Things that make your life easier and better? Would you like doing without refrigerators. vacuums or modern plumbing? Could you do without telephones or typewriters, Of course not. you say. But that's how you'd live if ycta farmed, kept house or ran a business the way it was. done when the Illinois constitution was drawn up in 1870. Eighty years have seen many changes in the way we live, but Illinois maintains the same antiqnated system of government, and no ready means of changing the law. It is out of date and inapplicable to the times. Some parts of the constitution are being violated outright, to maintain a balanced legislature. If the letter of the law were followed. Cook county would dominate both Senate and House completely. Wouldn't it be better to adapt the law to changing times? Well, we can't until the Gateway Amendment passes. Some parts of the constitution retain in Springfield so much control over each city and county that the legislators were recently asked to decide whether peanuts could be sold on Navy Pier in Chicago. Do you want your state senator or representative bothered with such trivial local matters, when someone directly connected could decide much more easily? The present constitution forbids It! The Judiciary article is so out of date that one of the state's sev en judicial districts (the 7th) is so populous that it furnishes 60 percent of the cases in the Supreme Court, but supplies only one justice to sit on the bench. And the court's time is consumed by certain types of cases no Iqnger so important, and urgent litigation must wait. , It isn't good for a democratic government to block all reasonable possibility for a change. The able Gateway will remove the unsurmountable barrier to constitutional change that we have at present By opening this gate for future amendments, by voting "Yes" on the "Blue Ballot" amendment on Nov. 7, you can help Illinois to a better government, one that will keep pace with the times. You may personally favor one change or another. You may think that the proposed changes would mean an income tax, or higher taxes. The Gateway has nothing to do with revenue, or home rule, or approtionment at all. Under its provisions, amending the constitution will change from an impossible task to a difficult one. And you can see that ^the constitution does need amending! This is one of a series of articles prepared by the League of Women Voters erplaining the Gateway Amendment. Motor Scooters Killed Sixty-Five In 1948 Motor scooter accidents in cities killed about eixty-flve persons and injured 5,000 in 1948. That is an estimate based on a sample of 78 cities of more than 10,000 population published in the 1950 edition of "Accident Facts", the National Safety Council's statistical annual. More than half the injured riders were 15 to 19 years of age, ahd only 5 per cent were women. AUTO ACCIDENTS A study of 12,676 auto acldents made by the st!^ie^i)ivl^ott * of Highways shows that on .Illinois roads outside cities ji majority of the crashes during the first half of 1950 , took place during weekends, when thft weathfS*, was dry, between 4 andT 5 o'docl, in,i the afternoon, with" drivers going at excessive speed. Other leading causes of accidents Were confused drivers and those on the wrong side of the road. The analysis says 422 of the accidents studied, involved drinking drivers. The sweet potato is cdbslStered the national food of the Ryukyu islands, now occupied by American military forces based on Okinawa.
