Coalition Names Doubledippers ROCK ISLAND LINES To prevent a . severe economic impact on more than 350 Illinois businesses, 13,000 daily commuters and 3,000 jobs, Gov. James R. Thompson requested that President Carter continue service on the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific railroad for an additional 60 to 90 days. He asked the president to intervene with the In­ terstate Commerce Com­ mission (ICC) to extend its "directed service" order. Under directed service, the ICC enters -into an agreement with another railroad to manage the bankrupt line and pays the operating deficits for a limited period of time. Unless, an extension is or- dred, shipments on the line will be embargoed, and all service will cease on March 2. The Coalition for Political Honesty has released a list of 53 state legislators who are doubledipping during this session of the General Assembly. Altogether, the Coalition says the 53 doubledippers received almost one million tax dollars in salaries and fees in the past year. Doubledipping is a long­ time Illinois practice which permits legislators to~ receive pay from local governments in addition to drawing their legislative paychecks. - Illinois legislators are already the highest paid in the nation with a $28,000 annual salary plus an ad-: ditional $7,400 in yearly fringe benefits such as free health insurance, per diem allowances, and travel expenses. "Doubledipping infects and distorts the legislative process and is a gigantic waste of taxpayer money," said Patrick Quinn, Coalition spokesman. Quinn said Chicago alone spent $298,701 of tax monies last year to maintain 1$ doubledippers on the city payroll. Quinn urged taxpayers opposed to doubledipping to sign the Coalition's L e g i s l a t i v e C u t b a c k petitions for a binding referendum to reduce the number of legislators in the Illinois House from 177 members to 118. "The Cutback amendment is the best way for citizens to do something about politicians who condone doubledipping," said Quinn. "By abolishing the jobs of 59 legislators, the people of Illinois can overhaul a legislature which is more concerned about pay raises and doubledipping than in adopting strong rules of ethical conduct." Even in the wake of the legislators' 40 percent pay raise last year, the4 Senate Executive committee defeated a modified bill (Senate Bill 13) to abolish doubledipping by a 9-7 vote. "The practice of doubledipping causes legislators to vote in the interests of the local politicians who gave them their jobs, rather than in the interests of the people who elected them," Quinn said. "The General Assembly should not be haven for political payrollers. The people of our state deserve a legislature which serves the interest of all the people all the time," Quinn concluded. The Coalition for Political Honesty collected 635,158 signatures in 1976 on behalf of an absolute prohibition a g a i n s t l e g i s l a t i v e doubledipping, similar to a WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIMIT QUANTITIES ON SALE ITEMS DELLIIQII0RS MERCHANTS OF FINE WINES AND LIQIK s ^ A A mm A A A A H H D T C i o n I A « U C M D \ SALE BEER NOT ICED NO SALES TO MINORS LIQUORS 4610 W.

Insurance and Investment Services What Just One Person Can Do Crusader For Decency 'fl can't change the whole world, but I can try to change a small part of it," said Mrs. Kay Fiorentino of San Pedro, Cal. That's a Christopher statement it I ever heard one, so I'm going to tell you a little about her. She is an extraordinary woman who started a crusade against por­ nography in San Pedro a few years ago. To date, she has closed down an X-rated movie house, an "adult" bookstore dealing in sex- explicit materials, and a house of prostitution. "It wasn't easy," she explains. "It took 69 days of continuous picketing day and night in the latter part of- 1975 to close down the Mermaid theater." It was during the picketing that the owner of an X-rated bookstore across the street put up a sign defying the picketers: "Ninth An­ niversary! Thank you, San Pedro." It was like waving a red flag, so Mrs. Fiorentino's Citizens Opposed to Por­ nography (COP) chose the bookstore as its second target. Again it took more than two months of daily picketing but the owner finally closed that store and two others nearby. It all began when a priest at St. Peter's Catholic church, aware of her organizational abilities, appealed to her to help him do something about the porno theater in town. "What's a 'porno' theater?" she asked. "When I found out, that's when I started to do something about it," she said later. She had to retire from Lockheed in Burbank at the age of 39 because of rheumatoid arthritis. Left to her pain and idleness, she got worse. Her world ended. "For five years I just existed. Life had no meaning for me." But once she became involved in the community, she recalls now, "life began to take on new meaning. I became physically active and that was goddior me." Her husband Gerrard, gave his wife of 21 years his full support. He believes it was all in God's plan and so does she. Kay Fiorentino minimizes her own strength and tenacity. She gives the 150 members of COP, two Catholic parishes and members of the local Mormon church a large part of the credit for the vic­ torious struggle. "Looking back I cannot help but believe it was God's will that I do it and I'm happy I could," she says now. Kay Fiorentino and her h u s b a n d e n d u r e d harrassment, ridicule and scorn for their efforts. They think it jvas worth it.
