McCLORY REPORTS From Washington The work in a congressional office does not come to a halt during a recess of the Congress. Indeed, although many members of the U.S. Senate and House are attending political conventions during the month of August, it is "business as usual" on Capitol Hill. The number of early summer visitors to Washington decreased dramatical V immediately following the riots and the "Poor People's March". But this situation" has changed again. Now, many 12th district families are making vacation treks to our nations cagtial and the office of their Congressman is scheduled in their itineraries. Correspondence on such issues as federal gun controls and the proposed travel tax has diminished, but a steady stream of letters on other national issues continues to arrive. As the second session of Congress will resume on Sept. 4, a review of the legislative calendar has been necessary. The issues which remain are not as numerous as they are controversial. Such projects as foreign aid, military appropriations and the contested appointments of Justice Fortas and Judge Thornberry remain unsettled. Most importantly, congressional staffs continue to render constituent service during periods of recess - as fully as at other times. Problems - affecting our servicemen, our veterans, social security recipients, and many, many others, are handled as promptly and conscientiously as during the period when Congress is in session. Those who communicate with the Washington office of this member of Congress - during these brief weeks of the Congressional recess - will find little difference in the degree of response. "Business as usual" means getting on with the job of serving the 12th district, inor- out of session! As a footnote, however, it is this member's opinion that his Washington office staff find life less hectic - in his absence. ^ITEM: If two open doors kjsep bumping into each other, and one is a closet door, change the latter to a folding door.

Rt. 120 Mc Henry g The ; '§, I.- Drivers 1 £ If, in your driving, you've ever noticed something that you considered unsafe about the design of the road, your car, some other vehicle or the traffic system in general, you may have wondered, "Why doesn't somebody do something about that?" The fact is, somebody probably is, at least conducting research into the very condition that struck you as hazardous, and if s from this research that many of the recent traffic safety reforms have come. Below are some of the areas in which the National Highway Safety Bureau has awarded research contracts recently, and the amounts of the contracts. From time to time in the future, research programs that are of particular interest to the typical driver willbe reported in. this column. FIRE - $78,480 to prevent or reduce the danger of fire after a crash, through analysis of the design of fuel, electrical and exhaust systems, and development of safety standards for their performance. --$50,224 to develop tests and standards concerning the flammability of automobile interior materials. COLLISION -$22,245 to study guidelines for the strength and shocking - absorbing characteristics of materials used in the guards placed on the sides and rear ends of trucks and -trailers to prevent you and your car from sliding underneath them. DRIVER & PASSENGER SAFETY -- $155,141 to establish performance load stress levels for doors and door-locking devices on vehicles. --$52,500 for a safety evaluation of school bus interiors, including seats, seat backs, grab rails, restraints and both normal and emergency exits and windows DRIVER VISION - $53,796 to conduct tests and establish criteria for measuring and evaluating glare in a driver's field of view. DRIVER PREFORMANCE - $36,443 to determine what effect conviction of a serious traffic violation has on a person's driving. This will be done through a study of the driving records of motorists convicted of driving while intoxicated or convicted of hazardous moving violations where punitive action was taken or a personal appearance in court was demanded. * ilHCHKi'j IV THE OLD TIMER ITEM: To get just a few drops or even a teaspoon of lemon juice, you don't have to cut a leir^n. Simply warm the lemon to room temperature and jab a fork into it. Then you can squeeze out as much juice as you need and store the lemon, without diyin^but, until you need it again. Use The Classifieds C. Petersen, Palatine, Illinois: I remember my dad's butcher shop in a small midwest town. Dad bought live chickens from the farmers, kept them in a fenced area in the basement of his shop, fed them corn and grain and killed and dressed them as needed. Every Friday he killed and dressed several chickens for the Saturday trade. At Christmas time, dried lutfisk was purchased and stacked outside the store as it kept better there. This was taken in as needed, soaked in a white porcelain tub and sold to his Swedish customers. I watched him many times making Swedish sausage, spreading the meat out on a long wooden counter, seasoning it generously and crushing oyster crackers which he used instead of potatoes as most Swedes do. He threaded pig casings on a hand stuffer and turned a crank to "fill the casings. The meat cooler was kept cold by an ice machine, the mechanics of which I did not understand, but if he went away on a Sunday, dad would go to his shop in the morning and get the temperature in the coolers way down. On our return, a stop at the shop was necessary to again run the machine as it did not go on automatically. , Lingon berries were sold from open barrels. Dried beef was sliced off a slab and was more tasty than our packaged product today.
