0 i fG. 8, - PLAINDEALER - WED., MAY 22, 1968 Guest Editorial from Dixon Evening Telegraph Let's Stop Wrangling We arc getting sick and tired of what a paltry few persons in the Republican Party are trying to do to stir up trouble between the candidates for the gubernatorial nomination and against Richartl Ogilvie, the top favorite in the race. Audrey Peake, National Committee Woman for Illinois. to our way of thinking is one of the top offenders. We deplore her most recent action in coming out publicly for one of the contenders for Governor -- John Altorfer. She has been campaigning for Altorfcr since last fall and all the time on the payroll of the Central Committee. We would deplore her action if she came out for the candidate we are backing. Richard Ogilvie, or any other one for that matter. It would have been better if Mrs. Peake had devoted more time to obtaining good accommodations for the Illinois delegation instead of campaigning for her candidate. The Illinois delegations are to be at the Marco Polo Hotel not too far from Fort Lauderdale -- as the crow flies. We think that it would be highly irregular for any of our top appointed persons in high places to come out for any candidate for any office. They should stay aloof and represent all Republicans and we mean this from the bottom of our heart. •* If there is any way for her to be removed from her office as National Committee Woman it should be done or she should voluntarily resign. This is the second time she helped to cause disunity. In 1964 she worked hard for Mr. Percy against Bill Scott. It is reliably reported she and Virginia Kenney, President of the Illinois Republican Women's Club, worked behind the scenes to eliminate Illinois' own Phyllis Schlafly of Alton from being moved up from First Vice President to President of the National Women's Republican Club. Mrs. Peake has been employed at a salary of $7,200 a year as "Field Representative" for the State Central Committee, plus expenses, we are informed, for trips to Washington and Springfield. We have been unable to get a breakdown on her expenses. We think the State Central Committee should be given an accounting on the expense account as a matter of good business. We are proud that Robert Stuart, our National Committeeman and Victor Smith. Chairman of the State Central Committee have not and will not and should not commit themselves for any candidate. For party unity St is imperative that those in the top jobs should be for all Republicans and work accordingly. Mrs. Peake's attack on Richard Ogilvie is the farthest from the truth. She says there are 17,000 jobs to be lost if Ogilvie gives up the Presidency of the County Board. The truth is that most of the jobs were under civil service when Mr. Ogilvie took office. The truth is there were 12,000 jobs on which 6,000 were special status, also another 2,500 are doctors, etc., leaving 3,500 and 100 per cent of these will be civil service by the time Mr. Ogilvie gives up the post. Richard Ogilvie has said that he isn't running for office for patronage. He is running for office for the people -- the taxpayers who elect him. It is more important for Richard Ogilvie to help elect a Republican State's Attorney, Circuit Clerk, and Coroner and Sanitary District Trustees, which is the second largest municipal corporation in the state. It is more important that Richard Ogilvie run for Governor because he will carry in Senator Dirksen and all of the state offices along with himself. Robert E.

Be sure you have the proper coverage on your car or your vacation trip may turn out to be an expensive and unhappy one. Most domestic automobile policies apply while the automobile is within the United States of America, its territories or possessions or Canada, but there is no coverage under either of these policies in Mexico. One insurance company strongly recommends, "Don't drive in Mexico without liability insurance in a Mexican insurance company". This may be purchased at the border. Motorists who have not purchased insurance from a Mexican company may be placed in jail following an accident and have their cars impounded until they can prove they can pay for damage s„ Coverage can usually be written at the border or from a legally authorized surplus lines broker in advance of the trip. Such coverage can be written on a very short term blasis, just long enough to cover the duration of the trip. , / Any American planning to drive in Mexico should carry proof of ownership of the car he drives and a valid driver's licensee A tourist card should also be obtained from an office of the Mexican Bureau of Tourism, the Mexican consul or at the border. Possession of a birth certificate expedites the issuance of this card. Free Press Guarantee A by-product of advertising is free and independent press» Not even in the United States, in spite of constitutional guarantees, did a free and fair press exist until advertising freed publishers from highly partisan Supporters and select interests.. From the time of the American revolution until approximately 1830, American journalism was represented by small* highly biased political sheets. However, when expanding business firms recognized the need for reaching a new public through advertising, i publishers found & neutral and varigated source of support which made them independent. Indeed, advertising made it imperative that the newspaper should think in terms of serving the whole public, rather than venting wildly for special political projects. Advertisers could not wisely support publications which failed to attain wide public acceptance. Today, perhaps even more significantly than at any time in history, newspaper advertising is the best support and guarantee of a free presso As* government has become more complex, as law and rule by bureaus and agencies have burgeone<J, there is more than ever a need for a pl-ess free from control of political interests. Such a press exists only wher£ advertising support has made it possible for a publication to serve the whole public without fear or favor,, Prepare For Vacation Golf pros taking part in a match at a mile-high course in Colorado complained of feeling "tired" and "listless". Gurkha troops manning the Indian border in the Himalayas have been knocked out of commission by an invisible foe. Both groups experienced in different degree some effects of high altitude sickness-caused by the oxygen-poor air at higher levels. If conditioned athletes and soldiers responded in that fashion to a changed climate, what are the portents for heart patients planning vacations at altitudes where their hearts would suddenly be asked to work harder to provide sufficient oxygen in an unaccustomed atmosphere? It has been found that most heart patients can travel safely to high altitudes if simple precautions are taken to minimize the effects of sudden change. Your doctor is the best judge whether you can go, so visit him before completing plans. It would be desirable for heart patients accustomed to living at sea-level, who have medical approval to vacation in altitudes to 7,000 feet or above, to make the ascent gradually. Over a period of several days, the body would adjust to the "thinner air". But today's jets zip across borders and even continents in a few tours, whisking people from flat country to sky-high climates. SThe fast change can cause high altitude sickness. Symptoms inctudedrowsiness, headache, blueness of nails, lips, nose or ears; a feeling of warmih and flushing of the face; poor sleep, poor appetite and even dizziness. The plane ride itself should pose no problem, since passenger cabins are pressurized to meet'^tiig a It itude oxygen needs. ^ Your Heart association does suggest you get a good night's sleep and eat a light breakfast before the trip. During the flight, go easy on food and skip alcoholic beverages. On arrival in the high-altitude areas, get some bed rest - if possibleand take it eatsy, especially in the first 24 hours. If you begin to feel uncomfortable, be sure to seek medical help.

BOUQUETS TO KIWANIS "Dear Editor: "We recently attended an award presentation dinner honoring the top twenty-five students in the McHenry Junior high school. This event was presented by the Kiwanis club. Judging from the good felbwship displayed and the wonderful program given by m?mbers in attendance that evening, they undoubtedly have one of the finest organizations in the area. "We were especially grateful with the thought they were projecting to these students, i.e., to demonstrate to them that adults were recognizing their hard work and to give them an £xtra boost perhaps toward high School. > - "With such dignitaries as Dr. Carl Bergstrom, James Spencer, Miss Curran, John Flint and Pastor D. Johnson from Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church present, they certainly put the idea across. "Mr. and Mrs. Art Matthies "614 N. Hill road "McHenry." PATROL FROM EDGEBROOK IN SKATING PARTY Members of the Edgebrook school patrol enjoyed a roller skating party at the McHenry roller rink on Thursday, May 16, from 3:30 to 5 p.m. This party, sponsored by the school was to show appreciation for the cooperation and assistance rendered by all members. Mrs. Stella Rortvet, patrol supervisor, was assisted at the rink by Mrs. Eloise Leighty and Mrs. Mary Vycital. Patrol awards and pins will be presented to the patrol members later this month. by larry e. lund • • • • • Of major importance today to legislators, law enforcement personnel, and the average person on the street is gun control. This subject has June from an item of little importance to one of hot and heated discussion since the rifle assassination of John F. Kennedy. Since that time, there have been numerous and horrible crimes committed which have received considerably publicity. Among these were the "tower sniper" at the University of Texas, the killingof Martin Luther King, as well as many others. Contrary to many reports and rumors, the National Rifle association is not against gun control legislation - good gun control legislation. It seems quite obvious that the time has come for proper legislation in this field. But we must also agree with the NRA that these regulations should be a deterrent to the criminal and not hurt the person who owns and uses a gun for strictly sporting uses. source, a firearms bill the following things: 1) known criminal from rea firearm, 2) prevent a minor from either receiving or purchasing a firearm under an assumed name and without a parent's consent 3) punish the person who loans, sells or gives a firearm to a minor or a criminal, 4) protect a person from selling a firearm to a known criminal or minor, 5) be able to be enforced without costing the taxpayer or fire- According to one should attempt to do restrict or prevent a ceiving or purchasing arms owner any money, 6) be able to be . enforced without placing an impossible situation on the law enforcement agencies, 7) help put teeth into some of the existing local laws not in effect, 8) be able to go into effect witlin a short period without a good deal of red tape and confusion, and 9) satisfy the present honest owners of firearms. During the past week, a proposal has come across our desk that could well accomplish most or all of the above items. We are told that the following idea has been looked at by law enforcement officials, JUI agents, and NRA members, as well as many other interested persons. These people feel the proposal has much merit. This proposed bill would require all givers and sellers to ship or deliver the firearm in the name of the new owner to his or her nearest law enforcement agency. The firearm could then be picked up there with no strings attached. At the present time, United Parcel Service and Railway Express are the only shipping companies that are allowed to handle firearms. A person who has nothirig to hide can go to his law enforcement agency and pick up his unopened package. A known criminal could do the same. However, the law enforcement official would thenhavearecordofthe delivery. The enforcement of existing gun registration laws now in effect could then be checked much easier and much closer. We are not sure this law would be the answer to the problem completely. But it seems to be one of the best answers we have come across so far. T®p National Awards Illinois School Illinois recently won honors for the "top teacher" and the "best high school". President Johnson presented the 1968 national teacher of the year award to David E. Graf, a high school vocational education and industrial arts teacher in Sandwich, 111. "Mr. Graf is a very dedicated man in a very dedicated profession," acclaimed the President during the presentation ceremony in the White I|ouse cabinet room. The President also noted that Graf, 51, was the first vocational training teacher to receive the annual national award since it was instituted in 1952. "His wife, Juanita, and their daughter, Cynthia, attended the event. A jury of education experts in the May issue of Ladies' Home Journal magazine named Evanston Township high school the best in the United States„ Evanston headed a list of ten top' high schools in the nation, selected by school superintendents and educators that made up the panel.
