Red Cross Fund Effort One-Fourth Toward Goal Prince Edward's Rea Cross drive needs a biood trtmsf usion. The month-long campaign with a goal of $4 125. has reached slightly past the 25 per cent mark with the month 75 per cent gone. W. H. Burford, drive chairman, reported Thursday that donations to date totalled about SI.250. Of the total S1000 came from the special gift^ division. Throughout this area, donations to the Red Cross are behind last year's totals, a Red Cross repre sentative said last week. Locally, church and hospital drives arc cutting into the Red Cross. Burford is relying upon tlie roc Sen. Byrd Says Virginia No. i NAA(T Target U. S. Senator Harry F. Byrd said this week Virginia has be come the number one target of forces seeking integration. Byrd, in an interview with a re porter for tlie Richmond News Leader, said the federal govern ment and the National Assn, for tlie Advancement of Colored Peo ple NAACPi mean to "try to brin;..' Virginia to her knees first." "I think it's time all the Vir gin a people knew if they don't already know it- -that they are going to try to break us down first in the South. Byrd said. The .interview preceded a talk" before a civic club. t ills Drastic Measures Byrd said that no where else in the South are forces favoring in tegration resorting to measures as drastic as those they are bringing to bear in Virginia. "They’re making the drive on us first." lie said. "They want to break us down first because of our prestige and leadership with the rest of the South." He urged Virginia to continue a course of "passive resistance" and commended Gov Thomas B Stanley and the supporters of the governor s "no integration" pro as 'll tlie General Assembly. Rcierscd Itself Byn! said the U, S. Supreme Court had reversed lt.srll once on 'tie segregation issue and "if we show ’.tie proper fortitude.-, then there is always the possibilty that if the court reverses itself once, it w dl reverse itself again." Five desegregation suits brought by tlie NAACP have reached fed eral courts in Virginia. Arlington County and Charlottesville have asked the U. S. Supreme Court to hear an appeal from district'court orders requiring desegregation by ord of the Red Cross and his drive assistants to put the drive over the top. a top Si”2 higher than that of 1956.

Supervisors Disagree With Consulting Engineers on Secondary Road Fund (nit Pass Resolution Ur«inir Holding Of Present Share Emphatic wants of their con stituents who drive over rural roads don't jibe with a prominent voice being heard in Virginia just now recommending a change in the amount of highway funds ai lotted the Secondary System, the Prince Edward county board of supervisors finds. To show without equivocation ! just where they stand in this is I sue facing Virginia, the supervis j ors late last week unanimously adopted a resolution which, in cf" feet, demands: no change in pres ent methods of dividing funds among the Primary Secondary and Urban icity, town streets' systems. Under the present Virginia law. that system guarantees a mini mum of 30 per cent of all highway ; money, state and federal, to the | Secondary System. Grass Roots View S:nce it. is from that distribu j tion that counties are allotted ; their annual funds to improve the ' county roads, boards of sqpcrvis ! ors are opposed to any more that i might mean a cib in money. They i are too close to the audible de mands asked of them in their very own districts. The voice being heard in Vir ginia is that of technical engineers of the firm of Parsons. Brineker hoff. Hall and MacDonald. New York consulting firm, which was employed to study the Virginia highway system and make recom mendations. The engineers have reported their findings to the Virginia Ad visory Legislative Council, during public hearings, that existing methods of fund distribution are "completely inequitable with re spect to needs" and that . . . con tinuation of present laws and pol icies can only result in the devel opment of a Seriously unbalanced road plant." One of the inequities, they feel, is that the secondary road sys stems share is now bigger than needs justify, in relation to needs of the other major divisions. Prince Edward supervisors Fri day replied to that contention with this unanimous resolution: "That we are firmly of the opinion that in order to establish, construct and maintain a system of Secondary highways in this state, sufficient to carry the traf fic to which they are subject, there should be no reduction in the proportion of highway funds allotted to the Secondary Sys tem."

Pattern In Using $44,600Ford Grant With its $44,600 Ford Foundation grant of which the second and final payment of $22,300 was made March 15, Southside Community -Hospital's board of managers will do what other grant recipients plan in the greatest proportion-— contract for new construction to provide beds for more pa tients A Foundation statement, based on reports received from grantee hospitals, shows new building to be the most needed method of putting the money to work. Sec ond greatest use will be moderni zation of existing plants and the purchase of new equipment. Southside Hospital use*of the money provides contemplated ex penditures combining these two most popular usages, with the greater share here going toward new construction, or completition of the second floor of the Mettau er Wing. 54 Receive Funds The area hospital here is one of the 54 Virginia institutions re ceiving grants, which were com puted on the basis of patient days of service and the number of births in each hospital. The Virginia institutions shar ed $2,657,200 provided by the Foundation. The total throughout the U. S. amounts to $200 millions to improve and extend commun ity hospital services in the 48 states, Alaska. Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The necessity of adding to the Ford Grant and to Hill-Burton Act federal funds through local "matching" giving will accom plish here exactly what the Ford Foundation hopes Its contributions will do—strengthen basic Ameri can institutions and Encourage Wider Public Support of Them. Henry T Heald, president of the Ford Foundation, writes in the statement. "It is increasingly clear that the Job of providing adequate hospitaf care for our citizens is far too big for any one agency or organization Its accomplishment depends on how well these needs are understood by private citizens and organizations and on their willingness to contribute ideas, time and financial support to the joint community effort. Foundation’s Aim "If the Foundation grants help stimulate such local initiative, they will have accomplished their purpose.” The Foundation says that pop ulation increases and advances in medical science are training the facilities of community hospitals. Also that expenses of construction and operation have contributed to a climb of 132 per cent in the cost of hospital care from 1946 to 1956. At Southside Hospital the board of managers today i Thursday will receive bids on completion of tlie top floor of the new Mettauer wing, heretofore used on the first floor, but only roughed in in the second. By this construction and alter ations to older parts of the. hos pital. the institution will be en larged to a 100-bed functional unit and get a new obstetrical ser vice and patient section. Southside Hospital has been au thorized a maximum of $104,500 J. n. Wail,_Jr„ Klectod President Cut Allocations Or Dip Into Reserve Fund fssue Faces New Chest Officers J. B. Wall. Jr..

James, administrator of Southside Community Hospital, announced today that the hospit al had received official notice from the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals to ihe effect that the local hospital is fully accredited for the next three years, or until further no tice. Tlie Accreditation Commission is a joint commission sponsored by the American College of Physici ans. American College of Sur geons, American Hospital Associa tion American- Medical Associa tion, and the Canadian Medical Association. Tlie Commission has the re sponsibility of inspecting and re viewing the proceedures and re cords of hospitals in the United States and Canada to determine their acceptability. Their objctive is to( improve the medical service of the hospitals in the two coun tries. in the Virginia share of Hill-Bur ton funds, which must be supple mented by local funds on a 60-40 matching basis. Matching Required The Ford grant will be used to make up part of the local match ing fund, but more will be requir ed for the Jvlcttauer completion project, and other alterations, ex pected to total in the vicinity of $200,000. The construction must be uir der contract by April 1 if the hos pital is to qualify for the Hill Burton share. A public subscrip tion drive for funds to augment the other two sources will be launheed this month or in early April, according to the plans of the board of managers. How much the local asking must be will depend on the contract bids received today. The managers will meet in special session to night to act on the bids.

Movie Guide Prepared b.v Farmville Woman's Club motion picture committee. State Theater "The Secret Affair"—This is a farce-comedy in which the military mind is satirized along with radio and weekly news magazines. The General is played by Kirk Douglas and Susan Hayward is the adept comedienne as Dottie Peale. The picture is amusing for adults and sophisticated young people, but is not for children. "The Quiet Gun"—Forrest Tucker is sheriff of a small Western town who straggles to quiet the citizens aroused against a local rancher. No one knows, at first, that the man responsible for the trouble wants the rancher's land. The show is good of a kind for adults and-young people. "Written on the Wind"—is an adult film. A self-made millionaire turns from his spoiled son to de late to importance a poor boy of an employee. While th? film sticks to the theme, it has something valid to say, but it goes overboard by having the neglected son. as well as his sister, frustrated. Rock Hud son plays the favored employee's son and Lauren Bacall is compas sionate as the girl who marries the rich sop then falls in love with Hud son. I.ee Theater “Seven Men From Now"—A form e~ sheriff of Silver Springs tracks down seven outlaws responsible for a Wells-Fargo robbery in which his wife was killed, with Randolph Scott and Gail Russell. For adults and young people. "A Woman's Devotion"—w i t h Ralph Meeker and Janice Rule is good for adults and mature young people. A devoted young wife of a battle-shocked man tries to save him from a murder charge. The set ting is Acapulco, Mexico. The per formances have life and interest one might wish the plot were as well sustained as mood and atmos phere. "A Kiss Before Dying"—A G.I. college student kills his pregnant fiancee, fearing her disinheritance by her wealthy father, and plans to marry another girl. For adults only. Robert Wagner, who is always cast as an all-American boy. is chillingly convincing in the role. SIDELINE VIEWS By JOHN STF.C'K THE BUCCANEERS’ SHORT STAY AT VPI w;v no discredit to tlie lads on the squad toi to Coach bill IIupp A . events moved swift ly mnd ruthlessly, as always for District :rs representative! to Way nesboro’s claiming the Group II .tab- itle they proved that Buck ingham’s turn came in a bad year. W'e say ’ bad” advisedly, meaning a year in which the calibre of the state tournament teams was probably at an all-tune high. Almost all the existing records were written in a welter of fine individual and team scoring. Bob Sondej’s new record for a single game 34 points—in the Churchland win over Buckingham in the opening round lasted ex actly 24 hours until Clint wood’s 6'2" pivot man. Kelly Sutherland, bucketed 37 against Waynesboro. And so it went all through the tourney. It was only the second tintfe that a team other than a South western Virginia squad won in the 11 runnings of the big show The ether, like Waynesboro, a District 5 squad, was Harrisonburg in 1952. The result probably indicates that the Valley of Virginai is grow ing in basketball prowess as it grows in industry and population. The probable ranking in ability in schoolboy basketball area-wise in Vir ginia is. m order, the Southwest, the Valiev Tidewater. Central and Northern. It is too much to hope, except perhaps for some rare' future oc casion. that District 3 can compete qn an equal basis with the squads reaching the tournament The competing schools are too large, they have larger, more diversified coaching staffs and well established grade school, freshman, junior varsity and. of course, varsity pro grams working for them. Perhaps the best service performed for District 3 for the annual disappointment experienced by our lads at VPI consists of: «1 > re minding us that if we want to be a basketball power, we’ve got a lot of work and development ahead, and 12 > a nice, if rather disconcert ing reward for the District 3 team winning the district tournament. C hurch League Bound to Help I hose who nave iiad a hand boys' and girls' Farmville Church League teams in action this bas ketball season are of one opinion: the early start is bound to strengthen basketball here. It is the extra years of exper ience that helps weld a boy and a ball into a coordinated passing and shooting mechanism. The Re creation Association's: program, backed up by the churches, will trigger that mechanism, for later when those youngsters report to the high school coaches. Grade Wallace, the University of South Carolina whiz who cap tured the American collegiate scoring race this year, came from a tiny hamlet in Kentucky. So tiny the mighty University up Lexington way entirely overlooked the youngster, who jumped to a neighboring stale to play. But you can bet a big dollar, if it's not against your conscience, that Grady Wallace had a lot of that early start just like the Farmville youngsters had this year. Basketball ability, like a bank account, takes time. in supporting, or watcmng, me OU ECH LEAGl'E ACORNS Mean High School Oaks Side Line Shorts Here and There: Besides local, consumption on the sandlot, high school and col lege levels, baseball inns here will have two local heroes to watch in the big time diamond show: Paul Cave, of New Canton, in Triple A classification, and Appomattox's Crawford "Miff Davidson, who is now with San Diego "Padres" in) the Pacific Coast League. Last year with the Chattanooga "Lookouts." Davidson had one of his best, years, topping the Southern Association in RBI's with 119 and swatting at a .282 pace, including 23 home runs. Out at Hampden-Sydnev. where the expectation is for a stand out squad in the college race, two FHS products, George Rickman and Gerald Duncan, will add zest to the sideline season for local fans. WEENIE MILLER'S contention that Mt. St. Mary's, the king pin in the Mason-Dixon basketball conference, could hold its own in the Southern Conference, seemed to be verified when the Mounts whipped Villanova <86-70’ the other day—a team which took Rich mond by several points just before the Southern Conference tourna ment. The Mounts have whipped City College of New York and North Carolina College <106-88’ while steadily advancing in the current NCAA Small College Tournament. COLLEGE FOOTBALL COACHING CHANGES continue to be announced, the last two concerning Hampden-Sydney opponents, Emory and Henry and Western Maryland. Robert J. Waldorf, of Falls Church and formerly a success at Washington-Lee High School at Arlington, takes over for the resign ed Charles W. Havens at Western Maryland. Waldorf played at Missouri under the coaching of Don Farout. William H Bailey, formerly head coach at Alcoa. Tenn., High School, takes over at E. & H. He is a graduate of East Tennessee State College, with a M. E. degree in pnysical education at Mississip pi. Both have outstanding reputations as high school coaches.

Virginia Entered as second-class matter at the postoffice at Farmville, Virginia, under Act of Congress of March 3, 1879 FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 1957 Simple Mathematics CT) long as the people of the United States ^ demand paternalistic card from the Federal government, .just, so lopg will they pay into the coffers of the Federal govern ment the major portion of their earnings. It is simple mathematic*—arithmetic. The Federal government gets the [funds from taxes placed upon the people. Federal re ceipts for other sources are inconsequent ial. Therefore, the more you demand, the more you pay. Federal income taxes, to say nothing of state income taxes, are becoming confisca tory. Take the example of Charles \ an Doren, the New York $4.500-a-Vear teacher who recently won, by his skill and know ledge, $129,000 on a TV quiz program. Aft er paying his Federal income tax he will have left $28,195. Not many people are fortunate enough to make $1?9,000, or to keep $28,195, but it is impressive to every one who saw the TV show that income tax es are out of proportion. Evejn those who have an income of $3,000 pay 20 percent, and above that figure 30, 40, 50, up to 90 percent. What incentive is there for an ambitious person, who knows that a major portion of his earned income will be taken in taxes? How long can this continue in a free nation? The way to slop it is to cut) the annual federal budget, to reduce expenditures, subsidies, foreign aid and unnecessary de fense expenses. To achieve this condition the people must speak, write their congress men, and demand a paring of unessential expenditures. This is being done and for the first time in some years Congress is becoming a bit more economy iminded. Senator Harry F. Byrd, as in his custom is about to present the Byrd Budget to Con gress. It will show savings of approximately $5.5 billion. If this can be achieved, and the outlook this year is more favoijable, two ef fects can result. First, a portion of the savings can he used to reduce I the national deb: and a portion used in tax reductions. Or, as we would approve, use the entire amount for the reduction of the national debt. We know little about high finance, but we do feel that our generation is re sponsible for the huge national debt and would have the obligation of paying off as much as possible to bring the debt within reasonable limits. Mr. Byrd is a perennial advocate of re duction of unessential expenditures. He has Stood almost alone in his fight for the past 30 years. Now listen to the words of another Senator, a new senator, Frank J. Lausche, of Ohio, and we quote: “Under its expanding programs of feder al aid, it (federal government) is obtain ing control over the operation of local and state governments. With control of the purse strings, the federal government con trols the liberties of the citizenry of our country.” Senator Lausche suggested three areas in which spending must be controlled. 1. Stop the federal government from en tering into governmental services which be long historically and logically to local and state governments. 2. Eliminate from the foreign aid pro gram those grants in which there is doubt that the results produced will not be as contemplated. "We are mistakenly attempt ing to buy loyalty and support which seem ingly cannot be done”. 3. Discontinue “pork barrel demands" under which congressmen and senators ex change votes to obtain approval of projects which could not succeed on their own mer its. On the subject of inflation. Senator Lausche said, “The diminishing value of pensions, retirement pay, annuities and savings of the modest citizen, because of inflation, is a blow from which he retreats completely stunned, learning that what he believed to be a nest egg has dwindled con siderably.” Mr. Byrd has a supporter in Senator Lausche. These two practical men know that 2 and 2 still make 4, and it cannot be otherwise. More men in Congress like these two senators will make a difference in the future of this nation. IJesure And Accidents 'I'MIK dollar cost of accidents in this coun try is rising. One reliable estimate puts last year’s total cost at the staggering fig ure of $10,000,000,000. This total includes damages!, benefit pay mem. . loss of pay, loss of production, doc tor ami hospital bills with perhaps half of the total being chargable to highway mis haps. With the heavy-travel season just now getting underway for 1057, there are those who are fearful of what this year's accident toll will he. While some safety officials pin their hopes for reducing the motor vehicle toll to the new national-highway building pro gram, others fear that the increase in the driver population and the number of mo tor vehicles on 1he highways twill cause the accident figures to climb even higher. Motor vehicle fatalities in 1956 brought a record 15,000 life insurance! death claims, with payment amounting to approximately •>07.000,000. This was 15,000 more claims and $7,000,000 more in benefits than was paid in the preceding year. Hut however high the economic and hu man loss from injuries and death from mo tor vehicle accidents, the lots from other types oi accidents has also risen. On-the job accidents cost industry and workers about $•'!..>00.000.000 last year, according to figures released by the American Mutual Liability Insurance Company of Boston. Oif-the-joh accidents cost much more — nearly $7,500,000,000 with highway acci dents being included in loot Ip categories. Increased liesure time ajid higher in come.- enable more people tjo travel these daw- -all too oiten into danger. The fact that so many workers seem th sustain more accident., causing time and production loss while away irom their jobs than while at work has caused a number of companies to set up safet.v clauses, urging precautions a: recreation, around the hofne and on the ' road. It is both interesting, and alarming, to note how the institute's estimate of $lo, 000,000,000 accident cost, which is termed “a total economic loss,” compares with the outlook for Federal and state-highway con struction this year, whiqh is expected to cost taxpayers $11,000,000,000, but not a “total” loss. 200 Million By 1967 THE Census Bureau reports that the pop ulation of the United States has now passed the 170,000,000-mark and the total is increasing every day. The latest survey shows that population in this country only recently passed 170, 000,000, after increasing 19,000,000 in the last six years. This is an enormous increase and explains the prediction of the Census Bureau that the population will reach 200, 000,000, representing another increase of 30,000.000. within ten years. l ake the year, 1956, for example. In that year, there were 4,200,000 births and only 1.600.000 deaths. Then, there was a gain of 300.000 immigrants—an unusually large number—which added up to a total gain of almost 3,000,000 for the year. This is an astounding rate of growth, and means that the United States may catch up with Russia in the population category, in the not unforseeable future. The Russian population is not increasing as fast as ours’ although it is estimated that there are more than 200,000,000 Rus sians in the U.S.S.R. today. The United States is expected to reach that figure in less than ten years, and it may well be that in a fen’ decades, our population will be approximately equal. China, however, remains the colossus of all nations in the population category, with an estimated 600,000,000 people. Democracy in the United States will work better when more citizens are inter ested in the general walfjare and less inter ested in private profit. r. - —i Background Scripture: Matthew 2'A Devotional Reading: Isaiah 29:11-16 _ *_ Hypocrites Lesson for Marrh 24, 1037 ' | "HE word “hypocrite” can be thrown around recklessly. Some one asked Dr. VV L. Lingle once why there are so many hypo crites in the church. His reply was that there are really not so many as some people think. The church, he says, is full of half-way Chris tians. stupid Christians, ignorant ana w e a k Christians, even 2'd% Chris tians. But a gen uine hypocrite is a person who is bad and knows it, and pretends to be good in or der to conceal his badness. Such persons, msmm mm Dr. Foreman says Dr Lingle, are few. How ever. we should not sit back and suppose that all the hypocrites were Bible characters. Still less should any one imagine that to day all the hypocrites are in the church People who are at least temporary hypocrites can be found all around us. Perhaps in us! Family Hypocrites We don't have to go to church to be hypocrites We can practice right at home, and some of us do all too well at it The word originally meant simply "actor." We are all hypocrites when we act better than we know we are: or when our preachments fly at a higher level than our practice When Father gives the children a lecture on honesty, the very day when he sells a piece of real estate for more than he knows it is worth, when he spanks the children for losing their tempers— but doesn't spank them till he has lost his own: when Mother tells the children at fable to be patient, though she wouldn't wait in line at the post office but squeezed in out of turn; or when she greets the vi.-iting Mrs. Jones like a long-lost sister, only to say before the visitor gets in to her car. that she hopes that bore never comes again; Father and Mother are being play-actors. Even the children may be play acting when they take their par ents' lectures or discipline as if they heard every word and meant to do better next time, when all the while they are thinking about something else; and they may be terrible little hypocrites about school—how mean the teacher is. and how all the children pick on me. and so on. Business Hypocrites Dwight L. Moody admitted the church harbors a good many hypo crites, but—he said - there are a lot more outside the church. There are indeed. Take business for in stance. Listening to the high priests of big business in Ameri ca, reading the advertisements, the man from Mars might take it seriously and believe that the main object of business is serv ice The jolly fellowship at lunch eon clubs might be taken in the same way; how can these people be deadly rivals? The answer is, they aren't. The club rules allow admittance of only one person from each “classification." But in each classification the man may be a ruthless rival of other men in the same line not in this club. And as for service, it is quite true this is an aim of busi ness, but the aim is making mon ey. Even men in “professions" which have a long and honorable record of service, may be there for the simple reason that there is more money in it than in anything else they would find con genial. When a town finds itself year after without a resident doc tor or minister simply because it is a town of poor people, the citi zens are a little dubious about the "Service" professions. Hypocrites in Church Which brings up the kind of hypo crites who drew Jesus' fire—the hypocrites in church. Aren't we all hypocrites when we tip our heads back and sing. "Jesus, 1 my cross have taken, all to leave and follow thee”—when we decline even the small oppor tunities for service the church offers us'.’ Isn't a minister a hypo crite when he exhorts his people to virtues which in his position are very easy but which he would rind pretty hard if he were in their place? (Temperance, for in stance.) Isn't the church member a hypocrite who hastens to dust off the Bible when she sees the minister coming up the front walk? Isn't the churchman a hypocrite who is extra careful of his language around the preacher? And aren't we all hypocrites when we pray, "Thy Kingdom come.” — and back the prayer up with one thin quarter"’ < Biased on outlines copyrighted bv the Division of Christian Education.

BRADSHAW Samuel Tilden Habel, now the pas tor of the Baptist Church in Chapel Hill. N C , will be well remembered in Farmville Herald territory as the son of the honored minister of the same name, who from 1920 until 1947 was pastor of the field of Union. Piedmont, and Sandy Creek Baptist Churches in Amelia County. H:s brother, the Rev. Nathaniel B. Habel, is now pastor ut the Baptist Church at Victoria. This book represents the meeting of two different purposes and in tents About a year ago Dr. Habel delivered in Chapel Hill a series of lectures on the apostles, a series so well received that he was urged to publish the lectures in book form. On the other side of the picture, Charles Creighton of Fort Lauder dale. Fla., and R. C. Boyce of Greensboro. N. C.. who own the only complete set of the celebrated Meissen statues of the apostles by the German sculptor, Handler, want ed an authoritative souvenir booklet to offer for sale where the statues are on permanent display, at Creigh orfs Restaurant in Fort Lauderdale. F’la. Mr. Boyce and Dr. Habel were brought together by a mutual friend. Temple Barnard, who knew the wishes of both, and the happy result is this excellent and informative book. Although the book is compara tively short, it is thorough and scholarly. It contains the informa tion given in the New Testament about the apostles, supplemented by data from credible tradition. Thus it gives as full and as clear a portrait of the apostles, especially the lesser known ones, as one could expect to find. De. Habel has ar ranged an interesting classification the Obscure Four 'Bartholomew, Simon Zelotes, Jude and Mantes the Less-, the Practical Four Philip, Matthew. Andrew and Thomas', and the Big Four James. John. Peter .and Paul'. In addition to these are chapters on Matthias, chosen by lot to succeed Judas whom Dr. Habel regards as only a temporary re placement. and Judas Iscariot. Of great value to the student of the Bible are several general studies of the apostolic band, the importance, names and characteris tics of the apostles; the apostles in art; and the Apostles’ Creed.

The banker's son in the Army in Korea, confronted with a family emergency, has the same access to the Red Cross field director’s serv ices as his fellow-soldier, the share cropper's son Their mothers facuig serious surgical operations, have the same right to receive Red Cross collected blood The industrialist whose home is blasted by a tornado may join his humblest employee in 1 a Red Cross shelter. There is something in the Red i Cross for everyone. Those who are fortunate enough not to need its emergency services may avail themselves of its very useful- -and i free—courses in first aid. water : safe*v, and home nursing.

New High In Farm Living and Costs of Production Reached A new all-time high in farm living and production costs was reached in February, according to the U S. Department of Agriculture's parity index. D. U. Livermore, agricultur al economist at VPI, explains that the parity index is the index of prices paid by farmers for goods and se: vices, including interest, taxes, and wage rates. February costs rose one per cent frem January, and were five per cent above a year earlier. Meanwhile, prices received by farmers dropped two per cent dur ing the month, but stood three per cent above a year earlier. Declines were noted in prices for hogs, to matoes. lettuce, milk, and potato* and the declines were not offset by higher prices for oranges, chickens, and some vegetables. Thus, Livermore says, the cost price squeeze tightens its grip, forc ing fanners to look for wavs to re duce costs by greater efficiency m production and marketing methods. Prices of food, feeder livestock, and motor supplies contributed m >st to the increase. Grass and legume seed averaged sharply higher than a year earlier, while food and to bacco prices were up six per cent above a year ago.

! - w— Hobby (iene Camp Wonders: Can A Former Farmville Boy Be the Lindbergh Baby? For years now the Flying Dutch man. the ghost ship tha sails thp Seven Seas, has been sighted along the horizons of the world. On the land, another recurring chest, that of the Lindbergh baby, has been sighted. It was 25 years ago, March 1, ii'32, that a cold, raw wirtd whistled around the New Jersey home of Charles A. Lindbergh and his wife, the former Anne Morrow. A quarter of a century las passed since Lindbergh heard a sound like "tiie top slats of an orange box falling off a chair," made a futile check of the nursery, anc told Mrs. Linibergh. "Anne, they lave stolen our baby." Two Months ol Headlines For two months, tt e nation's newspapers headlined stories of the search efforts. Finally. <n May 12 Lindbergh was told that t is son was dead. William Allen, a Negro track driver had stumbled ont* the body of a baby in the woods not far from Lindbergh's home. Although the body wcs .pitifully decomposed, the world believed that it was Charles A Lindbergh. Jr.. . the 19-month-old son of 1 le nation's hero. There were some peop e working on the case, though, who vere never convinced that the body found face down in a shallow hole in t far from an orphanage was that o: the Lind bergh baby. The boy's nurse identified the stitching in the nightshi t us the type of thread that she hid used to sew the garment. Someone noticed that, the body had a toe deformity similar to that of the missing child. Lindbergh said. "Yes. this is my son." And so the evidence mounted Greensboro Paper Getls Story Just as there are recurring re ports of sighting the Fly ng Dutch man. so are there recurring rumors • that the Lindbergh baby still lives The latest comes from ti e Greens boro. N. C., Daily News. Soon after young Lindbergh was kidnapped, a North Carolina textile worker and his wife adopted a child. Bryant Madison >Vicki Camp, and his wife, Annie Maude, told neighbors in Shelby. N. C.. that they had adopted the ch Id. which closely resembled the Lindbergh baby, in Charlotte. Bobby Jean, they called him. a name which was later ms sculinized to Bobby Gene. Bobby was ioc young at the time to notice the stares of strangers and that news j a per stories compared him to 'he missing Lindbergh baby. Bobby has noticed, now Snatches of conversation, yellowed 1 ewspaper clippings and a series of uncanny events have left him wondering who he is. He believes that he might possibly be Lindbergh's son. but he makes no such claim "Don't let Vick scare ycu you're Festival of Music To Be May 10,1112 The most anticipated occasion of the Glee Club is always die Spring Festival of Muse to be held this year May 10. 1!;. and 12. The Mary Washington College Glee Club will join the HfS group. The presentation will be the "El ijah" by Felix Mendelssohn. The first of the three 'perform ances of tlie Festival will be given at Mary Washington College on Friday evening. The oraiorio will be given on the H-S campus on Saturday evening at 8:00 in Gammon Gymnasium. This par ticular concert will be a fitting and eventful climax to tljie festiv ities of Parents’ and Fritjnds Day to be held at that time at H-S. The third performance of the "El ijah" will be given at Richmond on Sunday evening. May! 12. The "Elijah" is the inost ac claimed of Mendelssohn s orator ios It is a peer to both life "Crea tion" by Haydn and thej "Messi ah" by Handel. In its entirety the work requires two and j a half hours. However, to facilitate its ease in handling, only two hours of the work are planned! foi the May concerts.

Matt Camp, Vick’s brother, told him. “Go see Lindbergh and , you’ll never hurt for anything.” Matt said when he was dying. But Matt died without ever telling Bnbby bow he could prove such a statement. t.Hiduergn (tippings round When Vick died in 1952. Bobby found among Ins things a trunk con taining clippings about Lindbergh's career, his marriage, the kidnap ing and the Lindbergh home. One of the clippings says, “Mr. and Mrs. Cam&, it will be recalled, have the baby that resembled the Lindbergh baby. Their two-year old child was taken on several occasions as the missing Lindbergh baby be fore the death of the famous flier's son was established. The Camp child was the same age and weight and had the same curly hair and blue eyes as the Lindbergh baby. Tlie Camp child is the pride of his foster parents and wherever they go, the child is taken along with them." One of the clippings tells of an offer of $50,000 for the "Lindbergh baby double." Purportedly the offer was made by a man and a woman, driving a car with Concord license plates, who saw Bobby in Shelby. Gaston B. Means, the man who got $104,000 from Mrs. Evalyn Walsh McLean on the promise that he could buy the Lindbergh baby front the kidnapers, lived in Con cern. $75,000 Offered for Boy W. K. Childrey. of Meherrin, a brother of Annie Maude, says that someone tried to buy Bobby from the Camps. He recalls at the time frequent m e n t i o n was made of Bobby's likeness to the Lindbergh baby. Childrey. however, scotches, the idee that the boy actually is the Lindbergh baby. He says that the boy was taken from a receiving home in Charlotte when lie was eight months old. The Camps had been married for II years then. The child’s mother was a Smith, the un married daughter of a well-to-do family. The Childreys visited the ’hild’s grandparents, and his mother visited him while he was a baby. Childrey says that he told Bobby hat he was adopted, something that neither Vick nor Annie Maude had lone, and who his mother was. He adds that the boy tried to contact ber. but that she refused to acknow ’edge him. James B. Smith, now 83 and a patient at the Presbyterian hospital :: Charlotte, was superintendent of public welfare in Cleveland county at the time cf the kidnaping and the placement of Bobby with t h e Camps. Smith Remembers Placement "I did go to Greensboro with Mr. and Mrs. Camp. I remember a lot of things about it. Mrs. Camp got sick on the way to Greensboro. I remember that." he reminisces. "And when we got there, we saw Dr. Phoenix. He took us to the child care hospital and we walked through rows of baby beds. That was in 1932 aud the depression was an. There were plenty of babies up for adoption then," Smith added. "The day after we brought that boy from Greensboro. Camp and his wife and I went to the clerk of the court in Shelby and made out some papers. ' Still. I wasn't t<-> sure about Camp. I didn't know if he’d make a rood foster parent, so I told -the c erk not to make out adoption papets until I saw how the boy worked out at the Camp home. "I temcmber this so well, you see. because this was the last placement I handled. And it was done with so much secrecy. About two months after I placed the bay wiiii the’ Camps. I resigned from the v.r’late department. So I more or less forgot about the boy after it seemed that he’ was working out all right." Bi liews Boy Could Be Lindbergh Smith (toes believe that the boy could lit the Lindbergh baby. He suggests that possibly the kidnapers became scared w'it'.'. the furo r caused by the put licity given the case, and got rid of the child to protect themselves from arrest. The child could have been taken to North Carolina and given to a couple to be given to an adoption agency under a false name. With secrecy p e r v a ding all adoption agency actions, it “could have been dene," Smith says. Bruno Hauptman, who died for the crime April 11. 19,'iti. visited in North Carolina in' the early months of 193_\ As for Bobby, he says “the first I can remember. I lived i:i Shelby Then we moved to Farmville, where 1 remember Annie Maude keeping me close to iter. I mean site kept me in the house most of the time.” Camps Lived on Virginia Street The Camps. Bobby and Annie Maude, lived on Virginia street in a house owned by George Rogers. Evidently Annie Maude and Vick were divorced, and Vick worked at a Civilian Conservation Corps camp near Petersburg. Mrs. J. E. Harris lived next door, and she noticed that Annie Maude kept the boy “rather sheltered- She was clean and well-groomed, and kept the bov well-dressed." Mrs. Han is recalls. Mrs. Harris recalls wondering about Annie Maude's frequent trips—“to a doctor in South Bos ton "—from which she always re lurned well-off. Mrs. Rogers, too. remembers considering Annie Maude “quite dressed up—she drove a car and all," and wondering about the source of her livelihood since at the time Annie Maude was working as a waitress at Shannon’s. Mrs. A. O. Lafoon also lived next to the Camps in the 2(H) block on Virginia street, and her memories <■!' the Camps are similar to those of Mrs. Harris and Mrs. Rogers. Miss Adams Taught Bobby Miss Lucy Adams taught the boy in school in 1937-1938, when he was ‘ )ght years old and in the second giade. She remembers him as a pale sort, a rather retiling boy. In 1940, (lie mailed fist of circum stance struck Bpbby again. Annie Maude was found in back of a boor joint in Farmvilie. parked in her car. with a bullet through her head. “Suicide." the police said. Dr. Joseph H Smith was called in to certify ;! • death.

Means of in jury: revolver wound. Death at Big Oak Dr. Smith recalls that the death occurred beyond Mott ley's on Third street, at a filling station-restaurant combination know as "Big Oak.'1 Neither Dr. Smith nor the police have any records which would indi cate that Annie Maude’s death might not have been self-inflicted. Matt Camp said tiiat Annie Maude did not kill herself. The late J. T. Dcyne. the funeral director who handled arrangements for her burial November 17. 1940. is sup posed to have commented at the time on how strange it was that a woman should commit suicide by shoo'ing herself. "Ordinarily, women do not kill themselves with a gun: they take poison, slash their wrists or hang themselves,” he told friends. Dr. Smith corroborates Doyne's observa ' ions Mrs. Harris, too. does not believe that Annie Maude shot herself. “She was mortally afraid of dying—so afraid of so many things." Mrs. Han 15 recalls “She was so pos sessive with the boy. and with no one to leave him to, I just never have believed that she shot her self." Survivors Listed The Herald carried an obituary showing that the survivors were Bobby Camp, 11: three sisters. Mrs. Della Wood, of Clover: Mrs. Josie Newcomb, of North Carolina. Mrs. Hallie Hudson, of Farmville: two brothers* Fred Childrey, of North Carolina, and W. E. Childrey. of Farmville. No mention was made of Vick, yet it was Vick Camp who signed her death certificate as informant. His address was then 1364 C.C.C.. Petersburg, and he said that she was 40 years old and the daughter of Julia Tuck and Calvin Childrey. of Halifax county, and had lived in Prince Edward county two years at the time of her death. Tiie V' K Childreys look the boy in. They hadj cared for him fre quently, even before Annie Maude’s death. Vick paid for Bobby’s board in the Childrey home. The Childreys moved to Meherrin. and Bobby may have gone to I he Lunenburg school after that. Vick took the child when he was about. 15 years old, as the Childreys recall. Bobby says. "I finished the eighth grade. Vick wanted me out of school so I could work. I did well in school and would have liked to have fin ished. but Vick wanted me out, so I Worked.” Lived fn Cedar Falls In 19-17. Vick and Bobby lived in r'edar Falls. Bobby remembers a black car driving up into the yard. There was a big man and a woman in the car. They got out pointed at me. I couldn't hear whet they w'ere saying, and Vick wouldn't tell me. even after they drove off.” ■Bobby relates, Bobby says that he is 2f> now, and uses July it as his birthday. That's just what Vick and Annie Maude told him. After Vick died in 1952, Matt told Bobby that he was the Lindbergh baby. Bobby asked him why he hadn't told him that before, and Matt told him that he was afraid that Vick would kill him. Who Is Bobby? None of these things have helped Bobby find out who he is. There is no record of his adoption in Charlotte, but James B. Smith's explanation of depression adoption methods might explain thin. Bobby has spent about $500 trying to find out who he is. He has visited places in Virginia and the Carolinas he heard V:ck and Annie Maude mention, trying to track down leads as to his identity. He was here last summer. Now he is a doffer at a Cieens boro textile mill. As for the Lindberghs, a movie entitled "fne Spirit of St. Louis.' the life story of Charles A Lind bergh. is now being released, and there will probably he more reports o! the Fiyir.g Dutchman and Lind bergh bab’es Our verdict had been given. With a word of com mendation the Judge discharged us, the ladies and gentlemen of the jury. The completed duty brought little relief. Instead there was a burden, a spiritual weight. Days of testimony and hours of deliberation had given an oppressive sense of the world's sin and suffering. The door of my church was open and I slipped inside. I was alone as the rays of the setting sun enhanced the rich colors of the windows. All was quiet. I dropped to my knees. Gradually in the solemn beauty of that sacred place I found peace. Here was sanctuary for me and for all who would come in faith believing. Thankfully I arose; my heart and mind felt calm and refreshed. I could go home now, but I would return often. In glad fellowship with God’s people I would worship the Christ who died that men might be forgiven. ; 4 THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .

Speaker Mid - Twentieth Century society places a heavy responsibility! upon the small college for the develop ment of motivation toward scholar ship and research. Dr. Paid M. Gross, t ice pr< ident of 1 i 1 versity, said in an addrt at H den Sydney Coll r e Wednesday night. “The small colic;;-' is 11 the na tion's greatest hope in stimulating students to individual thinking and advanced study.” the visitor from Durham.

In national defense. Dr. Gross said, the United States is outnum bered in population and in compara tive armament level. "It is urgent that we develop a high level of technology to offset this difference, as modern war is conducted on a high technical level. The stimulating of more scholarship and research in small colleges is the answer to this vital challenge.* "In the small college it is not the quality of teaching alone that leads to interest in advanced study—it is the developing of individual think ing. leading the student to weigh and question the material offered him and to strike out for himself to test its validity." The small college has a greater opportunity to provide for the ex ceptional student. Di Gross .'aid. as outstanding students aiv more quickly spotted in the smaller col lege. and an appreciative teacher may lead the gifted scholar into fields worthy of his abilities. "It would be the despair of the country." he concluded, "if we could not look to the small college to up hold our standards of building moti vation for scholarship and research to meet the demands of our increas ingly complex world.” My Birth Certificate | ^■ps^is Important That's why my Daddy keeps it in the Safety \ Deposit Box!

District 7. officers elected Thursday, Benjamin Hendricks, of Lunenburg, Miss Elizabeth Martin, of Danville, and George W. Woodall, of Chatham, receive a briefing from Mrs. Frances G.

Wil liams, of Lawrencevi le, was elected chairman. if the British come up with their Comet IV earlier than expected, or threaten to introduce it before the 707 is m operation. Slow in Coming Several U. S. airlines expect to have 707's, Douglas DC-8's and Con vair 880's flying in 1959. But the big news which will develop even earlier than this is to be made by the British Britannia, which will go -into transatlantic service this year. It is a turbo-p'O aircraft which will carry about 13 passengers and fly 450 miles and hour. This is about halfway between the performance of today’s transatlantic conventional passenger aircraft and the jets of tomorrow. The Britannia is expected to re duce travel time between London and New York to seven or eight hours and will probably offer the best schedules over the Atlantic for a year or more This might also ac! as a catalyst to the American air lines which will first introduce jet Pavel on the transatlanic run.
