Accusing state welfare officials of violating federal regulations, the attorney for Dana Wray appealed Friday a recent cut in the hours of state aid Wray receives.
Wray appeals cut in school aid
Rose Stewart, Wray's attorney, in a hearing with the Kansas Department of Health and Rehabilitation improperly by reducing the number of hours Wray could have an aide. Wray, a quadriplegic, requires an aide to help her attend classes at the University of Kansas.
The SRS, however, says it acted within the law.

ONE WEEK BEFORE the fall semester started, state welfare officials told Wray they were reducing the number of hours the aide worked, from 30 to 15.
In the six-hour appeal hearing, Stewart told Joe Babicki, baffled referee, that under federal guidelines for aid to the handcapped, welfare officials could not

deny qualified handicapped persons any benefits.
Charles Hamm, attorney for the SRS, said that the department acted legally in making the cut and that it was not the state's capability to give Wraxy everything she desired.
"IT IS THE agency's duty to see that the girl is rehabilitated," Hamm said. "She may not get everything that she wants, but that is not the function of the agency."
Hamm said he thought the duties of Wray's school aide could be performed by

"The nurse aides are just to provide my physical care," Wray said. "They've never done my school work. They're not trained for it."
The results of the hearing will not be known for several weeks. A transcript will be made of the testimony and sent with the committee report. Three remember appeals committee in Topeka.

A record of 9 wins and 165 losses does not merit continued support.
The official Kansas House of Representatives Journals show the exact bills sponsored or co-sponsored by each State Representative. A review of the official journals shows that Mike Glover has gained passage of only 9 legislative bills during his six consecutive years in office. During those six years he has sponsored or co-sponsored 169 bills that were not considered worthy by the other members of the Legislature and did not pass.
During the important 1977 legislative session, Mike Glover went on a vacation to the Bahamas. In the heat of the 1978 session, Mike Glover vacationed in Southern California. Mike Glover now wants you to believe he was on "conference committees or constituent business" when he missed 122 votes on important issues.
9 wins and 165 losses is a poor record, and it clearly shows how ineffective Mike Glover has been as a legislator among his peers.
It is time for a change! Willie Amison will be a respected and effective voice for the 44th District. Willie Amison will be a State Representative you can believe and believe in.
