Ucatr) Jf I Ann (402) 223-3103 LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) The Legislature decided today to let voters decide if they want a statewide lottery. Lawmakers voted 34-10 to put a proposed constitutional amendment from the General Affairs Committee, LR24CA, on the ballot in 1992. A separate ballot question will ask voters if they want part of the proceeds to compensate depositors of industrial loan and investment companies that filed bankruptcy or entered receivership after Nov.

1, 1983. That covers Commonwealth Savings Co. and State Securities Savings, both of Lincoln, and American Savings of Omaha. Under the latter question, the state would make such reimbursements until July 1, 1997. The Legislature has passed several reimbursement plans for the depositors in the past.

The most recent plan was thrown out by the state Supreme Court earlier this year. A motion today to change the measure to merge the ballot questions drew about an hour of often-heated debate. Lincoln Sen. Don Wesely said he wanted to put the ballot questions together, but Sens. Jacky Smith of Hastings and Ernie Chambers of Omaha opposed the idea.

Wesely 's idea failed on a 5-27 vote. Wesely said the depositors had asked him to make the motion to tie the issues together. Several senators referred to a letter Tuesday from two Commonwealth depositors indicating the Legislature was "using the Commonwealth issue" to win support for a lottery. "Enough is enough," said Chambers. "If the depositors are ungrateful and feel they are being used to make the lottery amendment go, they need to realize that we can always take them out altogether." Mrs.

Smith said she had prepared an amendment to the bill that would remove the Commonwealth question. The ballot issue is a companion measure to another bill, LB 849, which provides the blueprint for a statewide lottery.

(AP) The Legislature passed a hard-fought handgun control bill Wednesday that many officials see as a compromise and an alternative to possible stricter federal regulations.

Omaha Sen. Brad Ashford's LB355 won 34-11 final approval. The bill requires handgun buyers to obtain a three-year certificate from law enforcement local police or sheriff's department, would allow a person to buy one or more handguns while the certificate is valid. The idea has been the subject of years of debate. Sarah Brady, wife of former White House Press Secretary Jim Brady, visited Lincoln twice last year to lobby on Ashford's behalf.

The former White House press secretary was wounded in the March 30, 1981 attack on President Reagan. The tide turned for the bill after Ashford and Sen. Stan Schcllpepcr of Stanton reached a compromise spearheaded by Omaha Sen.
