in record time — 44 to 0. Gov. 
Ogilvie is expected to sign the bill,- 
much to the chagrin. of the DuPage 
County Board. 
THE LESSON orien conserva-. - 
tionists can learn from this story 
is that it is important that some 
local issues be made-a ‘‘cause- 
celebre.” Legislative and environ- 
mental victories cannot be won by 
simply and meekly urging your 
fellow club members to. “write 
your legislator.” Mrs. Storke and 
members of the coalition had 
gathered at a neighbor’s home a 
few days before the vote was taken 
cn HB 3741. Each person was asked 
to call five to ten names taken 
from the earlier’ petitions. Post- 
cards with a pre-printed message, 
directed to legislators were made - 
available. Though not recommend- 
ed in all cases, it worked in this 
instance, and doubtful legislators 
were convinced to vote for the bill. 
ONCE IN A WHILE, an issue 
must be joined and fought. with -all 
the power and strength a group or 
coalition can muster. -Public -offi- 
‘cials must be taught that -a con- 
cerned segment of society is- will- 
ing to put up a spirited battle to 
. save its environment and its neigh- 
borhood. Conservation groups must 
learn to mobilize- not only their 
own forces, but to join similar local 
civic groups in a temporary coali- 
tion to become victorious. To win a 
major triumph sometimes means 
that cther minor issues can be won 
_with less effort. 
FINALLY, a campaign of this 
nature needs a dedicated leader. 
Every community can use a Nan 
‘“Storke. Without personal leader- 
ship, without some person assum- 
ing the co-ordination and com- 
mand, a great conservation victory 
can seldom be attained.
