Editorial: Free gifts to public employees should be refused

It cites Royal Chemical Co gift certificates to several state employees and urges strict policies to reject unsolicited gifts to prevent influence and lower prices for taxpayers.

Powell estate settlement ends long tax fight and gives state funds
Attorney General William J Scott disclosed a settlement in the Powell estate suit valuing the late Secretary of State Powell’s $3 million plus holdings. The state is to receive about $1.6 million, with only $100,000 going to the general fund. The remainder funds will be redirected to the Illinois State Historical Society Library and the governor’s mansion renovation, under a charitable trust extension. Estate administrator John Rendieman and Scott hailed the accord as a practical resolution avoiding extended litigation.
