Bradley says bill would shortchange county
A bill under consideration in the Kansas Senate would reduce the Douglas County road and bridge fund by 48 percent, the chairman of the Douglas County Commission said yesterday.
The bill will keep 75 percent of the road and bridge taxes paid by city residents from being used by the county. At present, the county's road and bridge fund comprises

Bradley testified before the Senate Local Clerk in the first day of public hearings in the first day of public hearings.
Although the bill would allow more street

"We haven't taken a position on it yet," Brent McFall, management analyst for the city, said. "Naturally it would be helpful to us since we are the ones who maintain the infrastructure."
"HOWEVER, HISTORICALLY we have had a good relationship with the county and its people," she said.
Workshop to help self-defeatists
Procrastination, overeating and perfectionism are forms of self-defeating behavior that can be controlled. Arthur Blankman, who had a sense of counseling at the University of Kansas, said:
"The crazy thing about self-defeating behavior is that you know when you are doomed to fail."
Thomas will lead a workshop titled "How to Counteract Self-Defeating Behavior" from 7 to 10 pm. on Feb. 20 and Feb. 27 in the Wahui Room of the Kansas Union.
The workshop is offered by the Adult Life Resource Center, a division of KU's resource center.
Beulah Duncan, coordinator of the workshop for the Resource Center, said this would be the second year the workshop was offered.
THOMAS, WHO led the workshop last year, said. "The methodology that I present is easily understood and provides people an means of looking at their own behavior."
The purpose of the workshop is to help participants understand how self-defeating behavior is learned, how it is reinforced and how it can be controlled.
"The workshop examines the simplest

"The they are engaging in habitual behavior, which has been learned in the past," he said. "At the time it was learned, however, it might have been constructive.
"For example, children learn dependent behavior but then sometimes bring this behavior into adulthood, which is usually not productive."
In many cases, people learn a behavior that later becomes self-defeating, he said.
The workshop costs £25 and is open to the public. However, Duncan said there are only a few of them.

The road and bridge fund is collected from city and county residents at a rate of 4.7 mills. The mill rate represents the number of tax dollars ($4.70) a property owner must pay for each $1,000 of assessed property value.
Bradley said the county would lose about $400,000 from the county's road and bridge fund.
"There are a lot of things the county does for the city that are outside of the road and bridge fund," Bradley said. She said the county was responsible for the collection and distribution of taxes, for the ambiance service and for election costs.
Under the bill, the four cities in the county, Lawrence, Eudora, Lecompton and Baldwin City, would receive the reapportioned funds. Each city currently maintains its own streets through its general budget.
"If the state continues giving us more responsibility and taking away our funds, then we are going to have a real problem," she said.

2 Lawrence men jailed in hospital drug holdup
Lawrence police arrested two men Tuesday night in connection with a June 24 armed robbery of the pharmacy at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
The police said Charles A. Putman, in 1045 E. 32rd St., was being held in the Douglas Court jail yesterday in $35,000 bond. Brian B. Gates, 20, Route 2, Lawrence, also is being held in the jail. His bail was set at $2,500.
Police said Putman was accused of being one of three men involved in the pharmacy holdup last summer.
Gates is charged with aiding in the commission of the robbery, police said.
Police said three men, at least one carrying a gun, entered the pharmacy and ordered two employees to give them narcotic drugs from the pharmacy's safe. The employees were then bound and gagged.
Sgt. Francis Alexander, a detective in the Lawrence police department, said that the hospital estimated the value of the stolen drugs at $300, but that the street value of the drugs was much higher.
