PAGE 18 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY, AUGUST 24, 1973 Birch Society Reveals Opinion Poll Results During the McHenry County Fair, the John Birch society booth conducted an opinion poll dealing with important questions of interest to local citizens. There were eight questions, five of which dealt with local control and support of police, and the question of gun ownership and registration The other three dealt with Metro Government, Communism as a threat, and support of the United Nations. Approximately 150 replies were counted, and the replies showed an interest in government, and an awareness by citizens of the dangers confronting the public. The results of the poll are as follows: 1 Do you believe you have the right to keep a gun in your possession without having to register it with a government agency? Yes 85 - No 65. 2. Do you believe local police departments should be kept under local control? Yes 129 - No 19. 3. If yes, would you be willing to support them through local taxes to keep them in-* dependent? Yes 116- No 17. 4. Do you think our police departments should accept LEAA (Law Enforcement Assistance administration) funds, thereby assuring federal control? Yes 41 - No 89. 5. Do you believe we need more restrictions in regard to gun ownership? Yes 85 - No 63 6.

The difference in total an­ swers to question six, dealing with Metro Government, resulted from ignorance of some people of what Metro government is, according to the Birch society. Overwhelmingly, the Society said the poll showed that people do not want federal control over • local police departments, and are willing, despite cries for lower taxes, to support their local police with their own money. This should encourage those departments which are undecided, to refuse the LEAA money now being offered to them. poll also showed that, people are concerned indiscriminate use of they are opposed to registration. Most persons expressing opposition to gun registration stated that registration was the next step toward confiscation. Almost two-to-one, those polled believe that Communism is a threat to the whole world. The Society said it found this most interesting in the light of recent diplomatic recognition of Red China, and favored nation trade agreements with Soviet Russia.

Knowles, Route 1, Piscasaw River Area In Conservation Plan In creating the Piscasaw River Conservation area, the trustees of the McHenry County Conservation district are further defining a larger corridor in the northwest corner of the county which was made a part of the approved Land Acquisition plan and policy. Piscasaw creek extends into Boone county and empties into the Rock river. The Piscasaw Conservation area which is a part of the district's broad land acquisition plan, roughly outlines the creek watershed within the boun­ daries of McHenry county. This area will include possible sites they will attempt to acquire. District trustees will be looking fai^Uhd with access to streams recreational use, for unique geological features, for native vegetation worth p r e s e r v i n g , i n c l u d i n g ecologically valuable swamps and bogs. They will be in­ terested in flood plain land, not usable during high water periods, but suitable for recreation during the remainder of the year. There is always the possibility that a desirable parcel within an area is already in an alternative use or that the owner does not wish to sell. The trustees presently have no policy for taking land over the objections of the owner. They prefer to work openly and freely with the owners of the parcels they hope to acquire. The McHenry County Con­ servation District Land Acquisition plan has. for its broad outlines "Conservation Corridors" which cover most of the county watersheds. These large areas are refined by study and on-site inspection to "Conservation Areas." Land inside these conservation areas will be designated for possible acquisition by the trustees. What is actually acquired will depend on the willingness of owners to sell or lease the land, or to grant an easement to the district. Laws of the State of Illinois limit the price the district can pay for land. It cannot pay more than fair market value and that must be determined by appraisals. The trustees are also bur­ dened with the responsibility of acquiring land today the full value of which, as open space, will only be fully appreciated sometime in the future.
