PAGE 2-PLAINDEALER, WEDNESDAY. MAY{», \m Insights T House defeats restrictions R0|] rail; House rejects bid to Stop power on mandated.programs The Illinois House/" of Representatives has foiled to act upon a propped con stitutional amendment that would restrict the state man dating of locally funded programs, according to its co- sponsor Senator Jack Schaffer (R., Cary). Senate joint resolution 98 was approved 36-14 by the Senate, but died after receiving no action from the House. This resolution would have put a referendum before the general public to curtail legislative mandates. "As a co-sponsor of this resolution, I regret the House failed to act upon it/' Schaffer said. "Although it will not be included in the November election, J will work to have it placed on the 1986 ballot." Hie amendment wou ̂make it more difficult for the General Assembly to require new programs of lcoal governments and school districts without providing any means of tending. It would require that bills mandating such an expenditure of local funds pass the legislature with a three-fifths approval.

This win perpetuate subskBied rates that are about one- tenth the market rate. Critics said the bill will cost the Treasury $3.5 billion during the first ten years and bfflkms more after that. Supporter Bffl Frenzel (R., Minn.) said the amendment should be hacfcpd by "those who believe in a free market and believe that energy from whatever source ought to be freely priced in that market...." Opponent Morris Udan (D., Ariz) said renewing the contract was consistent with the historical rationale of federal hydroelectric projects, which is not to make a profit but to recover construction inwi transmission costs interest. Members voting yes wanted Hoover Dam power to be priced at market rates. Illinois-Philip Crane (R., 12) did not vote. MILITARY-By a vote of 207 for and 208 against, the House rejected an amendment to spend less on the category of military aid that goes primarily to Third World countries.

The vote occurred during debate on a.$1.8 billion foreign aid bill (HR 5119) that later was passed and sent to conference with the Senate. Sponsor Byron Dorgan, (D., N.D.) asked: "When will this Congress and this president come to grips with the federal deficit that threatens to rupture this country?" Opponent Stephen Solarz, (D., N.Y.) said the higher outlay "contributes to the national security of the U.S." by <*m>h»ng friendly Third World nations to defend themselves rather than i request U.S. intervention. Illinois-Philip Crane (R., 12) voted no. EL SALVADORrBy a vote of 212 for and 208 against, the House gave President Reagan a big victory by approving some $261 million in fiscal 1984-85 military aid to El Salvador.

SENATE DEFICTT-On s tte vote of 4JM9, the Senate rejected a Democratic alternative to President Reagan's deficit-reduction package.

The vote occurred during debate on HR 2103, which after five •wfci of debate neared passage. It marked the closest the SMiyfa hn« come to mitring major changes in the so-called "Rose Garden" plan, which Reagan has called a down-payment on up coming annual deficits of at least $200billion. The Democratic plan called for a four percent after-inflation hike in defense outlays over three years, rather than Reagan's proposed seven percent increase. Also, it inflicted softer cuts in social spending, and delayed from fiscal 1985 until 1987 the president's proposed tax indexing to insulate taxpayers against inflation- caused "bracket creep." Illinois-Alan Dixon, D, voted yes. Charles Percy, R* voted no. SOCIAL SECURITY-The Senate rejected, 23 for and 72 against, a deficit-reduction plan that sought large savings primarily By' limiting cost-of-living increases in entitlement program such as Social Security, military and civil service pensions and federal workers' compensation.

The plan would have cut the deficit by $236 billion over three years, compared to the $144 billion cut in the president's proposal. The vote occurred as the Senate moved toward final passage of HR 2163 (above). Senators voting yes favored limiting the growth of entitlement benefits in order to achieve large cuts in the deficit. Illinois-Dixon voted yes. Percy voted no. Crane supports Soviet withdrawal Congressman Philip M. Crane (R-12), who earlier this year introduced legislation calling upon the International Olympic Committee to prohibit Soviet Union athletes from parr ticipating in the. 1984 summer Olympic games, said he is pleased that the Soviets have withdrawn from the games.

She had not come home from school and would never have gone somewhere without telling her parents, her mother explained. She was a model student-pretty, active, successful. She simply would not have run away, her mother told the police. Because the missing child was 16, an age at which die could easily have gone somewhere after school and have forgotten to call home and a prime age for runaways, the Streamwood Police Department decided to use a standard waiting period. Like many police department statewide, they allowed a 24- hour waiting period to be certain she was really missing" befdfe conducting a search or notifying other law enforcement agencies of the disappearance. Delphine Wright's daughter was missing. She had not runaway or forgotten to call.

Delphine Wright was one of many witnesses who recently testified in behalf of legislation the Illinois House is considering to combat the crisis of missing children. The In tergovernmental Missing Child Recovery Act of 1984, which has received committee approval and is now before the full house, urges law enforcement agencies to abandon their 24-hour waiting period policy in missing person cases. Under the provisions of House Bill 2775 as amended local authorities will be required to enter missing person reports in the statewide Law Enforcement Agencies Data System (LEADS) computer im mediately after receiving even a minimum of information regarding a disappearance. This eliminates waiting time and notifies law enforcemrnt of ficials statewide of a disap pearance. The legislation also calls for the establishment of new Illinois State Enforcement Agencies to ation C ' Recover3<!y<tfen (I-S^ARCH) Units. The units will combine efforts by local law enforcement agencies, local government and the public at large to combat the missing children* crisis. I- SEARCH units will educate parents and children about child abduction, disappearances and to compile information on in cidences of disappearances, maintain files on known sex- offenders, and gather in formation on area places and resources where runaways are most likely to turn. 1 The primary responsibility of the I-SEARCH Units will be to mobilize immediate and ef fective community response to the disappearance of a child. However, the units will also offer self-defense and awareness programs for children and parents, encourage parents to maintain complete and up-to-date records and photographs of their children and assist in the tracking M recovery of children who disappear from other areas of the state. More than one million children who are reported missing in this country each year 02 S °3>' * ̂ era* 0/\01 vX wU. . <¥* =viune4,1984°° OPgN 6 DAYS A WEEK/APPOINTMENTS PREFER "FORMERLY OF *FR0M THE NECK UP*1
