Family Service Clinic Aids 1,593 Referrals In Year ^nmnnrTnnpu * i) Consumer Forum DuHng the fiscal year, July l, 1973, through June 30, 1974, the Family Service and Mental Health clinic received 2,004 referrals for service. The State of Illinois Department of Mental Health, Division of Information systems, reported that the clinic opened 1,593 of these referrals as active cases. According to George Mally, director, the remaining 411 referrals which did not become active were either referred to other resources for service, withdrew their applications, or did not respond to the clinic's attempt to followup with them. Malley reports that the number of referrals for the previous year were 1,514 and 1,539 for the fiscal year July, 71, through June 30,72. The sudden jump in the demands for ser­ vice in this past fiscal year over the previous two years is related to at least two factors, according to Mally. In June of 1973, an outreach office was opened in Woodstock and in July another outreach office opened in Cary. Mally states that these two events have made services more available at the local level and thus more referrals received. are In addition, the publicity surrounding the mental health referendum in March, 1974, made the public more aware of the clinic and its services. "Perhaps, too," said Mally, "people are beginning to accept the need for help more readily now when they are in a crisis situation." Despite the 32 percent in­ crease in demands for services, the Family Service and Mental Health clinic has been able to keep from having long waiting periods. Further, there was no increase in staff hours last year to help take care of the added load.

Membership in the American Legion auxiliary is limited to women who are wives, daughters; mothers, sisters and granddaughters of living veterans who are members of the American Legion, or deceased veterans who served our country in the Armed Forces during the period established for membership in the American Legion. Basically, the reason for being a member of the American Legion auxiliary is to give active support to a patriotic service organization, and to contribute to the aims and purposes of the American Legion. One of the main pur­ poses of the McHenry unit is to provide aid and comfort to the veterans in Elgin and Downey hospitals. If you are interested in becoming a member of the McHenry American Legion auxiliary, please contact Mrs. Henken, any member of the membership committee or Mrs. Roy (Lauretta) Homo, president. by Illinois Attorney General William J.Scott Usually we think of consumer complaints in connection with goods or services. "My toaster doesn't work." "The home repair kit I ordered through the mail hasn't arrived." Or, "The contractor didn't live up to his promises," Complaints like that. They're valid. But there also are other types of consumer complaints. Ones often much more difficult to r e s o l v e . S p e c i f i c a l l y , complaints about our environment. Complaints about the air we breathe, the water we use, the "quiet" we don't always have: Air, water and noise pollution. These violations of our rights to a quality environment always have been among my major concerns. And they will continue to be. Recently, the Attorney General's office took action in a major noise pollution case involving a most controversial subject: O'Hare Airport, the most frequently used commercial airport in the world. Approximately 500,000 citizens living near the airport are exposed to excessive noise caused by aircraft using O'Hare, and many find their d a y - t o - d a y e x i s t e n c e intolerable. Hundreds of these citizens have complained long and often about the jet noise. "Can't somebody do something?" they pleaded. The question for me, as Attorney General, is whether or not the LEGAL rights of citizens living in the O'Hare area are being violated by the excessive noise pollution. And I think thev are. The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 clearly states that the Federal Aviation Administration(F.A.A.)and the Civil Aeronautics Board (C.A.B.) are required to research and prepare public statements on the adverse e n v i r o n m e n t a l a n d h u m a n effects of any changes in existing procedures at O'Hare. And the public rule-making practices required of all federal agencies by the Administrative Procedure Act clearly required he F A.A. to provide for public notice and response before approving present flight paths and operating procedures at O'Hare. These are laws. And officials of the F A.A. and the C.A.B. have consistently failed to comply with them in approving a number of major changes at O'Hare that have resulted in the substantial increased use of the facility. Therefore, since the F.A.A. and the C.A.B. could reasonably be expected to persist in such illegal conduct. ..and, since it presently is the policy of the F.A.A. to allow the number of flights at O'Hare to increase over the next ten years or m o r e . . . t h e n o i s e a n d a i r pollution levels and the number of persons exposed to those levels can be expected to increase unless some change is made in policy or in equipment and operatiing procedures. So, I went to court. In a suit filed August 23,1974, in the Federal District Court, I asked (1) That officials of the F.A.A. and the C.A.B. be ordered to -comply with the various duties required of them; (2) That no increase be allowed in the number of aircraft using O'Hare until the Defendants have complied with the provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act and the Administrative Procedure Act; and (3) That an absolute limit be placed on the number of flights at the airport. I also asked that the court declare the present conduct of the F.A.A. and the C.A.B. unlawful. I feel many of the problems at O'Hare could be alleviated substantially through the use of technologies and operating procedures now available to the F.A.A. and the airline industry. These could include using control segmented approach and departure procedures; using flight paths over less populated area; retrofitting of older aircraft with sound- absorbing engine housings and larger fans; restricting use of the airport to newer aircraft which are cleaner, quieter, and hold more passengers; and imposing curfews on the hours that the airport is operated. The relief requested of the court, if granted, will force the appropriate federal officials to examine their present policies in the light of the environmental and human harm which those policies cause, and require them to consider alternative and less harmful policies. If they should choose to continue with the present policies, they will be required to justify publicly and on the record their reasons for that choice. If they cannot then justify their choices, they will PAGE IS - PLAINDEALER-WUDAY.
