(By Yvonne Beer, Executive Officer, McHenry County Board of Realtors). If you are looking for a way to sell your real estate investment without paying heavy capital gains taxes on your profits, you might consider exchanging your property with someone else. Exchanging is a fast growing movement that has attracted some 20,000 to 25,600 professional exchanges or property-swap counselors across the country. These professionals specialize in putting together tax-free transfers of real estate of almost any size, shape or location. This is the way it works. You decide to sell your in­ vestment proper'/ Thanks to inflation, its value has doubled since y >u purchased it. The profit c.i the sale will result in your paying the government thousands of dollars in the form of capital gaire Uxes. You opt to trade it instead and avoid paying capital JOHN F.

In the event your property exceeds the vajue* of the property you are® receiving, and the difference is paid in cash, you will be taxed on the difference alone. The key to this amazing concept is Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. Under its provisions, anyone who owns property for in­ vestment or business pur­ poses can trade it for property of "like kind" and equivalent value without paying a cent. Only when you truly sell your property for cash do you trigger federal taxation. Many of the experts in property exchanging feel there's absolutely no reason whatsoever for anyone to pay capital gains taxes today. Apparently there are many legitimate ways under Section 1031 to ex­ change property and get everything you want out of the transaction. Property swapping is not for everyone but is one more option in an ever in­ creasing array of alter­ natives available to the buyer or seller of real estate in today's marketplace If you're interested in obtaining more information on property- exchange, consult the realtor of your choice who can help you decide whether or not it's for vou. I ' '<> A flS By Joanne Sprfngman Shaw Media News Service Legislation is before the United States Senate to revise and' supercede -the Communications Act of 1934, which has been rendered i* obsolete by modern com­ munication technology "Because of new technology," said Stan ^ Jozwiak, manager df * the Illinois Bell Telephone Co. office in Woodstock, "we need a new book, and the Communications Act of 1934 is no longer useful to us." If the proposed telecommunications policy, supported by the Reagan administration, were enacted into law by Congress, the legislation would serve to delineate new communication regulations, implement restructuring of the Bell System and negate the need for current an­ titrust action by the U.S. Department of Justice against Bell. In recent years, new technology and a series of regulatory, legal and legislative actions have caused a change of direction in national communication policy. The traditional franchised, regulated single- supplier telephone industry is being transformed into a multi-service, multi-supplier telecommunications in­ dustry, in which competition replaces regulation as the driving force. ^ Since 1950 the line between telephony and computers steadily has blurred to become indistinguishable and integrated. Proposal supporters believe business and home telecom­ munication needs will require companies of the future to provide packages of equipment and services. However, the packages need not be offered by one com-, pany but will need to be compatible. Proponents say telephone companies should not be restrained by outdated legislation from competing with other companies such as IBM or foreign com­ petitors such as Nippon. Jozwiak explained there are other firms in com­ petition to provide services already provided by Bell. For example, MCI Com munications Corp. now provides long-distance service to 550 cities nationwide. In addition, in 1980, there were 3,000 American companies in competition for distribution of telecommunications equipment. Jozwiak said Bell now wishes to enter the fields of other businesses and compete in some of those markets, such as that of home computer systems. He said the proposed legislation would delineate the areas in which Bell could compete and those in which it would be restricted.

(Editor's note: This is another in a series of especially written articles for McHenry county readers. Joseph Cools is a psychologist on the Family Service and Community Mental Health Center staff. This article is "Coping-Post Partum Depression ") Childbirth is a traumatic process both physically and emotionally for most mothers. Besides the actual physical discomfort and pain associated with the birth process and the couple of weeks following birth, there is an immediate and rather drastic change in the mother's body chemistry, particularly the endocrine system Hormones that had been produced in abundance during pregnancy are suddenly stopped, while hormones that had been s u p p r e s s e d d u r i n g pregnancy are reactivated. The drastic physiological change that occurs at this time can precipitate a feeling of depression that is clinically indistinguishable from a functional or e m o t i o n a l l y b a s e d depression. In most women the feeling of depression does rtot start until at least two or three days after the birth of the child, and may not begin until two weeks following birth. Most women who report having gone through a post partum depression feel a loss of energy, uncontrolled crying, general feeling of sadness, irritability, and, at times, a feeling of anger or resentment directed to the child and husband. Feelings of wanting to comfnit suicide are frequently retorted in post partum depression, although actuah suicide attempts are raVely en­ countered. C? The symptdpi of depression may ^be short­ lived, lasting only a week or two, but may be prolonged over a period of up to six months. In mild cases, no professional intervention is necessary if the family is supportive of the mother and able to talk to her and un­ derstand her feelings. In severe or prolonged periods of depression, professional c o u n s e l i n g a n d - o r medication to relieve the symptoms are warranted.

Nearly 17 percent of the average Commonwealth E d i s o n r e s i d e n t i a l customer's total bill in 1980 went for environmental costs, a new study by the utility reveals. The average customer, who used about 6,625 kilowatthours in 1980, incurred an environmental cost of $70.27, or 16.9 percent of his total bill. More than 30 percent of price increases in electricity since 1969 has been due to environmental co6ts,' the Study discloses." - Edison's - environmental costs last year were approximately $659 million. Dividing that figure by total i960 sales of 62,220,895,000 kwh yields an average environmental cost of 10.607 mills per kwh. Multiplying that cost by the average amount of residential kwh use produces a total 1980 cost figure of $70.27. In Management Program Carol L.
