Page Twenty | w MRS. SPINDLER IS DELEGATE TO 1 FARM FESTIVAL THE MCHENRY PLAIND EALIR Thursday. April 9i B59 Sunnyside Estates '.1.CI [i ii.I no (!t, / U . if!' l < V t* by Lois Anderson Mrs. George Spindler, delegate to the 1959 Farm and Home Festival at the University of Illinois, attended that event on April 2 and 3. Units left by car and chartered bus, with night lodgings at Allen hall. The campus swelled by many folks, farm, town and city. This year's show featured the theme "Research For Tomorrow" with displays, exhibits, demonstrations and a series of outstanding speakers on the latest scientific facts about farm management and homemaking. Special features included a square dance demonstration, talent show, art exhibit, tour of the greenhouses and the playboy prom. All information gleaned from this trip will be brought back to the remaining members of the various units for future discussion. It was our pleasure last Thursday 1o be among members of the Sunnyside unit atr lending the T. V. luncheon party. In the absence of Mrs. Spindler the chairman, Mary Rose, headed the program with The Lord's Prayer. Food consisted of egg drop soup, chop suey and rice, a cottage cheese salad, and cake and coffee. The bake sale was nearly, over before it even began as the ladies were buying out all the home-made goodies as fast as they were coming in. The "silent auction" cleared the. table too, and with it all the well known butterflies left the diligent committee, which was responsible for this enjoyable event. Well done girls! Visiting at the Jack Davis residence last Friday was Mrs. Laura Miller, a former nex t -door neighbor of the Davies. She enjoyed seeing old friends and neighbors and was surprised to see how the community has grown since her last visit.

This gift was given to them by the association to show its appreciation for the use of their home for past meetings They in turn were very happy to receive it and wish to express their gratitude. Recovering By now Johnny Rau should be completely over his bout with the measles. As far as we know he is the only one (keep your fingers crossed) to be confined so far. Four year old Steven Kuntz is recovering nicely from his tonsillectomy of last week. He was a very good little patient, which makes it easier for everyone, including rnom and dad. The Women's auxiliary of memorial hospital. Woodstock, presented to him, as they do to all young patients, the cutest hand puppet and verse which helped to cheer him up after the operation.

SCOUT NEWS EXPLORER POST The Explorers of Post 662, who are going to attend the region ten Canadian -wilderness canoe trip on June 21, will have an adventurous ten days before them. They should look forward to canoeing through numerous Canadian lakes, fishing in virgin waters, and camping in forests once inhabited by Indians. Some of the coming attractions for the fellows will be trap shooting and the rifle range. The next meeting will be Wednesday, April 15. Robert Regner.Sec. In the famous "Lost Speech" delivered by Abraham Lincoln, May 29, 1846, at Bloomington, III., he is reported to have said: "Let us lay aside our/prejudices, and march--shoulder to shoulder--in the great army of freedom." It was on this date and at this place that the Republican party was born, and-- as our contemporary, Carl Sandburg, h^s said: "If he didn't say those words, he should have." The struggle to eliminate prejudice in all areas of our society is as old as the history of man. In the present session of the Illinois General Assembly legislative measures-- described as "equal opportunity," "fair employment practices," and by similar titles-- have occasioned emotional .speeches, much misunderstanding, and--perhaps--some tangible results. The earliest such bill HouSe Bill number 2--was sponsored by more than forty members of the Illinois House of Representatives. Described as a bill to create an Illinois "Equal Opportunity" commission, the bill would apply only to employers of more than twenty-five persons, to labor unions, and to some other organizations. The commission would be grahted wide authority to investigate and punish violators of the stated purpose of the act; and, if found guilty of making employment decisions no the basis of race, color or religion--as well as national origin--employers and others could be subject to such harsh penalties as fine and imprisonment. In addition to the harsh regulatory aspects of the proposed legislation, the political implications cannot be overlooked. The bill introduced in the Illinois House was sponsored by more Democrats than Republicans. On a national basis, the Democratic party--through its control of the southern states-- must assume responsibility for prepetuating prejudice against negroes, even to the extent of excluding them from public transportation facilities,, public parks, golf courses, beaches, and libraries, where tax support would appear to establish unquestionable equal rights. It is the writer's impression that, the Republican party in Illinois has suffered too long from the opposition's sponsoring of this type of legislation. The Republican members of the General Assembly should do everything possible to amend House Bill number 2, or to draft some measure--omitting the harsh penalty clauses--as comparable in the ends sought. By the enactment of a Republican sponsored statutory program to encourage voluntary compliance with the principles of merit employment, we could relegate this "political issue" to the archives. Few appear to demand the severe penalty provisions, except for the obvious coercive effects. The sponsors, them- "selves, are wont to point to the New York State statute, where similar provisions neve^ have been employed to the extent of imprisioning a violator. To this writer, it seems that such regulations are inconsistent with the development of "brotherly love" and should be deleted from the pending bill. Gov. Stratton has voiced himself in favor of equal opportunity legislation and the writer hopes that support for the principle enunciated by the governor can be garnered among Republican as well as Democratic members. This bill should be primarily to assure that applicants will be hired purely on the basis of training, experience and general fitness for the job sought and the legislative measure should be worked. The color of an applicant's or employee's skin, .he race or religion or place of origin-- by accident of birth--or even the age to which the years have brought them should not be listed among the disqualifications for work--or for promotion. Voluntary programs have gone far toward resolving the problem of prejudice in industry. On the other hand, the threat of a punitive statute has -- undoubtedly -- hastened the adoption by some of a voluntary program. A full and complete answer to this perplexing program is possible at this session of the legislature, by the passage of appropriate educational legislation with Republican backing. Such an enactment would "end the political bigotry practiced by some of the sponsors of previous legislative proposals for "fair employment.". And--the Republican Party would again be (as it was conceived op that fateful day at Bloomington,) "the great arfny of freedom," offering the fairest and greatest opportunity for all without regard to race, religion, Color or place of birth. jbe& • Baked Lasagna tehcioud rru.
