h PAGE 14-PLAINJEALER FKIDAY, MARCH 12, 1971 Lakeland Park ;\Kay Druml - 385 GL854. Alderman Rogers .Gttves Important .Answers At Meet •> Jerome (Jerry) Rogers, one iXjf" our aldermen, has assured - roe- that he will be, as usual, at our association meeting on ' March 28 and will be most hap­ py to answer all questions. -Were are just too many un- "fonrtded rumors circulating • Vortcerning out sewer program Mid- drainage ditch and it is Vett" that if people would take the time to get the facts may- "be -<ome rumors could be ehang- factual information. ••Jerry" checked out the -Njling on salesmen, peddlers or "solicitors for me as I've re- -<?fcived calls on what should peo- do and do people have the "rigfct to call with sales pit­ ches on the phone or door to -floor. There is absolutely no ~Wav phone calling sales at- -ffrmpts can be stopped except -vrifh a very firm "NO" or just "bbtng rude and hanging up. This "gt*es for door to door selling too. A solicitor should obtain a permit from the city but does not really have to have it as ]ong as it is inter-state sell- which is what most door to "jdoor selling is. * Mr. Rogers also got the law Jon the dog problem which pla- >gu& the subdivision directly Vfrom Mr. Espey, Chief of Po­ lice, and anyone wanting any in- * formation can get it from the Vpolice department or by calling 'me and I will quote it from the •.statement I have from Mr. Es- vpey. It is lengthy and I would * like to print it all but today's » column is for the information *on the ditch and sewers. One Mhing Pd like, to mention tho" Jjn this matter is that one per­ son told me she had been told •by an officer that she had to "vcatch the dog causing trouble ^and then call the police. This Ms completely in error, you are No call the police. * To get back to the balance >-of the message received by me \£from Mr. Rogers, "On March Ml, Mr. Meyer, McHenry Su­ perintendent of Public Works, ^will be in Springfield for the ^bidding of our drainage ditch. must be remembered that this £iob is being done by the state •<and as such must be done ac­ cording to state standards. *There have been some changes the original plan and when ^these are finalized, they will ibe explained in detail." * "The latest word from the de­ partment of housing and urban development is that we can ex­ pect an answer in May on our ^request for federal aid for our •special assessment sewer pro­ ject. Our Congressman, Rob­ ert McClory, assures the city «he is very interested in our itause. The federal money is •*fir st appropriated by C ongress, Vhen parceled out to the state ^and districts and each request Avithin each district must be ^•considered. This all takes time •land we would be dismayed to ~think a sum of a million dol­ lars would be acted on in haste." £ Mr. Rogers can be reached ^at 385-0744 and Mr. Hromec vat ,385-0194 for any questions. 'Both aldermen would also like '*to be called for any ditches or '•roads that flooded over during '"our February thaw. They will '^present the list when work on ^culverts is done in „ spring. Our association meeting is '••set for March 28 at 2 p.m. at *!t'ne community house and it is ;hofted that all members will i-atfend. Election of four new ••board members will take place «*at^ the meeting.

Tax Facts Major Revisions in Illinois Income Tax Several important changes in the Illinois income tax will af­ fect individual returns for 1970, according to Richard Stone, chairman of the state tax sec­ tion of the committee on tax­ ation, Illinois Society of Certi­ fied Public Accountants. Al­ though the individual tax rate remains at 2% percent and eaeh~ personal exemption is still $1,000, 1970 is the first year for which the tax applies to income of the entire twelve Field Students at last Monday's meeting. Juan, who is from Chile and resides with the Jerrj Rogers family here in the Park, is one of the students.

Board meeting at 8 p.m. Fri­ day, March 19, Webelo. months. In 1969 the tax did not go into effect till Aug. 1. In figuring the 1970 Illinois income tax, the starting point is adjusted gross income as reported for federal tax pur­ poses on Line 18, Page 1 of Form 1040. To this amount must be added certain items which are exempt from federal income tax but tax­ able in Illinois. They include interest received on state and local obligations, the U.S. div­ idend exclusion and the 50 per­ cent of long term capital gains which are deductible for U.S. tax purposes. Not taxable by Illinois, how­ ever, are interest received on U.S. obligations, such as trea­ sury bonds, bills and savings bonds, and dividends on stock of national banks located in Ill­ inois; but dividends from one- bank holding companies are tax­ able. Items which are not tax­ able in Illinois should be sub­ tracted from the starting amount. Mr. Stone cautions that the limitation placed on capital gains or losses by the man­ datory Aug. 1, 1969, valuation date, must be taken into ac­ count by persons selling secur­ ities which were held on that date.
