WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 1950. $2.00 Per Year Plant Near Completion For Induction Festivities ' Plans are running at a furious pace for the ceremonies accompanying the induction of the ladies into the offices of mayor'and town council of Washington next Friday, September 1.

"• * > v A Square Dance will be held In the high school auditorium Friday night tfrom 9 to 1 o'clock. A . string-orchestra will be on hand with a regular figure-caller for the dance. Costumes will be cottons and blue jeans. Many distinguished guests have accepted the invitations to be on hand for the festivities, and folks are expecting the return of kin and old-timers who will take the occasion to renew acquaintances in the county. Someone has commented on the pleasant situation that gives rise to family gatherings. The talk runs as if the ladies did everyone VpWHil "favors*by getting themselves elected no there was an extra excuse to come back home for a visit. Falling as it does, with the opening of thq Labor Day holiday, the clans of the county will be gathering. Like all plans for "company" coming, there are awivetts and sweats. Some plans run smoothly —-others hit snags, but everything will be ironed out in perfect order by the proper hour. < Typically feminine, of primary importance in the minds of the ladies-elect is “W hat shall 1 wear?” Husbands will tell fou that the madam has informed them that cash must be forthcoming for a new frock—or frocks: “I simply have nothing to wear l” The men enjoy the teasing about this situation, but bets are hard to get that a single one of them got out of the situation of producing the heeded cash. •* . $ , .» Garden Club To Meet With Mill Ethel Lonjf Wednesday, August 30 \ The Rappahannock Garden Club will meet at the home of Miss Ethel Long at 2p’clock Wednesday, August 30. -* The exhibits will be specimens of dahlias and arrangements^f Dahlias or other summer annuals.

Post Office Department Defines Word "Lottery” Letters have been received by newspapers from the Post Office Department in Washington, D.C., signed by Frank J. Delaney, department solicitor, stating: - “Any newspaper or publication containing any advertisement of any lottery, gift enterprise, or scheme of any kind offering prizes dependent . . . upon a lot or chance” shall be fined not more than $1,000 or imprisoned for not . '* more than two years or both. Mr. Delaney said this included use of the .word “pari-mutuel” in print. There were queries from variout points throughout the Nation as to whether the order applied to the word only when used in rmm results, or if it prohibited any use of it, even in general, or feature stories. No one was certain, even after one editor had telephoned Washington for a “simple explanation” of the letter.

CHURCH NOTICES -Bov. August Erast will hold 11 o'clock worship at the Washington | Methodist church, Sunday morning . (4th Sunday). I llllllllMMItlllllHIlHmmmilllHMIMMIHHIIMtlltllllHmil RAPP - CHATS By: W. H. Lyne | County Agent i Now I am in a state of . . . well several things. First of all the Extension Service Brass says if you have a weekly paper get something in it every week and yours truly has been trying very diligently to do just that. Last week it was felt our Rapp-Chats were very brief . . . and what did the editor of our good paper do but stick in a crack at the end of the column, BUT WORST OF ALL . . . little quotation hasn’t come in yet printed up all nice and neat like. Guess that proves not many even read Rapp-Chats. Can’t say that I blame you . . . not much anyway. ’ If any of you present readers happened to have rea£ the column a few weeks ago when we gave forth with the program of . tbs annual membership meeting of Rappahannock Supply, or if y,ou got to the meeting, you saw that Monk Clark was too and did make a talk well worth listening to. At least one farmer commented, “What a pity more of our fanners couldn’t have been present to hear him.” As a matter of fact I couldn’t be there . . . ahd to be in Winchester that night, - but know Monk usually makes a good talk. Actually Monk was about the fourth or fifth choice. The program committee’s first choice was Dr. H. H. Young, Acting Dean of Agriculture and Director of the VPI Experiment Station. After declining the invitation first by wire, Dr. Young, who had been requested to talk of the Agricultural Outlook later replied by letter and with Doctor’s consent it is to this letter we invite your careful thought—quote: “Even if I were able to be on the program to talk about the out-. look, it would be necessary for mo to be very vague and indefinite because I do not. know what the outlook is likely to be. Anyone - who >states that lie does know is either very ignorant or Very dishonest. I believe the situation is more confused now than it has ever been in my memory. The two factors which are responsible for most of this confusion is the part the government is playing in our economic affairs, and secondly, the uncertainties surrounding the war situation. “About 17 years ago we aban- _ doned temporarily the law of supply and demand as the regulator of prices, at least we thought it was temporary. It looks now as though we are getting more and more to the place where we are willing permanently to abandon partially the law of supply and demand as the regulator of prices and, to substitute in its place controls based mainly upon political expediency. “The Federal government operates a budget of about 40 billion dollars a year. This amount of funds, under its direct control, has the power of influencing economic affairs for better , or for worse,' depending very often upon the political whim of the moment or upon the apparent necessity of some economics pressure group. Under the circumstances, no one on earth can predict what will De done next, l nose who occupy positions of public responsibility and trust do not, themselves, know what will happen next. Important economic commitments are made from year to year, from month to month and even from day to day, and I am afraid too often on the basis of political expediency. Under the circumstances no one, I feel, is capable of making a definite prediction about the future. . „ “Relative to the war situation,' of course, that is surrounded by uncertainty. We don|t know yet how serious the Korean situation really is or/how long it; will take to settle it, or’ what the cos^ will be. Furthermore, we do not know about other situations which may spring up at any time around the Russian periphery. In view of these uncertainties, I do not feel that it would be safe to make any definite predictions as to what the immediate future holds for us. “I have always thought that when we are confronted with a situation that is as doubtful as the present and immediate future, f that we should play the game eon- ' servatively. That means among \ other things a system of sound finance both privately and public* | ly, ‘Which means the making of financial commitments which can be carried out wih certainty. It 1 ■■eeni also that we. need to place.

There was a recordbreaking attendance of ministers, messengers, and friends from Indiana, Illinois, .West Virginia, and sister church in Virginia. Among the ministers present were Elder* E. Wayne Thompson and Elder John Adkerson, pastors at Luray and New Market. The membership ait Luray has more than doubled since February 1. Pastor of Thornton Gap Regular Baptist church is Elder R. H. Thompson. Forest Grove Reports Successful Revival Forest Grove Baptist church, at Viewtown, held their' annual revival August 114-20. The church was filled every night, which testified to the interest. There were many visitors attending during? , the week from Washington, D* ’ Chattanooga, Tenn., Warren ton, Culpeper, Richmond, Woodville, Flint Hill, and Washington. The Rev. W. Fred Sliger, pas-* tor of University Heights Baptist church, Tallahassee, Fla., was the guest preacher. Special music was a feature of the meeting in that the church choir rendered a special each night. Mrs. John Woodrow Sliger of Chattanooga, Tenn., sang “The Lord’s Prayer” on Thursday night. On Sunday night the guest minister sang a solo entitled “I’ll „ Walk with the King.” The music was under the direction of the pastor, Rev. M. E. Sliger. The congregation of 70 members was organized in 1886 and services are held every first and third Sunday. During the revival the following ten new members were received: Mr. and Mrs. William Wood, Mrs. Joe Hitt, Cletus Prince, Mrs. Florence Prince, Miss Dorothy Ihrince, Shirley Woodard, * Charles Settle, Eugene Cooke, and Melvin Williams. Of these, five are candidates for baptism, four by transfer of membership, and one by statement. Culpeper and Warrenton To Help In Washington Induction Festivities At a called meeting of the board of directors Saturday morning, states E. Murphy Hoffman, president of Culpeper Chanjbpr;'of-< Commerce, it was endorsed - tfesf!^ .' the chamber go along with the Association for Greater Warrenton in publishing booklets of the history of Washington and Rappahannock county.

This booklet will be given to y all attending the celebration on September 1, when the ladies of Washington will be installed as Mayor and members of the town council, the first such woman control of a town government in this section of the State.

Americans at home should stop to think •what they are asking their young eons and brothers to do, and why they are asking it. The more important question is the “Why,” because men will fight and die gladly in a great cause if only they understand what they are fighting for. The reports from the front of the bitterness and bewilderment of our troops'are too insistent and too obviously correct to be ignored. The young infantryman who said to a correspon^ dent the other day: “Damned if I see why I’m fighting to save this hellhole,” was giving expression to a tragic ignorance, but one for which his superiors and not he should be blamed. The basic facts that every —American soldier—and for that pnatter £Yeryo.civilian—-must understand are relatively simple. The soldier in the Korean hills and the folks back home who pay higher taxes and accept controls are, to begin with, fighting for survival. Korea is only a single battle in a long war whose sphere of action is the greater part of the world. This is an acute phase of a struggle in which our liberty and our whole way of life are at stake. One filthy, bleary-eyed boy firing a bazooka at a Russian-built North Korean tank is defending the freedom of his country and everything that Americans hold dear as surely as if he were defending the shores of California or Virginia against Communist hordes. His enemy is only incidentally the fantical, misguided Korean who comes at him to kill. It is communism, totalitarianism, slavery, the police state, that is the true enemy. The simple fact today is that there is a price to be paid—a very great price. The soldier pays it in blood, others in other ways, but there is no escaping it. If everybody concerned knows what he is fighting for, the price will be paid gladly and bravely. That First Day Mothers can help children over the often difficult hurdle of that first day in school by teaching them independence in seemingly trivial matters. A child’s ability to give his full name and address and his father’s and mother’s names and occupation without assistance on the first day of school may seem like a small accomplishment, but it is one which may help him get started “oh the right foot.” An equally small matter, but one that is important to the child, is the ability to put on his own wraps without assistance. Children will benefit from being able to handle a handkerchief without adult help, carry out simple directions without repeated explanations from the persons who give them, and get along with children of their own age without depending on a grown-up to unscramble a squabble. Your child will have enough problems to solve in the strange, new world of learning, letters, numbers, and words from the primer to force other problems on him that can be solved at home. Teach him all the independence and self-reliance you can at home before he tackles that most important day in his life: “The first day of school.” Beekeepers To Meet At Charlottesville The third annual beekeepers’ - sort course, will be held at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, September 7 and 8.

Faithfully following this well-schooled prognosticator, the county paper published his sage report. The next day it turned “cold as Christian charity” and stayed that way. In midsummer this same weatherman predicted wet dog-days. ’Twould rain, quoth he. The county News immediately printed same. The drought that followed is all too fresh in the memory. We’ll profit by previous experience, decided the News. This time the county paper prepared to fox that old bird, the weatherman: we’ll print that he predicts two more months of dry weather, and then it’ll rain! Yes-sir, we’ll print about the drought and bring out the umbrellas! There’s a stool-pigeon somewhere in the joint 1 The weatherman must’ve heard, because the rain came twTo days early, Tuesday. .* * * Thirty years ago this week the American women won the right to "Vote. The ladies demanded the right to vote during an 1880 political convention in Chicago; 20 years later they paraded, carrying banners, and took a powerful beating in the jokes and fun poked at suffragettes. About ten days from now seven ladies will begin the business managing of Rappahannock’s county seat. Two years ago ladies took over another Virginia town, Clintwood, down in southwest, and they did a good job. Since the 19th Amendment gave women the vote, beginning August 26, 1920, it is estimated that 20,000 women have been elected or appointed to office in federal, state, county, and city governments: 47 have served in Congress and 2,806 in state legislatures. It is estimated that in the 30 years about 1000 women held top positions in federal service; 100 held elective state positions; 3000 had appointive state positions; 300 were in municipal service; 8000 in county governments; about 300 were in diplomatic service; and 160 were judges. Today there are nine women in the House of Representatives and one in the Senate; 218 serve in state legislatures. Beginning September 1 someone must remember to add seven more to the list of the famous ladies. —Whoa, back up! Can’t add but six names. One of them has already served as a Town Council member, and is previously listed among the famous. a at at. Our neighbors over in Warren county are putting on some special sales in their stores and as an added attraction they say: free parking on meters to out-oft o w n shoppers. That’s very thoughtful, thank you, and we’ll take advantage of it, too. Somewhere, the other day, there appeared in print a list of statistics on how many more cars there were in the United States than places to park ’em. (Brings to mind the observation of a fellow on matrimony: “There’s more couples getting married today than as has a place to reside at when they’re at home.”) This isn’t Thanksgiving day, but it’s no matter. Here in Rappahannock we give thanks that there’s no parking problem. Just stop your car, pull up the brake, turn off the switch, and get out. If you don’t believe this, go look for yourself. The signs in Washington, Rappahannock, say: Farking 24-hour limit. •** *T» A special conference on the problems of aging was scheduled 1 Baseball UNDER LIGHTS NIGHTS AT 8:00 ! 4 miles from Culpeper on Orange Road Admission: 25c & 60c (tax included) THURSDAY, AUG, 24 CULPEPER “LORDS” —VS.CAROLINE FRIDAY, AUG. 25' * CULPEPER “LORDS” —vs.— TAPPAHANNOCK SUNDAY, AUG. 27 CULPEPER “LORDS” —VS_ FREDERICKSBURG WEDNESDAY, Aug. 30 CULPEPER “LORDS” _vs__r WARSAW 4:b p g| WAR • B m m m mm m mm mm mm S'. _ < S ij MinamniMiNMUiHHiMUiiMiniimiiMtniHimiiHi a Marketing Of Pigs To Begin Early Marketing from the spring pig crop probably wilt' begin earlier than usual this year. George Herring, animal husbandman at VPI says the June pig survey showed more early-farrowed pigs than in recent years; and that good fe£d supplies on most farms have made it possible to push pigs along rapidly. Another factor is that hogs are being sold at somewhat lighter weights. During the last half of the year, hog prices usually ' reach their peak sometime between late July and early September with a rather Steady decline to the low point in December. The average decline over a period of years is near 18 per cent from the high to the low point. Herring says the seasonal decline probably will occur this year. Selling hogs as fast as they are ready is good business, especi ally in the fall months when the value of increased weight may be offset by a lower price. Farmers are advised to sell off the tops as they reach a desirable market weight—now around 200 to 220 pounds. Herring says Virginia fanners should keep at least the usual number of hogs, and take good care of their herds. The high level of employment and high wages expected to prevail for some time to come means an active demand for meat. Prospects for a good corn crop in Virginia and in the United States as a whole also point to a favorable future for • • "pig-3 breeders*'in Washington, D. C., August 13 by the Federal Security Agency. “With each passing year, the proportion of older people in our population is increasing,” said some FSA administrator, “A century ago, only one American in 38 was over 65. Today the figure is one out of 13.” Let the alphabetical agency continue to dispense statistics; they’ve got to have something to do, and working out their little theories will be harmless. Some of us—-not on a government payroll, collecting statistics —'have a few private opinions on what these statisticians call ’old age.” The citizens met around here (who would fall in the government’s category of “old age”) are some of the county’s finest. A lady, who saw 16 well before this century began, says that old age begins with the day you get enough sense to know how to live, and then you discover folks think it’s time for you to die. I’ve always felt a tinge of envy of those considered “old.” They’ve had the Jbenefit of so many more years of learning. They’ve lived long enough to know how to enjoy living. Some of us, chronologically, are not old, but not one in a dozen of us will have sufficient intelligence to profit by the experience of those whose years are more numerous. We’ll stumble along, learning the hard way. The fellow.-who made the observation on “couples with no place to reside at,” is also the one who became decidedly irked with his brother: “He says the rocks must arrive on the fence, and I’m the one who’s expected to arrive them there.” S Pitts Park i THEATRE | Front Royal, Virginia THURS. - FRI., AUG. 24-25 “Asphalt Jungle” —with— STERLING HAYDN JEAN HAGEN _•_ 1 imiHUIttHMIimWMlMMmMIIIIlMlMMIMMHUWMIimHMMMni SATURDAY, AUGUST 26 “Last of The Wild Horses” —with— JAMES 'ELLISON SUNDAY, AUGUST 27 (Shows 3 and 9 P.M.) “Grand Canyon” : —with— . ■’ BICHARD, ARLEN t v. - .MON. - TUES. - WED.

Not that these modern discoveries are not worthwhile; they are. But the inertia of their innovation $eems to have carried them beyond their present useful bounds. They are obliterating conversation. Observe, in our day, a social gathering: the Wbmen talk of clothes, lack of servants, and other women; the men, lack of money. When these topics are exhausted, they turn frantically to the radio, _and sit back to have their tympanic membranes mercilessly assaulted by the trip-hammers of jazz or by the blatant hawkings for Hadacol... . . or they all go off to the movies; or they bring the family car to the rescue . , all conversational escapes. “We have become a group of watchers, listeners, and at best talkative repeaters, instead of thinkers, doers, and that luxurious middle link—conversationalists. Even in our casual remarks we have not the semblance of intelligent speech nor do we evidence wisdom in tlva-yery impetus of all conversation: questions. “Do you really mean it?” “You don’t say?” “Really?” Such moronic remarks are familiar to us all. The other evening, as I was playing bridge (another escape!) a friend walked in and, with all polite sincerity, asked “Playing bridge?” Of course we were. He or any- trtber half rational -person could have seen as much. He was a college graduate. • On another occasion, while reclining in an easy chair, interestedly absorbed in the book I was reading, a friend, entered and. pleasantly queried, “Reading?” Well, we’re still friends. Have you ever had a particularly busy day and, after plodding home too exhausted to speak, been met with, “Have a hard day?" To be sure, this is a conversational quip with which to stab a tired silence, and maybe should not be parried thus: “No thanks, I just had one.” It is probably better -to turn and leave the room while strength yet remains. With a little thought, many other trite remarks may be recalled which are resorted to, just to make conversation. Well, why make conversation? Why not turn the tables and let conversation make us? Tall men lack leg room in theatre seats, but by stretching their necks they can see over the hats of the ladies in front o^ them.

Virginia Allotted Half “ Million Wheat Acres Virginia gets a State wheat allotment for the 1351 crop of 508,354 acres, the Production and Marketing Administration has announced. That’s considerably more than the 425,000 acres actually harvested this year, according to State PMA Cairman R. B. Bridgforth, ■“but only a 1.2 per cent increase over the 1950 allotment. On the basis of recent yields the 1951 allotment should produce over 9 million bushels, but a small part of the acreage is not harvested for grain. Even so, production would likely exceed that of 1950, now estimated to be about 7.8 million bushels, the chairman noted. Bridgforth said that the 1951 wheat allotment is broken down by counties on the basis of recent production history. For that reason, some county allotments may be larger and some smaller than in 1950. — individual farm -wheat-acreageallotments for 1951 will be released by PMA county offices later. The U. S. Department of Agriculture does not consider wheat supplies on hand large enough to require marketing quotas on wheat in 1951 which would mean stricter controls and penalties for non-compliance. However, farmers are eligible for government price - support only if they plant within individual allotments. “This country is now in a very sound position with regard to wheat,” Bridgforth pointed out, “and under average conditions production from allotted acreage will assure abundant supplies. Wheat allotments are a carefully calculated plan to provide enough i wheat to meet all forseeable requirements of the nation, and at the same time maintain a reasonable reserve for years of crop failure or national emergency.” *--'1 --—>— PPM • ^ - .

Sen. Byrd State* View* ‘ On Price Control Bill An analysis given to me by the • Legislative Counsel of the United States-Senate makes it clear that the pending control bill does not require the President to control wages in the event that price controls are established. Mr. Baruch emphasized in his testimony before the Senate Committee on Banking and Currency, that no price control plan could be effective unless wage control was established coincident with price control. This is unquestionably true, as wages constitute a very large part of the cost of all manufactured articles and agricultural products. I announced my support of price ceilings providing wages are controlled simultaneously with prices. This the pending bill does not require the President to do and is so worded as to leave wage control to his own determination as to whether his failure tp do so would constitute an “undue burden” upon companies producing articles upon which he places price ceilings. ' The main purpose of this legislation is to prevent inflation. It would be a farce to pass a bill that does not make .wage control mandatory when price controls are established. Such a course would not stop inflation and may result very disastrously to our economic system. For myself, 1 cannot support any legislation that does not effectively establish both controls coincident one with the other. I am fortified in this opinion by the statement from the Legislative _Counsel of hte Senate, _ _ .. I hope on Monday the Senate will amend the pending bill in this respect and further provide for a definite expiration date of July 1, 1951, thus enabling a review by the next Congress. I ask unanimous consent to insert in the Record as a part of my remarks a copy of the analysis of S. 3986, as prepared at my request by the Senate Legislative Counsel. Sheep Projects Gain Among 4-H Clubs Interest in the 4-H club sheep project—which is returning more per dollar invested than any other livestock project—is running high in Virginia, says D. E. Brower, 4-H club livestock specialist at VPI. Brower says there are about 75 flock projects in 22 counties this year, with the flocks ranging in size from a minimum of 5 to about 30. There are very few farming systems into which a flock project will not fit—and last year’s figures give evidence of the value of the project, Brower says. Last year 45 boys from 14 counties turned in complete records on their flock projects. They began with 400 breeding ewes value at $7,700 the fall of 1948. The total income from the lamb and wool crop, plus a few cull sheep, was $15,777. The net income was $6,250, or an average of $138 per flock, and the boys still owned ewes valued at $6,900, plus about $1,300 in replacement ewe lambs. In addition, they received $1,500 in premiums. The most outstanding flock project in the state, Brower says, was carried by James Swink, of Lexington, who, as winner of the state sheep shearing contest, went to International Livestock Exposition in Chicago, and was awarded $50 in supplies and equipment. Swink had 13 ewes and a ram valued at $340 at the beginning of the year. Wool paid for the winter feed bill, and he raised 21 lambs from the ewes and sold them for $499. At the end of the year his original flock was valued at $300, he bought several purebred Hampshires, and is now in the purebred business.' His sljeep shearing techniques are paying off to—this year he sheared 800 sheep for a neighbor in addition to his own flock. Brower says 4-H club boys interested in the flock project are being encouraged to start out with commercial grade ewes, and then later, if they like, to work into the purebred business. The club members must keep accurate records, and are eligible for valuable premiums. Complete information is available from all county agents or from D. E. Brower? Blacksburg. Rappahannock boys who have been successfully enrolled in this project are: Douglas Martin, of Amissville; Richard Griffith, of Woodville; and Kelly Updike, of Washington. Four new sheep projects were started this summer with Francis Bruce, Donald Gore, Jackie Sisk, and Jonas Alther. In all, Rappahannock boys, own 69 r head of ewes and replacemep* ewe lambs. Also each flock is headed by a purebred ram. And— if there is anything to crystal ball gating—one of these boys will be winner of the 1961 sheep shearing contest. ■ .....—..... >n*i - ' Without realising it, we all act ’oar age—except now and then, of cam*. -*r * T k — Program Announced For Orange Meeting Dr. W.

Pine Lumber Increased $10 to $15 Per Thousand Are lumber prices going up? Yes. That is, the price of pine lumber has increased $10 to $15 per thousand board feet during the past thirty days, according to Charles J. Witter, Assistant DisUae NEWS Classified Ads :r- .] ■;■! ; .■ . trict Forester in charge of timber management for the Charlottes* Ville district. Oak lumber prices are about the same with slight increases in some sections and with the demand somewhat stronger. Pulpwood prices have increased about *1.00 per 160 cubic foot pulpwood unit or $ .80 per standard cord, Mr. Witter also stated. What does this mean to the average timberland owner? Should he sell now? The answer is yes, if his timber is mature and ready for cutting. It is urged by the Virginia Forest Service that every timberland owner consider his timberland seriously before selling at this time. World War II brought heavy drain on our timber supply, in fact the cutting of desirable species was greater than the growth. The forests of Virginia cannot stand another cutting as heavy at this time.

The average cost of each soldier in the regular army is $4,000 a year. Further, I have been disturbed as to the number of rejections of the draftees on account of physical defects, and I feel a universal military training program will result in correcting many physical defects of those who are trained.
