He was given a weekend pass and the two toured the sights of interest including Betsy Ross' home, the Liberty Bell, Benjamin Franklin's home and grave, the First Church of Christ Scientist, the site of Washington's Inauguration, and the First Congress home. While Charley's physical appearance is just great, he is much quieter than when he was last home. When he is released fromthe hospital, he will be eligible for a medical discharge.

Now, if s coming back for at least another $12 million, it appears, to bail them out on their teachers'wage settlements. "The State Legislature was totally unjustified, in my opinion, in 'giving* Chicago that money last year and will be equally unjustified in opening the State Treasury to it for $12 million more. "If Chicago homeowners paid as much tax as we, there would be no need for these handouts. Chicagoans are 'wailing* about the 'highest tax rate ever* for this year. However, even last year, thirteen of the cities and villages here in McHenry county paid more taxes than Chicago will this year and the five other were just slightly less. This year, our taxes will be higher yet. "The differences between Chicago and the outlying cities and villages come about in two JANUARY 26, 1968 - P LAIN DEALER - PG. 7 major ways. Each is vital. it, Chicago lis violating thestatt These differences probably wouldn't be' important if there were no such things as state equalization funds for . chools or if Chicago would st< ,-> going to the state when it gets into trouble because of low taxing. "Chicagoans are assessed cmly $10,000 for a home valued at $25,000. We, at least in the biggest township, dre assessed $15,000 - a full 50% more. If Chicagoans paid taxes on their homes on the same basis, i.e., 50 percent more, imagine what a difference that would make in available funds. Of course, Chicago is violatingthe state law! "A second difference is that Chicagoans do not pay personal property taxes. Think what a difference such taxes would make in Chicago school budget income. Of course, in not doing law! "It is arguedthatl pay a heavy auto tax. And, deed they do. But, thistaxi ey goes to the city's general, fund and is not shared with the schools. In the counties, we do pay personal property taxes and some 80 percent of this goes to the schools. "You who are outside of Bigtown can help prevent this additional tax fraud by malting sure that your State Senator and State Representatives know hour you feel. I suggest that you urge each to turn a deaf ear to this forthcoming tax raid upon you and your State Treasury! It does appear timely for good government to replace politics as usual in Springfield and Chicago.
