HOLTON — Fletcher Bell, state insurance commissioner, confers with Jim Braden, speaker of the Kansas House, at the 2nd District Republican caucus.
Area GOP selects delegates
By Jill less
Kansan staff writer
HOLTON — Kansas' favorite son, presidential candidate Bob Dole, received unanimous support from Republican National Convention delegates and alternates at the 2nd District GOP caucus here Saturday.
The three delegates chosen were 2nd District Chairman Jim Cates, Topeka; Lana Oleen, Manhattan, and Ellen Schirmer, Holton.
The alternates were former Secretary of State Jack Brider; Dorothy Werts, wife of state Sen. Merrill Werts, Junction City; Marj Schnacke, Topeka, and Chuck McAtee, Topeka.
State Insurance Commissioner Fletcher Bell, Lawrence resident, was chosen as district nominee to fill one of 14 other seats at the Republican National Convention in New Orleans in August. The nomination will have to be confirmed on the state convention in Topeka.
The 2nd District convention was held at the Jackson County 4-H
building in Holton. Convention delegates, who were elected early this month in county caucuses, cast votes for those nominated from the floor to attend the national convention.
Cates and Bell were elected by acclamation. Bell was the only delegate chosen from Douglas County. Other delegates campaigned with buttons, fliers and speeches, proclaiming their desire to represent and support Dole at the national convention. Two delegates, Schirmer and Werts, were defeated once before their names were resubmitted and they were selected over new challengers.
Kansas state guidelines require that an equal number of men and women be delegates and alternates. The process selection alternates between a male delegate position and a female position.
Douglas County has 28 delegates to the district caucus, giving them the same number of votes. Shawnee County, the largest in the district, has 87 votes. The number of delegates is determined by
several factors, including turnout and support for Republican candidates in previous elections and the percentage of registered voters.
Counties in the 2nd district are Atchison, Brown, Clay, Donavan, Douglas, Geary, Jackson, Jefferis, Madera, Menaoba, Matowich and Riley.
Dole supporters took all 20 delegates for the national convention in district caucuses across the state Saturday.
In other districts, the delegates are:
3rd District: (elected without competition) U.S. Pup, Jan Meyers; state Senate Majority Leader Paul "Burd" Buru, Leawood; Susie Harman, Prairie Village, and Tom Beal, Prairie Village. Alternates are: State Rep. Phil Kline, Overland Park; Rich Kowalski, Lenexa, a member of the Kansas Corporation Commission; Zelma Sully, Kansas City, Kan.; and Virginia Bundy, Paola.

Arvilla Vickers, an official from the Lawrence Human Relations department, speaks about discrimination in housing.
Speaker stresses tenants' rights
Kansan staff writer
By Christine Martin
Education is the only way that discrimination in housing can be eliminated, a human relations specialist said at a Lawrence Tenants Association meeting yesterday.
The specialist, Arvilla Vickers, a housing manager for the Human Relations/Human Resources Department of Lawrence, told association members that both landlords and tenants needed to be aware of their rights and responsibilities.
"Unless we raise our consciousness, discrimination to one degree or two."
She said that many people don't know they were protected under law.
"Discrimination happens in our beautiful town," she said. "It's not as bad as some other places, but that is no excuse for it to continue."
Ordinance 5436 of the Lawrence city code prohibits discrimination in housing based on race, sex, religion, or origin, age, ancestry or handicap.
Unless we raise our consciousness, discrimination to one degree or another will happen. '

Anyone who thinks he has been discriminated against because of any of those factors in a matter involving housing can file a complaint with the Lawrence Human Relations/Human Resources Department, the Kansas Commission on Civil Rights or the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

"If there need to be changes, we can ask for those changes," Stauffer said.
Gregg Stauffer, tenants association president, said the existence of such laws against discrimination was a start in changing for the better.
The department then determines from the investigation whether there is evidence of discrimination. If evidence exists, the department works for a conciliation between the parties.
When a tenant files a complaint in writing, the Human Relations/Human Resources Department conducts an investigation by interviewing other tenants confidentially.

"When someone comes in with a complaint, it is an allegation until proven otherwise." Vickers said.
If conciliation doesn't work, the case then goes before the Human Relations Commission in a public hearing.
