KU officials protest KSU energy funding
Part of about $1.2 million now earmarked for Kansas State University may come to the University of Kansas instead if KU officials protest a recommendation in Gov. John Carlin's budget.
The money, made available through the closing of the Kansas Energy Office, is designated in Carlin's budget to go to the Cooperative Extension Service at K-State.
But at a meeting with the governor, planned for next week, KU officials might ask that part of energy research应 accordingly toward energy research at KU.
we have made some people in Topeka aware of the fact that we are interested in some of that money." Thomas Patton, acting associate vice chancellor for research and graduate studies, said yesterday.
"We think that some of those energy functions may more appropriately be carried out at this institution."
Patton said that he, Chancellor Gene A. Budig and Bob Riordan, acting director of the KU Energy Research Center, recently received
letters in which Carlin invited them to Topeka to talk about the research money.
Mike Swenson, Carolin's assistant press secretary, said that the governor requested the spillover of Energy Office money into the energy service at K-State because that program often subcontracted with KU and Wichita State University.
Patton said, "It was the logical thing for him to do. Subcontracting may be totally appropriate, but until I have been convinced that it say whether this is good or bad."
The Cooperative Extension Service at K-State is more than a decade older than the KU Energy Research Center, now in its second year, and has received state money in the past.
Richard Hayter, a director of the K-State energy program, said that only half of the recommended $1.2 million would be funneled to K-State through the closing of the state energy office.
The K-State service has been receiving about $500,000 a year from the new defunct energy office.
TRIPPING WITH DR. HARRY SCHWARTZ
The February 8th issue of Newsweek magazine contains an essay entitled "We Need to Ration Medicine," by Dr. Harry Schwartz of Columbia University's College of Physicians and Surgeons. Dr. Schwartz claims that the cost of "Medicaid and care mentitlements is forcing cut in士 .. education, law enforcement aid to the poor (and) scientific research." After noting that some $10% of the gross national product (GNP) goes for health care, Dr. Schwartz describes as "mimics" our having "adopted an ethics which deflates, in effect, that the medical possible must be done for every human life born in this country. To make that possibility must be done with free medical programs of free medical care, like the Medical, and others in the private sector." This lamentable state of affairs exists. Dr. Schwartz tells us, "because under the misapprehension that we had great shortages, we have created a huge surplus of physicians and have built more than enough hospitals and facilities to take care of any reasonable need."
When Dr. Schwartz attributes governmental lethargy in the public sector to "Medicaid's unsuitable appetite..." and medicare entitlements," he ignores the fact that this difference was already well established at the time of Medicaid's birth in 1965. While bemoaning the percentage of the GNP which goes for health care, Dr. Schwartz overlooks the all-important part that the fees set by his peers play in this sad state of affairs.
sad fact that of the democratic ethic "that everything possibly possible must be done for every human being born in this country," Dr. Schwartz proposes "formal rationing based on a consensus developed after proper debate." He then suggests several possible forms this consensus rationing might take. One form, financial rationing, would involve "banning government or private insurance systems that pay for care simple and limited illnesses, thus encouraging patient trust in rescuing or doctors
"A second alternative be a decision to deny free care to individuals for whom there is no good future. Expensive and heroic medical care might also be denied to those unfortunate babies burn with Down's syndrome, or serious spina bifida or other ailments that doom a child from birth to a sadly reduced quality of life. Would the "proper debate envisioned by Dr. K. Shah" for the prospective victims of this disease? This the good doctor doesn't need to hear the heart of the issue when he concedes that 'Any effort to ration medical care is certain to affect some people adversely and to affront our humanitarian instincts.'
Dr. Schwartz's underlying claim that "we have created a huge surplus of physicians, hospitals and facilities" is so much bafflerdash! Although there are always a great many well-qualified applicants to every medical school, these institutions maintain a selective mechanism which annually rejects most of this group. With such a wasteful procedure in continuous operation is it any wonder that medical costs and care are beyond the reach of millions of individuals?
Several miraculous vaccines, intrauterine surgery and organ transplantation are just a few of the incredible offerings of medicine available to some segments of the population today. It is, perhaps, his willingness to take seriously all hallucinatory dreams that has left Dr. Schwartz unable to realize a trismus articulated by Hippocrates over 23 centuries ago." Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity."

Bill to deprogram called unconstitutional
By COLLEEN CACY
A bill that would legalize deprogramming of religious cult members is probably unconstitutional, according to some local state
Staff Reporter
The bill, which a Kansas House committee approved last week, is scheduled for debate on the House floor tomorrow. It would allow a judge to appoint a temporary guardian shown to be under 'mind control'.
"The bill puts a great deal of power in the hands of the judge," State Rep. John Solhach, D-D Lawrence, said yesterday. "It seems to be overly
Members of Rev. Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church and members of Maranatha Campus Ministries, two groups who were mentioned specifically at the committee hearing on the bill, were not available for comment.
He said several members of religious organizations in Lawrence were concerned that the bill would violate their right to freedom of religion
Sobach, a member of the House Judiciary Committee that held hearings on the bill, said he voted against it because he was "not convinced it was ready to leave the committee."
"I suppose it could be abused," he said. "It's a tool for someone to bring someone into court proceedings."
The bill specifies that an organization

"When I was a teenager, I joined the Marine Corps," he said. "Maybe if there was a law then, they would have gotten out of war, a military Jordan and I would have gotten out of it."
The Kansas City Ballet will make its Lawrence debut,as part of the 1982 University Arts Festival, at 8:00 pm Wednesday, March 10, in the University Theatre in Murphy Hall.
She said that even if the Kansas Legislature passed the bill, it might be challenged in court and ruled unconstitutional.
