Lyon Offers "Proof" • Anderson-Lyon Slug It Out Right Down To Wire Congressman John Anderson and his challenger, Don Lyon, are battling down to the wire, with the latter offering what he contends is proof that Anderson voted for a gun registration bill in 1968. Earlier in the campaign, answering a Lyon charge that Anderson had voted for such a measure, the congressman challenged Lyon to produce a bill that showed there is gun legislation. In a recent confrontation during candidates' night, Anderson said the vote in question, to which Lyon referred, had been a bill to ban interstate mail order sales of rifles. He said it could in no way be construed as gun registration. But Lyon has produced a copy of the Gun Control act of 1968, a federal law he says proves his point. The law restricts interstate shipments of rifles to in­ dividuals and generally prohibits persons from buying firearms outside their home states. The law also requires gun dealers to keep detailed records on the sale of firearms. Congressman Anderson answered by saying this par­ ticular bill was designed to restrict the mail order sale of firearms and that an amend­ ment offered by U.S.Rep. Robert McClory proposing federal registration was defeated. He questioned why McClory would have offered an amendment if the federal registration was already in the bill. The Congressional Quar­ terly, the news service which covers Congress most ex­ tensively, also says the 1968 Gun Control act is not registration and that registration was defeated. Hard work still repre­ sents the main essential of success in life. • » • • Americanism: Think­ ing you are educated when you finish school. SPAom US. 14 ft 173 HARVARD, ILL. •1S-S43-4461 24 Hr.

On that form, a customer must say whether he is under in­ dictment, convicted of any crime subject to a prison term of more than b year, an unlawful user of narcotics, or discharged from me * armed forces under dishonorable conditions. According to Lyon and his aides, the act also requires manufacturers and importers to keep a registry of which dealers received guns of a certain serial number They said the result is that the federal government could trace a gun owner quickly by checking first with a gun manufacturer, then with the gun dealer. Anderson claims that he and most authorities define federal gun registation as meaning a system where individual gun owners have to obtain permits from the federal government or at least register their guns directly with the government. Lyon retorts that most gun shop owners have another opinion on that point, and a strong one at that. The March Primary (an editorial) A Drimary election will be held Tuesday, March 21, and in spite of considerable pre-vote activity on the part of candidates, no predictions are made for more than a modest turnout at the pcSls. Several contests await voters locally, and hopeful candidates, many well qualified, are confident their promises will place them in office. Two seek the office of county clerk to replace Vernon Kays, who is retiring. Because of an excellent record extending back thirty- five years in that office, for nineteen years of that time as chief deputy county clerk, the Plaindealer feels Rosemary Azzaro deserves voter support. For representative in Congress, we strongly support Don Lyon, who is striving to unseat John Anderson in the 16th Congressional district. A lode at the record convinces us that the present office holder has cast too many votes opposed to the majority opinion of his constituency. •' These include a vote to continue negotiations that would surrender the Panama Canal. He also voted to support President Carter's plan to pardon Vietnam draft evaders even though on this issue, too, the majority of public opinion was decidedly in opposition to his view. Claiming to be fiscally conservative, Anderson nevertheless voted in favor of huge sums for free legal aid; for foreign aid; for food stamps; for research for the EPA and aid to bankrupt New York City, all at a time when the federal government continues to run into the red by the billions of dollars weekly. We believe it is time the 16th Congressional district is represented by someone more in accord with the thinking of this district's people. For Congressman JOHN ANDERSON Congressman John Anderson, who presently represents the 16th district, has been elected by his Republican House colleagues as their chairman for five consecutive terms beginning in 1968. He was delegate to the GOP National convention in 1976 from the 16th district and serves as senior Republican member of the House Rules committee. Anderson has been a spokesman for his party and frequently has outlined GOP philosophy and programs on nationally broadcast television and radio. DONALD LYON Donald Lyon, a native of North Dakota and now a resident of Rockford, is a 1953 graduate of the Open Bible center, DesMoines, Iowa. He was ordained to the ministry by Open Bible Standard Churches of DesMoines and started the church in Loves Park (Rockford). The church has since mothered three other Open Bible churches. While starting the church, he worked as manager of the main floor of the Chas. V. Weise Co., and later carried a can! with the Carpenters local. He served as treasurer for the midwest region of the National Religious Broadcasters as well as serving on the National board. He received an honorary "Doctor of Divinity" degree from Florida Beacon college and seminary. The candidate has devoted much time and effort as co-founder, president and now vice-president of Prevention, Inc., a drug rehabilitation center in Chicago. He and his wife have four children.
