State VbriXf JUcKmonJ-lf VOL. 2—No. 45, WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1951 $2.00 Per Year Farmers.* Committee Recommends Economy - - ”A committee of fanners have set up a group of proposals to be presented at a county-wide meeting September 21 for approval by the rest; of the farmers of the /. county. r The committee formulating the set of resolutions Is the one elected at the first county-wide meeting held in regard to the no*w- ; much-discussed Family Farm Policy Review,! Using words that most people thought had become obsolete, so far as the government wat concerned, the farmers called for economy, curtailment of expenditures, and abolishment of any farm-agricultural policy that can be eliminated. The farmers even agreed to begin and offer themselves as a group of volufiteer taxpayers, to make sacrifices in order that the national debt may be reduced. The full content of the committee's report follows: WHEREAS, the farmers of Rappahannock County, Virginia, have held several meetings in connection with the Family Farm Policy Review sponsored by the United States Department of Agriculture; and ' - WHEREAS, at the last countywide meeting t,wo farmers of each Magisterial District were elected as a committee to bring to another county-wide meeting recom-e mendations concerning this re“ ~view; and ■ WHEREAS, the report of the Committee has been presented to the meeting; and WHEREAS, the farmers of Rappahannock County feel that the idea of having "the fanners of the United States give their views is good, the method used in conducting this survey was not in accordance twith democratic process, in that it was conducted , principally by paid federal employees; and WHEREAS, it appears that the recommendations contained ifi the review in every instance call for increased expenditure,'increased personnel and broadening of powers of the U. S. D. A.; and T| WHEREAS, we feel that the! concentration of further authority . over agriculture in the U. S. D. A. is unwise; ana -.*»- * WHEREAS, in this time of impending war, with an enormous federal indebtedness; and the highest tax in our history, it is -felt that any unnecessary-increase” in non-defense spending .is unsound; and. ._ WHEREAS, we feel that the United States 'Department of Agriculture should operate as far as* is possible through our State extension service, and other State facilities, other than directly with —the^farmer, NOW,. THEREFORE, we the farmers of Rappahannock County, . Virginia, represented at this meeting do hereby go on record as strenously objecting to the increasing of the activities of the ,»U. S. D. A. and recommend a dontraction rather than expansion of its activities, and further that we vigorously record our protest of the method used in this survey, of . obtaining reaction to the report and its recommendations; and FURTHER BE IT RESOLVED, that we recommend that the U. S. D. A. be decentralized, and that during these strenuous times that the government spend only for necessities and defense spending. FURTHER BE IT RESOLVED, that farmers as p rule are landowners, hence interested in the general welfare of the Coflhtry, and to this is attributed the fact that rural sections have produced a large percentage of our statesmen. We ire firm believers in our rights of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. At the present we, along with the majority* of our fellow countrymen have been convinced that Life and Lib' erty are both endangered. Hence we have favored our present De* fense B^ogram and are willing to help pay for it. However, since -Vfc05fc.bf thh national'income for , several years, we are willing to deprive ourselves of other 1 essnecessary things until -our .defense costs are paid, and until wg are annually making a reduction im«our national debt. We are willing to be the first group to make 'sacrifices and urge other1 groups •to unselfishly follow us. - THEREFORE, our general answer to these questions pertaining to the Family Farm is that the Department of Agriculture practice all possible economies until our defense problem is solved. Our recommendations are: f 1. THE AGRICULTURE REV SEARCH ADMINISTRATION: I. Research: —Present proI gram adequate. JT", II.

Mr. Romano married Miss Lois ■Goode of Flint Hill and is a frequent visitor in the county, The article gives his record of schooling and service in World -War II, and his subsequent employment with Grumman Aircraft Corporation. 5 ' “It is reasonable to assume that his experience as a Grumman employee gave him the idea of highflying, ’’states the article,4' which has characterised his record with Life-of-Virginia (insurance company). Such is surely a proper estimate of a young man who, being so persuaded by Associate Manager W. N. Brown, signed up as an agent in December of 1948 and got under way so promptly that he qualified double for both the Chicago and Miami conventions.” ■ ~ This citation iwas an honor and the praise of Mr. Romano’s work is backed by examples of his accomplishments.

Rappahannock News Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock ~ ; County, Virginia *• Dial Washington 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher £.;’ mmrnrnm mmm ■■■■■ - — « — ■ ■■■■■■■ jit m i il'i'i i ■> Entered as second-class mail matter at ths post office at Washington, Virginia. Subscription: —... $2.00 a year Salute The Farina's! If you haven't Been or heard anything lately that gave you cause to square your shouldera in pride, read the report made by the farmers’ committee in regards to the Family Farm Review. Some of our forebears, plumb on back to Tom Jefferson, who may have had reason to slump in shame at some of the actions of our nation in the past few years, may stand up straight and hike the regions around Cerberus with a firmer tread. Take a look at this: “However, ‘ since this program will take probably 20% of the national income for several years, we are twilling to deprive ourselves of other less, necessary things until our defense costs are paid, and until we axe annually making a reduction in our national debt. We are willing to be the first group (farmers) to make sacrifices and urge other groups to follow us unselfishly." In a country that had looked as if every man was seeing how much he could grab and how quickly he could get it, it is startling to find left something that resembles the spirit that characterized the —men from the history books! Keep on reading that report. Look at those words: “discontinue ... no expansoin ... tie in and economize . . . curtail 50 % ... - abolish , . . curtail 10% ". Most of us had been led to think that those words in regards to government spending and hand-outs had been dropped from the dictionary. It seems the farmers of Rappahannock have revived them. All that’s needed now is to see the farmers of the county—100% strong—every last one of them, regardless whether he owns ope acre, ten, or a thousand—come to the meeting September 21 and add his vote of approval to the. recommendations. When that happens, someone should tell ole* J., Q. Public to take hope; there’s a chance for survival of a good, oldfashioned, free 4meriea* “Height of Impropriety” A writer iwho’s business is to keep intouch with national affairs has said, “today in Washington circles that formerly advocated Compulsory Health Insurance, it is considered the height of impropriety even to mention it.” What caused this rather remarkable about-face in political, circles that keep their ears to the ground and their eyes—on—lhe_ voter? The answer is obvious. The American people, taken as a whole, want no part of socialized medicine, political medicine, or any kind of medicine that would be under *government domination* There is powerful evidence to support that statement. More than 11,000 organizations — including leading national groups which represent agriculture, labor, industry, the veterans, university women, and so on—have taken a solid stand against Compulsory Health Insurance. The American Press, a magazine which is concerned with the problems and activities and atti-r tudes of weekly newspapers, reported that “greater support -was shown for the American Medical Association’s campaign to fight government medicine than ever has been shown in any other national campaign-—including government wartime campaigns!” It is a noteworthy fact that a great majority of our newspapers, rural and unban alike, have strongly "'opposed Compulsory Health Insurance. This isn’t because the American people believe medicine is perfect. It is because they believe progress can best.be made under the pres-1 „ „ Jmi ^ee„,«csHnr— pn^beeanstf. they are impressed with the immense strides forward that have already been taken. Today, for example, more than 72,000,000 people are enrolled in one or other of the Voluntary Health Insurance systems. The number thus covered jumped 20,000,000 in two years. We are gradually solving the medical care problem—end solving it without political compulsion. —Industrial News Review. September Days It wu James Russell Lowell (who celebrated the rarity of June days, and it was Oliver Wendell Hohnes, the elder, who wrote of "chill September”. Neither of them seems to have noticed that some of the rarest days of any year come in September, days by no means chill and in every way pulsing with life that is only hinted at in languid Jane. September always brings a few such days; and if we appreciate them THE AMERICAN WAY ||'&'%****£«*’ Four Of A Kind it is not wholly because they follow the hot and soggy days of August! Such contrast helps; but they would be magnificent at any -time.——=-^— They are days when the sky is clean and clear, when the air is crisp without being chill, when the wind is free of heat and dust and not yet full of leaves. Late cicadas sing, crickets fiddle in the high grass, and at evening the katydids set up their clatter. Crows caw with less raucous voice than usual. Bees hum over nodding fields of goldenrod. In a properly ordered world, vacations would wait for such days and we would all go out onto the hills and know that life can be good. Enough, perhaps, that in a troubled world we can take time enough to see and feel and sense the fundamental strength and continuing hospitality of the natural world around us. This is our environment, and ours is a way of life that cherishes it. It somehow sums up the things for which we stand. And on a clean, clear September day we can all see the bold horizons of our belief, the hills of our faith and the granite substance of our enduring purpose. How Standard Time Was Started Before Sunday, November 18, 1883, every community in the United States had its own local time, and was proud of it. Worse, ' each of the 600 railroads had its own time—and ran on it. So a traveler from Maine, arriving in Buffalo, might find his watch reading 12:15, the Buffalo cityi clock reading 11:40, the New York Central assuring him it was 12 noon, and the Lake Shore Rail* road asserting it was 11:25. A watch was a delusion, a time table confusion 600 times confounded* -- Offended by the nation’s “pathless wilderness of time,"” orderly Charles Ferdinand Dowd, principal of the Temple Grove Ladies’ Seminary at Saratoga Springs, proposed our time belts across the nation, using Greenwich time as a base. Calculating the correct local time, on longitude for each of the 8000 railroad stations, he published his findings in a pamphlet that he mailed to railroad executives. Then year after year Dowd went and talked at their conventions. From the first, the railroad groups acknowledged the plan’s value, but they were engaged ih a bitter rate and “fast train” wan, and a road’s own time was a great help in clipping a few minutes off a competitor’* time > between cities. Finally, faced with the demand of an exasperated public, the American - fiai&ray AtVr: plan in 1883, and the whole country followed. On the last day under the old. system, “when the sun reached the meridian of the eastern border of Maine,” as Harper’s Weekly told the story, “the clocks began their jangle for the hour of noon and kept it up in a drift across the country for four hours, like incoherent cowbells in a wlMi wood. But on Monday, the 19th, no clock for this hour till the sun reached the 75th meridian. Then all the clocks on the continent struck together, those in the (Eastern striking 12, those in the Central striking 11, those in the1 Mountain striking 10, and those in the Pacific striking 9. Time tables everywhere became intelligible.-—Roger William Biis to The Rotarian. 3. E. Oranfa was Sunday after* noon viator of Mr. and Mrs. &. T. Ciblar. ‘The Time Hat Come,* the Wtirsi uU , AN OLD STORY Over 2300 years ago, so quotes a learned professor, in Aristophanes’ hit play “Eeelesiasnsae,” -. a lady Oorngiunist named Praxagora said: . “I want all to have a share of everything and all property to be in common; there twill no"~longer be either rich or poor; no-longer shall we see one man harvesting vast tracts of land, while another £as not ground to be buried in ... I intend that there shall be only one and the same condition of life for all ... I shall begin by making land, money, every- [ thing that is private property, common to all.” “But who,” asks Blepyrus, another character, “shall do all the work?” “Oh,” says Praxagora, “we shall have slaves.” A lot of peopl« assume that■Old English is to blame for that troublesome “qu” in our language. A recent report from a publication in Iowa says ’tis not so. It was the Normans who wished it on us through their Concwest of England, says Dr. Ernest C. Fossum at Iowa State College. For some cwaint reason they figured their French “qu”, derived from the Latin, was easier to sound than the Old English (Anglo-Saxon) “cw”. - We wouldn’t ewarrel with the French about it now, there being cwite enough to ewarrel about these days without that.

Then, in case you think you have troubles, there comes a story from Porta Rico about the birth of quadruplets. “The father is listed as unemployed,” continued the story. If ever there were an understatement, that’s it! He’s going to toe employed in the future, all right 1 Every time it'a feeding time, there’s not one bottle to fix, it’s four; every time a baby cries, it's four of ’em to get back to sleep; it ain’t one lot of diapers, it’s four lots! “Unemployed” . . .

The ceremony was performed by the Rev. (Macon P. Greene' on Uftlday, September 7, at 4:80 o’clock in the First Baptist church at Grundy, in the presence of the two families.

My friends tell me there will be terrific adjustments for him to make and that he will need much guidance. Should / keep him in private school? * > - ■' U hi. :aIt is difficult to give a point-blank answer to your question without knowing more about the situation than the question reveals. Is the public 'school to which you plan to send your son a good one? Is your boy normal in intelligence and in social adjustment? If your answer to these questions is in. the affirmative, you are wise in planning to send your son to the public school. If the school in question is very undesirable and if your son already is somewhat maladjusted, it may be wise to keep him where he now is. Of course, there will be difficult adjustments to make as your son goes to h'hcw school. But, after all, isn’t success its life largely dependent upon one’s ability to adjust himself to all sorts and. conditions of people? Isn’t it far better that your son iearn to make-this adjustment now, while he is at borne and under your sympathetic guidance, than at a later date? We can do too good a job of protecting our children, from the realities of life. Do not "be too disturbed if during the first days of school he appears to J>e somewhat dissatisfied. He may even" plead to be sent back .to the private school. Be sympathetic and understanding, but donVyield to his plea. It, at the close of the year, he still is unhappy, assure hint that you then will! consider whether or not to return him to the private school. £ " . Cutting Apron Strings m■ .

Please, ii there any materia! available that can he ufr help and comfort to parents o) vyoung adults" who yet want to help them? , , .-.l wonder if yjh#r problem does not lit in the fact that, Viithout realising it you have failed to cut the apron string: ‘hat have bound your daughters to you ’Evidently they have decided to do the cutting themselves and since you have not as yet atcquifiscedl to the idea thai they are povr grown, op and fcavie then own lives to live, you are troubled and .4: bit- resentful. »" Let me urge you, therefore, to accep x ' —— ***» m«v»vtviv, iv ; • iact that you have largely fulfiUet '41 M your responsibility to your daughters and that from now on they are pretty . much on their own so far as their ideas and decisions-are concerned. This will not be easy, I know. Neither does it < mean that they will not continue to seek your judgment—at’ times. (Incidentally, they are much more likely to seek it If you do notoffer it gratisat every opportunity 1)_ But your clue is to treat them as adults. A final word. Not only Jet your ' daughters think and act for themselves, but rejoice when they do so. Don’t act the martyr or pout or “suffer silently” when they disagree with you. Don’t argue. Tensions will be, reduced and you can begin really to enjoy your daughters. Grown-up children can be fun, if we’ve cut the apron strings. Displaced Babies' How may l get an older chi’d to treat a baby with respect and tender• ness? s First, be certain that-you are giving the older child plenty of love and affection. She may feel that the baby has come between you, and that you no longer care for her as much as you formerly did. If so, it is almost inevitable that she should have a feeling of • resentment toward the baby. Feeling as she does, it is not strange I hat site does not treat the baby with respect and * tenderness. To counteract this feeling, it is-ainportant that each day *you arrange to „ have some time alone with the olden The tattle-tale may feel neglected.

If you detect tliat she wants to be babied or 'Cuddled, as she may, grant her desire, Feclljyj 'secure in'your affpetkm, she will be much more inclined to treat Uie ' baby with'respect and tenfferncss. Second, do not constantly.,urge tit? older child to show more respect for the baby. Neither should you scokl or nag her for not doing so. Whenever site does show a feeling of tenderness toward her, let her know how pleased you are. It will help, too, if you talk to the baby in the presence of the older child about the fine sister she has (even though the. . baby doesn’t understand you). , :s .liT? • Third, let the older, child have certain duties in connection with the care of the baby, but be certain these dutic* I; are pleasant.

Also looked at the stylish stud pofiy the Greenaways have recently purchased and which should prove a decided asset .to them as their -pony enterprise is proving quite popular among tourists attracted by the Greenaway’s farm sign located on their property on Route 211, southwest of Washington.

Fred Dreiling, associafcehorticulturist at VPI, points out that' the new UJS. grades, being run on a trial basis fop 1951, are designed to “help the fruit grower help himself." Growers, he says, have the aid of fruit inspectors hired to help maintain the standard- approved by growers from all areas of the country. Dreiling’s advice is to put apples whieh “don’t look good” in a lower grade, even though they will technically pass for a higher grade. This, he says,, will mean repeated sales and a sound reputation. , - ---ff —- ' No contestant can maintain high principles if the only objective, is to win, whether it be football, business, politics or anything else that engages the attention of mankind.
