Carlin urges constitutional change to save rail lines and boost soybean exports
Carlin argues the state must back railroads with a constitutional amendment due to limits in the Kansas Constitution. He says funding sources must diversify for highways and that the rail lines cannot be saved by railroads or federal aid alone. He lauds a record soybean harvest of 48.6 million bushels and outlines rising export totals from 15.2 million tons in 1977 to an expected 22.5 million next year, noting awards for top yields and farm-market efforts.
