FROM GRAIN BY THE RilSCHMANI OISTILLM NEW YORK: PUINFiELB, IIUNOIS. 80 AND Sept. 30 Deadline for Greenbelt Law Filing Joseph H. Francis, State Commissioner of Agriculture, states that owners of agricultural lands are reminded that Sept. 30th is the final date for filing applications with county assessors for assessment and taxation of agriculture land under the 1969 Farmland Assessment Act, commonly referred to as the Green-be- lt Law. Late filings will be accepted until Nov. 30th, upon payment of a $25 penalty. Commissioner Francis points out that the present law requires annual filings be made including owners that have filed and qualified for this year's assessment and taxation under the Farmland Assessment Act. It is expected that the next session of the Legislature will amend the Greenbelt Law, so that annual filings will not be necessary if land ownership and use have not changed under previous filing. However, unless filings are made this year as required, the land owner will forfeit his right to have his property assessed in 1973 on a basis of use rather than sale value which is the intent of the law, to provide a more realistic property use related to income received from land devoted to agricultural use. The Commissioner suggests that owners of larid which are used for agricultural purposes contact their county assessors, who will provide Ihem with the forms .to be filled jout, and advise them ast to the benefits they may receive fev participating in the program within the respective county in which their lands are located. CARE CORPORATION, 100 PROOF. 01971 F Firearms Policy Council Seeks Action by Nixon and McGovern of the people to be themselves allowed have cowed by these intense, vocal opponents of effective gun control. In fact, from all appearances, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. takes its cue on this issue from 1600 Rhode Island Avenue (the headquarters of the National Association). The Administration knows that over a million highly handguns flow into our society every year, dangerously expanding the pool of firearms to which criminals and other irresponsible elements have easy access. The import channel for such guns was blocked by the 1968 legislation, establishing a protective wall behind which a thriving new industry has developed. But the Administration does not support Congressional efforts to plug the loophole.lt does not support the bill recently passed by the Senate outlawing the production and public sale of Saturday night specials. It has made no sincere effort to offer a substitute proposal. It seems to favor safety criteria rather than sporting purpose as the standard for allowable production of handguns for public use. It thus seems more concerned of handguns for public use. It thus seems more concerned with the safety of the users of these weapons rather than the safety of the people against whom these guns are so often used in criminal attacks. President Nixon and Senator representatives McGovern were urged this week to endorse a fifth freedom freedom from violence to supplement the traditional four. They and all candidates for public office were asked to join the campaign for a safer America by advocating effective controls on the possession of guns, the most violent of weapons. The call came from David J. Steinberg, executive director of the National Council for a Responsible Firearms Policy. The Council advocates strict licensing of gun ownership and strict personal responsibility for the use, possession and transfer of all useable firearms. Pointing to the rising tide of gun crime and the easy accesi-bilit- y of guns to those not qualified to use them responsibly, Mr. Steinberg charged government with inexcusable inertia in the face of this man made plague. He said both the Administration and Congress were subordinating the safety of the American people to the political expediency of appeasing the narrow minded elements of the nation gun owners. Public opinion polls, he said, have long shown strong majority support for strict gun control, even among gun owners. But the citizens, he noted, are not putting political muscle behind the convictions. The following are excerpts of the prepared text: The rifle associations, gun clubs and gun magazines do not A wife usually cant hold a speak for the majority of responsible gun owners.
