Welfare aid in Illinois buys less than in 1970
A UPI report citable by the Chicago Tribune says public welfare grants for a family of four in Illinois lost 53.1 percent of their 1987 purchasing power compared with 1970 as living costs rose. The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a Washington nonprofit, notes the decline is among the worst nationwide and spurs Illinois officials to push welfare reform during Gov. James Thompson’s administration.

Florida officials hunt for prison escapees
FBI and Maryland State Police joined a search for two Florida prison escapees accused of kidnapping 16 year old Ted Siegel and holding him for 11 days in what he called an interesting experience. Siegel was released on a Baltimore street and drove away in his mother’s car as the abductors fled in a stolen vehicle. He credited his captors with his safe release in a Baltimore TV interview.
