"Seems like the gods at city hall made a mistake on the DENNIS CONWAY PUBLIC PULSE (The Plaindealer invites the public to use this col­ umn as an expression of their views on subjects of general interest in our community.

FRIEND OR FOE? "Editor: "On Aug. 16, a very in­ teresting and shocking report was presented to the Republican platform com­ mittee by Professor Anthony C. Sutton, research fellow with the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace. For many years Professor Sutton has researched Soviet Technology, written three volumes on Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development, and the following is his shattering conclusion: There is no such thing as Soviet technology. *Almost all, perhaps 90 to 95 percent • came directly or in­ directly from the United States and its allies. In effect, the United States and the NATO countries have built the Soviet Union - its industrial and its military capabilities. This massive construction job has taken fifty years. Since the Revolution in 1917, it has been carried out through trade and the sale of plants, equipment and technical assistance. "The next two paragraphs are the professor's own words: " 'Our fifty years of dealings with the Soviets have been an economic success for the USSR and a political failure for the United States. It has not stopped war; it has not given us peace. The United States is spending $80 billion a year on defense against an enemy built by the United States and West Europe. Even stranger, the U.S. ap­ parently wants to make sure this enemy remains in the business of being an enemy! (Emphasis added) (for­ mer ) Ambassador Harriman has been prominent in Soviet trade since the 1930's and is an outspoken supporter of yet more trade. This is what Am­ bassador Harriman reported back to the State department at the end of World War II: Stalin paid tribute to the assistance rendered by the United States to Soviet industry before and during the War. He said that about two-thirds of all the large industrial enterprises in the Soviet Union had been built with the United States' help or technical assistance." .... "So let's take a look at the Soviet industry that provides the parts and the materials for Soviet armaments: the guns, tanks aircraft. "The Soviets have the largest iron and steel plant in the world. It was built by our McKee corporation. It is a copy of the U.S. Steel plant in Gary, In­ diana ... The Soviets use open hearths, American electric furnaces, American wide strip mills, Sendzimir mills, and so on - all developed in the West and shipped in as peaceful trade." "The professor outlined more factories and industries in Russia which were provided either entirely or in part by the United States industries which enable Russia to run weapons and other war material into Haiphong harbor. I don't need to tell you which side is getting these weapons, and whose soldiers are getting killed as a result! "Professor Sutton's lengthy and detailed report cannot possibly be reprinted here, but it might be interesting for you readers to know that a copy of this report was given to the United Press and also to the Associated Press. To date there has been little or no publicity on the shocking facts contained in this report! Efforts of this and previous administrations to hush up the facts have been rampant, but it is American lives which pay the price for this callous subsidizing of the enemy! It is high time that Americans learned just who is calling the tune that he is dancing to-and dying to! "Sincerely, "Margaret Fallon "2706 N. Iroquois Trail "McHenry sewer assessment at 4505 W. Route 120 with a low assessment of $745.45 and not 1893.74 as the other home owners. Now if the lots in Lakeland Shore, south of Highway 120, are 80 feet and being assessed at 8883.74 and all the 60 foot lots in Lakeland Park are also being assessed at the same charge of 8883.74, then, (me or the other is paying too much or toof little. "I visited with Alderman Joe Stanek of Ward 2 which consists of the 80' lots in Lakeland Shores and he tells me its a fair assessment of $883.74.1 take it then that it's an unfair assessment on the 60 foot lots not in his ward also at 8883.74. The 80 foot lots are 25 percent larger and with Alderman Stanek's fair assessment of $893.74 for the 80 foot lotsjnfiis ward, then the 60 foot lots should be charged 25 percent less which comes to $248.44, or the assessment for the 60 foot lot should be only $747.30. "Alderman Frank Hromec of Ward Four, where the 60 foot lots are, states that $883.74 is a fair assessment. If the 80 foot lots in Lakeland Shores, Alderman Stanek's Ward, are one-third larger than the 60 foot lots in Alderman Hromec's Ward, and it is Alderman Hromec's opinion of $993.74 being a fair assessment, then the 80 foot lots in Alderman Stanek's Ward should be one- third more in assessments or $331.25 plus $883.74 for a total of $1,324.99* "Mayor Doherty tells me he thinks this is all fair to charge a unit fee for each home, even though I say it is outright discrimination. But for still some more major facts on discrimination, againthegodsat city hall are assessing some property owners on the front footage and other property owners, whether it is a 60' or 80 foot lot, a unit charge or assessment. So the proof is in the pudding that the City of McHenry in discriminating in charging or assessing two different ways. These are only a few of the discriminations in the sewer assessments. "Wilbert Hecht" "McHenry" Candy Day Funds Give Aid To Blind Emergency eye surgery, funds to start a news stand, training with a leader dog, clothes, jobs, rent, a scholar­ ship, even a white cane are what Candy Day is all about. When 28,000 Illinois Lions man the street corners Friday, Oct. 6th, seeking to raise a record $850,000 it will be to help the blind and visually han­ dicapped open wider their window to the world. This year's campaign will be the twentieth year Illinois Lions have conducted Candy Day. An idea of a Chicagoland Lion, it has spread state-wide and is now functioning nationwide in eighteen states. In Illinois, more than $6,500,000 has been collected and distributed to agencies and organizations serving the blind and visually handicapped. Nearly every working day a request for help comes into the Illinois Lions Blind Ac­ tivities headquarters, 1515 North Harlem Avenue, Oak Park. "No request goes unan­ swered", said A. G. "Ang" Marcheschi, Niles, State Candy Day chairman. "Calls come from the inner cities, suburbs and rural areas. "Requests range from that simple white cane to admission to a home for the aged. All have the urgency and fear of someone facing blindness or failing eyesight. It's a challenge we meet", Marcheschi said. Candy Day underwrites more than the dramatic cases of corneal transplants, the quick flights and emergency surgery of a child with an eye tumor - it works to preserve and conserve vision. REMEMBER WHEN? When we run one of our old "Remember When?" pictures, and some of the information is missing, someone is almost sure to have the answer. This week it was an old picture post card of a scene on the Fox River. The year was not available on the card and the place was not designated. Mr. and Mrs. George J. Freund have identified the house as their own, located at 1507 N. Riverside drive. The year the picture was taken was 1909. The Freunds said they believe there were only two houses on the street at that time. The other was the Nick Barbian home, The Freund home was then own­ ed by Willaim Bishop. THE HARD WAY . . . San shlro Miyamoto of Detroit, wants to be a policeman so badly that he has his wife, Ann, hit him over the head with a 2-by-4 to raise bumps so he can meet the height re­ quirements. An American of Japanese ancestry, Miyamoto owns a successful tool and die business but has wanted to be a policeman aU of his Ufe. He sleeps in traction and hopes to gain another half inch to meet the 5-foot-7 minimum standard. Listen!
