Peoria Finds
Wormy Water
PEORIA. 111. m Repulsive as
they my be, says a scientist, the
worms found in Peoria's drinking
niter merely add "a little more
protein" to the diets of consumers.
Residents of the eastern third of
this city of 112.000 population have
been complaining recently of find
ing white wigglers up to three
eighths of an inch in length in
their tap water.
Dr. Max Suter of the Illinois
Water Survey said yesterday that
the worms are larvae of small
flies with the scientific name
"chlronomous" which hatched
the city's open reservoir.
"They are completely harm
less," said Dr. Suter.. "Stimuli.
cally speaking, they just constitute
a littlf more protein in the diet
aud will harm no one."
Officials of the Peoria Water
Works Co. also said the larvae
are harmless. Nonetheless, they
said water pipes in the eastern
section of the city are beinK
flushed in an effort to get rid of
the worms.
There was no explanation of why
the eastern section. About 150.000
persons in the entire city and
suburbs are served by the same
supply.
Virgil M. Lambert, an insur-
ance agent, said he first noticed
the worms in his tap water about.
two weeks ago. He found that
neighbors had the same problem
and notified the water company.
He said company officials weren't
too concerned about the situation
then.
The officials themselves re
ported the worm infestation and
their efforts to curb it yesterday
alter the Peoria Journal-Star
joined the complainants. Employ
es of the newspaper found worms
in water trom a tap in the paper's
photographic darkroom.

mission from the property owner,
or without getting r state license.
Stale Labor Commissioner Nor
man O. Nilsen, who administers
the new law regulating outdoor ad
vertising, has ruled that political
signs come under the law.
This means that a fee of 50 1
cents to S3 will have to be paid
for every sign visible from a road
outside of an incorporated cily.
The fees will have to be paid by
Hie candidate or his campaign
committee.
MINIMUM CHARGE
Nilsen's men are supposed to
charge a minimum of S25 for every
unlicensed sign that they remove.
If the person who puts up the sign
Is hauled into court, he can be
fined up to (50.
When the 1955 Legislature passed
this law, It never dreamed it would
apply to political signs. But Nilsen
says the law clearly affects them.
Nilsen will write to every can-

didate for slate or county office to
warn them.
Thomas C. Current, assistant to
Nilsen. is trymg to enforce the
signboard regulations. He says his
office doesn't have any intention
of arresting every candidate who
lias an unauthorized or unlicensed
sign.
The reason is that it couldn't be
done. Nilsen's department is hav
ing enough trouble enlorcing the
law now. That'a because the Leg
islature didn't appropriate any
money for enforcement of the law.
Consequently, enforcement now
is being done as a part-time ac
tivity of Labor Department men
who are assigned to other jobs,
such as making electrical inspec
tions. Nilsen is going to ask the Slate
Emergency Board for permission
to spend the sign license fees for
enforcement.
THE LAW
Generally, the law says that
signboards must be 300 to 1,000
feet apart, depending on the size
of the signs and the type of road
Annual tees of 50 cents to $3 must
be paid for each sign, and outdoor
advertising companies pay an ad
ditional yearly fee of $25 to $100.
So far. 2.100 signs owned by out
door advertising companies have
been licensed, and only 705 mm
vidually owned slans.
The deadline for licensing was
Feb. 1, but Current thinks thai
hundreds of signs remain ua
licensed.
For example, in the 21-mile

repealed dally, 79o
stretch between Hubbard and Sa
lem on Highway 9SE, Current
counted 91 unlicensed signs the
other day.
Fifteen signs already have been
licensed on the Portland-Saleni
Expressway.
Those signs that cover the whole
side of a barn arc a problem. Cur-
rent says these come under the
law. Rut what should he do about
It if the farmer refuses to take out
a license? Current could either
tear the barn down or repaint It,
but either method Is conslocreci too
drastic.
SOME HARDSHIPS
Current says the law works
some hardships.
He told about a woman who has
run a melon stand on an Eastern
Oregon highway for years. She has
had her big signs in the sagebrush
alcng the highway.
She can't get her signs licensed
until she gets permission of the
owner of the land. She can't ftnd
out who owns that sagebrush, so
she can't put up any signs this
year.
"The key thing right now," Cur
rent savs, "Is to let the politicians
know about the law so they won't
be embarrassed politically or fi
nancially. II we have to pull down
some signs, we'll be accused of po
litical favoritism, and we want to
avoid that.
"Another point to remember is
that no sign can be licensed unless
the property owner gives written
permission."
