"Absolute freedom of the press to discuss public ques­ tions is a foundation stone of American liberty." -- Herbert Hoover Compile Voting List For ASC '72 Elections A list of eligible voters for McHenry County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) community committee elections is now being compiled at the ASCS office. Producers may check at the local ASCS office to make sure that they are listed to receive ballots in the mail elections to be held later this year. Producers and the general public may inspect the list from now until Dec. l, 1972, at the McHenry County ASCS Office, 670 East Calhoun Street, Woodstock. Voter eligibility for ASC committeemen elections is non­ discriminatory and is ap­ plicable without regard to race, creed, color, sex, or national origin. A farmer who is eligible to participate in any ASCS program is eligible to vote in ASC elections. This includes not only producers of legal voting age who -own, rent, or sharecrop a farm, but also minors who supervise and conduct farming operations on an entire farm. Spouses of eligible voters can participate in ASCS elections if they are joint owners or joint tenants of the farm. In addition to these voters, any legal partnership, such as associations, estates, trusts, State or State agencies, may also receive a ballot. Each owner in a joint farm owner­ ship also has a vote. However, a producer may only vote in one community election in the county regardless of the number of farming interests he has in different communities. "We are exerting positive effort to assure that the names of all potential voters are on the list," said Mr. Finch, ASCS county executive director. "We have gone over previous election lists, program par­ ticipation records, mailing lists for our newsletters and other ASCS bulletins and are can- Deaths fered Monday morning at 11 o'clock at St. John's church, Johnsburg, with burial in the church cemetery. IRS OFFERS HELP TO FLOOD LOSS TAXPAYERS Roger C. Beck, district director of Internal Revenue Service for Northern Illinois, announced today that the Glen Ellyn office located at 1200 interested in attending are urged to call for reservations. Mrs. Himpelmann com­ mented that this series is an excellent opportunity to help citizens to understand the issues in the upcoming elec­ tions and emphasized that anyone is welcome no matter what his political persuasion may be. Roosevelt Road, Glen Ellyn, will provide assistance to eligible taxpayers for the filing of amended 1971 tax returns claiming flood losses for tax refunds. Office hours: 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Mr. Beck said that an amendment to the Federal Tax Law signed Aug. 29,1972, by the President allows taxpayers who suffered losses in sections of the country declared disaster areas to claim those losses on the prior year's tax return. Since Cook, DuPage and McHenry counties were declared disaster areas by the President as a result of the severe storms and flooding beginning on or about Aug. 25, 1972, a taxpayer who suffered a flood loss may claim a deduction for that loss by amending his 1971 tax return. Individual income taxpayers may file amended returns for 1971 by using Form 1040X. Corporations may use Form 1120X to file amended returns. Mr. Beck stated that the nearest IRS office to the majority of those taxpayers in the Cook and DuPage County disaster areas is the Glen Ellyn office located at 1200 Roosevelt Road, Glen Ellyn, Illinois. The telephone number is: (312M95- 1500. -Gas premieres a new pollution-free energy service at White Hen Pantry food store. Experimental fuel cell at a White Hen Pantry food store supplies the most pollution-free electrical energy from an on-site power plant operated by natural gas. Though still in an experimental stage, this new fuel cell power plant is the most pollution-free energy source known to man. The most modern coal or oil central power stations release large amounts of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, and solid particles into the atmosphere. But not the fuel cell power plant. Because it uses an electrochemical process and runs on natural gas, its harmless by-products are carbon dioxide and water, practically eliminating all sources of air pollution. The fuel cell power plant will be one of 37 installations, all financed by private funds, that will be put into operation through the U.S. during 1972. llla " protect^rr'0 Northern Illinois Gas Company Should the Government control NO! "Congress shall make no law . . . abridging the free­ dom of speech or of the press." -- U. 8. Constitution NO! "Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost." -- Thomas Jefferson NO! "Let the people know the facts, and the country will be safe." -- Abraham Lincoln The Press NO! "Robust criticism of gov­ ernment by the press and the consequent skepticism of the press on the part of the government are the nec­ essary ingredients ... for a truly free society." -- Senator Sam Ervin YES! "The organization of our press has truly been a suc­ cess. Our law concerning the press is such that diver­ gencies of opinion between members of the govern­ ment are no longer an oc­ casion for public exhibi- tions, which are not the* newspapers' business. We've eliminated that con­ ception that everybody has the right to say whatever comes into his head." --Adolf Hitler YES! "Why should freedom of speech and freedom of the press be allowed? Why should a government which is doing what is believes to be right allow itself to be criticized? It would not al­ low opposition by lethal weapons. Ideas are much more fatal things than guns. Why should any man be al­ lowed to buy a printing press and disseminate per­ nicious opinion calculated to embarrass the govern­ ment?" --Nikolai Lenin NO!
