Enactment of the Monday Holiday Bill, of which this member of Congress was the principal sponsor, means that residents of the District of Columbia and Federal employees will enjoy four long weekends beginning in 1971. As passed by Congress and approved by the President the Bill provides for the observance of Washington's birthday on the third Monday in February, Memorial Day on the last Monday in May, Columbus Day on the second Monday <in October and Veterans Day on the fourth Monday in October. While this new legislation is limited to the subjects of which the Federal government has jurisdiction, it is expected that most of the 50 states will follow the federaljgattern. McCLORY REPORTS From Washington State Senator Egbert Groen of Pekin has introduced several measures in the Illinois General Assembly which would make the new Monday Holiday legislation effective throughout our State of Illinois. Similar legislative measures have been presented in New York, New Jersey, Hawaii, Kentucky and other states. In the August issue of Illinois Banker -- the official publication of the Illinois Bankers association -- it is pointed out that the new federal legislation "could result in some savings iii the operation" of commercial banks. The Illinois Banker comments further that "Supporters of the Monday Holiday Bill assert that Monday Holiday legislation will increase employee production and reduce employee absenteeism and will eliminate the close-down and start-up cost connected with mid-week holidays.'" similar savings are expected in the entire business and industrial community, provided that the federal law gains substantial uniformity throughout the state. Ita order to encourage the State legislatures to act before the effective date of Jan 1, 1971, this member of Congress has communicated with the legislatures of all fifty states urging prompt enactment of complementary state laws. _ All but three state legislatures have regular sessions in 1969. The others (Kentucky, Mississippi and Virginia) will meet early in 1970. It is the hope of the sponsors of the Federal Monday Holiday Act (P.L. 90- 368) that all of the states will pass legislative in order that the benefits of this Act may be felt nationwide. The United States Chamber of Commerce is active in promoting such state legislation during 1969 and early 1970. Calendar manufacturers need time for producing the 1971 calendars to reflect the passage of the Uniform Monday Holiday Act. Schools and various business and civic organizations can utilize the interim period HOLIDAY LIQUORS MCHENRY'S FOREMOST I i I also for adjusting to the new holiday schedule. The broad benefits and effects of this unique legislation have not yet been fully explored. Exciting, worthwhile and rewarding long weekend holidays await the American public in 1971. It is hoped that the federal example will be adopted by all fifty states -- to the end that the laudable objectives of the Monday Holiday Act may be enjoyed by £ll Americans. SCIENCE CHAIRMAN?
