Garden City Telegram cites assistnats working hours amid vacancies
The Chicago office notes assistants averaged 66 hours last week and 60 hours last month. Officials attribute the workload to budget pinch, not Washington policy shifts. Congress imposed a hiring freeze after Johnson tax surcharge, with 181 assistant vacancies and 118 secretary clerical posts. Of 299 total vacancies, 50 slots may be filled under the freeze.

Highway Officials Blamed For Misguiding the Public
Rep. John B. Unruh criticizes highway department officials for misinforming taxpayers about HB 1142 and funding shifts. He cites a Dodge City meeting on May 20 where comments from 6th District highway commissioner Danas Kampschroeder claimed western Kansas would lose construction funds, contradicting state directives to split funds between freeways and regular projects. Unruh asserts the legislature set a 50 50 split and warns misallocation will hurt the sixth district after July 1 1971.
