NATIVITY'S CRAFT FAIR The Nativity Lutheran Church Women (LC'W) are working hard at making all kinds of 'goodies' for their craft fair to be held Saturday, Nov. 22, starting at 9 a.m. till ??? I hey need any items made in­ cluding baked goods and canned (home) goods which you would McClory Reports From Washington I . s r* tnp* IT- it * * ti The population explosion, coupled with the development of new techniques for explor­ ing the ocean floor, have com­ bined to stimulate interest in the fantastic mineral wealth lying beneath the vast oceans. • Offshore wells already supply * a fifth of the world's oil and gas, and it is estimated that the oil industry will invest more than $25 billion in offshore ex­ ploration during the next 10 years. Deposits of sulfur, phos­ phorite and manganese also knave been found and await de- ¥ velopment. However, anticipa- * tion of these discoveries has - brought an ominous extension of ^ claims of national sovereignty. ; Until recently, national • jurisdiction extended princi- l pally to submerged lands and J their resources lying within the | so-called 3-mile limit. Less « complete jurisdiction also was recognized over offshore ter- ; ritory beyond the 3-mile limit • described as the continental ^ shelf. This covered the offshore ocean floor up to a depth of 200 meters. Other nations now claim greater jurisdiction over their offshore lands. Some South American nations, for example, claim up to a distance of 200 miles from their shore line. I nited States statutes estab­ lishing the scope and limita­ tions of both federal and state jurisdiction over Submerged Lands and Outer Continental Shelf Lands have been enacted following recommendations of the House Judiciary Committee, upon which this MemberofCon- gress serves. However, uncer­ tainties relating to State and Federal responsibility raise doubts as to the sufficiency of our national laws. In addition, absence of uniformity in na­ tional policies among the na­ tions of the world indicate a startling inadequacy of interna­ tional treaties governing the o- cean floor. Until recently, the principal interest in submerged lands re­ lated to the oil resources avail­ able within the continental shelf. Lnder the Submerged Lands \ct, the states retained jur­ isdiction of the submerged lands within the continental shelf ex­ tending to a distance of 3 miles of their respective shores, l nder the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act the Federal government assumed juris­ diction over all submerged lands beyond the 3-mile limit. W ith advanced techniques and equipment now capable of ex­ ploring and exploiting re­ sources on the ocean floor far below the 200 meter depth cov­ ered by the present definition of the continental shelf, it is expected that both new Feder­ al legislation and revised in­ ternational agreements will be needed. Private interest seek­ ing to develop resources be­ neath the sea are hesitant to like to donate. They are also asking for help in setting up the fair on Friday, Nov. 21. Any help and/or donations will be greatly appreciated. Most of these items are going to be gift ideas for Christinas so come see our handiwork!!! Have you had your picture taken yet??? Remember the pic­ tures are open to the commun­ ity as well as members. Check with Jme Kiddell, 653-9383, for information on pictures and to volunteer your 'goodies' and help for the craft fair.

NOV.J1,1969 FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Nov. 14, 1929) Mrs. John Schaid was the victim of a surprise birthday party when several relatives and friends invaded her home on Green street. The party was planned by her daughter, Miss Rena Schaid, and she received many beautiful gifts to com­ memorate the occasion. Several of the local Boy Scouts with the Scoutmaster, Mr. Schoenholtz, enjoyed an over night hike to the woods at Sherman hill. It was pret­ ty cold and some of the pro­ visions were found to be fro­ zen in the morning. The boys all had a great time. The hunting season, which opened on Sunday, Nov. 10, claimed its first victim of the season on that day when Hu­ bert Miller, 40 years old, of Chicago was fatally injured when a gun fell from the hands of his nephew, Earl Kunzman, the charge entering his back. He died at the Woodstock hos­ pital. Elmer Schmalfeldt, local ice­ man, had a lucky escape from serious injury when his ice truck was rim into by a large poultry truck from Leland, Wis., both trucks were dam­ aged but the ice truck suffered the most.

The feathery mat­ erial which will be used in the famous "Mae Wests" that our fighting men wear while over water could save the lives of a whole shipload of soldiers or sailors. Milkweed floss, which these pods produce, Is being used in the place of capok, which we have not been able to get from its native growing place, the Pacific Islands.

These subjects will be treated from a practical point of view by Dr. H.S. King, Ph.D. chief chem­ ist at the Ringwood plant. For outstanding achievement in safeguarding its vital gas and electric services, the Western United Gas and Electric com­ pany has been selected by the National Board of Review of the office of civilian defense to receive the national security award. The company which ser­ ves gas and electricity to ap­ proximately 400 war plants, 2,300 farms and sixty-five com­ munities in the Fox River val­ ley area, is among the first in this part of the country to re­ ceive the National security award.

So far, the only agree­ ment which has been reached is the draft convention between the United States and the So­ viet Union prohibiting emplace­ ment of nuclear arms and oth­ er weapons of mass destruction on the ocean floor outside each nation's territorial limit. Hearings presently pro­ ceeding before Senate and House Committees are mostly explor­ atory in nature looking toward appropriate Federal manage­ ment of the submerged Lands and the sea itself along our nation's shore line. As to the legal rights of the Federal gov­ ernment and the respective states, as well as the legal authority of individuals in their dealings with the state and fed­ eral governments, the House Ju­ diciary Committee will be re­ quired to act. House Resolution 93, adopted earlier this session, authorizes the House Judiciary Committee "to conduct full and complete investigations and studies re­ lating to the operation and ad­ ministration of the Submerged I.and Act and the Outer Con­ tinental Shelf Lands Act."

MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS Administrator Ward Duel of the County Health department spoke at the monthly meeting of the realtors and worked with a special committee of realtors in order to Improve and sim­ plify the FHA program. A thor­ ough study was made of the Sul­ livan Lake projects' impact upon the future health of the citizens of McHenry county. A comprehensive report was for­ warded to the Lake county zon­ ing board of appeals. Super­ visor Dean of McHenry town­ ship advised that he met with them and they concurred In the suggestions that were made to them and have delayed granting the zoning in order that the pet­ itioner may have time to pre­ pare a better proposal. The administrator attended the Illinois State Boards of Health meeting and the meet­ ing of Medical Health Officers which were held in Springfield on succeeding days. A special report on matters of import­ ance to McHenry county which came out of these meetings, i% being prepared. The adminis­ trator continues to participate in the area-wide comprehensive health planning activities in the county. He has been elected secretary of this group. The department continues to receive requests for assistance from schools. This month the administrator of a school which did not have a school nurse was advised as to the significance, the communicability and the state regulations concerning scarlet fever, which was oc­ curring in his school. Another school had lice and at the sug­ gestion of the school, Mr. Duel spoke to some of the mothers. A third school had a sanitation problem related to communi­ cable disease resulting from the sharing of gym equipment. Two villages. Fox River Grove and Huntley, have now been added to the list of co­ operating communities and the food inspections are completed in these two areas. At the request of the city of Marengo, the administrator re­ quired the Northwestern rail­ road to make provisions for disposal of the sewage which was originating from a work train which was parked within the city limits. A satisfactory arrangement was worked out and the railroad used the same procedure when they moved their work train to Huntley. • * Two court cases were car­ ried over from last months In one case, the-Building tiepart- ment put a stop work order on the job which the man was do­ ing in order to eliminate the pollution problem. This order resulted from an oversight on the part of an engineer who had drawn the plans. The permit had been given and the work was under way at the time the stop order was given. The owner and operator of a county nursing home appeared for an office conference. As a result of this conference, the department learned that the owner thought the necessary en­ gineering to eliminate the pol­ lution problem occurring from her home was under way. How­ ever, on checking it was found that the state had made an ar­ chitectural review and approval and had overlooked the sewage disposal problem. It appears that the person in Springfield doing the review was not fam­ iliar with the site. Normally county health departments are involved in nursing home pro­ jects of this type. There were 119 water tests in October. This unusual number of water tests resulted from the fact that the re is a third sanitarian working and the department was able to take care of a number of pol­ lution problems and sample the water supplies of a number of food service establishments which are on private wells and had never been sampled. 55 Chairmen At State U of I Annual Meeting Mrs. James Cooney of Wood­ stock joined fifty-five other county chairmen of the Uni­ versity of Illinois Mother's as­ sociation for the annual con­ ference at Allerton house near Monticello, 111., Nov. 14 and 15.
