With his scientific treatments, never the same for any two customers. Mr. Contier claimed that he could increase the density of a patient's hair by 15 to 20 per cent.
It even includes the weighing of a hair from the patient's head with scales of Mr. Contier's devising so delicate that they can weigh one hair. After such an analysis, Mr. centimeter of a single strand of Contier has a fairly good idea of what is causing the baldness and prepares his remedy accordingly.
When a patient enters Mr. Contier's office, he is first subjected to a scientific analysis of his hair and scalp to discover the cause of his baldness. Then a treatment is prepared especially for him.
Mr. Contier said 96 per cent of his patients last year were working people—shop girls and factory and office workers. His prices are set accordingly; 500 frances (a little more than $1) for the analysis and from eight to 1,200 frames for his lotions, he said.
But before a lotion or a chemical is used on the scalp of a patient, it is first tested on the skin of white rats, whose hair Mr. Conlier says is nine times more sensitive to treatment than human hair.
Conter gave two words of warning to people who love their hair; first, don't burn the points of it. That does more harm than good; and second, if you have a full head of hair, it's not always good to massage the scalp.
Some baldness is caused by diseases, such as arthritis and rheumatism, Mr. Contier said, and can be treated only by curing the disease.
Topeka, Feb. 18- (U.F.) The first of a series of Kansas highway bills to be discussed in the state senate advanced to a roll call vote today.
Senate Leery Of New Highway Bill
Sen. Henry S. Buzick, Jr., Sylvan Grove, most outspoken in objection to the bill, said the measure implied that farmers had cheated under the current deduction system.
It is the gasoline refund proposal, under which farmers and commercial users of gasoline would be required to file affidavits with the state to obtain refunds on state taxes paid on gasoline for non-highway use. The system now in practice permits deduction of the tax at the time of purchase.
Senators obviously attempted to steer a middle-of-the-road course while approving the measure in committee of the whole yesterday. Apparently they wanted desperately to let go of the hot potato without hurting farmers' feelings and without appearing to ignore the pitiful condition of Kansas highways.
Dr. Raymond C. Moore, professor of geology and research director of the State Geological survey, has been appointed vice-president in charge of the geology section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Sen. Riley McGregor, sponsor of the measure, almost plaintively said "We have tried to make the bill fair to the farmer by designing it so he can get his refund within 30 days."
"He (the farmer) will feel that it is a charge at his integrity," Senator Buzick said.
Prof. C. G. Lalicker has been elected secretary of the Society of Economic Paleontologists. The latter group are geologists who study fossils as a means of locating oil deposits.
