SPAGHETTI DINNER Sunday, April 30, American Legion Serving 11:00 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sponsored by McHenry Kiwanis Club for benefit of MENTAL HEALTH CENTER bers of both the Illinois House of Representatives and the State Senate, the proposition will be submitted to the voters at the regular election in November, 1962. Qualifications of voters (with certain limitations) ave regulated by the states. So far. only two states (Georgia and Kentucky) have granted voting rights to 18-year-olders, but the legislature^ of several otfler states are also considering similar propositions, at tfc present time. The most popular argument in favor of 19-year-old voters is that "If they're old enough to fight, they're old enough to vote". Of course, it doesn't net* essarily follow that a ycuAg and pliable youth possessing the reckless courage so desirable in a soldier would have the maturity and stability seek in a qualified voter. Also; it might be argued, "They'ce not old enough to fight, either". Parents, teachers and othecs who have frequent contact with our young men and wom-t en between 19 and 21 will confirm that many of them atti better informed on political is-* sues and candidates than their elders. This is a rational argument in favor of reducing the voting age. In fact, the ultimate decision as to whether the right to vote is to be a*» corded to our youth of lfj should be controlled by the au-i swer to this question: "Do % majority of the young men arifl women at 19 possess the information and sound judgment to entitle them to vote?" Unfortunately, only the now qualified voters (those 21 year* of age and older) will be peiw mitted to decide this questioi}.. And many of them will not be too well informed on whether our younger citizens have the knowledge and judgment pc#^ sessed by the present elector rate. However, the writer ha& been impressed , by the number of young men and women. agQf 19 and 20, who themselves fed that they are not yet "ready" to vote. r" The measure is not withotif Its political implications. Quits qbvioqsly, many of the loudest proponents am simply appealing to younger voters for votes. At the risk of such a charge^ the writer has consistent^, urged that the proposition should be submitted to popi£-i lar referendum. Then, the pe^ pie can decide the issue. ^ ' COMPUTER WORKS BEHIND SCENE TO HELP TAXPAYERS WANTED TO- BUY 2 Fire side chairs regardless of condition.

Checks are now being mailed, within six weeks after date ot filing, according to H. Lynn Cavin, officer in charge of the Chicago Disbursing Office ag| the U. S. Treasury Department Describing the new compu|| er system as "the world's largos est check-writing machine^ Mr. Cavin said "that by mi«f~ 1961, the equipment will Upturning out three million veterans and social security benefit checks a month. Eventually it will prepare 9 to 10 million checks, disbursing in excess of $1 billion each month."* The computer has made it possible for the Chicago disbursing office, largest in the Treasury department, to effectively follow through on recent orders to speed-up payment of refund checks to taxpayers and veterans. Mr. Cavin said that "last December the department Installed an IBM 7070 electronic computer which is turning Out from 100,000 to 200,0'X) refund checks a day which is far from' the machine's capacity. We set our record in March by lssuil^gf more than 650,000 checks in a twenty-four hour period." ; . The Chicago disbursement office will handle about 12 mil-; lion of the over 40 million income tax refunds claimed by: the nation's taxpayers. Authorizations for the refunds a*®«" si>nt to the Chicago office on magnetic tape where they a*e p rocessed through the electronic computer. , ;. Last year, using conventional equipment, Mr. Cavin rer ported that up until June, his office printed some 400.0091/ checks, mainly for Chicago taxpayers. "This year we expect to complete the processing and mailing of 11 million checks by mid-May. reducing the time b?r, tween filing and receipt erf fund by w much as thirty days." i
