VietNow
Viet Nam veterans from the Rockford area were guests Monday. June 27, at the month¬ ly meeting of the McHenry County Chapter of VietNow. Their topic was "A^nt Orange," the toxic hebuide with trace amounts of Dioxin, exposure to which haa belated¬ ly caused serious emotional and physical problems for numbers of Viet Nam soldiers.
The local chapter of VietNow started a year ago as an extension of the founding Rock- • ford chapter. Based on the purpose of "Veterans Helping Veterans," the organization currently has about 60 mem¬ bers representing manv walks of Ufe. Meetings are held regu¬ larly on the fotirth Monday of the month at 7:30 p.m in St. John's Lutheran Church, Wood¬ stock.
WeeUy ra|) sessiona led by
Viet Nam veteran and thera¬ pist Alan Belcher of Wood¬ stock, take place at 8:30 p.m. on Tuesdays at the Court Services Building. There the veterans are encouraged to talk our their shared concerns and problems. For Bob Schreiner of Wood¬ stock, who returned from Viet Nam combat in 1971, these sessions are one of the most helpful programs of VietNow. "We reca«nized that problems existed—Only for 10 years we couldn't talk about them, and now we can." he explained.
Other aims of VietNow are lobbying (or veteran benefits, the ML\-POW program *nd public awareness. 'We just can't let people forget," said vice presiaent Jack Wojewoda of Crystal Lake.
The VietNow chapter march¬ ed as a unit for the first time at the recent Memorial Day par¬ ade in Crystal Lake. "It was a good feeitag," Wojewoda said, "because we felt proud again." Statistics indicate over 60,000 Americans were killed in the Viet Nam conflict, and 60.000 veterans have commit¬ ted suicide since then—three times the national average. "We was people to know there IS free help out there." Wo¬ jewoda assived.
Everyone interested is wel¬ come at the meetings and rap sessions of VietNow. The mail¬ ing address is P.O. Box 825. WoodaUxk, 60098. or call 455- 2810. Dennis Komichowski of McHenry is president.

The citizens of McHenry County want to know the facts about Waste Management, not a self-serving statement of the Company's intentions handed out to k>ca] newspapers last wee, William Franz, Crystal Lake Attomey for the McHenty County Improvement Associa¬ tion, told an audience of dne hundred people in the VUlage of Unk>n Wednesday night.
Speakifig to an audience that included three McHenry County Bpard meml>ers, Franz examin¬ ed point by point the Waste Management "fact riieet" material - released after an appearance before the MCIA Bioard of Directora Tuesday night by Waste Management representatives.
The MCIA attomey said Waste Management offered many intentions and few facts, produced few answers but raised a series of questkms. "They're not tellfaig us for what length of time no hazardoos wastes will be accepted; they are not telling ns what volume ot waste will oome from ootside the Cbunty under their proposal that only 10% will be foreign wa^e. or for how long they wlu limh the hnports to tfaat percentage." Franz said.
As Dick Meyers. Gus Ritter and Robert Vorisdc of the County Board listened, Franz said "Waste Management's track record Is atrocious," and indicated an MCIA position paper on landfUl in McHenry County would be forthcoming shortly. Franz suggested that
the propetty owners' organiza¬ tion probably would opt fcr County ownership iSd ti^ control of a lessee's operation.
McHenry County residents want control of their own destiny, and they don't want f leave that deatfaiy to Sprfaigfteld or some outside oorporatfon tellfaig us what' to do." Fraoz said. The MCIA meetfaig was held fai thc American Legion Hall fat Union, a few mttes from
Products. The winners of the the she of Waste Management's ^ am poo were Rusty Kowalski notice to propcfty owners at and Tracy Evans. McCue Road and iU^way 176.
Waste Managemen's ooro-
ments on lecyding amount to "do it yourseir' at jrour own home, and they conspioously omh any comment on the effect of their requested landfill on the possible pollntfon of the county's underground water supply which oould effect our druiklng water, on tiie value of homes fai the ai^acent subdlvis- k>n, or the effects of the truck traffic on the roads, Franz charged.
Union Jaycee's Vice-Presi¬ dent, John Bruno, presented a check to MCIA in support ofthe organization.
Next week's meeting of the MCU wUI be held fat Crystal Lake, Wednesday night, June 29 at 7:30 p.m. ui the First Unhed Methodist Church, 236 Crystal Lake Avenue with the public faivited.
