Kansas proposes more highway troopers and higher pay
A bill in the Kansas Legislature, urged by Sen. Mahon, would raise the patrol from 100 to 125 troopers by next July and add 25 more by July 1, 1956. It would require the superintendent to have 10 years in the force and create seven new lieutenant positions. Salaries would range from 800 to 1500 dollars annually, with lieutenant pay at 400 dollars a month.
