Many theories were advanced. The og might have worms, might have leen poisoned, or might have what t commonly called running-fits.

RAPPAHANNOCK HUNT A field of seventeen riders met at Thornton Hill Farm, Thursday, January 22. There were five hunts represented: Edward Durell, M.F.H. of Rocky Fork-Headley Hunt of Ohio; Oliver Durant, Joint M.F.H., Louis Somerville and Freddie Jackson from Hazelmere Hounds; Alexander McKay-Smith, M.F.H., Mrs. Alexander McKay-Smith, Richard Dole and Robert Scott of the Blue Ridge Hunt; Mrs. W.

Due to warm weather and a late start, scenting was extremely poor. Hounds drew blanks on Mason, Fielding and Poortown mountains, but the field enjoyed the ride and the visitors were especially complimentary of the beautiful oountiy. However, when hounds drew Turkey, they jumped a grey fox immediately and led seventeen riders on a grand five-mile run—from all reports it was as exciting as any steeple chase. The fox was finally denned at the foot of the mountain. Cbnrcli Services The Rev. S.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBtl89kX> THURSDAY MORNING 7 At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2S61 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE--f— Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at die post office at Washingtdn, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance)--r— $2.00 a year The Gentlemen’s Agreement Social Security News One of the most amusing stories of the past ten days is the one that comes from the newspapers in our neighboring (and associated) county of Loudoun. According to one of the Leesburg papers, the citizens of that beautiful—and large—county were “miffed" (that’s their word) with the Governor in his appointment of Rappahannock's Rayner V. Snead as Judge of the Circuit for the three counties of Loudoun, Fauquier and Rappahannock. Stated the Loudotfn paper, it had always been a ‘gentlemen’s agreement' that the judge would alternate between Loudoun and Fauquier. Fauquier had had two judges and Loudoun one; they seemed to think it was their turn again. All this "gentlemen’s agreement” sounds very fine—but what does that make Rappahannock? The red-headed step-child? It gives the impression that die small, 6,000-peopled county with the four-syllable name was being treated like the baby of the family with the two bigger kids pushing him aside while they hogged all the best Rappahannock is definiely pleased at the appointment of Judge Snead. We know he’s a good man, and we have thorough confidence that he will prove his value. We are glad, too, that finally someone has remembered that Rappahannock is still on the map. We are pleased that the county has been given the opportunity by Governor Battle to let the sterling qualities of Rappahannock be shown in the new Judge. Pity the Poor Judge It’s understood that Judge Rayner V. Snead has expressed sympathy for Governor Battle in the job he had of appointing a Judge. The new Judge has had to appoint a new Commonwealth Attorney, and it has been a trying task. Both of the candidates were about equal in qualifications, and about equal in popularity. Judge Snead knew when he made the appointment that he had two wildcats by the tail. The friends of each, candidate were many, and the many friends were going to be disappointed when their man didn’t get the job. It would have been understandable had the Judge hunted for a third “dark horse" for the job, rather than face the choice between the two candidates. What’s In A Name? By Maurice R. Franks {EDITOR'S NOTE: Maurice R. Franks is President of the National Labor-Management Foundation and Editor of its official publication, PARTNERS.) To study the public, pronouncements of our politicians is to wonder if , they will ever learn the basic facts about labor. Too many of them seem to regard unions and their leaders as all there is to the picture. In general, even our topflight political minds overtook the obvious fact that there are several important segments to our American industrial society—and that their combined enterprise has but one effective purpose; to serve the general public, the customer. Most words that are written or spoken on the subject of labor relations seem to lose sight of the fact that labor in this country does not consist of union labor, exclusively. This being the case, it would be well for our politicians—particularly the men charged with producing legislation governing labor—to get down to brass tacks in dealing with the problem and to realize, before they realise anything else, that union labor in this country is only a minority group when compared to American labor as a whole. The statistics are on record for each and every one of us: Out of our 60-odd million workers, only 16 million—or approximately 25 per cent—are As part of their insurance protection, at least 3 million self-employed persons soon will be able to point with confidence to Federal old-age and survivors. This statement was made today by Miss Henrietta Mode, Field Representative of the Alexandria social security office. Miss Mode said that these individuals have full credit for their self-employment earnings after 1950 and so gre fully insured for future payments as soon as they file their final 1952 income tax returns. To stay insured, they must continue to report their earnings and pay the social ecurity tax once every year. Among beneficiaries of social security now coming on the rolls, the average retirement payment to a man without dependents is $65 a month for an aged couple the average is about $103 a month, and to a widow with two children, in the neighborhood of $130 a month. Miss Mode urged all self-employed to keep accurate records and to be sure that the correct social security number and occupation are shown on C-a as submitted. This Schedule C-a the tax reti\m and attached Schedule should be attached to all income tax returns showing net profit from selfemployment of at least $400 in a year. Miss Mode also pointed out that since social security credits are based on accurate tax returns, it is greatly to the self-employed person’s own interest that the return be entirely correct. organized. Thus, if the matter of industrial relations is to be approached intelligently, full consideration must be directed to labor as the total occupational group, not merely to their organized minority. One would have to be naive indeed to assume that the activities of the organized few do not affect—and sometimes even injure—the unorganized many. And one would have to be less blessed with a sense of fair play than most of us „ are to assume that justice consists of stacking the cards in favor of the minority, simply because they have the loudest spokesman. To be guided by either false assumption is Unworthy of the very least of us who are proud to call ourselves Americans. As the 83rd Congress settles down to business, doubtless certain changes will be made in our so-called labor laws. But if these changes are to be beneficial to the nation as a whole, they must not be confined to technicalities, window dressing or downright camouflage. They must get down to brass tacks. They must take into consideration each of the four elements that make up the industrial picture: labor, management, capital investment and the general public. Psychologically, the problem begins with the very name of the law—that is, its official title. While not caring to engage the ghost of Shakesphere in a duel, we must insist that there ; is indeed something in a name. The title of a statue, for example, should certainly explain its essential coverage. , If this is true, then the title of our present labor law—the National Labor-Management Relations Act—is inexact, incomplete and inadequate for the area it purports, or should purport, to cover. For its province is industrial relations, wherein the public is very much concerned—not merely labor-management relations, wherein the public is all too frequently coldly ignored. Therefore, if we are to have an expressive and fully understandable tide for so vital an ace of legislation, it should be the “National Industrial Relations Act.' A tide of so all-inclusive and apt a character would offer at once a. psychological spark for the creation' of a law that would be equitable not only to our organized workers but to our unorganized wage earners as wed—with full and equal consider^*i • T Washington, D. C., As Viewed By Tour Senator, A. Willis Robertson “BUSINESSMAN” CABINET RAISES LEGAL PROBLEM Last November the American people clearly indicated a desire for more economy and efficiency in their government. In order to give the nation a “business” administration, President Eisenhower sought the services of some of the ablest businessmen in the nation. But, some of those businessmen found themselves confronted with a statutory provision against doing business with companies in which they had a financial interest. In hearings before the Senate Armed Services Committee it developed that Charles E. Wilson, chosen for Secretary of Defense, owned more than $2,500,000 worth of stock in General Motors, plus additional stock bonus rights and that the men Wilson had picked for his deputy and for Secretaries of he Army, Navy and Air Force also were substantially interested in companies which do business with the government. The pattern by which this problem could be solved was set several days later when Wilson indicated his willingness to dispose of his holdings although it might cost him $500„000 or more in addition to die loss he was taking by acepting a $22,500 salary instead of the $600,000 a year he had been geting. He had been preceded in this course however, by Mr. Anderson, of Texas the designee for Secretary of the Navy. Mr. Anderson, whom I personally know and greatly admire, knew what he was up against because several years ago he was seriously considered for appointment to the Federal Reserve Board. Carter Glass was a man who never dwelt in any twilight zone and when he drew the Federal Reserve Act, he wrote into it that no man should serve on that Board who was an officer or director of any hank, banking institution, trust company or Federal Reserve Bank or who held stock in any such institution. Anderson turned down the appointment to the Federal Reserve tion for the balance of the team: management, capital investment and, last but not least, the public One of the read devils in the law as it presently stands seems to be its widely-used nickname, the TaftHartley law. But this is a matter of no real moment, since it was merely derived—as is the case of names of its authors, who were Senator Robert A. Taft and ex-Congressman Fred A. Hartley.

But; when he went before the Armed Services Committee, he satisfied its members that he had divested himself of all financial interests which would in any way conflict with his duties as Secretary of the Navy. I have such high regard for Mr. Wilson’s ability to administer the demehse spending program economically and efficiently and such confidence in his personal integrity that 1 was pleased when he took the only logical step to bring his eligibility for public service into harmony with existing law. As I said, the country wants, and die country needs, a business administration because a government that is spending over seventy billions of dollars a year is a big business enterprise. It must be remembered, however, that there is a vital difference between government business and private business with respect to the overall objective. Our government was instituted, in the language of onr Constitution, Mto promote the general welfare.'* In other words, the purpose of government is to render service, while the primary purpose of private business is ' to make a profit on the money invested. For the industral leader, trained in the business of making a profit on his investment, to become a successful . statesmen^ it is necessary for him to be imbued with a sympathic understanding of the problems of the common man and to be motivated fay an ambition to promote the welfare of the masses.

Ruffner: “To the officers and men of the 45th Infantry Division: “This past year has not been an easy one. You have lived in extremes of heat and cold; borne hardships and privations; faced danger, loneliness, and death. Perhaps you have thought at times, that you were forgotten men in a forgotten war. “Despite all this, you have done a magnifiesent job—a job for which you and I and every free man can be proud. There is no necessity to recall for you here the glorious history of the 45th Division. But let me say, as I have said before, that you have added campaigns to that history that will take their place beside the justlyfamous struggles for Anzio, Sicily, and Salerno. "The battle for Old Baldy and T-Bone Hill was one of the hardest fought of this war. You faced the best of a ruthless Stad fanatic enemy and you beat him—beat him thoroughly and soundly. And you have done the same in smaller, but no less important, actions. “I am confident, as you begin your second year of fighting freedom's battle in Korea, that you will continue to serve your division, your country, and the United Nations in a way that will make you justifiably proud.

He’s real accommodating. He can take it to Warrenton. Then maybe the next bus coming along (no, don’t know when) will pick it up .and take it to Gainesville— if he remembers, otherwise, it will go on into Washington, D. C. From Gainesville (or D. C., whichever gets it) the package can then be transferred to another bus and sent to Front Royal. From Front Royal it will be transferred to another bus and sent to Winchester. Did you say you were in a hurry—or will it be all right if you get the package by Fourth of July?" “Is there another way? Oh, sure! I can send it by bus to Luray and then it can be transferred and sent up the Valley to you in Winchester.” “What happened to the regular bus?” Lawsy-mercy, Man! Where have you been? That doesn’t run except on Saturday. They took that off long ago!” "Now, sir, watch your language! There may be ladies present! Besides, I don’t run the bus company—and goodness knows, we in Rappahannock hate it bad enough that the bus doesn’t run through to Fredericksburg and Winchester." “O-kay, o-kay! Calm down! Well get the package to you, some way— we don’t know how.” (Under my breath, “Walk over here and get it, Bud; it’ll be quicker”) -.I o o o “Get in out of the rain. Baby," was thrown at me after last week’s paper. An editorial wanted to know why a school cost $10,000 per room, and commented that the price was too high. “You're sure a babe-in-the-woods! Wake up and find out a few of the facts of life! That new school down at Warrenton cost $32,000 per roost! Where havfc you been that you didn't know what it cost to build a school?" All right, all right; I give up. I just had some silly old-fashioned notion that when people didn't have a lot of money that they built a house that was serviceable and left the frills to their rich neighbors. There are not a lot of millionaires in Rapahannock to pour out taxes sufficient to build those fancy schools; it was hoped that some school plans could be found that would buikl a plain, serviceable school so the children would have better class rooms. I didn't mean to display my ignorance. 1 thought $10,000 per room was too high, and 1 poked a little innocent fun; now that the actual cost is $32,000 per room—I give up! lH refrain from future comment; I'm in figures beyond my comprehension, and 1 know it • • • If you must he profane; be forthright So say the experts, such as Shakespeare. Bill Stout, in a book about himself, recalls his early newspaper days when he had an .office close to Tyler MacWhor^er, the cartoonist, and Miss Beaumont, society editor. “She was a conscientious, precise little woman,” Stout says. “One day something disturbed her greatly and through the door came an exasp perated 'Oh, Heavens !’ Without looking up from his work Tyler boomed out, ‘Miss Beaumont, if you must, will you please say “Oh, Hell” instead of “Oh, Heavens!” It is twice as expressive and not half so profane.’ ” o o o Here’s another explanation of the simple “you all” which northerners persist in trying to make singular: “You-all” means race or section, Family, party, tribe, or clan. “You-all” means the whole connection Of the individual man. In the singular it’s never Used in this part of the land. But we give up hope of ever Making you-all understand. o o o PLAIN ARITHMETIC: Since you cannot refrain from drinking, why not start a saloon in your home? Be the only customer and you will not have to buy a license. Give your wife $55 to buy a case of whiskey. * There are 240 snorts in a case. Buy all of your drinks from your wife at 60 cents a snort and in 12 days, when the case is gone, your wife will have $89 to put ih the bank, and will have $55 to start up in business again. If you live 10 years and continue to buy all yoUr booze from your wife, and then die in your boots from the snakes, your widow will have $27,085.37 on deposit,* enough to bury you respectably, bring up your children, pay off the mortgage on the house, marry a decent man, and forget she ever knew you.
