(15 ILCS 515/5) (from Ch. 130, par. 19c2)
Sec. 5.
The moneys held by the State Treasurer pursuant to the Act of
Congress cited in paragraph number 4a of Section 1 of this Act shall be
allocated and accredited to each county in which lands acquired by the
United States for flood control, navigation and allied purposes have been
leased by the United States in the proportion that the revenue received by
the United States as rental in each county bears to the total revenue
received by the United States as rental in all the counties in Illinois as
the same is determined by the Secretary of the Treasury and certified by
him to the State Treasurer, except that when such leased lands are situated
in more than one county the distributive share to the counties in which
such lands are located shall be proportional to the area of such leased
lands in the counties affected. The amount so accredited to each county
shall be paid by the State Treasurer to the county treasurer thereof and
such amount shall be appropriated and used as the county board may direct.
