Sensible tax package debated in Topeka
Editorial praises a proposed Kansas tax package that would raise 53.4 million dollars by increasing the state sales tax to four cents and extending it to liquor while exempting food drugs and prescribed aids. The plan would return funds to local governments to cut property taxes and raise the personal exemption from 600 to 750 dollars. Critics include booze dealers farm machinery interests and cities with local taxes. The piece argues food tax removal aids the needy amid inflation but questions passage while Kansas has a surplus.

The administration plans to borrow 13 percent of spending and pay seven cents of every dollar to debt with no retirement provision. The approach echoes Lyndon Johnson era policies and reads like a risky business budget.
