p \ !PAGE_I8_» PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, JUNE 20, 1975 Those Coffee Breaks Coffee is unquestionably one of the great American pastimes. Millions drink it several times a day. Many have come to depend on it (caffeine), to get through the day. Now comes a warning from two British scientists. Coffee, they say, combines with preservatives put in certain foods to form nitrosamines - one of the most powerful cancer-causing agents known. Especially dangerous combinations seem to be, according to scientists, coffee combined with cheese, pork or corned beef. The chlorgenic acid in coffee combines with preservatives usually found in these products. One of the scientists suggests that until more is learned, the amount of coffee consumed should be limited. And when eating cheese and bacon in the morning, as millions do, perhaps one might defer coffee -- to enjoy it more with eggs and toast and other food combinations. On Justice In years past minorities in the United States sometimes suffered unequal dispensation of justice in the courts. (In some cases, of course, members of minorities were more leniently judged, as disadvantaged citizens.) Today it would seem the process has come full circle. Members of minority races often achieve their ends with charges of discrimination, whether or not justified. Members of minority races (which have a much higher per capita crime rate than the majority) often go free on probation or a legal maneuver after conviction in major crime cases because of this present-day situation. The latest eye-opener in 'this regard was the decision of Governor Marvin Mandel of Maryland granting Nick Bagley his wish--not to be extradicted to Maryland from New York. Bagley escaped from a Maryland prison three years ago while serving a life term for the murder of a Baltimore butcher. Criminals customarily add another offense, additional punishment, to their fate by escaping from prison. Bagley, in effect, has demonstrated that one can use illegal escape to nullify a murder sentence. (Mandel decided not to insist on extradiction because Bagley has led a clean life since his escape.) One needn't look further to find one of the causes of today's soaring crime. Even if in Bagley's case Marvin Mandel's decision to let him go free in spite of a murder conviction and subsequent escape from prison can be justified, the example to others is clear. One can hope to get by with murder if clever enough to escape from prison! te» Ol HOUGHTON HEATING • Air Conditioning • Gutters PHONE 385-5476 McHENRY EARL R. WALSH & JACK WALSH INS.

Throughout the month of May, we experienced a classic manic- depressive market. While many second tier issues which had lagged behind the market were strong, first tier glamors and cyclicals which had led the market came under selling pressure. This rotation from group to group which corrects over enthusiasm in some areas and exploits neglect in others is very healthv for stocks long term. Recently, the major unanswered question has been whether or not the market could make a new recovery high over Dow 860 in this environment or would we have to go lower to regenerate aggressive enthusiasm. The aaswer to this question isn't in yet and regrettably it won't be totally clear until whatever is going to happen is about complete. However, the action of important stocks the past few days has deteriorated, weakness has broadened and the market overall seems to have lost its upside "umph". On the fundamental side, we have had a great deal of good news on the table the past several weeks which means that these developments have already had their impact on investors. A day has hardly gone by without headlines declaring the end of ne recession. The very favorable trend of interest rates, and th>. improved climate in the Middle East. On both a fundamental and technical basis, we believe the odds favor lower prices short term and thus we advise a cautious stance. What we envision is a continuation of the correction- consolidation which has been with us for over a month now. However, it appears to us that current market action indicates that this pullback could become nastier than its predecessors earlier this year. Correction.. are never fun but they are essential if stocks are soon going to return to the upside rather than exhausting themselves in an orgy of euphoria. Although we are concerned very short term, the bigger picture remains upward in our opinion based on many factors including the following: Many stocks are cheap; institutions still appear very liquid; the economy hasn't even started to improve yet; we still have plenty of potentially favorable business and inflation news in front of us. Summer Begins June gives us the longest days, more total daylight, than any other month of the year. On the twenty-first summer arrives, to extend into late September. The freshness of June is special. The new leaves and growth all around are fresher and brighter than at any other time of year. (By August and September the new rich green has begun to yellow or brown). Because these are the first long, hot, blue-sky days the contrast is greater than later in the summer. Because it is the first summer month free of school for millions of youngsters, June has a special exhilaration. Because so many are married in this month, it has special hope and idealism. Also, June offers the first of the new crop of many vegetables and fruits. And so it may not be mere fancy when writers claim nothing is so rare or splendid as a night in June. June nights (and days) come but once a year; go outside and enjoy them! sz SENIOR CITIZEN S CORNER t HELPFUL IDEAS FOR SUCCESSFUL RETIREMENT % One out of every ten Americans is 65 years of age or older Forty- one percent-or nine million-of those people live outside cities One-third of all eldert^ persons in rural areas live in poverty. Many rural elderly are isolated from their neighbors because of poor roads or lack of public or private vehicles. This lack of transportation hampers their use of whatever services are available in rural areas. Sixty percent of this nation's Substandard housing units are in non-metropolitan areas; about one-fourth of these are occupied by the rural elderly. Nine out of ten of these occupants have in- The Waste Disposal Problem Over the past five years, committees of the McHenry County board have been investigating waste disposal in McHenry county. More recently the Waste Disposal committee has been seeking to solve these problems and has purchased an option on a parcel of land. that the officials informed. public and their will be better This is the second of the questions and answers. Others will appear in succeeding issues. Discuss Land Use Proposals A major meeting to discuss the use of land will be held Monday night, June 23, 8 p.m. at the Farm Bureau building, .John Martin, president of the McHenry county Farm Bureau, has announced. The meeting, sponsored by the Farm Bureau and the McHenry county Extension service, is a significant session, warns Martin. Farmers have much at stake jn what happens to land, in how it is zoned, and in the attitude people in authority have toward the use of land. A proposal by the Illinois Agricultural association to establish agricultural districts will be discussed. It is important, because this proposal has been introduced as legislation in the present General Assembly. John Quinn, University of Illinois specialist on economics, will discuss the alternatives and probable consequences of land uses. Herbert Klynstra, IAA department of local government director, will outline legislative proposals and the views of Farm Bureau on making the best use possible of land, a blessing this nation is thoughtlessly gobbling up with shopping centers, suburban sprawl, and parking lots. Also taking part in the program will be John Quay, McHenry county Regional P l a n n i n g c o m m i s s i o n executive secretary. The Agriculture district proposal is an effort to per­ suade people in government and positions of responsibility that they should deliberate any change in the use of land with great care and tbat steps should be taken to ehcourage conservation of natural resources. Klynstra will be able to an­ swer questions on this plan. comes below the poverty level Rural people 65 and older have more chronic conditions and limitations on their activities than the urban aged. Disabled rural elderly are doubly disad­ vantaged--due to both a scarcity of doctors and a lack of transpor­ tation to a medical facility. Information and assistance regarding the needs and interests of all our older people should be addressed to: Administration on Aging Social and Rehabilitation Ser­ vices Health. Education and Welfare Washington. D C. 20201 Questions from various, sources have been addressed to the committee regarding their work. The. committee has responded to these questions so II--What are hazardous wastes and how are they to be handled? Hazardous wastes require special handling to avoid illness, injury to persons, or damage to property. This portion of the waste production is increasing as the result of expanding production and consumption rates in industry, agriculture, and private households. The IEPA requires that a waste disposal facility have special supplemental permits for each type of hazardous waste from each source. In other words, each municipality's sludge will have to have a separate permit. In order for a landfill to qualify for these supplementary hazardous wastes permits, the landfill operator must submit to the IEPA a complete chemical breakdown of the waste. The IEPA has denied supplemental permits for disposal of hazardous wastes because the site was not suitable to handle the waste. These denials are generally based upon environmental or operational types of hazards. At the present time only one McHenry county site has a supplemental permit authorizing the handling of one special waste. No site in McHenry county has supplemental permit allowing it to accept municipal sludges. The opinion of the Waste Disposal committee is that the proposed waste disposal facility should be capable of securing a wide range of supplemental permits which will accommodate the maximum amount of McHenry county's hazardous wastes. ' 12--What volumes of McHenry county wastes are currently being disposed of outside of McHenry county? Based upon data supplied by the county's waste collectors, the only refuse being disposed of in IEPA permitted sites within McHenry county are those originating in the Marengo, Union, Harvard, Hebron and those coming from portions of Crystal Lake and Algonquin township. The private collectors estimated there are approximately 126 tons per day or 56 percent of McHenry wastes leaving McHenry county for disposal in landfills which may soon be closed because they do not have IEPA permits. Therefore, the estimated gap between McHenry county generated waste and the wastes disposed of in McHenry county is 126 tons per day. 13--How do the cities and villages presently dispose of the debris collected in spring and fall clean­ up drives? At the present time, city clean-up debris should be disposed in private landfills. Some municipalities require the private waste collectors to provide pickup for "clean-up periods;" other municipalities either hire a private waste collector, use city vehicles, or require the individual citizen to arrange and pay for private collection services. With two municipal landfills and a private landfill now closed, the possibility exists that the cost of this type of service will sharply increase in the near future, both to the municipality and the citizen. 14--Where can private citizens dispose of the wastes they haul themselves? The citizen may go to a private landfill, however, private landfill operators are not obligated to allow the private citizens to use their landfill, and therefore can turn away anyone they chose which could lead to more litter along the highways. 15--Why can't gravel pits be used? The committee directed Bauer Engineering to evaluate the use of McHenry county gravel pits for waste disposal sites. After thirty-two gravel pits were evaluated for use as a waste disposal site, the engineers concluded that considering all factors together, that only one site in the McHenry county is suitable. This is due to the presence of natural clay material on-site, which is needed to line the gravel pit and the availability of on-site clay for cover material. Factors to be considered in evaluating a gravel pit for landfill use, are the additional costs for installation of a leachate collection and treatment system to protect the groundwater; and the additional cost of a leakproof liner for the entire gravel pit site. These liners range in cost from $9,000-$13,000 per acre. It should be noted that recent studies and opinions of the IEPA are questioning the durability of asphalt and beontonite liners in gravel pits. Therefore, if liners are acceptable, and even if a gravel pit was donated, with clay available, it would cost $S,000-$13,000per'acre to acquire a proper permit. 16--What methods of waste processing technologies have been investigated and considered by the committee? The committee members have visited landfills in McHenry, Lake, Will and DuPage counties. They have also visited incinerators and shredding operations in Wisconsin, as well as having engineering reports prepared, which outline the advantages and disadvantages of composting, shredding, incineration and conventional landfill. The Septic Pumpers Association has also been contacted to discuss the disposal of these wastes. The committee has expressed a desire to seek additional information on all the disposal techniques available before any one method or system is chosen. It should be pointed out that all known technologies will require land disposal of some portion of the wastes. Committee members also are desirous of establishing a waste disposal facility which will have the ability to readily adopt to changes in technology, recycling, energy recovery, etc. 17--Why hasn't the committee decided upon a disposal technology first? Regardless of the disposal technology there will be a need for a land disposal area. In addition, the characteristics of a particular site may determine the type of disposal. Therefore, while a parcel of land is being investigated the committee is continuing research on feasible disposal techniques. 18--What are the advantages and disadvantages of each waste disposal technology? A. Conventional Sanitary Landfill Advantages: 1. Will be required for any technology choice because some portion must be land disposed. 2. Can easily be modified to other methods of disposal to reflect changes in technology and markets. 3. Least cost for operating equipment. 4. When completed the site can immediately be used. 5. No equipment to disassemble, least cost for operation and maintenance. 6. Least cost for disposal fee. Disadvantages: 1. Resource recovery is not included 2. Energy generation is not accomplished. 3. Requires large amount of land. B. Shredding and landfilling Advantage: 1. May require less cover. 2. Necessary process for resource recovery. 3. Necessary process for energy generation. 4. Requires less land than a conventional landfill. 5. Shredded refuse is easier to handle 6. Reduces the volume of refuse. Disadvantages: 1. Significantly increases disposal costs. 2. Significantly increases equipment costs. 3. Drastically increases operation and maintenance costs. 4. Modification is very costly. 5. Requires larger volumes than currently available within McHenry county. 6. Closing the site would require removal of costly structures. 7. Expensive building needed to house shredder. C. Composted Landfill Advantage: 1. Requires less land than conventional or shredded landfill. 2. Allows resource recycling by production of useable compost and fertilizer materials. 3. Produces an environmentally stable landfill which drastically reduces leachate potential. 4. Disposal cost equal to conventional landfill. 5. Demonstration program grants may be available. 6. Easily accept and handle watery sludges. 7. Reduces the volume in a landfill. 8. Allows for better handling on site. Disadvantages: ' 1. Equipment costs more than conventional landfill. 2. Operation and maintenance costs are high. 3. Site preparation costs slightly higher than conventional landfill. 4.
