Rep. A. Telcser: ''Is there any discussion . Question is shall

Hirschfeld.''
Hirschfeld: ''Well, Mr . Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the
kHouse, anybody khat had an opportunity last week to read
'the report from the lllinois Legislative Investigating
Commission on the three president's homes at Eastern,
Western and I.S.U., could not fail but note the deplorable
job that's been done by the Illinois Board of Higher Edu-
cation once again. And as you all know, I introduced a.
bill a yearfago, it's been reintroduced again this year;
and it's going to be reintroduced next year, to abolish the
Board of Higher Education. Now, this particular institutio
has gone from a budget of about $400,000 to several million
of dollars and I've yet to see it justify its existencebefore this General Assembly. I realize that my comments '
are going to go in vain, we're tilting at windmillsg but I
think we need to tell the Illinois Board of Higher Educa-
tion either to do its job or to quit. Frankly, it's a'sad 1lstate of affairs, it was under Governor Olgllvie and it is
' under Governor Walker, when the Governor tells the Board of
Higher Education how much money education can have. The
Board of Higher Education then goes to the various univer-
. ku yjjg J r.g ... ... cr.y:.-o . .-.tïy. l ..-. . . , f. r:v:. v . s v. A x. e o s I u u , ?% o I s. . . % ' ' -.,.%y. . r . - . . , / ' . v , v s sz.t . . .q o k, sc o Fr R spn ess pl'r4. , qwx: z'? a%. .

sities and colleges and tells them how much money they can
have and that's what their stuck with. When we instituted
' the Board of Higher Education: they were instituted in orde
to plead for higher education to this General Assembly.
Instead of that theyRve become the tool and lackey of the
Governor and of the Bureau of the Budget in the State of
Illinois. It was bad enough under Olgilvie when they were
in Chicago. Governor Walker's done even more now . He's
brought them back to Springfield where he can complete..
'keep them completely under his thumb. And I think for once
ke ought ko turn down their budget and go back to the old
system where we fund these universities direct and save the
State of Illinois several millions of dollars that's bping
- wasted by the Board of Higher Education.''
' Rep. A. Telcser: ''Is there further discussionw''
Lechowicz: ''We11, Mr. Speaker, if I may just respond to thatbriefly. If you take a look at the budget request in
House Bill 24?.5, we're talking about 'as amended'. An
appropriation of $1,05$,000 for operations and $23,165,000*for grants. Now, the previous speaker may disaqree with '
' the sqay the higher education budgets are submitted to this
General Assembly, but, in turn, I think there's another
checkpoint and a very valid one, that the various univer-
sities that are covered within this budget do have a
screening agent. And, in turn , the various people from
higher education, the various school teachers, the assessor ,
in turn, have a direct input, and have somebody accountable

, there are certain areas that should be corrected. I
too concur with the excessive expenses as far as the
universit# homes. But, in turn, if you'd report in tctal
the report shows that there were devious accounting
measures used by this President and I think that the
State should havé retbibution coming back from these
people through law suits. I don't think it's a direct
Ylap at the Board of Higher Education, they should have
been aware of it. Maybe they don't have enough audit'
xpeople to go through and varify the various fouchers
that were submitted. But in timep I still think this
is an appropriate budget a'nd I would hope for your favbrabl'
vote . '' '

Phase-in Program requirements predicted to slow down
expenditures of Piscal '75, $250,000 for HECA Grants, '
grants are to provide start-up money for programs
not continual support.. that's for the 359,000 in the
Education Corporation Act Grants. We have ah.. the
Higher Education Cooperative Grants have been funded
at $350,000 in Fiscal '73 and '74 with $50,000 going to
the Quad-cities Graduate Study Center. Begun in 1970
'the Center developed institutional cooperation across
state boundaries to provide graduate education. The' xparticipating schools include Augustana College, Northern
Illinois University, Southern Illinois University,
University of Illinois, Western Illinois University, '-
Iowa State University, Maycress College, University of '
Northern Iowa, University of Iowa. The 5,000 was requested
for a non-recurring cost to perform a study of college
tuition for the above universities. This amount was not
to be taken out of the base. This, here, 312,000 is
requested for a 50% start-up funding of the Mid-lllinoisk
Computer Center. This is to provide interactive computer
time sharing, licensing for software packaqes and a central
maintenance point for communal use software packages for
SIU, Edwardsville, Western Illinois University, Eastern
Illinois University, and through.. through staff approve
the consolidation effort. To reduce the funding forIPiscal '75 is recommended in the hopes that overlapping

will be thoroughly'justified. The Illinois Financial
Assistance Act for Non-public Institutions for Higher'
Higher Education passed in 1971: and this year the
direct program ko Non-public Colleges and Universities.
The Board of Higher Education distributes grants to
the institutions by the following formula: $100 per
Ereshman or Sophomore at the Illinois State Scholarship
Winner, and $200 for a Junior or Senior who is an.lllinois
.resident. Based upon the computation as far as the number'of upper classmen and middle classmen that appropriation'
xis at $6,000,000.''
Juckett: ''Ah.. thank you. I think it's interesting that we
should know what these monies are actually going for .-
rather than just lumping it together for the Board of. Higher Education. I think I would join with my colleague
from Champaign County and indicating that this Board has
been very laxed in the past over the spending of money.
And I don't think it was a mere oversight on their part %
as to the Presidential Home. Because if it was an over-. k
sight, then theydre in worse shape than we think, because
everybody in any town.. every town.. where these homes
were built, knew how they were being built, knew theI
fact that they were using a subterfuge to get around
the State Appropriation Act. And when these Presidents
can have a home built by the foundation, and then obligate
the States for paying hundreds of thousands of dollars
so khat the President can live in kingly splendor. I think

we ought to take a second look at this Board of Higher
' Education and I think maybe the best vlay is by voting
'no' and letting them realize that we are aware of some
' of their shortcomings. The sponsor is very responsible
but I think the board has been irresponsible and I think
there is only one way we can show our attitude and that's
by voting 'no' on this bill and letting them ccme back
and confess their sins so to speak, but I urge a no vote .
'on this bil1.''

feeling the complete frustration of the gigantic educationa
system that we have cultivated in Illinois and in many
senses of the word, a fine educational system. But having
missed the roll call and came in and registered a 'no' voteNon the University of Illinois budget, I would like at '
this time to suggest that my negative stand is for the
operation of the department. We have several dozen,
perhaps several hundreds of well-quakified, Illinois
young students who are trying to get in the University of

we take approximately l0% of the Law School candidates

expire in our State of Illinois. Don't misinterpret
this, that I'm in love with the 1aw profession, but I
think it's a classical exrmple of our law and our
medicine that we continue to fund constantly and
incessantly the gigantic educational systems of this
state and fail to remnmher that they were designed for
Illinois students by charter. Therefore, Mr. Speaker
and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House, anyone that wants
to follow my lead will register a complaint onlyk ' r.

as far as providing the necessary financial assi.stance

fact that under the Illinois Financial Assistance Act
which in this bill costs $6,000,000, this is strictly
for Illinois residents. And the second point under the
Hea1th Services Education Grants, which is the largest
increase... now this is to provide the enrollments as
far as medical and dentist schools in b0th the public

There's a formula for need. So, ah. . one person ah..

I am going to vote for it. I think it is a good concept

unless there is some changes in it, I might not be supporti g

Yhat has beeh ah.. put together and presented to the

in regard to the scholarships, the availabilityy and hpw

investigation, if what I hear from time to time and over
and over agàin from people in the area that they have the
feeling that scholarships area awarded by this commission
on the basis of who can do the best job of lying as toNwhether they need the scholarship or not. And after
considerable discussion, they finally wound up with the
propo... the conclusion that this is probably true. And
. we asked what kind of texts there were that were made
available to determine whether or not people were really
' telling the truth on these applications. And they indicate
to us that 5% of thqm were taken at randcm and were checked
against their income taxes. But, that the income tax

And they could 1ie to high heaven about what their
assets might be. So, I would certainly hope that
this Scholarship Commission would come up with some
better means of determining the needs of students to
have these scholarships that has been through in the past.
I'm going to support it this year, but I.. I'm also
going to try to did around and see if I can find some
means of amending this bill and praviding some greaker'equity and fairness in providing these scholarships
really on the basis of need, instead of on the basis'
Aof who does the best job of lying about the needs for the
scholarship.''

The Lady is asking us to ah.. continue the operations .1
of the Scholarship Commission in the manner and form

than this one, which would provide educational opportunity
for Illinois' fine young people, and ah..... the money for
new programs, it seems to me, ought not to be viewed as
a detriment. It ought to be viewed as an additional in-
centive because it means that the scholarship commission
is taking notice of its own limitations perhaps in termsof past programs. I think that ah.... more than ever in
this age in which we live, educaticnal opportunity must be'gïven the highest possible priority

from Cook has a Bill, which deserves our consideration,
certainly ah.... at a later date, bqe may consider it and

not doing a good job of educating our young' people. Wedre
not doing a good job of providing educational opportunity,to those who lack the financial resources necessary to get '

out on the average home, it would have increased real

to the voters as to whether they wished this increase to

presents amendments that the sponsor of a Bill may not
favor, or without going to some discussion with the sponsor
over it. However, this North Shore Sanitary'District
belongs to me and the voters just as much as it belongs
to any one sponsor. Amendment No. 2 to ah.... Senate Bill
876 would provide that any rate increase in the North
Shore Sanitary District, any election holding for such
rate increase shall be at either a county wide primary ori '
.general election. Nowy Ladies and Gentlemen of the Housey
Qet me say that the reason I support this amendment and
frankly the sponsor of the ..... House sponsor of the Bill
ought to really be presenting this Amendment and not 1, -'
l- because when the RTA election was held in Lake County, therewas nobody who spoke louder for the facts that Lhe RTA
referendum shouldn't have even been held in the primarye .
but in the general election when al1 of the voters, or a
good percentage of them will come out. Now, Ladies and
Gentlemen, We have talked very often of tax relief. We
have here before us a Bill that is going to tax people. .
It's going to call for people to go into a referendum .
We've got an election coming up in November. The trustees
of the Sanitary District can put that on our November !
ballots. There would be nothing precluding .them from doing
lit. Eh.... now back in 1968, %le held a 35 million dollarreferendum and we also had a rate ipcrease at that time.
That was held at a special electicn when only ten percent
of the people voted. In our rimar election here on RTA ,. s..f.,...,t..% z I o.t% x'-) A;ég -J7a > . G E N E R A 1- A S S E 51 B L Y' ) w-kj . yyktq , ! ï svwxu o,- , uu,x o.s! z ..: , j. V' , V Y . - ' . g.r:'.C ' H otl SE O F R E PR E Se; NT A T I V ES'r n .. %:x*.<

vle had at least about 34 percent. Now the trustees of
the Sanitary District, they've had two releases. One
said they're going to have election in September. Then
evidently, they must have thought 'wait a minute, that'sl
coming too close ko the general election. Somebody is
going to find out what we are doing. So the next release
I saw, they are going to have it in laie summer. Ladies'and Gentlemen cf the Housey they ought to have it in. k
.November when the people are going to vote. I say thi's
'is a good amendment fcr the people of the.state of
Illinois, for the people of the sanitary district, which
I am a representative, and 1 would ask for your support.'' -'
A. Telcser: ''Is there any discussion? Lady' from Lake, Repre-
sentative Geo-Karis.'' -
A. Geo-Faris: ''First of all, we wouldn't even be here on this
Bill, if there wasn't a real emergency existing in Lake
County. The comparison the prior speaker makes of the
RTA and this Bkll, does not hold water at all, because
it's two different things. It's just comparing apples to
peaches. The..... his Amendment No. 2, I am opposed to
and for this reason. If this Bill is concurred, by the
Senate, with Amendment No. 1, if it's passed by the House
hereg then the sanitary district will be allowed to have
. the election sometime in the summer, in their referendum .
The People will decide whether or not they will accept the
change in tax rates. There is an emergency because the

Case Number 696C6CH179: brought suit against the North

the District to remove a11 affluents on Lake Michigan.
Alright, now, the Supreme Court said that the Sanitary
District has the power to sell bonds for Capital expendi-
tures. However, we cannot move without having money for
operational expenses. Therefore, we cannot help the people
' in our District if we don't have thak amendmento . . . if We'$do have the amendment on there. Therefore, I speak against

Lake Mtchigan before January 1, 1975. And if we fail to

$10,0000 a day. Now our sanitary district has received a
great deal of federal funds to proceed with the building,

tax to voter referendum , which I supported and which
Representative Geo-Karis supported and I believe that
Representative Matijevich doesn't really oppose this, butto delay this particular election until November
, this
referendum, will absolutely defeat the whole meaning and
purpose of khis tax increase if it is Voted in by the
people. I would urge you to defeat this amendment and
allow the people in Lake County, who vitally need this'money, to at least have the opportunity to vote on this
before November. I'm suke the people will be wise enough
to make al1 the elected officials accountable in November
when they go to the polls and you don't hxve to delay the
vote until that time. .

North Shore Sanitary District whereby the trustees of this

Lake County Board Fould be elected by the People. It would'
Mandate an elected board of trustees, and I Ehink that 1this amendment is most appropriate at this time because we

recall quite vividly the sponsor kept talking about the
fact that that Board was going to be run by Mayor Daley.

that's al1 I heard, but yet nobody seemed to give a dam
that the Lake County.... the North Shore Sanitary District
for years and years and years and years has been a Repub-
lican controlled sanitary district. Some Republieans are - ..
- even upset over the fact that itls been # small section of
that party, but I think the amendment is a good amendment' -
because it makes no doubt about it. It doesnlt put it in
the hands of the Democratic party. It doesn't put it in th

As much as I admire my colleague from Antioch, I must
tell you something about him he didn't reveal. And that is
he doesn't even reside in the North Shore Sanitary District
And neither does the Chairman of the Lake County Board
of Supervisors, because only the east 1/3 of Lake County
is located on the North Shore Sanitary District. He.''does
represent consituents that reside in it. But he doesnpt.

never in thè history of man since it was founded in 1912
was a Democrat every appointed a trustee of the North
Shore Sanitary District. They got a perfect, 100t record
of appointed Republicans. It was 'even worse when the
chief judge of the circuit court did it. And before that,
the county judge. They were the most partisan people
you could ever find. Now the Chairman of the County '
Board and the County Board is acquainted bad, because
wedve elected a few Democrats to it. But, let me tekll .
you that khe Chairman of the Lake County Board doesn't
livelin this district. He makes appointments, we have
wards now. A1l webre asking is that the trustees of this

estate tax. Here we have a body that imposes a very
heavy real estate tax on the people and theylre appointed.
Let's elect them. The two biggest sinitary distrlcts
in the State are elecked by the people. And this is
the third biggest. There's no reason why this sanitary
district shouldn't be elected. It fluted the lake, it
delayed the clean-up 6f the lake, it torn.. it's torn>bp streets throughout my community, it tried to build
à sewer plant, it's been unresponsive to the needs of
the people, it's the biggest flute on Lake Michigan
that we have. Let's elect the trustees and get responsible

going to support this amendment and vote 'aye'.'' ' -

I think I'm going to have to take exception with some of th
comments made by my colleagues on this side of the aisle.
In that I think that itJ'is a very good idea to elect
the members of the North Shore Sanitary District. I think
it is in a11 fairness of our system, to elect people.
Since in the last year, wedve been asking for the

has, namely quick take and now special provisions with

However, from a different standpoint, and L would say
more procedural questions, I do not think that now is
the time nor the place to add this amendment to this
bill. In other words, what I am saying is that I do not
feel that this amendment is germane to the bill that is
presented before you /or consideration today. What
they're asking you to do at this point in time is to
èompletely change the manner and means that you elect
/eople.. that you have people appointed to.. or elected. )to the North Shore Sanitary District Board when the. whole problem this bill is pointed for, is trying to '
- get it some authority to raise funds so that it can
continue in' existence. I would therefore suggest that ' '
you vote 'no' on this amendment, not because it's a bad '
amendment, but rather because the timing is not good
on this bill and that we allow this bill that would have
give some money app.. ah.. money by way of a referendum

or down. I think it's in order. I think that the member-/

whekher they do not, would agree that the motion is in

Will be happy to hold a meeting immediately after we adjour

J- M Houlihan: ''Mk. Speaker: I wonder if the Chairman of the Revenue
Committee would answer a question. Last week I had a bill
before the committee, House Bill 2272, and T was assured in
front of the committee that that bill would be the first
bill heard and discussed by the committee today. I think
it's arbitrary and I don't think it's in good form to ex-
empt and just have one bill heard. L think all of thosebills should be heard and I would particularly ask you$
.
pbout House Bill 2272.''
Randolph: ''Well, 1 would be Very happy to hear all bills this
evening, but it.. I understand it will be very late. Ah..' -.
- hear your bill, Jim, the very first thing tomorrow morning
when the other members will a1l be there and all of their
bills will be heard at that timeo''
ep. A. Telcser: ''Representative Matijevich, for what purpose
do you rise, sir-'' t
atijevich: ''Mr. Speaker, I have a point of order that's really
goes to the heart of some of our new Rules changes. As you
recall, many of us have been fighting to help the public
who come here at their own expense. They're not paid
lobbyists. They can't afford to be here a1l the time.
They don't have an office downtown. Theyfve got to scrape
up and take off from their jobs to come here. Now, Rule 22,
is titled right to the public. This is our rule, the Body's
rules. Let me read it to you. 'If a bill or resolution
has been properly set for a hearing and witnesses are pre-

hear the witnesses at the scheduled time and place-' I
think we're violàting the rights of these people righthere in the Gallery . They should be heard. What are we
arguing about. They've come here. The 'bills were set.
And evidently somebody said the bills couldn't be héard.What are we arguing about. Let's adjourn if we have to.Recess if we have to. Let the people have their right.
Theydre here, theylre not lobbyists- They're here and!,.
. they ought to have that right under our own House Rule 22.'My point of order is, Mr. Speaker, don't the public have
that right under House Rule 22.'.

do you rise, sir-'l '

W. T. Simms: NMr. Speak. . Ah- Mr. Speaker, Ladies and Gentieme
. of the House, ah.. I rise to concur with the comments of
Representative Yourell and also Representative Matijevich.
I also have bills pertaining to the sènior citizens ah. .
l dealing with tax. relief in the area of disabled and seniorIj citizens and mobile homes and a1l these bills should be 't
heard at the same time. People from Rockford came down her
last week. People that ah.. paid money out of their own
1pocket to travel down and subsequently were denied the op-
portunity to appear before the committee. And all thesè

down, and any other bills that be before the cùmmittee.
Because we have a job to do. Unfortunately, last week wehad *he Rules Committee and the Chairman had to go to the
Rules Committee hearing. However, we should not punish

that we could meet tonight and the Chairman of the Revenue
Committee would hear all bills, especially those ah.. for
the witnesses who came all the way from Chicago and other-
parts of Cook County to be here again with us. Please, in '
a11 decency, allow these people to have their voice to be .
heard on a very vital issue which concerns their livelihood
