As the company looks for­ ward to the March birthday of the invention of the phone, it will start the year by putting a "super switcher" into operation to handle long distance calls. The electronic switching system, scheduled for service in January, is the first in the world able to handle 550,000 calls an hour, more than four times the capacity of current equipment. Long distance callers in the Chicago and Springfield areas will be linked to areas of California, Florida and Ohio by this sophisticated new call- completing equipment which the company says will help hold the line on long distance rates. The project was a joint venture of Illinois-based Bell System units -- Illinois Bell, AT&T Long Lines, Western Electric and Bell Laboratories.

Basic personal and legal considerations in planning an estate will be discussed as well as some specifics of estate planning, as wills, trusts, gifts, taxes and insurance.

PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER-TUESDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1975 amount awarded in all of 1974! More than $20 million has been awarded under the "Additional Tax Relief" program, added to the Circuit Illinois Revenue Director Robert II. Allphin said that the state revenue department ^through Dec. 8 had authorized "^nearly $50 million in grants to senior and disabled residents for taxes they owed or paid in 1974. And Allphin said the Understanding Mental Health (Editor's Note: This is the third in a series on UNDERSTANDING MENTAL HEALTH, presented as a public service by the Family Service and Mental Health Clinic of McHenry County. Purpose is to help develop a much broader understandings of one of this nation's major health problems. Information is supplied with the cooperation of the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare. Today's presentation concerns Adjusting to a Nursing Home.) Entering a nursing home to live is nearly always upsetting to a patient and to his or her family. Many families shop for a nursing home for a long while before deciding on one, because they have mixed feelings about the step they are taking. They may believe it is a wise and right decision yet feel guilty about not keeping their relative at home. Even before someone in your family needs to be placed in a home, you may be able to do certain things to lay the groundwork for his adjustment. Because the familiar is always less disturbing than the unknown, try to have the person who needs care visit the nursing home before he becomes a resident. If this is not possible, visit the home yourself or have a member of the family or a friend make a personal visit beforehand. When your relative or friend is admitted to the home, plan to have someone accompany him. Help the nursing home staff introduce him to other residents while on a short tour of the premises. Reassure him that he will never need to feel abandoned or helpless (not in those words, of course) by checking in his presence the bedside call system, the daily schedule of mealtimes, recreation, and visiting hours. Families and friends can help make the patient feel at home by making the new surroundings more stimulating and homelike. Bring in familiar pictures and precious personal belongings such as photograph albums, bedside clocks, knitting or other handwork, writing materials and books. (Ask the staff first if any items are forbidden). And visit as often as you can. Two publications can serve as guides to family members and community volunteer groups working with institutionalized patients.

The applications are being sent to anyone who applied in any previous year for tax relief. ^ Allphin said the number of property tax relief grants issued through Dec. 8 had exceeded by nearly 70 per cent the 104,969 grants issued in 1974. There have been 174,863 property tax relief grants so far this year. The amount of those grants has totaled $28.3 million, nearly $12 million more than the Breaker law in April to provide relief of other taxes senior and disabled Illinois residents pay. Allphin said that by Dec. 8 the department had issued 254,^41 grants under that program. Claims for relief of 1975 taxes can be filed any time after Jan 1. A single form, IL-1363, serves as the application for both the property tax and additional tax relief programs.
