Kansas House Panel Backs Abortion Bill in Line With Court
The Public Health and Welfare Committee approved a Senate-passed abortion bill to align Kansas law with a Supreme Court ruling. It would allow abortions on demand in the first week, and up to 14 weeks in a licensed hospital, with other provisions and potential employer restrictions to be discussed. Other panels heard energy and tax bills, including criticism of federal oil policies and a study of heavy oil recovery in southeast Kansas. The Ways and Means Committee also backed a $205 million state agency appropriations bill with minor amendments.

Wichita Chamber vs Legislator sparks anger over misstatements
Kansas Senate Local Government Chair Sen. Elwaine Pomeroy condemned Wichita Chamber of Commerce claims in its State Legislative Notes, bars it from committee hearings until an apology, and debates a city purchasing bill that would let municipalities use the state Purchasing Division. The bill failed 18 to 21 as some senators feared local vendors would be bypassed. Pomeroy insists the measure would merely require discounts from state contracts to apply to cities. Quebec poultry census notes 23.6 million chickens in June 1972, up 2.8 percent.
