RIVER POLLUTION 'To Whom It May Concern": "According to the article in the Plaindealer of May 29, it appears that our river is to be further burdened by the effluence of Lake county. "I can remember when the river was clear enough to see bottom at a depth of 4 or 5 feet of water. It is now both so troubled and so soiled that one cannot see through 4 or 5 inches of the water. "Our river is now more like a long, narrow lake than a river, since the natural current has been retarded by dams. It no longer purifies itself by a steady and powerful flow. "Adding still more waste products to a river which has lost its flow makes for a polluted body of water. "It is cheaper for communities (as is presently the issue in Lake county) to dump waste products into the river than to give thought to scientific methods of disposal. "But what is easy and quick may%e short-sighted. What is to the advantage of a few people may react to the disadvantage of thousands--people who seek recreation in fishing, boating, bathing and skiing and those who apreciate the beauty, cleanness and freshness of our great river. Where is the health department? "We in McHenry have a bathing beach and you can rest assured that additional effluence isn't going to benefit our youngsters. Furthermore, it will not increase the value ol the property if we have a young drainage canal here.

Not man, but it is his desire to get rich and make money at all cost, even to his obligation to his family in enjoying a day together.

Mc- Connell. Let's give this day back to the good Lord and our families. "Yours, "Gene Piotrowski" THE POLICE PROBLEM "To Whom It May Concern:" "Sheriff Dowd's appeal to the board of supervisors to employ four more patrolmen for the Sheriff's department is extremely controversial. He states that his department is undermanned and overworked. Instead of employing more men, would it not be less of a burden on the McHenry county taxpayers--as well as an advantage to the Sheriff's department--if Dowd and Company would occasionally cooperate and utilize the services and experiences of the trained, non-partisan personnel of the Illinois State Police department? "There are fourteen state troopers residing in this county. Each has a squad car and all the necessary equipment needed in an emergency. "I am sure they are capable of handling any crime or accident as well as or better than many county officers. "Taxpayers are entitled to state services and equipment, too, so let there not be room for martyrism or politics in the protection of McHenry county citizens." "Very truly yours, "Wm. J.

"Approval to pay the unpaid balance of the bills from the Valley Hi referendum was only half of the motion that was voted on and approved. "The members of the board of supervisors that presented the Valley Hi referendum charged the taxpayers of the county with a bill of approximately twenty thousand dollars. About one tenth of this amount was unpaid. These were just bills of record and had to be paid. "The other part of this approved motion was to strike out a paragraph of the April Valley Hi committee report. This portion of the report, which was stricken, was to set a new policy of allowing only thirty residents at Valley Hi. There are about fifty persons now there. The date of this transaction was Sept. 1, 1963. Eviction was to take place on the above date if the number of residents exceeded thirty on that date. "The June meeting of the board of supervisors will hear more facts and recommendations as to the proper number of residents that should be there. Experience indicates thr: •county home operates most economically when the resident number is 45 to 50 persons. "Thank you for the use of this space to further inform the taxpayers of McHenry county.
