Malpractice bill passes House with cap on damages
In Topeka the House approved a medical malpractice reform bill with a proposed $1 million cap on total damages, sending the measure to the Senate for refinement. The vote was 99-24 amid protests from Gov. Carlin, who opposes any cap. Other actions included teacher contract changes and a plan to let districts impose a local income tax surcharge to fund schools.

Slaughter Livestock Prices Jump Across Central Markets
At midwestern market centers prices for slaughter steers and heifers rose sharply on closing sales while western terminals posted 3.00 to 5.00 higher and eastern terminals held steady to 2.00 higher. Demand remained strong for live cattle with packers needing nearby requirements as carcass values advanced in the live trade. Cattle inventories stayed firm through Thursday and hogs showed softer trade with slight declines in barrow and gilt prices, while sheep lambs saw modest reductions at terminals.
