Kansas House approves liquor by the drink compromise
The Kansas House voted 90 to 33 to approve a compromise bill legalizing liquor by the drink in restaurants in 36 counties where voters approved the issue. The proposal also would allow 3.2 percent beer sales on Sundays in certain taverns and permit liquor stores to advertise prices starting in 1989. Tax increases of 12 to 15 million annually were part of earlier discussions.
