Legislature nears finale
TOPEKA-Athe 1795 Kansas Legislature reconvenes this morning to begin what could only anywhere from two days to four days of heavy work
Up for consideration are conference committee reports from 40 committees appointed before the fall 2015 start, or compromises on the committee reports of previous different versions.
Among them were major appropriations bills totaling more than half the state's anticipated nearly $1.5 billion fiscal 1967 budget, and such controversial measures as creating a state landlord-tenant act; giving pay increases to all state employees, elected officials and legislators; authorizing twice-monthly pay for state employees; making even more controversial by an amendment placed on it in the senate providing for automatic dues deductions from state paychecks for unions and professional organizations.
Court hears top penalty case
WASHINGTON—Existing death penalty statutes still give too much discretion to juries, prosecutors and others in determining who shall die, and are just as unconstitutional as the laws struck down by the Supreme Court in 1972, the court was told Monday.
"Legislators are not fools," Anthony G. Amsterdam of Stanford University Law School told the court. "They know what they're doing. They know that the death penalty will be averted from all but a disfavored few."
Amsterdam represented condemned killer Jesse Thurman Fowler of North Carolina in a punitive punishment case to come before the Supreme Court, the 1972 Roe v. Wade.
The court's action in the current case could determine whether capital punishment will continue in the United States. No one has been executed.

Don't Get Stuck!
The House action came after Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger testified that the money was needed to negotiate a humane solution to the war.
Questioned by CBS newsman about the effect of congressional cuts in South Vietnam, Mr. Chung said the moment that the failure of the Congress to appropriate the military aid requested certainly raised doubts about the ability of the South Vietnamese to defend them.
Instead of Waiting Until the Last Minute to Plan Your Move Home, and end up throwing up your hands in despair, rent a trailer or truck to fit your needs. Do it safely, economically: do it right. Reserve now.
Ford said the Nixon administration had requested $1.4 billion in aid for the present fertilizer program.
Ford made the charge in a CBS-TV interview broadcast from the White House, hours after a House committee approved a $300 million aid package for South Vietnam.
WASHINGTON (AP)—President Ford said again Monday night that South Vietnam's deteriorating military position could be at least partially blamed on Congress' failure to appropriate money requested for military and economic aid.
He said he didn't think South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu would have withdrawn his military forces from central Vietnam, a country if he had been assured of the aid.

Kisinger refused to give details on what negotiations would involve.
"Everybody realizes the situation in South Vietnam is very tenuous," Chairman George H. Mihon, "Tex," said after the debate. How could we know whether this will help, We think it may."
He said military aid could also provide stability needed to evacuate reprisal-threatened South Vietnam officials as well as Americans from that country.

The Army chief of staff told the com-
militarily defensible but said that aid could prevent an abrupt and total takeover of the country by the North Vietnamese and Viet
"In our view," Kissinger said, "the willingness of Congress to approve our request will affect our ability to bring matters to a controlled solution."
After the testimony the committee approved 36 to 15 an appropriations bill including $165 million military aid for South Vietnam and $165 million humanitarian aid.
"The South Vietnamese have nowhere else to turn," he said.

He also said that although a new South Vietnamese government hadn't yet been formed, it probably would lead to some sort of negotiations.
