Callers can get the address of their local unem ployment insurance or em ployment office, find out what the law says about working conditions, get figures on employment in the state, obtain Department of Labor publications or be directed to the personnel who can provide answers. "The trained people who will be at these telephoens will not have every answer to every question, but they will either have answers or know where they can be obtained," said Donald A. Johnson, director of the Illinois Department of Labor "Too often the stone wall of bureaucracy stands between somebody who needs help and those of us who are paid to provide that help. We intend to knock that wall down," Johnson said The new free telephone line is in operation from 8:30 a m to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Although residents are able to obtain general answers to questions about unemployment. insurance claims from the new service, there will still be another toll free number for specific information on unemployment insurance questions. That number - 800 972-5780 - will operate from 8 a m to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday Urge Wise Land Use When the Pilgrims sat down to their now famous feast over 300 years ago. they partook of food harvested from a rich nine inches of topsoil. Today this precious crust on the surface of our American earth, through the forces of wind and water, has been gradually whittled away to an average five or six- inch layer While nature can produce an inch of topsoil every 500-600 years, the erosion process, set in motion by man's in tervention in nature's balance, skims off approximately an inch every hundred years. The irreplaceable topsoil is, as we know an indispensable element in sustaining all life Our survival depends on it This appalling rate of loss has long preoccupied con servationists, agriculturalists and government officials, who have instituted many measures to save the land Their efforts, of course, will continue Yet their activity, focused principally on farmland and forests, will have less effect on the ever-expanding urban and suburban territory from which, every year, the elements make off. grain by grain, with tons of topsoil: This is where the in dividual can. as a partner with nature, intervene in a modest though importatit way The most effective means ol conserving that rare and costly topsoil in your yard is by the use of a variety of forms of plant life. Shrubs and vines planted on steep slopes will impede the harmful effects of water, not only by holding the soil in place with deep-running roots but aiso by breaking up raindrops as they fall to earth Efficient plantings where soil is sandy and subject to wind storms help greatly in halting soil drift. A 40 mile per hour wind has about four times as much power to pick up soil as a 20 mile-per-hour wind When its velocity is reduced by half, the dust-carrying capacity of a 40- mile wind is reduced 75- percent Trees and shrubs planted to utilize this simple relationship effectively help prevent a common form of soil erosion If the unique problems of your yard have not yielded to your efforts, the American Association of Nurserymen recommends persons contact their local nursery garden center for Green Survival advice on the best approach to restoring or keeping your yard in a stable, healthy and at tractive condition ' It may not be possible to put back the soil lost since Mayflower ancestors harvested their first crops, but the public can honor their memory and serve themselves and their heirs by making wise use of the land that remains 3932 W.
