portance for the establishing of school transportation facilities to provide an adequate, safe and economical system for our rural schools.
We are particularly conscious of the necessity of a general increase of teachers salaries which are disproportionately low throughout the state and pledge ourselves to some definite means of correcting this situation.
We recognize the extreme need of accommodations for students attending our state educational institutions, and we recommend legislation designed to meet this emergency.
Agriculture—We pledge ourselves to work for an expansion of markets for Kansas farm products and for processing them within the state to the greatest possible extent. We advocate research along the lines of discovering new and improved crops and new uses for all farm products, with special consideration for those in supply production.
We pledge the full cooperation of the state in all programs for rural settlement as farm to market roads, expanded educational opportunities, extended rural electrification and improved community facilities for health and well being.
Prohibition—We believe the propriety of the Kansas prohibitory amendment is being questioned by so many Kansas people that it has become a controversial issue of such importance that voters should have the right of self-expression. This question does not present a political issue. It presents a moral issue that should be determined by the citizens of Kansas on a non-partisan basis, and we challenge the opposition party to so approach the question.
Therefore, we recommend that the 1947 Legislature should submit a constitutional amendment for the apportionment of seats in the November, 1948 general election.
Highways—We are faced with the huge task of completing the gap caused by war and the building of a
modern highway system adequate for the needs of the years ahead.
We have undertaken a vast program of improving and extending our state system of highways and have started a long-range, secondary road program, statewide in scope, to bring, as quickly as possible, improved highways to the farm, the home, the church and the school.
To reach this goal, sufficient funds must be provided, commensurate with the financial ability of our citizens, to match all available Federal aid and to carry on our highway program.
If present sources for obtaining the required revenue prove inadequate, then we favor making such changes that the necessary to secure the results desired.
Industrial Development—The Republican party will strive to strengthen the position of industries we now have and offer the finest of opportunity for those who come to Kansas. We have the finest of prospects for industrial development.
Law Enforcement—We pledge to the people of Kansas a program of strict law enforcement.
Tolerance and Equality—We condemn the intolerance, bigotry and
persecution of certain groups becoming manifest throughout the nation.
We feel definitely that any member of a minority group regardless of race, religion, color, racial origin or ancestry has the same inherent rights to employment and opportunity as any member of a majority group.
We pledge ourselves to a continuation of the policy of offering a land of equal opportunity to any honest person, regardless of race, creed or nationality.
Social Problems—We are convinced that a suitable juvenile code would be of great benefit to all concerned. We also feel that it is highly important for the 1947 legislature to establish a reasonable waiting period on the part of those securing marriage licenses.
We further believe that the next legislature should vigorously pursue
