Legislature Plans Kansas City Trip
The Kansas Legislature planned a morning session then a trip to Kansas City Kansas for a tour and social evening. A special train would carry lawmakers to inspect the 18th Street extension of the Kansas Turnpike and be hosted by the Kansas City Chamber of Commerce. The group previously toured the turnpike project in 1957. A bill giving Kansas bidders a two percent preference on state contracts was recommended for passage, with details on how it would apply if bids are close. A House sub committee said the State Highway Patrol does not need 50 more troopers but recommended raising salaries about 10 percent and filling 15 vacancies. Docking urged more troopers and noted funding would be sought as available. A proposal to tax big trucks at ten miles per tax and a one mill rate, with exemptions, was heard with opponents to speak later. Senate Ways and Means opened hearings on higher education budgets focusing on faculty salaries, with Docking recommending no increases while schools seek substantial raises to align Kansas salaries with the national level.
