Wheat storage crunch looms for Kansas growers
Farmers face a tight storage squeeze as Kansas elevators fill up with wheat. Terminal facilities are near capacity due to a 40 percent drop in exports and weak prices, forcing cash only shipments and possible forced sales at harvest. Officials warn space may run out especially in western Kansas, potentially altering loan plans and storage strategies.

Tax Overhaul Winners and Losers Highlighted by Senate
Washington AP reports that under a proposed tax overhaul four example families show mixed outcomes with a $1125 cut for a four-member family at typical deductions, while a $75,000 two-earner couple would pay about $2200 more. The plan, approved by the Senate Finance Committee, could shift benefits toward lower and middle income groups, but high earners may lose due to removal of several deductions.

Kansas Governor Signs Bills Affecting Education and Taxpayer Uses
The governor's package requires school officials to inform the welfare agency about truancy cases involving children under 12 and to notify parents by registered mail. It authorizes a 4.3 million dollar University of Kansas Medical Center animal care and research center funded by a 20 year loan from the pooled money board. It changes water protection authority for petroleum pollution to the Kansas Corporation Commission with cleanup under the health agency. Banks may amortize bad loans over five years if needed to protect capital. 60 banks plan to apply. About 80 million in state and total spending for 1987 funds include options to buy Charles Curtis’s Topeka home.
