Since its formation over 50 years ago, the Illinois State police has dedicated itself to service to the public. Law enforcement and accident investigation are not the only responsibilities of state troopers. High on the priority list is providing assistance to motorists- who have mechanical difficulties with their vehicle or simply are in need of information. The state police management information section has been tabulating the types of assistance rendered since January and reports that troopers have documented thousands of incidents which include flat tires, running out of gas, lights, cooling systems, fires, engine failure, and other problems. Since January, troopers providing motorists with assistance have documented the assistance rendered with a motorist assist report.

The trooper providing service must ask for the motorists drivers license to complete this document. This report provides the state police with data that is used to analyze manpower allocation. Such information is necessary to enable the state police to provide improved service by assigning troopers to areas that have highest number of incidents of calls for service.

WHALEN Clerk of the Circuit Court Phone For Appointment hotb SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) -Anyone who bought cigarettes in Illinois between 1967 and 1971 may be eligible for a share of some $3.5 million in court-ordered tax refunds. Filing claims for the refund began this week at the American National Bank in Chicago, the trustee of a special fund from which the refunds will be paid, Richard Guthrie, second vice president, said Wednesday. The refunds, which will be made after the Dec. 15 deadline for filing claims, may amount to $6 to $8 for a person who purchased an average of one pack a day during the period, Guthrie said.

He added, however, that the precise amount refunded will be determine finally by the court. A Circuit Court in Cook County, acting on a suit challenging aspects of the cigarette tax, ordered the Department of Revenue in 1967 to set up the fund, which Guthrie said now contains about $3.5 million. The suit specifically challenged the state's practice of including the cigarette use tax in the price of a package of cigarettes when computing the sales tax. The court subsequently said the computation was an unconstitutional tax on a tax. It or dered the state to make refunds on cigarettes purchased between Jan.

1, 1967, the day the fund was established, and Dec. 1, 1971, when the state revised its method of computing taxes. Last month the court approved a claim form and method of publicizing the refund. Notices were published Monday in newspapers throughout the state, and claims began arriving at the bank shortly thereafter. "We have not received enough to be able to tell how many it will be," Guthrie said.

"Your guess is as good as mine. There are a lot of cigarette smokers in the state." Claim forms may be obtained at most banks throughout the state and should be mailed to the American National Bank in Chicago, Guthrie said. The form asks the claimant's name, address, social security number and estimated average monthly cigarette purchases during the period. "We've attempted to keep the form as simple and straightforward as possible," he said. The court must process all claims before any refunds are drawn from the fund, but "we hope early next year to get an order from the court to start making the refunds," Guthrie said.

He admitted that it would be difficult to prove or disprove an average claim, for example, one pack a day. "But any false statements made in the claim form can subject the claimant to contempt of court or other penalties," he said. Computers will be used to make sure claims with duplicate names or addresses are not filed, Guthrie said. Your Smile is Our Success Phone 672-0243 1712 N. Shabbona Streator Ode 11 Briefs Mr.
