POSITION PAPER
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
On Saturday, July 27, 1996, in the Business Section of the
Kansas City Star the following headlines appeared on Page One.
"Kansas City Power and Light's Union shifts position."
The following statement has been prepared by the President
and the Business Manager of Local 1464 in reply to that headline
and its story content.
"It is the position of Local 1464 and it's leadership that
Mr. Nigel Peck is not now, nor has he ever been, a spokesman for
our Local."
Furthermore, from the very beginning of the merger talks our
primary concern has been job security and the opportunity to play
a significant part in the changing forces driving the business we
have been a part of for these many years. We will not shift from
this position. Our Union has not had a change of heart. We are
not in neutral. We are continuously in motion and we look
forward to the day when every one's total focus can return to the
business of running the best electric utility company in the
country.
