W)-A "pain less solution" to state budgei needs which would block a sale! tax increase sought by Gov. Strat ton was proposed today by an Illi nois House Republican leader. The plan was offered by Rep Franklin U. Stransky of Savanna, who described it as an "alternative program by which school needs and other essential needs can be met without new or increased taxes." Stransky is chairman of the House Executive Committee, At the 1953 legislative session, he served as Stratton's GOP floor leader. Stratton has recommended that the state sales tax be boosted one cent for one year to provide an extra 100 million dollars for high er allotments to schools and men tal hpspitals.

The chief feature of Stransky's program, worked out with the Taxpayers Federation of Illinois, was a series of bills to establish a building authority with power to issue bonds for financing construction at educational, welfare and penal institutions. Through this device, he said, appropriations in Stratton's budget amounting to 48 million dollars for new construction could be eliminated from state general fund spending. The Savanna legislator declared there is "not the slightest doubt" but that spending can be held 5 to 10 per cent below amounts set up in the 1955-57 state budget with out impairing or deferring essen tial state services. Stransky agreed with Stratton that a permanent solution to state and local governmental financial problems lies in adoption of a proposed amendment to revise the state Constitution. program for grade school girls be ginning next week, Gruenau said Handicapped Children Aided By Elks Fund The Freeport Elks Club will present a musical benefit show for the Elks Crippled Children's Fund, May 11, 12 and 13 at the Masonic Temple.

Proceeds go entirely for the benefit of crippled children and the funds collected at the musical show will be spent to aid crippled children in this area. The local Elks Club helps support the Illinois State Elks which maintains a crippled children's service at the Illinois Research Hospital in Chicago. Crippled children's work was made the organization's major charitable work at its annual convention in 1928. 69,918 Examinations A commission was formed to'fi- nance and manage the work. Since then, 69,918 examinations have been made with Elks Club support in various Illinois clinics.

Of the total, 4,289 were hospitalized. The University of Illinois cooperated in the work. Periodic clinics are conducted in Freeport through the crippled children's service. A doctor from the Illinois Research Hospital is sent here at Elks expense to conduct the clinic. The clinic is held at the Civic Center in cooperation with the Amity Society.

Four Clinics Held During 1954, 150 children were given attention at the four clinics held in Freeport. The crippled children's fund pays the bills in needy cases for doctors, x-rays, orthopedic lifts, braces, walking splints and transportation to and from Chicago to the research hos pital. In conjunction with this program, swimming classes for the physically handicapped were held in Freeport during 1954 and this year. A summer series of classes began Monday at the YMCA and will run throughout the summer, every Monday. Need Equipment The first series of Elks-sponsored swimming classes was held at the YMCA last summer.

Another was held in the fall and in the spring at the Junior High School pool. Average attendance at the classes ranged from eight to sixteen. The musical show to be pre sented at the Masonic Temple is planned to make money for more adequate facilities, including treatment equipment, according to Robert Pashby, head of the local fund committee. Hydrotherapy, mechanical exercisers and diathermy equipment are especially needed.
