Crossfire on beer fuels duel over Kansas future

In Topeka, Oct. 20, rival camps map advantages ahead of the legislative session. H. J. Tholen of Hays counters Dr. John R. Golden’s anti beer 3.2 campaign, citing polls that show more lawmakers favor legalizing 3.2 beer than oppose it. Tholen notes 21 senate candidates favoring 3.2 versus 16 unfavorably, with lower house figures 31 favorable, 15 unfavorable, and 10 open minded. He argues the anti beer effort is narrowing to tight districts. Kansas remains without a legal intox icant definition amid constitutional prohibition and ongoing open beer sales.
