6 Friday, April 3. 1987 / University Daily Kansan THE FAR SIDE By GARY LARSON The Greystokes at marriage counseling Highway vote. Give us this vote and let us stand for a majority (within the Republican Party) that can run this party." Continued from p.1 But after the extraordinary meeting, Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole told the Senate, "I think it's safe to say no minds were changed." Reagan, after deciding on short notice to travel from the White House to the Capitol, spent two hours trying to press his case. First he met with all Republican senators, then with the 13 who sided with the Democrats in the first vote. "The president is heightening the stakes by coming up here," Byrd said. "But I don't blame him, giving it the old college try." At issue was a measure that permits states to raise the speed limit to 65 mph on rural stretches of interstate highways and earmarks funds for more than 100 highway demonstration projects tail-made for individual lawmakers. Reagan vetoed the bill last week, calling it "budget-buster that was wrong." Democrats maintained that the bill was under budget and said that sustaining the veto would cause the loss of 800,000 jobs during the warm-weather construction season. But beyond the legislation itself, the veto fight became a test of Reagan's standing and prestige after months of political damage caused The Senate voted on Wednesday 65-35, with one vote to spare, to sustain the president's action, but a change of heart by Democrat Terry Sanford of North Carolina, a 69-year-old freshman senator, left Democratic candidates and considering the veto on the second, consideration vote yesterday. by the Iran-contra affair. The House voted 350-73 on Tuesday to override the veto, but it takes a two-thirds vote of both houses to enact the bill into law over a veto. Sen. Alfonse M. D'Amato of New York, one of the 13 Republicans voting against the president, said this legislation was the "wrong area to test political wills." Panel votes to stay in waste agreement TOPEKA — The Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee yesterday rejected a proposal to withdraw Kansas from a regional waste compact. The Associated Press The committee voted 7-4 against amending a bill so that it would pull the state out of the Central Interstate Low-Level Radioactive Waste Compact, which includes Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Nebraska and Oklahoma. The committee unanimously endorsed the original measure, which would ban the burial of such waste in Kansas unless the Legislature made an exception. State Sen. Francis Gordon, R Highland, said pulling out of the compact would be premature because a host state for the dump site has not been chosen. Congress has set a 1984 deadline for compacts to choose host states for regional dump sites. The sites must be operating by 1993. Kansas opponents also have criticized a recent study by a consulting firm the compact hired. Opponents of the compact fear Kansas will become the host state for the regional dum.
