Sprays Cause Yellowing Trees A Throughout the county it has been noticed that many trees are as yellow as iti fall of the year. Much comment lias arisen; some people thought it was a locust blight; some thought the maple trees were affected. Someone has noticed that the "blighted” trees seem to5 be near the cross-country power lines, so the conclusion is reached that a chemical spray has been used to help keep down the problem of trimming trees. ff'RIAL JUSTICE COURT I The case of Commonwealth vs William “Bill” Starks, which was to be tried by Judge B.

Problems concern.ing Social JSgssmly~payssestsr°oi any -^qaestiotiS" needing answers, may be brought to the representative at the Courthouse on the 4th Wednesday of each month. Selective Service News Major General Lewis B. Hershey, director of Selective Service, said today that local boards have been advised that a high school, college or university student irt a foreign country may be deferred if the evidence-submitted is sufficient to convince the local board that his work is satisfactory and that his activity in study is “necessary to maintenance of the national health, safety or interest of the United States.” Officials at national headquarters stressed that the advice, does not mean blanket deferment of the students in foreign countries and that they are under the same obligation to keep their local boards informed of their student status as are students studying in this. country. The advice was sent to the form of an amended operations bulletin i?Jo. 6$ clarifying the original operations bulletin, which has been generally interpreted to mean that student deferments for students attending foreign educational institutions were limited to Rhodes Scholars and Fullbright Exchange students. The amended bulletin follows: 1. The provisions of section 1622. 25 (a).of the selective service regulations contain ample authority for a local board to classify a registrant in class II-S who is a student or who has been enrolled as a student at a college, university, or similar institution of learning located outside the United States when the local board - determines that the ' registrant’s activity in study is necessary to the .maintenance of the national health, safety or interest of the United States. Before classifying any such student in class II-S, the evidence submitted by or on behalf of the registrant should be sufficient to convince the local board that he is satisfactory pursuing a s full-time of instruction at a college, university or similar institution of learning and that, hisdeferrment to pursue such study is necessary to the maintenance of the national health, safety or interest of the United States. 2. A registrant who is a student or who has been enrolled as a student at a high school, college, university, or similar institution of learning located outside the United States may qualify for class 1-S within the applicable provisions of section 6 (i) of the Universal Military Train-V ing and Service Act, as mended, and section 1622.15 of the selective service regulations when the evidence submitted is sufficient to convince the local l>oard that he is satisfactorily pursuing a full-time course of in- - struction at a high school, college, university, or similar institution of leanring within the meaning and intent of the provisions of section 6 (i) of the Universal Military Training and Service Act, as amended.* Birth Announcement First Lt. and MrsT W.

Salem road, both cars- were too close when seen by the drivers to pull out sufficiently before colliding. * Mrs. Keyser was rushed to the hospital in Front'Royal, where an x-ray showed a dislocation of one hip, bruises and cuts. Capt. Weiner, was taken to Walter Reed, where diagnosis showed 3 broken ribs, and bruises. George Pullen, Jr.j was not taken to the hospital until Monday suffering from ' a deep laceration on his forehead "and"•ether minpr injuries! « * * Vasyl Sereda Found Guilty Draws 3^-Year Sentence V*syl Sereda, a 23-year-old Ukranian displaced person wai found guilty of draft evasion by a Federal court this week and sentenced to 3 Vi years in jail. Sereda, a conscientious objector wnd claims to have served in Hitler s slave labor army, received che sentence from Federal Judge A. D. Barksdale Monday in Lynchburg. Earlier, a U. S. District Court jury took,!? minutest cf.nd the youth guilty. Sereda’s family came to this country to work on the farm of C. _B. Hite in 1944 and registered with the Rappahannock draft -board. He later moved to Newark, “All ray life I get in trouble,” Sereda said when questioned. He had lived with his parents snd two sisters at Sushno, a small Ukraman village, when Hitler’s legion’s grabbed a number of the families for slave labor. It was during an air raid that ms father, Juhym, who speaks no English, lost the entire elbow of. his left arm, leaving it useless. .^ter * in the labor foattaions, liberation came in 1946 -and the family moved to m DP cemp at Hanover in Germany. f rom there they came to Rappahannock Via New York. ^ Sereda said his objection to war stemmed from his training and baptism in the Ukrsnian Baptist Church of the Slavic Baptist Union. ' ,ltt any wm, but said he (would have served his country in his best way. He pleaded ignorance to a preinduction physical. Had he taken this* Sereda said* his bad eyes tod stomach ulcers would probably have kept him out. ^ t Attorney General R. Roy Rush asked the jury to return a “so- V vere penalty." Hush said he had consulted with the youth, and Sereda had consented to be inducted. The lawyer said he had arranged this but Sereda changed his mind and wanted to be inducted at his own convenience. Mrs. Mary R. Miller, clerk of the Rappahannock draft board where Sereda first registered, said the youth asserted he was opposed to bearing arms because of his religious beliefs. He said, the clerk testified, he would be willing to -serve as a non-combatant. When the youth moved to Newark, Mrs. Miller said, he had re- ; classified himself as an objector not opposed to non-combatant duty and ordered to report for his physical examination. Later, he was allowed to again claim exemption as an alien and waived his right to ever become a citizen. When the draft law was amended making aliens subject to the draft, Sereda iwas given his first classification again, and ordered to report for induction. Judge Barksdale said* he was “skeptical” of Sereda being a conscientious objector when the youth was sentenced. The magistrate branded Sereda’s action “A case a of gross ingratitude on the part of this young 4 man and his family." 6 It is the “duty of this young f man to bear the same obligations j as those of citizens who live here," ? he continued. f ■' i ;■ FLINT HILL BIBLE SCHOOL The Flint Hill Bible School began Monday Morning June 16 and will continue until June 20.

News Published Thursday Morning it ■ Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia * Dial Washington 2851 J^UCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia, _ Subscription; .... $2.00 a year The Conservative Choice It’s getting close enough to July 15 for all the voters to be reminding themselves of their vots .ing duty. That’s the day of the State Democratic primary, when the people of the Old Dominion will choose their Senator. Down in the south and southwestern part of the State Mr. Francis Pickens Miller is making a loud and long campaign against ““Senator Byrd. Mr. Miller has even gone so far as to state that “On every one of the great issues which have confronted him during his administration, the President (Truman) has made the right decision.” The Winchester Evening Star answered that one with the following: “Consider that statement again: EVERY major decision of Truman’s has been right, in the opin—ion of Mr. F. P. Miller. Frankly, we doubt that even Harr£ Vaughan would go so far as to say that everything Mr. Truman has done has been right. It would seem that Mr. Miller, in his admiration for Mr. Truman, is even out-Vaughaning General Vaughan.”_ Senator Byrd stands firmly for a policy of honesty and economical government. His record shows it plainly. The opposition of Mr. Miller seems to sum up to be that of the untried politician who aspires to sit in a Senate seat graced for many years by conservative, clearthinking, leve 1-headed business men. The faith of the people in Byrd rests in their knowledge of him. ' He has made a success of his own business and that qualifies him to handle our business in the government. He has worked and he has respect for work and the money that comes from work. He has respect and understanding for the independent man who is trying to make a living in this world; and Byrd holds no part with socialism and socialistic schemes.

His attitudes on occasions have smacked of benevolent patronage, and that galls the average working man who is sweating away daily to buy food and still have enough to pay his taxes. It is up to every citizen to get himself to the polls on July lb. In these troubled times, we Virginians can know that we have Senator Byrd to stand fearlessly for every man’s right to work and make a living in a free nation. We need not go so far nor so extravagantly in our praise of Sena-^ tor Byrd as did Mr. Miller in his praise of Mr. Truman. Senator Byrd may make a mistake, and he may not be 100 per cent perfect—but his record shows that he’ll he right so much of the time that we’ll he safer and the nation will have a better chance to stay free. GARDEN SPOTS * The garden spots of the world are small communities. They have their faults — goodness knows!— but their values far out-weigh the deficits. Take Sperryville as an example. There are thousands of small communities in the 48 states .that compare in size, but you can bet your bottom nickel there isn't another community exactly like Sperryville. For its population, there is a larger proportion of “characters” than one could find (without a pretty diligent search. The community has a working spirit that couldi well be copied. When the “Sperryvillians” (and that's what, they call themselves) decide to work together on a community project, someone starts * as leader, and it makes no difference who he is, the rest of the community falls in line to do its part. They tease and joke with each other; sometimes they almost come to blows; but let a bit of trouble 'befall some member of the community, and everyone shows up to see if he can help out. Flint Hill is another community with the co-operative spirit. It can be exhibited in numbers of instances, with one of the easiest to see being that of the co-operative street lighting. They don’t leave the job to a few citizens; they all work together. Amissville is at present showing the community spirit.

Of course, they've got to have their fun along the way, so the rural mail carrier announced the organization of the fire - company with: “The folks at Amissville are losing their faith; they’re learning to fight fire." . Woodville is a community separate unto itself—certainly in personality. The country store there is one you read about—and no one would believe it unless you saw it; and then you'd have to hang around for several years in order to catch up with all the news, it may appear to the tourist that Woodville is a “wide-place-inthe-road,” but visit around the village a bit and you’ll find a (wideawake group. Letter to Editor The Woman Council needs to be congratulated for their victory in the election. Let us hope their ad- * ministration will be very successful. The council should be commended for the efforts they have put forth in trying to improve the town physically and materially. It is also said that the town !b better off financially than it has ever been. However, there are a few things that remain to be said. All of us will admit that politics is politics. There is one thing to remember about politics—namely— that the balancing power in our government has been brought about and preserved because of the opposition in political parties. Take a look at Jhe countries be-, hind the "iron Curtain”' because of the One-Party-System. They put up their candidates, picture the good things they have done and dare you not to vote for them. A candidate on the losing side was contacted in the early morning before election by a citizen on the Woman’s Party. His friendship was. challenged. As a result he gave up his political freedom for friendship in order to elect the women. A relative of one of the members of the council seems to think that grudges will be held until the next election because of the way certain ones voted. If there are any grudges, they were there before election. A man who was brave enough to oppose the women as candidates certainly would not hold, a grudge against anyone who did1 riot vote for him. It would he very unfortunate if politics should get on that level in a small community like this one. Good sportsmanship is being able to take either victory or defeated graciously and impartially. The winning party is not being very gracious when they resort to “smear tactics.” Its about time some of them were taking an inventory of them Pitts Park THEATRE Front Royal, Virginia THURSDAY, JUNE 19 MEL FERRER MIROSLAVA — in — ‘THE BRAVE BULLS” FB.L - SAT., JUNE 20 - 21 TROPICAL TREASURE! and TEMPTATION! “MARA MARU” SUN. - MON. - TUES.

The minorityvoters should not be criticized by the opposed party because of the stand they took in the election. If so, then what has became of our political freedom? Do we still in America have the right to express oursejves at the polls as we see fit without being subjected to adverse criticism. Is each of us still an individual or are we' puppets subject fo the will of the power in control ? - — —If individualism is the center of education today, should it just be in the schools, or all phases of life, including politics ? - - Why not place individualism at the polls where it was when our nation first grew up and let the chips fall where they will. Its about time that some of the people in this community realized that each person is an American citizen entitled to certain rights regardless of his color, creed, or class. —Matilda Walker California is short one editor because he got his necktie caught in a newspaper press.

It’s fairly confusing; I’ll pass the information on and let others do the worrying. The principal contributing \ cause to organized gambling is the I high birth rate of suckers. —HIRED HANDS By Georg* Peck it’s a simple story—I’ve told it before and you’ve probably heard it many times—bdt it packs such a terrific moral that it cannot he told too often. {It’s the tale of the harassed farmer, who in desperation, hired | a hand whose qualifications for the f job seemed rather dubious. To the farmer’s question as to iwhat the prospective employee knew about farming, the applicant replied, “Well, I know how to sleep on a windy night.’’ The farmer failed to see just hpw ability to sleep on windy nights could qualify a man to be a good farm hand. However, he was so badly in need of help that he hired the man. To the farmer's agreeable surprise, the new hand more than ‘ measured up. He was a hard, tireless and efficient worker. Not only did he do all that the farmer told him to do, but he undertook a lot of extra jobs on his own. -' Then, one night came a big wind. It awakened the farmer. Remembering the damage done by previous winds, he sprang out of bed ready to go into action. He called to the new hired hand to get up. Getting no response, he went to his room, shouted at him, shook him, but all he could elicit* " was a grunt. That hired hand hadn't been kidding when he said, “Well, I know how to sleep on windy nights.” Disgusted, the farmer went out alone to the barn expecting to find doors burst open and things blown hither and yon. To his delighted surprise, all was shipshape. Some of the odd jobs' the hired hand had done on his own had consisted of fastening securely anything and everything that the wind might damage. At long last it dawned on the farmer that being able to sleep on windy nights was proof positive of farming ability, not to mention evidence of foresight And wisdom. He switched from inwardly cussing out his hired hand to mentally praising him. Now, there is a lesson to be learned from this simple story that applies to the present sad state of our national affairs. Over the past 20 years our economy has gotten into a sad state of disrepair, because we have not been too careful in selecting our hired hands—we have put too many on the job who haven’t the faintest^ idea of HOW TO SLEEP ON WINDY NIGHTS. Next November 4th, we, the people, are going to hire a large number of new hands, including :Vf ODD LOTS OF PAINTS Some Sold As High As $5.00 A Gallon COME IN AND LOOK OVER THIS ASSORTMENT TROUT DRUG COMPANY FRONT ROYAL, VIRGINIA .

In hiring these hands we must make sure that they have the “know-how" an^ the will to repair our badly damaged economy. We must have their assurance that THEY KNOW HOW TO SLEEP ON WINDY NIGHTS. We must make certain that those we elect to the Presidency, the Senate and the House are the type who can and will batten up the doors and (windows of, plug up the leaks in, and sweep away the dirt and rubbish from our national economy.-— --— Then, after we hav,e hired these new hands, let’s keep everlastingly 'at them to make them live up to the high promises made in their campaign speeches. We must insist that they pare the budget, cut taxes, eliminate waste and corruption, weed out unnecessary federal payrollers and enact labor legislation fair to all. They'll listen, for after all, they are our hired hands—we voters are their, boss. Having,the power to hire, we also have the .power to fire. Our job will not be finished when iwe hire them by voting them in. We will constantly have to let them know that they are our servants. We must resolve now to let our Congressman and our two U.S. Senators hear from us regularly after we hire them, that is, if we, too, would like to get back to BEING ABLE TO SLEEP ON WINDY NIGHTS. Soil Saver Notes There are many thoughtless people who think that the products of the land are _ inexhaustible. They believe this because stores have an abundance of food on the shelves ; they turn the tap and water gushes forth. All the good things of life are available in abundance if you have the price to pay for them. Perhaps the inhabitants of ancient empires that rimmed the Mediterranean, and those great cities are now buried under debris of formerly productive land, also thought the soil was inexhausitble. It has been said that those who do not learn by the mistakes of history are doomed to repeat them. There is evidence that we are repeating them. - - ;j Here are some facts: farm land in the United States totaling approximately one hundred million acres, has been totally destroyed for productive use for many generations to come. Another one hdhdred miUiori^acres of farm land are severely damaged through erosion. According ,to estimates f Stop At The ATLANTIC SIGN J. BRADLEY ATKINS Atlantic Service Station SPERRY VILLE,” VA. L. B. DULIN, JR. DISTRIBUTOR Atlantic Refining Company CULPEPER, YJL . rn*m ■■■■ " 1 m m -m ;• / . . .. ' , - . . - * from Conservation Service, 600,000 acres are damaged beyond profitable use each year. Putting it another way five thousand 100acre farms are washed away each year due to failure to recognize the needs for conservation. And there is little new land left that can be brought into cultivation. One of the last remaining “new” land frontiers lies in the coastal plain of iNorth Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. This land can be reclaimed only -by drainage. Another important fact — experts tell us that 2 acres of land are required to feed, clothe, and maintain every man, woman and child in the United States. We are now close to 2 acres per individual in the U. sS., based on our present population. But our papulation is growing rapidly and within the next 20 years it is expected to reach 170-million. This means less and less land to feed more and more people. Conservation of soil and water to maintain and improve its productiveness is imperative now if iwe are to maintain our present standard of living. .; ■ ../• W.

Cumberland Ilniver sity, Lebanon, Tennessee, and there received the decree of Bachelor of Laws, June 2, 1904. He immediately entered the private practice of law at Keystone, McDowell county, West Virginia. Less than one year later he returned to his Alma Mater, on May 23, 1905, to marry Andrea Martin, daughter of Dr. ^Andrew B. Martin, one of his Law Professors.

Gatley, who purchased the old Henry place, near Slate Mills, states that beginning about November hell be a Virginian and a resident of Rappahannock. Mr. Gatley points out vefy firmly that, though his present address is Washington, D. G, he's a bona fide Virginian 'because seven generations ago the family lived in the Old Dominion, in Buckingham county. His five-great-grandsire had the poor judgement to leave the great state in 1790, and Mr. Gatley thinks he shall give the story the proper setting come .next November._' Mr. Gatley says he's restoring the old place with the use of a bulldozer. The original house was unfit for repair, so he tore it down and is rebuilding about 50 feet from the original site. On his visit in the county this week he was disappointed because he missed getting some of the strawberries he had read about in Rappahannock, but the crop was gone before he made inquiries. Mr. and Mrs. Edward Clark and daughter, Ruth Ann have moved in their new home on Fodder Stock Road. ._ V Sunday evening visitors in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Clark and daughter were Mr. and Mrs. Robert Frazier and son, Bobby and Mr, and Mrs. Randolph Beach and sons, Roger, Ralph and Sonny of Gainesville.

At Avon Mills This Sommer According to a bulletin issued in Fauquier county, the Virginia Symphony's summer Workshop will be established at Stuyvesant School in Warrenton. This announcement came from William Haaker, who said he will set up his headquarters at Warrenton. The Blue Ridge Music Festival 'concerts again will be held at Avon Mills, Washington. Four concerts are planned during August, with a possibility of a fifth concert scheduled at Middleburg Community Center. From 30 to 60 serious music students are expected in Warrenton through August for the summer workshop, states Mr. Haaker, who explained the move from Rappahannock “because of more adequate facilities made available by Stuyvesant School.” The purpose of the workshop is to train serious musicians for possible future place in the Virginia Symphony. The general curriculum will include music theory and private instruction in piano, vocal and instrumental parts. While individual and classroom ■work will be scheduled at Stuyvesant, some group instruction will be at Warrenton high school. Mr. Haaker announces the offering of a master class in piano twice a week, which will be open to auditors as well as students. A Baldwin concert-grand piano will be moved into the high school auditorium for the work. Mr. Haaker also said there will be twice-a-week classes in com-. munity'chorus work offered for •local people, including choirs, at nominal tuition. Those interested should contact Mrs. John Moc—Donnell or Mrs. L. L. Hutchison, members of the Warrenton Virginia Symphony guild. This announcement of the proposed concerts at Avon Mills will be notice for Rappahannock people to begin getting their tickets. Ticket sales had been low because no definite information could be obtained as to whether or not the concerts would be held at the old mill. Charles Wood at Flint Hill will reserve a ticket for you, or - he will tell you the nearest neighbor who has tickets available for your purchase. Some people always contribute heat but nit light t oa discussion. FOR MR. FIXIT £2gwIf the man of the house has the true ‘Til fix it myself” spirit, mishaps won’t discourage him, but it is wise to keep the medicine cabinet well stocked with the f;rstaid materials needed for the treatment of minor wounds, Most men dislike covering a small hurt with a dressing that will be more conspicuous than the hurt, and that will quickly become * soiled. The new flesh-colored, ready-to-use plastic dressings, with the gauze pad already affixed to the adhesive, meet this objection. The rectangular plastic strips, square patches and round spots (they all. come in the same 'box) look and fit like a second skin. Like the skin, they can be washed clean without being washed off. It isn’t easy to keep a dressing on a barked knuckle, the palm of the hand or a skinned elbow. Another advantage of the plastic dressings is that they are elastic. They ^retch with the flexing of the joints and stay where they belong instead of pulling out of place. Both the square patches and the circular spots seal all around to keep out dirt and rnois; ture. No one is immune to the risk of infection. Infection has turned many minor hurts into disabling injuries. Thorough cleansing of the wound and a protective dressing to keep it clean are the best safeguards against infection. They should never be omitted .to matter how small the wound.^ Catholic Motor Chapel At Etlan June 16-29 The Catholic Motor Chapel, “St. Mary’s of the Highway” stays at Etlan from June 16 through June 29.

White and Mrs. Sarah Turner, Miss Barbara Williams and Mrs. John Brooks attended the Macedonia •Club Anniversary at the home of Eider James Banister at Millwood, Wednesday night 1 The O. R. Johnson Chapter of The New Farmers of Ametfpa was highly represented at the 26 /*mual State Convention which was held at the Virginia State College from’ June 9 tp June 12 inclusive. At the present date we have 27 active members in the O. R. Johnson Chapter. Thirteen members attended the State Convention Which number was a tie with two other chapters for having the largest delegation of the 55 chapters in the State of Virginia. Charles Wesley Lewis, who is a Carver Regional High School, served as secretary on the Federations Committee. He also was one of the candidates running for the position of N. F. A. State Treasurer. After an embattled two-day campaign the voting proved the campaign to have been a success, for Charles was elected State Treasurer for the coming year. He succeeds John Francis who is also a member of the O. R. Johnson Chapter and who has done a creditable job in holding that position. Daniel Minor represented the O. R. Johnson on the nominating committee, and Solomon Williams served on the program of work committee. Eugene Ferguson, Adelbert Triplett and Robert Johnson constituted the O. R. Johnson judging team with John Gales alternate. In compteting in, rough competition against some thirty odd teams, the O. R. Johnson judging team won fifth place. Adelbert Triplett won a silver metal for having had the second highest individual score among ninety some boys. We are aware of the fact that no man was ever endowed with a judgment so correct and judicious, but that circumstances, time and experience would teach him something new. Although some of the numbers were not obligated to specific convention assignment, they received rich and valuable experience in attending. We are of the expectation that much wilL grow , .out - of the accpurecL experiences of the members that attended the convention in making their contributions to the local chapter. —F.W.
