Readers urge blocking cuts to Illinois Central and CTA services citing longer waits and increased congestion. A public hearing, July 24 1973 at City Hall, invites testimony on severity and fairness of the reductions before final action. Gov. Walker grants $12 million state aid to sustain CTA operations through 1973 amid ongoing talks.

Chicago independents win in gerrymander ruling

In a federal decision by Judge Thomas McMillen last week the court found that Chicago ward boundaries aimed to dilute minority voting strength in the 7th ward along the lake front from 71st Street to the Calumet River. The ruling flags one ward as clearly drawn to dilute black voters while others show no proven racial gerrymandering.

Racial Gerrymandering Challenge After 7th Ward Ruling

Judge McMillen based the ruling on numeric disparities between old and new ward maps showing black representation near 33 percent. A Thursday hearing may suggest solutions that could trigger a special election and potentially shift aldermanic representation and campaign dynamics.
