Penalty Goes on Hay 2 If Taxes Not Filed A penalty of 10% and not less than £2.00 goes on the bill if state income and personal property taxes are not filed by May 1, states a notice from the office of the commissioner of Revenue. All tangible and yi tangible personal property must bd declared at a fair market value. Some misinformation has given the impression that a tax filed last year can just be carried over to this year, but this is not true; personal property must be filed every year. Poll Taxes Due May 2 For Primary Toting May 2, Saturday, is the final day for payment of poll taxes in order to vote ui the primary in July. It is safest to check at the treasurer’s office and make sure that taxes are paid. New voters, who will be 21 before the November election, are eligible to vote in both the primary and the election without payment of poll taxes; in order to vote in the primary however, the just-21 or to-be-21 voters must register 30 days prior to the primaiy. The primary is July 14, so registration must be made before June 13. REVIVAL AT FLINT HILL The Baptist-Methodist revival begins in Flint Hill Sunday night, April 26,, at 7:30. Rev. R. L.

No doubt many of us (including myself) were wishing for the impossible in hoping that our county-wide dog vaccination program last year would be the answer to and practically the end of the epidemic. There is no doubt about the probability of our current rabies problem being‘much more serious had not our Board of Supervisors passed the vaccination ordinance however it now appears we should continue vaccination this year and perhaps for several years. Throughout all of 1952 there were hut 13 positive laboratory liagnosises made while since March 12 of this year there have been 8 positive rabies lab. reports on animals In addition the county Health Dept reports that * ■ 6 persons who have been bitten m the last month have taken the Pasteur treatment; four of these persons being Rappahannock citizens and two ■being outsiders bitten while visiting in the county. We must remember that while high immunization can be had through vaccination NO VACCINE INSURES 100% IMMUNIZATION. We must remember that any county-wide Rabies Control program requires absolute cooperation on the (See RAPP-CHATS, page 10) Lt. Hedrick Stationed in Kansas Lt. Junior Grade William B.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2861 Publisher LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE 'Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION : (in advance)-$2.00 a year Letter to the Editor: A trip around the Town of Washington, Virginia this morning was most rewarding. The property of most of the citizens was spic and span with freshly cleaned yards and gardens and mowed grass. Since this is the half-way mark of Clean-up Week, this is most gratfying and I am sure I speak for the Town Council as well as myself in thanking everyone for their splendid co-operation and effort in making the campaign a success. The FFA Boys did an outstanding job in cleaning the Playground and the Rappahannock News on their advance publicity and they are to be commended for their effort for the benefit of the whole community. (Boy Scouts for their part in the clean-up program have planned an old bottle and paper collection after school is out.) 4k. State of Virginia is host to the , nation during the annual Garden Week. Even though there will be no gardens open in this immediate vicinity, there will be many tourists passing through and the appearance of our community will make a lasting impression. It is a much nicer feeling to be proud of our Town, rather than apologetic, so let’s everyone make an extra effort to put our best foot forward. Thanking everyone, again, for their co-operation, Sincerely, Dorothy G. Davis, Mayor. Washington D. C. As Viewed By Your Senator, A. Willis Robertson HOW SUBMERGED LANDS BILL AFFECTS VIRGINIA - During the Senate’s debate on the Submerged Lands Bill I have been somewhat disturbed by indications of a widespread misunderstanding of the issues involved. Many of the letters I received from obviously sincere and intelligent Virginia constituents suggested that they believed: (1) that the pending proposal would rob most of the states, including Virginia, for the special (benefit of a few favored states with oil resources off their coastline; (2) that passage of this bill would de Oi STRASBURG ROAD FRONT ROYAL THURS.-FRI., APRIL 23 - 24 ALAN LADD _ PHYLLIS CALVERT “APPOINTMENT WITH DANGER” SATURDAY, APRIL 26 EDMOND O’BRIEN DEAN JAGGER “WARPATH” (Color by Technicolor) SUN.-MON., APRIL 26 - 27 MAUREEN O’SULLIVAN EDMUND GWENN _in_ “BONZO GOES TO COLLEGE”, TUBS, i WED. - THURS.

J. Res. 13, as the bill before the Senate is known, merely provides that the States shall have clear title to ownership'of lands beneath navigable waters within their boundaries and of the resources on or in those lands and that the federal government gives up any claim to such property. Not provision is made with respect to resources of the continental shelf, which lies beyond the historical three miles boundaries of the coastal states and the bill would have no effect on the Constitutional powers of the federal government to regulate commerce, provide for the common defense or to conduct international affairs in the navigable waters within state boundaries. It is only in recent ye?r" that the federal government has claimed these off-shore property rights but the states had enjoyed them for many years and developed great wealth in seafood industries, sand and mineral extraction, filling-in to make new lands and building structures such as piers over the waters. Virginia, of course, has been a participant in this program and would have much to lose if the federal claims were sustained. That the pending bill is not something of selfish interest to only a few states is indicated by the fact that since 1938 officials of 47 states have appeared in support of similar THURSDAY, APRIL 23 DONALD O’CONNOR “FRANCIS Goes to the Races*9 Plus: Cartoon PITTS On Brandy Road ( Rt. 16) 11 miles North of CULPEPER 2 SHOWS NIGHTLY 7:30 A 9/30 A CAR FULL for $1.00 Pins: 20c tax .. .

As for legal aspects, the Supreme Court said in 1845 that “die shores of navigable waters, and the soils under them were not granted by the Constitution to the United States, hut were reserved to tjie states respectively,” and “the new states have the same rights, sovereignty and jurisdiction over this subject as the original states." That rule has been accepted and affirmed in 52 Supreme Court decisions and in 244 state and federal court decisions. There arc only three recent cases which have raised a doubt and made Congressional action necessary for clarification. The question of funds for public schools is not, in my opinion, a legitimate issue in considering this bill. If the property rights morally belong to the states, we would not be justified in robbing them simply to make worthwhile use of the revenue. And, even if the oil resources under our coastal waters belonged to the federal government, I would oppose using that source of revenue for operating expenses of our schools because, as I indicated- in this column recently, compromising strings would be attached to the funds. Even though federal aid to education were a proper and desirable government function-such aid geared to receipts from offshore oil would be wholly unsatisfactory. The amount of such revenue would be governed by the price of oil and current production, even in war times. In peace time, the government would undoubtedly reserve that resource for a future emergency. miHHHiiNHNimnNiiHHiininnimnHiuHniiHuiiiiM | The Time Hob Come/ | the Walrus said . . • j wnaiwiu ittuatiMfiMiii Is there a preacher in the house?

Nobody seems to know, dear friend, “but it was a happy thought. Perhaps all the Japanese beetles have frozen. It's nice to think that some good has come from the killing cold. i o o o After the kindly suggestion that perhaps the beetles are all dead, it is unkind to remind that this is 17-year locust season.

WALRUS— 1 (Continued from page 2) where they have been developing for 17 years. Then will come the spectacular individual struggles in which the cicades burst from their old shells and emerge as soft, milky-pale winged adults, says the National Geographic Society. They will harden by morning into active 1 % inch black insects with transparent, orange-veined wings and fiery red eyes. Soon they will begin their resounding daytime wailing. They feed harmlessly on pliht fluids and mate during the month before they die. They will also be fed on by birds, insects and animals. BROOD X These creatures, Brood X of the periodical cicades are cousins to the harvest fly. Scientists designate the 17-year broods by Roman Numerals from I to XVII. Brood X (1936, 1953, 1970) is the largest. It will appear throughout the eastern k United States from New England to Wisconsin and down through Georgia with heavy concentrations in ithe middle Atlantic seaboard • states.

A dwarf variety will emerge at the same time. Indians regarded the mysterious appearance of the cicadas with awe as did early European settlers. When the Pilgrims at Plymouth Colony first heard the cicadas keening ^n 1634, they mistook them for crop?devouring locusts and feared a plague such as ravaged Pharaoh’s Egypt in Bibical times. Thus the popular misnomer “locust” originated, though cicadas are in no way related to those hungryjawed grasshoppers. Seventeen year cicadas wear a dark “W” marked on each wing. Early settlers, noting that several conflicts closely followed cicada visits, regarded the insect as an omen of war. The creatures have no sting, but another superstition arose that they would sting babies to death. WOUND TREES The only serious harm done by cicadas is during their egg-laying process. The female chisels gashes in tree twigs with her long, spearlike ovipositor and deposits her 400-600 eggs in the slits. Such gashing often causes the twigs to wither. The cicada is hard on human eardrums^ So great is the din of a cicada ‘chorus that schools have had to'close because pupils could not concentrate on studies in such an uproar. One of the several cicada “tunes” sounds like a big knife being held against a coarse, whirling grindstone. Another, which gave colonists added fear of a Bibical plague, seems to intone the name of Egypt’s ruler, Pharaoh. The cicada sings with his stomach. Two abdominal drumheads of membrane are vibrated by powerful muscles to make the unnerving, dismal * “song.” Only the males sing, inspiring the ancient Greek, Xenarchus, to quip: “Happy are cicadas’ lives, for they all have silent wives.” VIRGINIA HOLSTEIN HEIFER SALE .

America’s newest atomic project is being rushed to completion in Pike CountyrOhio. Details are secret, of course. But this much is known: the A-bomb project will be the biggest single electric power customer in history. Two of the largest electric power plants in the world will supply the needed power. Together they will generate more electricity than New York City uses ... nearly as much as all the people and industries in Ohio now use. To speed America’s defense, they are being built fast. From the construction workers to the equipment manufacturers, everyone is geared to record-breaking performance. Thes« are impressive facts, but so is this fact... The" two big coal-buming electric plants were conceived, designed and are being built by a group of neighboring electric light and power companies. Fifteen of them have joined together to form the $400 million Ohio Valley Electric Corporation to finance and operate this huge power project. This means quick action for the AtomicEnergy Commission. For the companies will, supply urgently needed power for construction from their own systems — even before the new electric plants are completed.
