Folks have been admiring the Fox River for a century or more, and^for the last quarter of that time have been talking about improvements which would make the stream more beautiful and, at the same time, more useful. Except for work undertaken locally, nothing much has come of the plans, some of which were elaborate. There's a hint in the current program for the Fox that something might actually be done in the next year or so. Gov. Stratton said so during a visit at St.'Charles/in July. The Citizens' Commission for the Development of the Fox Rjyer, which he appointed a year, ago, has said so repeatedly. Word now is that the commission will ask the governor to get the necessary funds and authorization to begin work immediately on a number of needed dams--perhaps as many as seven. The governor mentioned several million dollars in his talk at St. Charles. There's no question that the Fox needs fixing up in one way or another, and most of us in the Fox River Valley area will go along with the need for recreational development. All waterways are getting crowded these days and it gets more difficult every year to find access to good outdoor recreational areas--not only on water but on land as well. With our increasing population, more outdoor recreation areas are needed. The Legislature should consider v,quite carefully, and we trust favorably, the suggestions of the commission which has, worked rather diligently this past year, gathering technical data as well as a sampling of the reaction of the public and property owners. The commissioners found most people backing such a program to preserve the beauty, - looking forward to the increased amount of water involved, the improved sanitation and an improved sports program. REVOKE LICENSES Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentier has announced actions by the drivers' license division of his office affecting residents of the county.
