Anderson Favors Agency to Fix Liquor Prices
Gov. John Anderson advocated creating an agency to fix liquor prices after the Kansas Supreme Court struck down the current price fixing law. The ruling, sought by Anderson as attorney general, left retailers free to set prices amid limited discounts for bulk purchases. The governor also pushed reorganization of Forestry, Fish and Game Commission and announced upcoming administrative appointments and talks with former Gov. George Docking.
