    AN ACT concerning government.

 
    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, 
represented in the General Assembly: 



 
    Section 5. The Time Standardization Act is amended  by 
changing Section 1 as follows:
 



    (5 ILCS 440/1)  (from Ch. 1, par. 3201)



    Sec. 1. At two o'clock ante meridian of the second last 
Sunday in March April of
each year, the standard time in this 
state shall be advanced one hour,
and at two o'clock ante 
meridian of the first last Sunday in November October of each

year the standard time in this state shall, by the retarding of 
one
hour, be made to coincide with the mean astronomical time 
of the ninety
degrees of longitude West from Greenwich, the 
standard official time of
which is described as United States 
standard central time, so that
between the second last Sunday 
of March April at two o'clock ante meridian in each
year and 
the first last Sunday in November October at two o'clock ante 
meridian in each
year the standard time in this state shall be 
one hour in advance of the
United States standard central time: 
Provided, however, that nothing in
this act shall be so 
construed as to be in contravention of any federal
law or 
authorized order of the Interstate Commerce Commission with

respect to the time zones of the United States. And in all 
laws,
statutes, orders, judgments, rules and regulations 
relating
to the time of
performance of any act of any officer 
or department of this state, or of
any county, township, city 
or town, municipal corporation, agency or
instrumentality of 
the state, or school district or school authority or
relating 
to the time in which any rights shall accrue or determine, or

within which any act shall or shall not be performed by any 
person
subject to the jurisdiction of the state, and in all the 
public schools
and in all institutions of the state, or of any 
county, township, city
or town, municipal corporation, agency 
or instrumentality of the state
or school district or school 
authority, and in all contracts or choses
in action made or to 
be performed in the state, it shall be understood
and intended 
that the time shall be the time prescribed in this section.

    If the date on which time is to be advanced one hour, the 
date on which time is to be retarded one hour, or both, as set 
forth under Section 260a of the federal Uniform Time Act of 
1966 (15 U.S.C. 260a), as now or hereafter amended, renumbered, 
or succeeded, differs from either or both of those dates as set 
forth under this Section, then the dates set forth under the 
federal law shall control and shall apply in Illinois, 
notwithstanding the dates set forth in this Section.
