JOINT COMMITTEE ON PESTICIDES 
IN THE LAST ILLINOIS Legislature, a joint committee composed of 
members of the Illinois Audubon Society, Illinois Federation of Sports- 
men’s Clubs, and the Izaak Walton League, nearly succeeded in obtaining 
passage of a pesticides control bill. This group has been reorganized as 
“The Illinois Pesticide Control Committee.” I.A.S. Vice-President Elton 
Fawks is chairman. The committee is planning a vigorous campaign 
to pass legislation which will provide for investigations of the effects of 
wholesale application of chemicals on wildlife. Members and local groups 
desiring more information should write to Mr. Elton Fawks, Route 1, 
Box 112, East Moline, III.
