Dairy Promotion In The Spotlight For Many Farmers Dairy promotion is in the spotlight for many farmers in McHenry county, and a great many other citizens are joining them in the effort to call at­ tention to this healthful, vital product of McHenry county. The McHenry County Dairy Promotion council is coor­ dinating efforts of the con­ sumer, producer, retailer, wholesaler--just about everyone who's touched by milk or milk products. Right now two things are in the forefront, says John Pfingsten,president. Pfingsten, Ridgefield dairy farmer, says additional candidates for the McHenry County Dairy Princess title are welcome. This contest will be held in conjunction with the annual dairy banquet. That's the second thing Pfingsten wants to talk about. Legislation Would Bar Some State Job Doles State Senator Jack Schaffer (R-Cary) has introduced legislation to bar state officials from doling out state jobs to their relatives. The bill simply states that no state officer may employ any of his relatives in the office or agency in which he serves, and that no state funds may be used to pay a person employed in violation of the law. State officers covered by the measure would include any person in any branch of the government who is authorized to employ people paid with state funds. Relatives defined in the bill are spouses, parents, grandparents, children, grandchildren, sisters, brothers, uncles, aunts, neices, nephews, first cousins, brothers-in-law and daughters- in-law. Senator Schaffer's in­ troduction of the bill came on the heels of the much publicized hiring of Gov. Daniel Walker's son-in-law as a $12,558 a year tourism supervisor in Southern Illinois. The son-in-law, David H. Vaught, who served Walker as a campaign coordinator, had been unemployed since his January wedding to the governor's daughter, Kathleen. Vaught's sister, Donna, was hired a short time later as an $11,500 a year assistant for legislative liaison in the Department of Mental Health. Schaffer said the bill would require officials in the executive and judicial bran­ ches of government to abide by the same rules that have governed legislative hiring for many years. The criminal is a criminal whether he's rich or poor, and regardless of what soci­ ety failed to do for him when he was young. This big event will be held Wednesday night, June 20, at the Harvard Moose, starting at 7:29 p.m. Barbara Rich, reigding Dairy Princess, will crown\her successor. With farm products and food prices much in the limelight, this gathering will give farmers a chance to discuss those two items and to plan ways to get information to the consumer in a meaningful exchange. So far, the food price matter has been mostly an emotional issue, causing harm to all and pitting consumer vs. farmer rather than attaining a common goal: Top nutritional availability at the most effective price possible. A bill to restore power to the people has been introduced by State Rep. Cal Skinner, Jr. (R- Crystal Lake). "The bill will restore budget making and other powers to those voters who choose to attend annual township meetings," according to its chief sponsor. "About three years ago or­ dinary citizens asserted themselves in many townships throughout Illinois. The township officials who had their personal wishes overridden by the township electors, reacted by supporting a movement to take virtually all power from the people who had 'gotten out of line' " Skinner explained. "Since then, townships throughout Illinois have received massive infusions of revenue sharing funds, "I think the people should have a direct say in how this money is spent. "I also think township government would be strengthened by returning to the grass roots' system of direct democracy that is traditional in township government in the United States," Skinner said. "It's time to return to the practice of allowing ordinary voters to be 'Senators for a Day.' " The bill is co-sponsored by a bi-partisan group of legislators. Various animals can see behind them, as well as in front- 'including the hare, horse, giraffe, and manyfish.
