r \ Highway Commissioner Hears National Leaders Clarence Regner, highway commissioner from McHenry township, was among the hundreds of persons who attended the first national conference of the National Association of Towns and Townships (NATaT). , Two prominent Carter administration Cabinet secretaries and four members of Congress ad­ dressed the conference, held in Washington, D.C. Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Moon Landrieu spoke about community development and HUD policies affecting small towns and townships. Secretary of the Department of Agriculture (U$DA) Bob Bergland explained the township implications of the Carter administration's Small Community and Rural Development Policy as well as other USDA programs. There were also speeches by Senator David Duren- berger (R-MN), Senator Donald Riegle (D-MN), Rep. Clarence Brown (R-OH), and Rep. West Watkins (D- OK). NATaT's conference, titled Bridging the Gap„.- Between Your township and the Nation's Capital - was organized to focus much needed attention at the federal level on the interests and concerns of the coun­ try's thousands of township officials and small com­ munity governments. Regner met with a number of Congressional represen­ tatives from Illinois and had an opportunity to discuss issues and "compare notes" with hundreds of local of­ ficials from communities with needs and problems similar to those in McHenry township. Regner is a director of the Township Officials of Illinois. The state association is a member of the National Association of Towns and Townships, which advocates at the national level the interests of local government officials from over 13,000 predominantly small, non- metropolitan communities across the country. - College Honors McHenry Girl Named Fraternity Officer Catheripe R.
