Top Priority M Sfe 9 League Commends Constitution Study Group Pontiae ... Styling Leader In 1968 SEPT. ?; 1967 - PLAIN DEALER - SEC. I, PG. 5 The League of Women Voters Of Illinois has commended Governor Otto Kerner for signing the bill creating a Constitution Study commission and approving the full appropriation of $75,000 for continuing the work of this group. Mrs. James Miyashiro, president of the Woodstock-Mc- Henry league, said: "The League of Women Voters has given top priority to passage of the referendum for a constitutional convention in November, 1968. We believe that this commission can contribute to public understanding of the need for the constitutional revision and make significant preparations through the publication of research materials for a convention. "The League has worked for a constitutional convention for the past twenty-five years," she explained. "We firmly believe that the citizens of Illinois need an opportunity to di s - cuss and debate our 1870 constitution. It is interesting to note that conventions are presently being held in several states which are also faced with outmoded constitutions. Many of these states, such as New York, have relied heavily upon the work done by constitution study commissions." The League called the constitutional referendum "one of the most significant accom- K OF C COUNCIL OBSERVES 60TH YEAR THIS FALL McHenry Council, No. 1288, Knights of Columbus, will celebrate its sixtieth anniversary Saturday evening, Nov. 25, as members and their families join guests and friends at the Wing 'N Fin for dinner, dancing and a program.

MAJORITY VOTE "Enthusiasm over the prospect of a long-awaited constitutional convention is already evident," Mrs. Miyashiro continued. "The proposition will require a majority vote of all those voting in the election. This is not an easy task, and we are concerned that everyone understand why a fresh look at the whole document will help to resolve some of the problems of government which originate in the detailed, inflexible hundred yefer old state constitution." The Constitution Study commission will be increased from eighteen to twenty-six members, eight of whom are appointed from the House of Representatives, eight from the State Senate and ten by the Governor. When asked about the other accomplishments of the 1967 Legislature, Mrs. Miyashiro answered: "A comprehensive water resources management plan for Illinois passed this season. If signed by the Governor, it will place Illinois in the fore-front in the field of water programs.

Mrs. Miyashiro concluded by saying; "A year from November will be a significant election with two issues of such importance on the ballot, along with the election of a President, Governor and United States Senator in addition to other state and local officers.
