Legislator Calls Status • • • -- 7 ' ' a Quo Session A Victory The 79th General Assembly has adjourned without facing any state-shaking issue^f&uch as the Regional Transportation authority or a state income tax, reports State Rep. Cal Skinner, Jr. (R-Crystal Lake). "One thing is clear," he said, "33rd district' residents did not lose big this year-as they did in those years when R.T.A. and the state income tax were v enacted. "Maybe that's She least we can hope for," Skinner said. "In an area which is as relatively affluent as our five- county district, just main­ taining the status quo should probably be considered a major victory." . More specifically, the legislature: --provided increased tax relief for senior citizens; -passed a plan to equalize assessments statewide at 33-1-3. percent of the fair market value over a three year period; -took control of the Illinois State Fair from the Governor and placed it under a board made up primarily of in­ dividuals elected by local county fair boards; -refused to reduce penalties for^ the private use lof marijuana to the same level of crime as a parking violation. (Skinner's latest questionnaire indicated only about 18 percent of 33rd district citizens favor such a change.) -refused to pass gun control legislation; -finally provided for monthly payments of state legislator's salaries (as a Skinner bill called for this year); ^ -moved the primary election date. from the third week of March to the first Tuesday in April; -refused to cut state aid to local schools, as requested by the Governor; jr --temporarily Maintained the 9.5 percent usury fate; -defeated branch banking; -reformed Illinois rape law; -passed a bill to provide free textbooks for all public knd private school students; -increased unemployment compensation benefits; -refused to ratify the Equal Rights amendment;' ® -defeated re-apportionment >of congressional districts; - d e f e a t e d c o l l e c t i v e bargainng for teachers and other public employees; -refused to make any change in Illinois divorce laws, which now require a finding of fault on the part of either the wife or the husband; --crushed the so-called " a c c e l e r a t e d b u i l d i n g program" that would have put the state $4,000,000,000 in debt and that would not have been paid off until the twenty-first century; -refused to strengthen the criminal justice system by providing a mandatory life prison sentence when a person is convicted of committing a violent crime with a firearm for the third time; - d e f e a t e d n o - f a u l t automobile insurance requiring a threshold of damages that must be reached before one can sue for pain and suffering; -approved an abortion control bill that will require written permission of the husband or a parent of an unmarried minor prior to the aborton; -developed a program" on medical malpractice court suits hopefully designed to hold down the costs of malpractice insurance and, hence, the cost of medical care;' --defeated a Consumer Protection agenqy independent of the Consumer Fraud division of the Attorney General's of­ fice; -beat back attempts to in­ crease truck wejghts and speed limits on Illinois highways.

Plans continue for a 50 percent increased enrollment in the coming school year. Individualized materials enable the student to develop and to work at the top of his ability level in all subjects. The board says: "He is freed from confusing group pressures. Personal success is certain with learning tools tailored for ability rather than age. Several average students have achieved over two years of progress in one or more subjects. Controls built into the environment and the curriculum teach personal responsibility, respect for authority and self-discipline.

FRESH Santa Rosa Red Plums FIRM RIPE Eastern Grown Peaches State government spent $138 million more than it took in for its day-to-day operations during the fiscal year that ended June 30, Comptroller George W. Lindberg said. "This means that we have just recorded the largest general funds deficit in Illinois history," Lindberg said. The previous deficit high was in FY 68, a crisis yearthat led to the state income tax in" 1969, the Comptroller noted. "We are about to exhaust the fiscal bonus created by passage of the income tax," Lindberg said. "The reason the state's financial condition is so precarious now is that for the past twelve months spending has exceeded income in record proportion." FY 75 marked the end of three successive years when revenues exceeded ex­ penditures, Lindberg said. "This is distressing, because the growth in the state's income was the highest in FY 75 since the first year of the income tax." "What we now face, in light of the state's fiscal per­ formance in 1975 and the Governor's planned deficit in 1976, is the possibility that the state could be in serious cash trouble during the next 12 months," Lindberg said. The comptroller emphasized that the state's worsening cash situation is not recession- caused. "Deficit spending is to blame," he said. Spending increased in FY 75 over FY 74 by $613 million in tb general funds, Lindberg said, which caused the monumental deficit despite the fact that the state took in $392 million, excluding federal aid, more in the past twelve months than in the preceding twelve-month period. "The cruel news for Illinois taxpayers is that while the state's income rose by 10.8 percent in the past year, spending raced ahead by 13.8 percent," Lindberg declared. Lindberg said there should be n o e x c u s e f o r s p e n d i n g m o r e i n < the coming year than is taken in. "If the pattern of over­ spending witnessed over the past year continues,, it will iorce either new taxes or harsh cuts in services this year or next," the Comptroller said. During the past year, Lind­ berg said, the available balance in the state's general operating funds dropped from $453 million to $314 million. 'The governor's budget plan to spend $215 million more than the state will receive during the next twelve months will bring the state to the same brink-of- bankruptcy that existed in 1968, Lindberg said.
