CHICAGO-KENT LAW REVIEW VOLUME 18 DECEMBER, 1939 NUMBER 1 SURVEY OF ILLINOIS LAW FOR THE YEAR 1938-1939' PERSONS MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS L EGISLATIVE and judicial activity in the field of muni- cipal corporations during the past year has produced a considerable amount of material of importance to those per- sons having direct dealings with public agencies. In the leg- islative field further inroads have been made upon the stat- utory debt limitations of various political subdivisions. The 21/2 per cent limitation was removed in the case of school districts constructing or improving and equipping school buildings; 2 and in the case of cities, villages, and incorpor- ated towns, constructing or improving bridges and airport hangars of landing fields.3 A law has also been enacted requiring municipalities to ascertain the prevailing wage rates for all workmen em- ployed upon public construction projects and to specify in the contract documents that such rates must be paid by the contractors to whom public work is awarded." Another act passed by the legislature requires preference to be given on public works projects to resident Illinois laborers who are citizens of the United States or have received their first naturalization papers.

ILLINOIS AND THE RIGHT OF PRIVACY: HISTORY AND CURRENT STATUS by JAY M. HANSON* The bureaucracy of modern government is not only slow, lum- bering, and oppressive; it is omnipresent. It touches everyone's life at numerous points. It pries more and more into private affairs, breaking down the barriers that individuals erect to give them some insulation from the intrigues and harrassments of modern life.' Contrasted to the common law, a constitutionally protected right of privacy from government intrusion was unrecognized a century ago and barely gained judicial discussion by 1928.2 Al- though not explicitly contained within the United States Consti- tution, this right of privacy obtained the recognition of the United States Supreme Court in 19653 and has subsequently blossomed into a fundamental right protected by the Bill of Rights.

SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY UNDER THE 1970 ILLINOIS CONSTITUTION - THE ABOLITION OF A FEUDAL NOTION INTRODUCTION The doctrine of sovereign immunity has traditionally been couched in terms of "The King can do no wrong"; and as this phrase would suggest, the doctrine clearly represents one of the most noteworthy vestiges of feudal notions. How it came to be applied in the United States has been described as "one of the mysteries of legal evolution,"' for the king is an entity for- eign to our mode of government. Nevertheless, the doctrine is found in both the common law 2 and early Illinois constitutions,3 as well as other state constitutions. 4 Despite its constitutional dimension, the doctrine has been uniformly denounced by legal scholars- and subjected to vigorous legislative and judicial at- tacks in recent years.

TITLE Invictus: Five Advocacy Presentations on Educational Fiscal Policy in Illinois Including Material Relating to the Attempt To Establish Education as a Fundamental Constitutional Right in 1992. INSTITUTION Illinois State Univ., Normal. Center for the Study of Educational Finance. PUB DATE Mar 93 NOTE 38p. PUB TYPE Viewpoints (Opinion/Position Papers, Essays, etc.) (120) Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Constitutional Law; *Court Litigation; *Educational Equity (Finance); Elementary Secondary Education; *Equal Education; *Finance Reform; *Public Schools; State Aid; State Courts IDENTIFIERS *Illinois ABSTRACT This monograph contains five presentations delivered during the course of an attempt made in November 1992 to amend the state constitution of Illinois in such a way as to make educationa fundamental constitutional right. The effort failed togarner the 60 percent of the vote required to pass the amendment. These presentations made a strong advocacy case for the amendment's approval. The first presentation was given before a ruralgroup that issued a legal challenge to the state school finance system. The second piece is a written statement presented to the Task Forceon Illinois School Finance. The statement was basedon reports from the task force and is the most specific to Illinois of all of the presentations in this collection. The third presentation outlines the broad philosophical arguments for making educationa constitutional right. The fourth presentation explores questions about whether inequalities in spending at different schools makesa difference in the quality of education. The fifth presentationwas given after the defeat of the constitutional amendment at the polls and the court challenge.

Village of Wilmette/ the Supreme Court blocked upon technical grounds an attempt upon the part of the Village of Wilmette to incorporate within its arid con- fines the tiny oasis of "No Man's Land." This unincorporat- ed triangular tract of some twenty-two acres is wedged in between Wilmette and Kenilworth on the shore of L a k e Michigan. In 1939, the General Assembly passed a "general" statute, actually describing the tract in question by every means short of metes and bounds, authorizing annexation by any contiguous municipality.' The court invalidated the stat- ute upon the sole ground that the subject matter was not included in the title.' One cannot but wonder whether, if the statute had not been invalid for this reason, it would not 1 The present survey is not intended in any sense as a complete commentary upon, or annotation of, the cases decided by the Illinois courts during the past year, but is published rather for the purpose of calling attention merely to cases and developments believed significant and interesting.
