Severance tax fight rises as Carlin tours Kansas
Opponents accuse Gov. Carlin of lying and school boards of wasteful spending as severance tax proposals falter. Carlin's three city tour aimed to revive support, but lawmakers expect no revival next session. KIOGA held a press conference in El Dorado citing testimony against the tax and criticizing state spending. Sen. Gaines urged budget restraints on districts, arguing local boards push bloated staffing while road funding remains questioned.

Car Import Quota Seen Passing If No Voluntary Deal
Senator Bob Dole said a three year import quota on Japanese cars is likely to win Senate approval unless a voluntary reduction agreement is reached. He noted the Finance Committee would consider the bill May 12 and pledged help to bridge the gap between governments. The Japanese Diet delegation limited remarks to annual import levels, saying this year would not exceed 1.9 million units, while President Reagan moved to ease some U.S. auto regulations.

Students face higher costs in Kansas colleges
Kansas college students face steeper bills as state and federal funding cuts push tuition increases. A Kansas Board of Regents committee at Emporia State University reviews how much tuition may rise and whether out-of-state students pay more. Chair Glee Smith notes lawmakers funded less than requested, and the 25 percent cost share goal has never been reached, with historic student contributions around 22 percent.
