Services will be Promotion Of Corn Growers McHenry county farmers are becoming increasingly in­ terested in the activities of the Illinois Corn Growers because of the promotional efforts of the organization and because of the potential funds that would become available for research and communications if a checkoff is approved. Larry Harris, manager of the McHenry County Farm Bureau, said legislation is pending in the Illinois General Assembly that would provide the machinery for farmers to vote on whether or not they approve a cent a bushel checkoff for the purpose of research, promotion and evelopment of export markets. Harris said four states now have a corn checkoff because farmers are increasingly aware that product promotion and research is the best way to achieve increased market potential. "Soybean, beef, pork, and dairy farmers have developed held at 11 a.m. Friday at St. Paul United church of Christ, Crystal Lake, with the Reverend Alan Mittler of­ ficiating. Private burial will take place in Windridge cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the St Paul United church of Christ, Crystal Lake. a producer-financed checkoff program. Corn growers through a National Corn Growers organization are ef­ fective in legislative lobbying at Washington because their members contact their senators and representatives with limited objectives-that is, to help their specific com­ modity," continued Harris. Henry Boi, Franklinville farmer, has been named to represent McHenry county in a district campaign to inform farmers about provisions of the expected corn checkoff vote later this fall. Bill Mullins, Shabbona farmer, has been active in the DeKalb County Corn Growers, moved his ef­ forts into the work of the Illinois Corn Growers a few years ago where he achieved a state of­ fice ; for the past two years has been on the inside of efforts for greater lobbying in Washington and increased financing through state-approved checkoffs as an officer of the National Corn Growers. Mullins lists four major provisions of the voluntary self- help program which it is an­ ticipated farmers will be asked to vote on; 1. It requires a vote of corn farmers before it can become effective. 2. Producers can easily get a refund if they don't want to participate. 3.

Asked why market development is necessary, Mullins cited this information: U.S. corn production has surpassed 7 billion bushels a year. A carryover of 1.4 billion bushels is expected. With a normal crop in 1979, carry over could reach 1.8 billion bushels. Additional support to develop more exports is needed if ex­ ports are to increase. At present Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas and North Carolina have checkoff programs. "We believe new uses for corn need to be developed. With this nation facing an energy crunch, we believe careful research and attention must be given to the place gasohol can occupy in supplying a portion of our energy." Mullins con­ tinued, "More research is needed in the area of corn sweetners to increase their adaptability to be used with other products. Research is needed in utilizing corn starch as a filler material in making plastic materials as well as a filler used in making rubber." Mullins said he believes studies should be conducted to improve transportation, production and harvest in order to cut production costs. "We can't depend on the government or any segment of our economy to help us finance production cutting techniques or new ways to use corn," summarized Mullins. Perspective NUCLEAR SCARES By RONALD REAGAN Despite the Three Mile Island scare, Americans, when polled a few days later, said they see the need for more, not less, nuclear power. They just don't want the plants in their neigh­ borhood. Though "think pieces" in the magazines are now questioning whether nuclear power can ever move ahead as a result of the Three Mile Island plant failure, the poll results may reflect a growing sophistication on the part of the American people toward this source of energf. When "anti-nukes" in various parts of the country called for shutdowns of other nuclear plants on the grounds they might be unsafe (guilt by association?) cooler heads prevailed. The demonstrators will no doubt be more vocal than ever before at plant sites and permit hearings, but the fact that the Three Mile Island crisis abated without casualties or the "meltdown" that the regulators and news media "conjured up" (as economist Eliot Janeway put it recently) may have done more to aid the cause of nuclear energy than to harm it. Janeway, a close student of U.S. energy policy and requirements, said: "The real sensation emerging from the crisis at Three Mile Island is that nothing happened to justify all the media panic and regulatory righteousness...The SOUNDS OF MUSIC When you hear a song in the air, my friends And you feel a song in your hearts The music swells to untouchable heights And touches unreachable parts. It may be a note of a bird on the wing Or the breeze rustling thru the trees It may be a sound from your memory Or a sigh from out of the seas. It may be the clamor of cities strong Or a newborn baby's cry It may be the crash of a rolling stone Or the whisper of a sigh. Whenever the music touches our souls It's made up of a thousand sounds That crash and tremble and whisper and sigh And every moment our life surrounds.

No nuclear power lobbyist could have asked for better proof that, contrary to popular prejudice, nuclear plants are safe." He adds, "...the source of the danger isn't in the way nuclear power is produced in the rest of the world, but rather in the peculiar way it happens to be regulated in America. The crisis, and there is one, is%vith government regulation, not nuclear powers." While Nuclear Regulatory commission spokesmen and utility executives were tripping over one another at Three Mile Island, President Carter found himself stepping into the breach with his visit to the plant, thus underscoring its underlying safety. The N.R.C. has had trouble getting its act together. Recently, it ordered some nuclear plants shut down in anticipation of earthquakes in eastern states where no ear­ thquake has been recorded. Non-standardization of plant equipment is a problem that the N.R.C. talks about, but has done little. Who is to blame for non-standardization and the proliferation of gadgets -- utilities, manufacturers, regulators -- is not so important as the need to end it. Stan­ dardization would reduce the possibility of human error, and human error, as Three Mile Island seems to have demon­ strated, is the greatest danger. In fact, if the investigation now under way finds -- as has been claimed--that the men on duty at Three Mile Island had been working such incredible stretches as 40 hours, new work rules should be instituted. If we won't allow a jet pilot to take a load of passengers across the country without proper sleep, why should we let a nuclear technician walk around half- dazed for lack of rest when the danger of forgetting to open or close the right valve might result in near disaster?
