Union Station plan gets good odds
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Jackson County Legislature gave overwhelming support Monday to a proposal to turn Kansas City's abandoned Union Station into a gambling casino.
Legislator Roger Cunningham offered the resolution in an attempt to give new life to a state gambling measure. State legislation would allow licensed gambling at the historic depot in Kansas City and on a
The Associated Press
Legislators said the casino proposal might be the city's only hope of saving Union Station because the costly renovation would be borne by private developers rather than tax-payers.
No developers have come forward to save the station for retail or other uses, and voters defeated a tax-supported plan to rehabilitate the station for public use, such as a museum.
riverboat in St. Louis.
Legislator Ed Growney said the casino would be a tourist attraction
that would help bring conventions to the area.
Legislator Carol Coe said that with thousands of Missourians spending money at the Woodlands, the newly opened dog track in Kansas, it was time for Missouri to strike back.
"I'm not really for gambling," she said. "But if people are going to waste their money, it might as well be in Jackson County."
Legislator Robert Hertzog, who cast the only vote against the resolution, said support from the county
legislature would have little impact.
"It doesn't mean anything," he said. "It's just a poll of nine citizens."
State Rep. Ronnie DePasco introduced legislation for legalized gambling at Union Station during the last General Assembly session, but the proposal failed. Some state legislators blamed the measure's failure on the lack of support from Kansas City's business leaders.
Kennedy praises opening of Berlin Wall
DePasco, a Kansas City Democrat, has vowed to try again next year.

WEST BERLIN—Sen. Edward M.
Kennedy today laid two white lilies at the site of his brother's famous 1963 speech and said that the opening of the Berlin Wall was one of the strongest symbols of liberty in modern times.
Several hundred people gathered for the ceremony on the steps of Schoeneberg City Hall. About a dozen protesters opposed to U.S. policies in El Salvador hurled wreaths and black crosses in Kennedy's direction, and police quickly took them away.
Kennedy, D-Mass., ignored the

protesters as he placed the illies at the site where Pres. John F. Kennedy declared, "Ich bin ein Berliner," which means "I am a Berliner."
The speech on June 26, 1983, to 400,000 cheering Berliners was one of Kennedy's most electric moments in office.
He was assassinated in Dallas five
months later, and West Berlin honored his memory with a plaque at city hall.
Sen. Kennedy said in a speech inside city hall that he had come to Berlin 'on behalf of my family and country, on a journey of memory and hope.
"The proudest boast is 'Ich bin ein
Berliner."
He was welcomed by the mayor of West Berlin, Walter Momper, and former chancellor Willy Brandt, who was mayor when the wall was erected on Aug. 13, 1961. Later, Kennedy's motorcade drove through Checkpoint Charlie into East Berlin.
Kennedy described the Nov. 9 opening of the Berlin Wall as representing "the greatest march of liberties in modern times, and perhaps of all time."
"I only wish that President Kennedy could have come here himself to see this new day that is beginning," he said.

sait.
The Department of Revenue did not respond to the request until Nov. 22, when Rolfs sent a memorandum saying that the ratio study would not be available until May, Martin said
"That's unbelievable that you're going to stonewall us that long," Martin said.
Rolfs replied that he had provided the committee with information on the effects of reappraisal, but he did not reply when Martin said that that information was based on faulty protections, not empirical data.
"We have to accept this as the gospel when there's nothing there to back up how you got to these numbers." Martin said.
State Rep. Roy Jr., D-Topeka, asked Rolfs Bill questions, besides extending the tax payment deadline, the administration supported.
Rolfs replied, "I think to suggest that it's possible to come up with a set of proposals to your committee is just not possible at this time."

Frank Ybarra, the governor's deputy press secretary, said Hayden would issue a statement about tax matters to committee finished its work Thursday.
But committee members were not confident that they would have solutions by then.
"We're all frustrated," Wagnon said.

Lindvall said that it was too early to judge the results of the new fee,
