Franking privileges permit legislators to send official mail free of charge.
Khline also answered questions yesterday about his residency.
Kline, a KU law student, said he had lived in Lawrence for a year and before that had commuted from Merriam.
He said he registered to vote in Douglas County on June 9, the day before he filed for office.
Merriam is in Johnson County, which is in the 2nd Kansas District.
Wessels said, "Phill Kline doesn't know the 2nd District. He doesn't know the issues.
"The voters know better than that."
Kline preferred to discuss his charges against Slattery.
He said Slattery's mailings had begun arriving in the district Sept. 22, even though regulations stating that legislators could not send any free, mass mailing fewer than 60 days before an election.
Wessels said Slattery's mailings had been delivered to the mail room Sept. 2, a day before the deadline. She said the overload in the mailroom had slowed the mailing.
Kline also questioned the content of
the mailings, saying the four-page newsletter was designed for self-glorification.
Kline said one picture had a man shown wearing a "Slattery for Congress" cap while driving a vehicle carrying Slattery in a parade, and others were unrelated to the regular business and duties of a member of Congress.
When asked how the picture with the man wearing the "Slattery for Congress" cap could be a violation when no one could read the writing, Kline said it was a matter for the Commission on Congressional Mailing Standards to decide. The logo is not readable in the picture.
Wessels said that the mailing was not a violation of the law.
However, Tom Joyce, a spokesman for the commission in Washington, said yesterday afternoon that no complaint had been filed by Kline.
Kline said he would lodge a complaint with the commission.
Joyce said few complaints were found to have merit because the mail room wouldn't accept late mailings and because each mailing was reviewed by a professional who would make recommendations if changes were advisable.
have five of his six cocaine related charges dropped in the plea bargaining process. A new charge of distribution of cocaine was added Monday.
Smoot

ce Monday.
However, people logically could assume the relationship, he said.
"People who are accused of crimes will do strange things," Haney said.
When approached at his home, von Ende said he had no comment. His lawyer, Mark L. Bennett Jr. of Topeka, was unavailable for comment.
"Brad's biggest problem is all the publicity he's gotten for such a small offense." he said.
Haney said that Smoot was being charged for possessing an amount of cocaine the size of a paper clip and that the charge did not deserve so much attention from the press.
Haney and Assistant U.S. Attorney Kurt Shernuk said it was agreed that Smoot would surrender voluntarily and appear Tuesday to the U.S. Magistrate in Topeka.
At Haney's request, Smoot is
staying with friends. Haney would not say where Smoot was staying, only that he was in the state
He would not comment on how Smoot intended to plead.
People in the legal community are terribly concerned for Smoot, said Murrell Bland, president of the Kansas Press Association.
"If he were a jerk or incompetent, it would be a different story." Bland said. "Smoot was a wonderful, considerate person."
Rick Musser, associate professor of journalism at KU, worked with Smoot to arrange programs for Sigma Delta Chi/Society of Professional Journalists when Musser was the adviser for the group.
"I still consider Brad Smoot my friend."
Smoot was for open meetings, open records and the First Amendment, he said.
Kansan reporter Alison Young also contributed information to this story.
Recruiting
Gene A. Budig had placed a bet on this fall's enrollment. Budig, Ambler said, was "uncharacteristically conservative" in his estimate. Ambler guessed the enrollment would surpass the chancellor's estimate — but not by as much as it did.
Continued from p. 1
Ambler reported Budig's joking response: "You're fired, Ambler."
When the first-day enrollment figures were available, Amber, as he stepped into the chancellor's office, said, "I was just going to ask for a nice lunch, but with these figures I think 'I'll ask for a steak dinner.'"
Ambler said this year's large increase had caused a decrease in University efficiency.
Last year, the entire University enrollment, which includes the main campus, off-campus and Medical Center enrollments, increased by 397. In 1984, the increase was only 124 students.
For example, Ambler said there had been many complaints this fall about the office of student financial aid.
"They barely answered the phone; they had so much additional work to do." Ambler said.
Robert Lineberry, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences,
said that because of enrollment increases, professors were spending more time grading assignments and had less time to give individual attention to students.
"Sure we're pleased we have a healthy, high-quality enrollment." Lineberry said, "But we are also having a lot of problems staffing with the resources we have."
Brinkman said that because the University had closely monitored enrollment up to the first day of classes this fall, additional sections had been added to many courses. As a result, fewer students faced closed classes, he said.
Lineberry said no students had been turned away from English 101 and the basic math courses.
However, almost every other undergraduate course had turned away interested students. Lineberry said.
Even Chinese 104 turned away 11 students.
"We don't think of that as a capacity enrollment course," Lineberry said.
Ambler said he would rather be facing the problems of an increasing enrollment than those connected with a declining enrollment.
