Two THE IEAVENWORTH TIMES, Sunday Morning, February 7, 1965. Reilly Gets An Op inion On Voting TOPEKA moving onto land under federal jurisdiction such as Army posts retain their state voting residence. But persons moving onto such enclaves from outside the state cannot acquire voting residence here, Ally. Gen. Robert Londerholm said Friday.

In a reply to state Son. Ed Reilly Londerholm sadd the Legislature lacks nuthority to authorize persons living on a federal enclave to acquire voting residence in the state. It is, he said, prohibited by the state constitution. In a second opinion, Londerholm said if a member of an employes retirement fund is killed by his designated beneficiary, payments should be withheld and put instead into the estate of the dead person. The opinion was asked by John K.

Corkhill, executive secretary of the Kansas Public Employes Retirement System. Court Says Stamps OK For Bonds TOPEMA Kansas Supreme Court ruled Friday that state merchants may legally issued trading stamps which are redeemable for United States savings bonds. The stamps had been halted by Injunction. But, in declaring the stamps legal, the court outlined for the Legislature a method to be used in banning them again if it wishes. The court ruled that redemption of trading stamps for government bonds does not conflict with a state law prohibiting redeeming stamps for goods, wares, merchandise or cash.

The Legislature can ban them, however, by prohibiting redemption with "anything of value," the court said. Former Atty. Gen. William Ferguson ruled in 1964 that it would be legal to trade stamps for government bonds. The American Stamp Co.

began such a program and established offices in Topeka, Kansas City, Wichita, Salinai, Chanute, Garden City, Hutchinson end Hays. Ferguson then reversed his position and caused a suit to be filed to halt issuance of the stamps. The Shawnee County District Court held that the stamps could be issued, and Ferguson's office appealed.

McHale of Wyandotte County said Friday the state must wait until a property settlement is made in Zimmer's divorce case to see if he has any assets left, to pay a lawyer.

Robert Hecht, Shawnee County attorney, filed a motion seeking to have the state intervene in the divorce suit and asked that some of the couple's property be set aside to Zimmer so he could 1 finance his own defense in the criminal case. Judge McHale denied that motion.

But a check found the youngster well and breathing normally. Miller then traced the sound to the living room and turned on the light. There was a snoring drunk covered with mud on the living room couch. "He was a big burly bruiser sleeping up a storm," Miller snid later. He got his rifle and called police The intruder explained to officers he was walking home from a party and became confused.

From his information, police figured he had walked about three miles before talking refuge, muddy and wet in the Miller home. Police then took the man home and reported his home looked much like the Miller residence. Miller said he was going to contact his insurance company to see if it "pays to clean drunk- damaged divans." New Man Picked For Navy Post WASHINGTON (AP) President Johnson Saturday picked Asst.
