Iowa panel blocks 20000 year Kennedy hire plan
The interim committee failed to approve hiring Dr. Robert Kennedy at 20000 annually by a 5 to 5 vote. The panel hinted the board of controls may be overstepping its authority as it shifts to a formal table of organization for all staff earning 12000 plus. Meanwhile Representative David Stanley urged voluntary private gifts to support salaries at Iowa mental health institutions amid debate over state funding. Governor Erbe disputed the gloom over Iowa mental health funding. The patrols report speeding enforcement yielding traffic safety notes and a death toll rise on county and local roads.

Governor Erbe Sets Price For 200 Photos Debate
Governor Norman Erbe approved spending 408 dollars for 200 photos of himself, triggering a controversy after the state executive council backed the purchase. He said he had prepaid 586 dollars to Treasurer Abraham for other photos since taking office in January. Democratic leader Lex Hawkins questioned the expense, while Rep John Duffy sought Attorney General Hultman’s view on legality. Erbe noted a back office misunderstanding led to about 700 copies of a periodic newsletter being mailed to 245 intended recipients.
