"During those stays, I was in rooms (Hi both the second and third floors as well as the in­ tensive care ward. I cannot begin to adequately describe the wonderful treatment and care I received from the nurses, technicians, doctors, aides and others. "The staff showed a real concern for my comfort and well-being. Often, when it was not top busy the nurses would pop int<*vmy room just to chat and see l^ow I was feeling. No matter how late, or what my request, it was taken care of cheerfully and promptly. "The people of McHenry and nearby communities are for­ tunate indeed tp have such a fine medical facility so close to home. And when the new hospital opens, the medical care should be even more excellent. "I hope it will be a long time before I have to be hospitalized again, but when that day comes, I hope that I will be able to come to McHenry Hospital. "I would appreciate it if you would run this in your Letters to the Editor section of the paper. With medical costs around the country continuing to rise, I think the people of McHenry should know that they are still getting their money's worth in health care. i C "Sincerely, "Clarence W.

Thompson has called for the approval of new programs developed by the administration to upgrade state research efforts to better control toxic substances and wastes. "We live in a world filled with substances our parents never even heard of*" the Governor said. "And as long as our society continues to demand its current high level of sophisticated goods and serviced, industry will continue to produce hazardous waste materials as byproducts of the manufacturing process. "We've begun developing the technology to control hazardous wastes but we must step up our efforts to keep up with the changes in industry and our environment," he said. The | Chemical Safety Research Initiative proposed by the Governor in a special message to the General. Assembly has two components: -The Department of Energy and Natural Resources (ENR) will expand its hazardous waste research program and will implement new programs to' assist industry, citizens and communities in dealing with toxic substances and wastes. -The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) will test hundreds of chemicals commonly found in surroun­ dings to determine their effects on human health and the en­ vironment. To coordinate the research, ENR will establish a Hazardous Waste Research . and In­ formation Center in Champaign- Urbana. It will work closely with industry to organize a siting and assistance program and will coordinate interagency efforts to assist local and state agen­ cies. The center also will house laboratory facilities where expanded research and analysis can be carried out more safely and accurately. An ENR budget appropriation of $1.5 million will be needed in fiscal year 1985 to establish the center. Simultaneously, the EPA will develop toxicity testing programs in both centralized and mobile laboratories to evaluate the potential ill effects of chemical substances on human beings and the en­ vironment. The new tests will help in the assessment of toxic "hot spots" and hazardous waste cleanup, in awarding permits and emergency response. TCie EPA intiative will be implemented in two phases, requiring an appropriation of $650,000 in fiscal year 1985 and an additional $650,000 to fiscal year 1986. "Full implementation of this initiative will place Illinois, in forefront of state efforts to ensure chemical safety," the Governor said. "And that is where we want to be." Thompson said Senators Cal Schuneman of Prophetstown, Harlan Rigney of Freeport and Stanley Weaver of Urhcuia will lead efforts in the Senate for approval of the initiatives fundings. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY m r*f © 1-$? Work rights upheld The United States Supreme Court unanimously struck down a controversial union rebate scheme that allowed union of­ ficials to collect and use what the Court described as "in­ voluntary loans" from non- member and compulsory- member employees. The Court also tightened restrictions on how union officials can spend money collected from workers who are compelled to pay union dues and fees against their will. The Supreme Court's ruling expands the rights of employees who are not union members but are forced to pay dues and foes to union officials in order to keep their jobs. Railway and airline unions and employers may agree to such a requirement in their contracts throughout the U.S. Other private sector unions and employers may make com­ pulsory unionism agreements in the 30 states that do not have Right to Work laws, and similar requirements are imposed on public employees in 21 states. Two hundred Western Airline employees brought the case to the Supreme Court on Appeal from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

The NSF is the chief federal agency for funding basic research in science and engineering, anwmiiy providing of grants to universities, colleges and academic researchers,nationwide. In part, its 1985 budget gives renewed emphasis to behavioral and social sciences, and with an eye to Japan, provides y^nl ftufag to preserve America's global lead in computer technology. Opponent Judd Gregg, R-N.H., said the "p îg hike over' 1984 levels 'is a tremendous increase for any agency in these Hnw« of fiscal stringency."
