Anderson Favors Law for Pricing in Kansas
Gov. John Anderson said he would back a bill creating an agency to fix liquor prices after the Kansas Supreme Court struck down the existing price fixing law. The ruling left retailers free to set any price, a policy Anderson said distillers once controlled. He also criticized the Forestry Fish and Game Commission as a “lame duck” agency and proposed a five member panel to avoid tie votes. The governor planned administrative appointments this week and discussed a brief conversation with ex governor George Docking about his move to Washington.
