§ 2. Every person, firm or corporation owning or controlling any cemetery or burial place in this State shall by itself, his or its superintendent or agent, keep a permanent record of the burial of each United States War Veteran or the erection of a memorial marker for any veteran whose remains were not recovered or where buried at sea, such record to contain the name of the veteran, date of death, and the location of grave or memorial marker in cemetery, and when requested so to do, shall report such information to the Department of Veterans' Affairs on forms furnished by the Department. Any person, firm or corporation owning or controlling a cemetery or burial place, who fails to make and file such report within 30 days after receipt of such request is guilty of a petty offense and upon conviction thereof shall be fined not less than $10 nor more than $100. It is the duty of the State's attorney in the county where the cemetery or burial place is located to enforce the provisions of this Act.
