All those owning plots in the cemetery or otherwise interest«<Hn tjbe appearance of the cemetery will please ¥e at the cemetery Saturday, July 11 at 7 a.m. to help with the cleaning. IK AHH - OH ATS always gives me that “Once in a Lifetime" feeling. The Rappahannock Farm and Home Water Supply Committee decided to put on a drive towards increasing such facilities in our homes. Your county agent dug in along with a dozen or so other people. Results. .... fifty-nine home water supply surveys have been completed. . thanks to a most cooperative County Health Department as well as those on the state level. Of course how many of these surveys will result in installation remains to be seen. However, we know of one complete installation that has already been made, several more have been started and a "thank you note” received. From the complaints heard from the wives about their “water totin’ troubles” me thinks a good many installations will get underway in short order. And today comes • a two-page type-written request for a complete water and sanitation survey. Ram Sales Coming Up: Orange, July 15; Winchester, July 20; Staunton, July 22; Harrisonburg, August 13.

Interested visitors will be welcomed. The minister is Rev. Harold Carder. AMISSVILLE PARSONAGE FUND DAY, JULY 19 We shall observe July 19 as the fourth Parsonage Fund Day in our church. The goal is once again $1,000. Although we missed the goal by about $150 -in our last drive; we are confident that we can reach it again this time if each one will support the drive as God would have him. Some of our people have given beyond their share of the task while others have contributed nothing of a physical nature. This must not be for the person with only a small contribution to make has as responsible a task as anyone else. It isn’t the size of the gift but the spirit in which we give to God’s work that brings victory. Our work is making fine progress and we find ourselves in the home stretch of our project. Won’t you help us complete our work by making your offering on July 19. —Amissville Baptist Church Public Assistance Decreases In State; County Increases Total expenditures for public assistance in Virginia decreased for the first time in several months in May, the Department of Public Welfare announced today. In Rappahannock County, according to Mrs. M. Elizabeth Buntin, SuperintenderV of the welfare department, public assistance expenditures increased. Public assistance payments totaled $2837.44 in the county for May, in the state, $1,304,599 was paid out to recipients of assistance ,in six categories. This was a statewide decrease of $5,272 from the previpus" month. The decrease in expenditures was realized despite a slight increase in the Statewide caseload. In May, the total was 35,181, while April’s total was 35,176: Figures for Rappahannock County show a May total of 124 and 125 for April. Throughout the §tate, there were 1,022 less cases receiving assistance in May of this year than in May a year ago. Although the number of cases that received financial assistance decreased in dll but two programs, the total number increased because of increases in Aid to the Disabled cases and Foster-Care cases. ’ Average payments throughout the State in the sht categories were: Old Age Assistance $26.59j Aid to the Blind $34.10; Aid to Dependent Children $63.53; Aid to the Permanently and Totally Disabled $35.95; Foster Care $35.06; and General Relief $33.81. Const; Milk Shippers Alarmed Over Strike _ OveT 60 milk shippers throughout Rappahannock county are distressed and alarmed about the Alexandria strike of drivers of milk - collection trucks for the Sunbeam Dairy. Pouring milk out is waste, and it’s an unhappy dairyman who works hard to have milk to ship, and then has to pour it out. The strike was called at the Alexandria milk-collection station at 7 o’clock Friday morning, July 3. Dairy men of the county were notified by letters mailed by the Sunbeam Dairy on the same morning, but with a post office holiday coming up, some of the notices were late arriving. Of the 66 dairy men listed as shipping milk to the city dairies, most of them are shipping from Castleton and Amissville neighborhoods. Castleton lists 14 milkshippers, with the same number in the Amissville community. Flint Hill lists 10, Washington 6, Sperryville 5, Woodville 2, Slate Mills 8, and a few from Viewtown, Boston, Huntly, Estes, and Etlan (these latter two on the F. T. road and one over the line into Madison couittg). Asking- of questions, as to why this strike of 'drivers, brings no answers locally. One driver stated that when he delivered his truckload of milk Friday, he left his lunch in the cab of the truck and then was not allowed to return to get it. He had to get somqone to bring him home, as threats kept him from returning with the truck as he had planned. Tales such as this fall on ears that can hardly believe: rural people can't understand why there are no laws and law-enforcement officers to allow a fellow to go about his business as he pleases—certainly return to a truck to gat his lunch, and to drive the truck home again if that is what he had expected to do. Inquiries furnish the information that Sunbeam Dairy is nonunion, and a general surmise is that some dairy labor-union must be trying to organize the workers. Naturally, people in Rappahannock realize they cannot understand what . has transpired in the city to cause a strike. The deep concern hert is that milk is going to waste. Many a man knows when he pours out milk, he is pouring out food, shelter, and clothing for his family. Milk is his livelihood — and a strike means hardships. Discussions bring denunciations of "union-dictatorship’ and several other harsh expressions. Some of the dairy men aro transporting their own shipments of milk, using their farm trucks. This cannot last for long since they have their othefr work to do on the farm and a milk-pick-up route is necessary for their business. A telephone conversation with the owner of Sunbeam Dairy in Alexandria did not clarify the matter. He feels that he is being “dictated to” also, and his attitude is understandable. Meanwhile the milk-shippers are making a visit to the Sunbeam Dairy in the city. They are not sure what can be done, but they are trying to get the milk routes back at work to relieve the distress of Rappahannock, milk-shippers. BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT Mr. and Mrs. Roy C. Wharton of Centreville, formerly of Amissville, have announced the birth of a son, Gary Cleveland, born June 30. Mrs; Wharton, before her marriage, was Miss Dorothy Settle of Amissville. Mother and son are doing fine at the home of her mother, Mrs. Liza -, Settle.

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 SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) ---- $2.00 a year Washington D. C. As Viewed By Yoor Senator, A. Willis Robertson APPROPRIATIONS ARE CUT BELOW RECOMMENDATIONS The Senate resorted to night sessions last week to speed action on major appropriation bills and we now are reaching the point where we can see what progress has been made toward cutting Federal spending and approaching a balanced budget. We still have to take up the bills for the Department of Defense and ' the Mutual Security program, which have not yet been acted on by the House. I anticipate that Foreign Aid will be cut below the President’s request and the difference may be added to the Air Force budget. Practically all the domestic spending bills have now been passed or are nearing final action. On these bills the Senate has approved an average of approximately ten per cent less than was recommended by President Truman and about 4.5 per cent less than was proposed in President Eisenhower’s revised budget. J his result may be disappointing to those who expected a miraculous return to pre-World War II spending •levels, but it is about in line with the predictions made by those who realized that all but 17 percent of the total budget proposed by President Truman was for national defense, fixed charges such as interest on the national debt or other firm obligations such as for veterans’ pensions. The pension item alone exceeds the entire cost of the Government when I entered the House in 1933. As I previously pointed out in these columns, there never was any more hope of balancing the budget in the new fiscal year starting this week unless we were willing to make radical reductions in our defense program. President Eisenhower’s revised budget recognized that there would be a deficit of more than $6 billion, even though his proposals involve a cut in funds for the Air Force which many persons fear may be dangerous in view of our dependence upon air power not only to deter a Russian attack but to defend our metropolitan areas if war should come. The cuts which we have made in the domestic spending bills were not easy because, although there has been a general outcry for cutting Federal spending, we found little agreement on where the cuts should be made. I, for example, have received approximately six times as many letters and telegrams asking me to increase appropriations as I have received asjcing me to reduce them. A majority of those who favored reductions did not specify where they should be made but many of the requests for increas came from substantial business and professional men who often said they believed in economy but not in the case of an activity or program which they had personally observed and believed was valuable. It is, of course particularly hard to turn down requests for funds for such obviously needed and valuable things as heart and cancer studies and other medical research or for the carrying out of promises of Federal aid for hospitals and highways on which States have relied and already have made their own funds available. Our Appropriations Committee was forced to take a hard-boiled attitude because we recognized the absolute necessity for a gradual reduction in Federal spending and it was only in rare cases that we agreed to go above the amounts approved by the House. One such exception was the hospital construction program for which we allowed the $60,000,000 recommended by President Eisenhower as compared with the $50,000,000 approved by the House and the $75,000,00 urged by local officials and medical groups. We felt we should go that far to Your Co-operation Needed Demon Fire knows no eight hour working shift. Each hour of every day it watches its chance to ignite its destructive spark. Some one must be on call always to halt its spread. THE FIREMEN ARE. To best combat this public enemy the firemen, organized into a working unit, must have good modern equipment. Only recently a foam fire-fighting attachment for the fire truck has been purchased by the Rappahannock Volunteer Fire Company in order to better conquer gasoline and oil fires. But to have this necessary equipment this organization, like all others, must have funds. After much thinking the firemen have hit upon an idea which best suits their purpose—serving the people and simultaneously raising funds. They have decided to put on a local carnival. Wait!—don’t lay the paper down with “another one of those; . . just take all the money out of the county.” This is different. All parts of the carnival will be operated by the Firemen and the Auxiliary. It will be entirely a “local enterprise.” The concession stands, which will be built by,, the firemen \yill jj>e saved for future local carnivals. Money is needed to build these stands. Every donation will be appreciated, no matter how small. Like the old darkie, who when asked what he needed, summed up his condition with . . “Lawsy, chile, I needs ever’thing from my overcoat in; from my hat down.” These contributions can be given to T. C. Lea, L. V. Merrill or Rappahannock News. Please make them quickly as the firemen are anxious to begin construction. This is your fire company at work. They are raising funds to buy equipment for the better protection of your property and your family. carry out moral commitments which already had been made but I suggested language for our Committee Report warning administrators of this program that they should not in the future encourage the starting of HillBurton fund hospitals unless the Congress already had approved enough money to see them through to completion.

Liberal Tradition (From The Providence Journal McLean, Va.) Since we have made our selection in - the race for the Democratic nomination for Governor of Virginia, between State Senator Charles Fenwick, of Arlington, and former Congressman Thomas Stanley, of Henry County, we wish to state what that selection is, and why we made it. There are many good things which can be said for Mr. Fenwick, whom we have known and liked personally for almost a quarter of a century. He is our neighbor. He is unbelievely energetic when pressing toward his goal—which, in this instance, is the governorship of his state. He is a courteous and friendly man. And, we understand, he is capable. Nevertheless, we shall support Mr. Stanley. We are among those who believe Virginia has been soundly governed for the past three centuries. Her present reputation throughout the nation, and indeed throughout the world, is one of which we are proud. Our State government has been, in some respects, like the medical profession. It has demanded that a remedy be proven before being adopted. Some criticize it, as they do the medical profession, for not embracing every new idea which comes along. But Virginia knows what many foreign countries painfully out—that a few years of unwise experimentation can destroy the foundations which centuries have built. Though Virginia has avoided utopian panaceas, “change is a proud part of her tradition. She has been the very cradle of those once-revolutionary principles of self-government which all free men now hold dear. She led the fight against the British colonial tyranny. Over the opposition of other states, she forced the adoption of the first ten amendments to the Constitution, establishing the principles of freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom from illegal search and seizure. As early as the 1830’s, the Virginia Legislature failed by out one vote to outlaw slavery. And in more recent years, it was Virginia’s venerable Senator Carter Glass who voiced the firsjf nationwide demand that America stop the despotism of Hitler. Those who charge that Virginia is reactionary are simply ignorant of the facts. This age-old policy of sound andprogressive liberalism has become the unwritten law of Virginia. Since colonial times the maintenance of that law has been intrusted to various State political organizations—and to this day not a one of them has betrayed the trust. The present State political organizations has given us a notable list of Governors Pollard, Peery, Price, Tuck, and Battle. Virginia has continued to progress under their administrations, without weakening any of the cornerstones upon which the Commonwealth rested. In our opinion Mr. Stanley will not be a spectacular governor, and will not have a startling administration— but he will continue to maintain those principles of Virginia government which have l>een tempered in the fires of experience. We do not know what Mr. Fenwick would do if elected governor. The remark is often heard that this is our chance “to elect someone from our area,” Is that necessarily good? Do we want the philosophy of Arlington, which is more akin to that of the District of Columbia than to Virginia, to take over our State government. It is also said that Fenwick, like Stanley, is a member of the present State political organizzation. He was—but is he now? All but three of the thirty-seven members of the State Senate are supporting Mr. Stanley, and all but a baker’s dozen of the one hundred members of the House of Delegates are doing so. Would Mr. Fehwick, as governor, be able to work effectively with a Legislature whose members had been so overwhelmingly against his election? In our opinions Mr. Fenwick would not properly represent those of us who believe in the traditional government of Virginia. He is too committed to the metropolitan philosophy of his home county, Arlington, and would be under too great an obligation to the flock of radical supporters who are gathering under his wing, to do so. , For these reasons we believe the continued welfare of our State makes it our duty to support Thomas Stanley for the Governorship of Virginia.

I Thm Tim* Hm CommJ ■ rr • • • "This world wasn’t made for you or me or even for the U.S.A., but for those who are able to handle themselves well, and respect the reasonable rights of others." I wish I had written that. But, as a friend once suggested, tactfully: "In teaching English composition in school, I guess they neglected to tell us that before you can write anything worth printing, you must first find an idea.” • • * * * In this day of “The world is too much with us,” in its superlative degree, an item falls occasionally that spurs one on to know that the times are not all bad. We read, with fascination, .of a great story of how he achieved some outstanding work. That’s usually in history. But a genuine sense of welldoing prevades the soul when we hear of one of our fellow present-day workers doing a masterpiece in his particular line of work. If you think that too much of man’s work today is just routine and nothing of real value is being achieved, read the story of the few men who printed the Great Lectern Bible at the beginning of the 1930's. A Lectern Bible is one designed to be read by the clergyman before his congregation. It is permanently lodged on the lecture. It is heavy and of a page size greater than most book printers have occasion to create. The Oxford University Press was shamed into printing the Lectern Bible—not shame for itself so much as for a world which had not, in recent decades produced a Bible equal to those of past periods. This came to light when a king sought a memorial Bible to give to a church. No currently produced Bible was handsome enough and the printing trade bowed in shame when an old volume was selected by the king. Thus shamed, the printer’s consolations began. The best craftsmen gathered. A long series of experiments began. Centaur 22-point type left too much white space, so it was cast on a 20-point body—all special hand-cutting of letters. The first specimen pages did not suit the exacting requirements of the craftsmen. They tried Goud's New-style, also Bembo, but went back to the Centaur with thirteen rounded lower case letters re-cut, ascenders and descenders shortened and a new font of small caps. The number of letters, in case such data interests you, is 4,631,056. It was stipulated that the book should not exceed 1250 pages, and the final draft showed 1238, twelve less than the limit Besides the regular paging, there were such matters as a title page, an unobtrusive paragraph mark, an imprint design, an italic for a single line. The finest experts in the paper industry worked months perfecting a special paper. The result was rewarding. Lectern Bibles are now available. Few people will see them. They are presented as memorials to churches, read by the ministers, and a thought of them rarely enters the mind of those attending church—or those not in at Public Sale OF Valuable Farm, with Apple Orchard, in the Blue Ridge Mountain Area, near Sperryrille, Rappahannock County, Virginia, known as the “Viola M.

Charge Accounts Invited unceasing war on a world of killers Leeuwenhoek, in 1683, was the first to disturb the privacy of the teeming bustle of the unseen world. The "wretched wee beasties” cavorting innocently under his lens were later indicted and convicted by Koch and Pasteur. Unbeknown to Leeuwenhoek, he had discovered a vicious and unseen world of killers, now known as bacteria, or germs. The span of time between Leeuwenhoek and Pasteur was almost 200 years. Only an average lifetime has passed since Pasteur’s experiments, during which practically all we know about disease and its treatment has been discovered. Our knowledge is expanding at an ever-increasing rate. The pharmacist works with the physician in bringing newer and better medication into the sickroom. LEWIS PHARMACY DIAL 8322 CULPEPER, VA.
