Kansas liquor laws to allow stores possible Sunday sales
STATE
TOPEKA. Down but not out, legislation allowing liquor stores to open on Sundays was revived yesterday - with fresh language permitting convenience and grocery stores to peddle beer on Sundays as well.
Cora Kalukut, Lubumbashi, Congo, senior, painted a craft for Mother's Day yesterday in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall. It was the first year for the event and was free. Student Union Activities sponsored the event.
Both provisions were approved in the House last year. But the Senate has twice defeated Sunday liquor sales this year and has not voted on Sunday beer sales in convenience and grocery stores
sales in convenience and general Legislators were forced to address the state's liquor laws after the Kansas Supreme Court in March 2003 upheld Wyandotte County's adoption of a local ordinance allowing Sunday sales.
Kansas, have since adopted Sunday sales laws. If legislators adjourn this year without making the Liquor Control Act uniform, those communities could continue allowing Sunday sales - and others could follow suit.

Television station receives possible letter from killer
WICHITA - A Wichita television station turned over to police yesterday a suspicious letter it believes may have come from a serial killer.
Police did not immediately return phone calls for comment.
Frye declined to discuss the letter's contents, saying only it was suspicious enough that the station thought it should let authorities decide whether it was authentic.
Authorities believe the letter may have come from a serial killer known as BTK, for "Bind, Torture, Kill" who killed at least seven people between 1974 and 1978. In March, BTK resurfaced when he sent a letter to The Wichita Eagle newspaper claiming responsibility for an eighth killing in 1986.
Bush administration requests money for foreign operations
NATION
WASHINGTON — The Bush administration will ask Congress for an additional $25 billion for U.S. operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, Republican congressional aides said yesterday, a change from the White House's earlier plans to not request such money until after the November elections.
Painting for Mom
White House budget chief Joshua Bolten and Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz journeyed to the Capitol yesterday to present the proposal to House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-III., Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., and other top Republicans.
The request comes with the Bush administration and the military facing widespread criticism at home and abroad for the abuse of Iraqi war prisoners, including investigations into the deaths of 14 of the detainees.
The $25 billion request is for the
federal budget year that begins next Oct. 1, the aides said. In recent weeks, administration officials have raised the possibility that they also will need extra money for the final weeks of this fiscal
year as well, with many members of Congress saying they believe billions will be needed.
