Media reap benefits of PAC money
By BRIAN LEVINSON Staff Reporter
The local media have reaped the most financial benefits from the influx of political action committee funds into customaign treasuries of local candidates.
Nearly 50 percent of the $30,000 spent to finance campaigns for local legislative candidates paid for advertisements in the Lawrence Journal-World and the University Daily Kansan KLWN and KKKX radio stations.
About $60,000 was received in campaign contributions by candidates in the 44th, 45th and 46th Districts and Republican Jane Eldredge in the 2nd Senatorial District. Detailed expenditures for incumbent Arnold
Berman's 2nd District campaign were unavailable and were not included in the figures.
THEERE ARE SOME discrepancies in the figures because candidates sometimes make contributions to their own campaigns, called contributions-kind, rather than either as expenses or contributions-kind, at the discretion of the candidate.
Almost $5,000 was spent for advertisements in the Journal-World. Wint Winter Jr., Republican candidate in the 44th District, spent more than $1,600 for Journal-World ads. Willie Moore, the Democratic candidate in the 46th District, was the second biggest advertiser in the Journal-World, spending more than $600.
About $2,500 was spent for campaign ads in the University Daryl Kansan.
Betty Jo Charlton, incumbent Democrat in the 48th District, spent nearly $365 for political advertisements and a $10 million Libertyedge spent $37 on ads in the Kansan.
THE CANDIDATES spent nearly $5,000 for spots on KLWN and KKKX radio stations, 17 percent of all campaign expenditures.
Winter and Kent Snyder, a Republican running in the 145th District, each spent more than $1,000 for advertisements on KLWN. Snyer conferred radio advertising in his campaign, spending only $200 for ads in other media.
Eldride spent just under $1,000 for her ads on KI.WN.
jessie Branson, Democratic candidate in the 45th District, won the only primary election for Governor.

The other major beneficiaries of the PAC money were the U.S. Postal Service and local printing services. The PAC collected $0.00 for postage and printing expenses.

City Commissioners will consider a downtown mall, a suburban mall and the addition of more department stores
"I don't think we're going to do anything until we've exhausted all the alternatives," Carter said.
Mayor Ed Carter said yesterday that he wasn't sure whether commissioners would vote for the variance.

JVJ approached the city last year with a plan for a suburban mall, which commissioners rejected.
Consultants told the commissioners last month that the firm's alternate plan for a downtown mall was not financially feasible and recommended, instead, adding several department stores to the downtown area.
The request for the variance would be considered first by the Planning/ Commission and would not come before the City Commission until December.

Senator Berman's Record on UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
We sometimes lose sight of the fact that the principal role of a major university is the education and training of its students. It would be a travesty to deny any Kansan, because of financial circumstances, the opportunity to obtain the best possible education. It is ridiculous, at a public institution, to require students to pay for the buildings within which they are being educated. It is important that student concerns continue to be heard and responded to by the Kansas Legislature.
