Republicans discuss issues
By Gary Duda Of the Kansan staff
Kansas Attorney General Robert Stephan and Secretary of State Jack Brier headed a list of 12 speakers who promoted Republican ideals Saturday at the Kansas College Republican Leadership Conference at the Kansas Union.
Jim Monty, Overland Park junior and publicity chairman for the KU College Republicans, said the meeting was intended to promote communication between college Republicans and college Republicans. Monty said the speakers would do this by discussing their various political ideas.
Other featured speakers were Kansas House Speaker Mike Hayden, RAtwood, and Fletcher Bell, state insurance commissioner.
Stephan spoke to more than 25 college Republicans in the Kansas University about his political views. He spoke to students, including the national debt.
Trade deficits, Stephan said, have left the United States in the poorest economic condition in years.
Robert Stephan
"The United States of today is not what it was a few years ago," he said. "For the first time in the history of our nation, we are a debtor country."
Stephan said the state of Kansas also was suffering economic problems. He favored several measures to help the situation, including the lottery and parimutuel betting, but he said the Kansas Legislature had
kept the people from voting on the issues.
"It's time to give the people of our state a chance to vote on the issue," he said.
Stephan said the state's poor economy had resulted in loss of business to other states. He said if the state could not keep its existing business, it was unlikely new businesses would want to come to Kansas.
Stephan also spoke about his intentions to run for governor in 1986.
"I'm not running for attorney general again," he said. "I'm seriously looking at the 1986 gubernatorial campaign."
Stephan said he already had a staff to help with the campaign. He said his campaign, "Kansans for Stephan," would be based in Wichita.
Brier also gave his views on other political issues. He said he supported President Reagan's "Star Wars" proposal because it meant destroying weapons, not people.
"Can you imagine a better way to have a war if we have to have one?" he said.
