Walker also told a wide-rang: ing news conference Wednesday that he has not changed his mind on, supporting the Reservoir project near Decatur; that he is giving Mrs. Mary Lee Leahy a staff position in his administration; and that he hopes for a better relationship with Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley.

Walker said the new state insurance program will be split between Blue Cross-Blue Shield of Chicago and Rockford and Crown Life Insurance Co. of Canada. The firms have a 15- month contract and will replace the old insurer, the Northeastern Life Insurance Co. of New York, Walker said. The governor said Northeastern, be charitable, did not do a very good job (meeting) claims." Will Save Millions The new contracts will save a total of more than $5- million in premiums during the coming year, Walker, said, with $4.77 million saving realized.

by the state. Some benefits will be increased but none will be cut, he said. Walker also said he has known for some time of a report by the Environmental Protection Agency that water in the proposed Oakley Reservoir might not meet quality standards. He said he knew of the report last week when he announced his support for the reservoir project and "that's why I placed the restrictions on my support that I did." Walker said at the time- of his announcement that the project, should not get a final state -ahead unless he is assured go that reservoir water will meet minimum standards. On the subject of his relationship with Daley- -often a rocky one in the -the governor said he plans to have lunch the mayor next week in Chicago.

At that time, he hopes to discuss some of their differ-, ences of opinion, he said. But he declined to describe the appointment -or his confirmation Tuesday of Milton Pikarsky as a board member of the Chicago Transit Authority -as a "thaw" in the relationship. 'Had Our Differences'.

of $30,000 a year. Mrs. Leahy, whose husband also works in the governor's office, will work in the Bureau of the Budget, Walker said. She was denied Senate firmation for the EPA post in a spat over 'her politics and legal background.

Walker Promises Quality Health Care Despite Worker Cut By PAMELA REEVES SPRINGFIELD (UPI) Appearing pl us ed as he stepped into a crowd of booing demonstrators Wednesday, Gov. Daniel Walker picked up a bullhorn and promised to maintain quality care for mental health patients despite cutbacks in the number of mental health workers.re making some changes," Walker said, "but we are doing it with the firm resolve and intent to maintain and prove care for mental patients." The group of 100 demonstrators, which included many mental health workers, listened to the brief talk, but continued to chant against the cutbacks when the governor had finished.

Better Reception Inside Walker received a friendlier reception inside the St. Nicholast Hotel, where he addressed some 500 persons at the 24th annual mental health luncheon. He again defended the cutbacks. He said the number of persons in the state's 27 mental health facilities has declined by almost 12,000 since 1969, but the number of mental health workers has remained about the same. -The personnel cuts being made, he said, will not result in fewer persons taking care, of patients, but will eliminate those who are removed from direct patient contact.

And he said he will appoint a number of ombudsmen to talk to workers. Most of those demonstrating Wednesday were members of the Coalition to Mental Health Cuts.

We want to maintain and improve the level of No-fault Insurance Concept Being Bounced By TOM LAUE SPRINGFIELD (UPI) The battered no fault auto insurance concept is being bounced around the Illinois House, prompting the sponsor of one no fault measure to table his bill and predict in anger that the idea is "dead" this year. Rep. Bernard Eptons, Chicago, blistered his colleagues and branded them "stupid" Wednesday after the House stripped his no fault bill of a requirement that auto wreck victims have at least $500 in medical bills before they could sue for pain and suffering. Fuming Epton chastised House members who accused him of pushing an insurance industry plan and chided others for letting his bill be "gutted" at the second reading or amendment stage. Then Epton tabled his own bill, leaving but one no fault measure still before the House.

But before he did, Epton unleashed a heated attack. "This is not an insurance industry bill. I don't carry water for anybody in this House. When I offer a bill, it's my bill," Epton said. Calls Them Clowns "The clowns who put words in my mouth are going to have to respond from now on," Epton went on, his voice rising.

won't take it from a freshman or a senior." Epton said-later he was particularly irked by novice lawmaker Ronald Griesheimer, fellow Republican from Waukegan, and Rep. James T. Londrigan, Springfield. Londrigan offered the amendment' that wiped out Epton's $500 medical cost requirement. both said this is an intold newsmen.

"It's an outsurance industry, bill, Epton right lie. They (insurance companies) argued against this in committee because they wanted a figure between $1,000 and $3,000 not $500." Epton also said he was amazed at the apathy he said was largely to blame the success of Londrigan's amendment. Of 176 House votes that could have been cast, only 103 were. Londrigan's amendment was adopted, -58-45. did everything but insult each House member personally to get them to pay attention," Epton said, "but even so 'no one knew what they were woting on." Few Pay Attention All during the debate on Londrigan's amendment, a steady from a dozen conversations on the floor all but drowned out the discussion.

Seemingly, scant attention was paid to Epton's remarks. But when a preliminary vote showed Londrigan's amendment succeeding, Epton lost his temper and suddenly others listened. "By this vote -at the amendment stage -the House leaves itself no choice," Epton said. whole idea in committee was to put two concepts on the floor so the entire House could RED WHITE FOOD STORES COMPLETE FAMILY CENTER decide which way to go. you insist on gutting my Epton said, will look exactly like Mr.

Maragos' and I'll be forced to table mine. Epton referred to a bill offered by- Rep. Samuel Maragos, Chicago. His bill, generally favored by lawyers, would impose no requirement of any kind before an injured motorist could sue for pain and suffering. This is the way present law reads.

Bars Some Suits In the Senate, under the sponsorship of President William C. Harris, R-Pontiac, is a no-fault bill that would bar pain and suffering suits until an auto crash victim has been permanently disabled 60 days. means," Epton said, "that if you're a writer with both hands in casts for 61 days, you could probably collect on a pain and suffering But -if you're a lawyer or psychiatrist who uses his brain to make a living, you'd probably have to be insensible to collect." Under Epton's bill before it was amended and tabled, a policyholder could have been paid for medical costs -however high -by his own company, regardless of who caused the accident. If the doctor bills were more than $500, however, the victim could sue for pain and suffering in any amount. If he won, he'd have reimburse his insurance comp a y.

for the amount of his medical bills. But Epton said he doubts any no-fault bill will pass this session some rapid conciliatory steps are taken." Says No Fault Dead the House is willing to kill my bill with only a $500 threshold, what will it do to the tougher Senate bill if it gets over here?" Epton asked. if Maragos' bill gets over there, the Senate will murder it, probably in committee. So I say appears dead this year."
