Kansas Gubernatorial Hopeful Calls for Merit Based Appointments
Lt. Gov. Reynolds Shultz, the Republican candidate, argues for merit standards for the state highway director chosen by a bipartisan panel. He defends remarks about avoiding patronage and notes current director John Montgomery is a newspaper publisher. An unrelated Kansas City ordinance on taxes is ruled unconstitutional.
