VIEWPOINT IPioneer Press Ii000 WORDS I Jack Higgins Doubts over cigarettes limits go up in smoke With a new Legislature sworn in, it won't be surprising if someone intro- duces a bill to chip away at Illinois' ban on smoking in nearly all public places.

Legislators should resist tinkering with this law. The Smoke Free Illinois Act, which turns five years old this month, has been a big success. After five years of living with the law, most Illinois- ans have found they like it. A poll last month by the American Lung Association in Illinois found 77 percent of state residents favor the law. Even smokers - more than half of them - think it's a good idea. At the time the legislation was debated, oppo- nents feared bars and restaurants might lose so much business they would close. But state Sen. Terry Link, a sponsor of the law, said the Illinois Liquor Control Commission issued 500 more liquor licenses last year than in the year before the ban took effect. Any new opposition to this law should be quickly stubbed out. You've got to know when to letgo
