Rappahannock News, May 28, 1953

YOLUME 4—NUMBER 30 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 28, 1953 Carter Will Speak At Stanley Rally W. C. Armstrong, Jr., manager of the Stanley for Governor Campaign in Warren County, has extended an invitation to the voters of Rappahannock to attend a Rally on Friday night, June 5, at 8 p.m., at the Front Royal Country Club. Senator Curry Carter, former resident of Rappahannock County, will introduce the principal speaker. Each and every one of you is cordially invited to attend. Rappahannock, One of Six By IV. H. Lyne Vital statistics show Rappahannock to be one of six Virginia counties which in 1952 had a blameless record in no accidential non-transport deaths. Fires, Explosions, and falls stood at the .top of the list as causes of accidental “non-transport deaths in rural Virginia. The rural home remains the most "dangerous” place. Kids like to experiment and investigate. Better take time to teach them how and why to use matches; a box in innocent hands is extremely fascinating and most dangerous. Steep steps into the cellar or in barns serve as a perfect set up for an accident especially if chuttered with jars, cans of chaff especially if you happen to be toting or so of apples, potatoes ojr com, etc. Water troughs or farm ponds are also fascinating places. Avoids sudden “drop off” to pond bottoms as well as allowing blocks of wood, boxes, etc., serve as a step for little sister to get .to the water in tivestodc watering tanks . . there were 85 deaths from drowning last year. A bull’s of ram's head is no pfay thing; always remember that every bull or ram is dangerous and that his head is his chief weapon. 1 have never seen an adult tickling the heels of a mule., but many a time have seen men fondle the head of a bull dr playfully tease a ram and then turn his back and casually walks away; > such is an engraved invitation with an R.S.V.P. foot note to the animal for a playful butt jam packed with death dealing power.

Reg. 5u* RAPP-CHATS, Pag* 4 Circulation Soars On “Flint Hill News” Staffed by Johnny Browning, as printer, with Butch Browning, Rick Cook, and Alvin Profitt as distributors, the county’s latest publication, “Flint Hill News”, is enjoying a wide circulation from one end of Flint Hill plum’ through to the other. As this newspaper comes into *print, by way of a mimeograph machine, it is trimmed and stapled and hastened to the street for sale. • The enterprising young men find ready sale for their news sheet. One of the issues ((approximately 3 i by 5 1 inches in size) states that: “We have received many complaints about our e’s looking like o’s. We think they will look like e’s now.” Evidently, the young newspapermen are beginning to find that the fourth estate is beset with trials and tribulations. The news is interesting. One item • says: “Two boys in the 6th and 7th grades got into a fight at the school on Tuesday.” strictly on the business side, another item of news reports: “We take advertisements* lc per word.” The printers at Rappahannock News were planning to do something to squelch this competition, but then the boys came into the printing office, turned on the charm, and departed with a large supply of free paper on which to print their news. What can you do in a case like that? (Editor's note: We are considering a merger if, and when, we’ve gotten our wits sharpened. We would hate for a conference with the Browning Boys to end up with their owning our paper—and that could happen if they got really wound up in their talking.) Reports from the elder Brownings state that father wasn’t any too happy about the sons' printing and distributing their “Flint Hill News.” Being a banker, and shall we say, a little on the conservative side, father protested that he wouldn’t have his sons making a nuisance of themselves worrying people to buy the papers. Mrs. John S. (mother) came to the Red Cross Tops Quota With the distinction of being the only small county in northern Virginia to top the quota, Mrs. Jaenie Jarvis and Mrs. Kathleen Lawfence' have announced that Rappahannock county more than met its quota in the 1953 Red Cross drive. The set quota of $950 was passed when Rappahannock’s funds jumped over the $1000 mark; the exact to-the-penny amount has not been announced. Refraining from actually bragging, the Red Cross chairmen, for the county chapter and for the drive, did not elaborate upon the distinction the county enjoyed by being the only small county in this section to meet its quota. The workers admit that they worked hard, but the success was sufficiently rewarding. All contributors can feel justly proud of the county record; it took many donations—large and small—to complete and pass the assigned quota. PMA Request Wheat Report The Production and Marketing Administration is taking immediate steps to have all farmers report the acreage of wheat grown in 1951, ‘52; or 1953,' Mr.' Barksdale; chairman, PMA County Committee, said. ~ The acreage report will be used by PMA in establishing farm acreage allotments for the 1954 wheat crop in the event production controls are established: Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson has already stated that mandatory controls pn the 1954: crop must be considered as probable, j lf a wheat acreage allotment pro-; gra^i? to^a^tesed m effect, k must be proclaimed before July 15. If stricter controls in the form of marketing quotas on wheat are proclaimed, the decision must be made by July 1. Marketing quotas, if proclaimed, will go into effect upon approval by two-thirds of the wheat growers who will be affected by the quota program. Since the time for gathering the required acreage information is extremely short, Mr. Barksdale stated that he is asking all farmers to come to the PMA county office and make their wheat reports. “If farmers will give us their full cooperation in supplying the wheat acreage information,” he said, “it will greatly assist us ^Reestablishing individual farm acreage allotments for 1954. If a wheat marketing quota referenum is required, individual farm allotments for 1954 wheat must be given to farmers before July 25.” Mr. Barksdale said that the Rappahannock PMA county office is ready to take acreage wheat reports now. He wants all farmers to make their report before May 15, the sooner the better. Jane’s Private School Holds Commencement Jane’s Private School commencement will be held on the school grounds at 145 9th Street, From Royal, on Saturday, May 30, at 10 o'clock. All parents and friends are cordially invited. In case of rain, the program will be cancelled.

She reasons that people don’t have to be worried if they don’t want to. Mother also served as chauffeur when the boys made their trip to the other newspaper in the county (Rappahannock News, at Washington) to collect paper on which to print their competitive news sheet. Mrs. Browning says that she does not have a copy of the first issue. Butch sold out of copies and ran back home and got mother’s copy and re-sold it If anyone has a copy of the first issue, Mrs. Browning would like to keep it—if the owner can be persuaded to part with it

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE -— Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia $2.00 a year SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) *To the Victor* Though unofficial, it is reported that a new postmaster has been named at Flint Hill, Mrs. Barbara Gentry. * «.!•[ The Republican committee of the county does not verify the information, saying they would prefer the announcement’s coming from Mrs. Gentry. Though there are many who dislike seeing the acting postmaster lose her place, it is acknowledged that the Republicans have the right to do the naming. It can be recalled that Rappahannock county had 101 more Republicans than Democrats in last fall’s election, and the minority recognizes the majority’s rights. There will be no doubt that Mrs. Gentry will be efficient. She is very efficient In her present job, and a worker who does one job well is more than apt to do another equally as well. It is a shame to lose a good teacher. Any teacher is hard to find these days, and a good teacher is even harder to find. Washington D. C. As Viewed By Your Senator, A. Willis Robertson In the first of these columns, which I wrote for publication during the week of January 5, 1953, I said: “The most immediately pressing problem which must be solved largely by the Congress is that of approaching a balanced budget. I say ‘approaching’ because even the most optimistic economy advocates realize that the budget cannot be balanced immediately without postponing even the limited tax relief which the people of the nation have been led to expect.” Again in my column for the week of January 18 I pointed out that all but about $10 billion in the 1954 budget prepared by President Truman was for national security and related purposes and that our ability to cut was limited by the fixed requirements for such essentials as postal service, making and enforcing laws, collecting taxes, managing the public debt and administering federal property and records. “It is apparent, therefore,” I wrote, "that whether or not spending can be kept anywhere near the estimated federal income figure for next year x x x will depend largely on what President Eisenhower feels we need to spend for our SATURDAY, MAY 30 , RICARDO MONTALBAN CYD CHARISSE — in — “MARK OF THE RENEGADE'” (Color by Technicolor) | '■■■ .. ..

He recommended letting the excess profits tax run to the end of 1953 instead of the middle of this year, and indefinite continuation of the 5percent super-tax on corporate income, and various war-time excise taxes which were supposed to end next April. He also asked that the scheduled reduction of around 10 per cent of personal income taxes become effective next January, as provided by the present law, instead of being moved up to July, as some members of Congress have proposed. If these recommendations are adopted, the President said there still would be a bookkeeping excess of $5.6 billion in federal spending as compared with collections during the 1954 fiscal year although the cash shortage would be only $2.8 billion because of collections which would be credited to social security or other special funds. All of this may be disappointing to pome who leaned too heavily on campaign promises of quick action to balance the budget and reduce taxes but the President’s realistic acceptance of hard facts which were well known to those of us who have had to deal with them on the appropriation committees will make it easier to proceed PITTS On Brandy Road ( Rt. 15) li miles North of CULPEPER 2 SHOWS NIGHTLY 7:30 A 9:30 A CAR FULL for $1.00 Pint: 20c tax . . .

June LivestocK Kounaup By W. H. Lyne Around June 1, about one farmer out of every 12 in Rappahannock County will find a card in his mailbox which has been placed there by his rural mail carrier. The purpose of this card is to secure information concerning the number of hogs on farms, the size of the spfing pig crop, number of cows milked and milk production, the number of ewes on farms and the number of lambs saved, and some information concerning chickens. About 5 minutes will be required to fill out this card •which can be put back in the mailbox to be collected by the mail carrier. The Department of Agriculture has been making this survey for more than 25 years and the informa- lion given by farmers has enabled the Department to make accurate State estimates of the pig and lamb crops and of milk production and fkmltry numbers. This is a sample survey as only a small percentage of the farmers are asked to fill out the card. It is, therefore, important that everyone who receives a card fill it out promptly in order that the results may be accurate. The information from these cards ■ is only used for making County and State estimates. I can assure you that information to be published will be very helpful to you and to me in following the trend of livestock numbers in this county and in knowing what livestock numbers are doing throughout the State and County. So please take a few minutes as soon as you get this card and fill it out for your farm.

Trip to Madison was reported on by Mrs. J. P. Cook, Mrs. Frank Cary and Mrs. David Menchhofer. The demonstration was on Finishes for the Better Dress. “We have the highest standard of living in the world. Eighteen million American families have washing machines in a world where five-sixths of the people wash in streams.” From the 1950 census 285 families reported as using an electric washing machine. 224 families reported a satisfactory water system in Rappahannock water survey just completed. The rest of Rappahannock’s families are still pumping and carrying •water by hand. Did you know that the average family spends 240 hours per year to pump and carry water for kitchen use only? Add to this the many gallons ot water required on wash day—it means many hours of just plain drudgery. This drudgery can be eliminated by installation of satisfactory water system in your home. On the average it’ll cost about 5c to pump 1,000 gallons of water and put it under pressure. What it amounts to is this: Most families can have an abundance of running water at a cost of less than $1 per month for electricity and thereby make their home a more enjoyable place to live.
