RETURNS FROM HOSPITAL James Settle, who has been a patient in the University of Virginia hospital, returned to his home Monday. RAPP - CHATS By: W. H. Lyne County Agent WATCH OUT for a story about Rappahannock during the remainder of August or early September on the1 farm page of the Richmond Times Dispatch. “Ham” Crockford and his camera were in the county the latter part of July getting material for a story. Rappahannock farmers estimate the corn yield has been raised 85% and the hay 50% by the drought. Reports have been made by your county agent to Henry M. Taylor and the State (Extension Office on the local situation^ CThese jnen are working with Governor Battle’s drought relief committee but my advice is to do all you can to help yourself. While in Culpeper recently, I asked a farmer and business man if he had started praying for rain yet. His reply was: "No, the Lord will give us rain when He wants to, what we better pray for is forgiveness of our sins.” No doubt we need to include both in our prayers. They Do It Again! Nelson Atkins and Willie Gentry came up with another fish story that isn’t a “fish story” as the term is usually interpreted. They caught three catfish and one bass, one a twelve pounder and another an eight, in the Shenandoah River recently. (And they have a picture to back them up). "pi. Wharton Returns From Korea CPI.

Lacking one credit when he entered the Air* Force, “Husky", on his return to the U. S. from Korea, acquired four credits upon the merits of. a test given by the armed forces, and thus automatically, the credits required for graduation. A2/c Scroggins is now stationed at Chanute Air Base, Rantoul, Illinois. Warrenton Fire Chief Praises Amissyille VFD Warrenton’s fire chief “Happy" Brittle praised the progress of the Amissville Volunteer Fire Departmerit when he attended its regular monthly meeting last Wednesday as observer. “Your department has moved so fast,” he told the 23 Amissville VFD members present, “that we thought we ought to come over and see how you do things."

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS gepfe. PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE___Publish* Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) ---$2.00 a year Don’t We Know It! Some time ago—August 10 to be exact—a gentleman named H. Lester Hooker appeared before the House Ways and Means Committee. He didn't beat around the bush: he stated plainly that the customer was having to pay more than his share of taxes and was receiving not the slightest additional benefit. * He picked as a quick example the communication service. With phrases short and to-the-point, he said: “In order to appreciate fully the impact of the excise tax on the users of communication service it must be borne in mind that the rates paid must make provision for the fact that the net income of the companies is subject to a 52 per cent Federal income tax. In other words, in order to produce a dollar of additional net earnings, revenues must be increased $2.08. On top of this the user of the service must pay an excise tax which is calculated as a per cent of gross revenues. The dollar amount of excise taxes paid, therefore, is substantially greater because of the effect of Federal income taxes upon the rates charged. All in all, it is perfectly plain that the compounding of Federal taxes in this manner results in loading on to the user far more than his just share of the expense of government, from which unjust expense the user receives not the slightest benefit. “The part of the public that is having to carry the burden of this discriminatory tax has been very tolerant and patient in the past but we are convinced from the complaints being received is now becoming most impatient. Because of the many recent rate increases, the public’s attention has been necessarily centered on the heavy burden of Federal taxes being paid by communication companies. For example, an increase in revenue to a telephone company of one million dollars would require the telephone subscribers to pay in increased rates more than two million dollars. Therefore, it is seen that the excise tax to be paid by the telephone user is increased more than 100 per cent. This manifestly is unfair to the utility user who pays his fair share of all Federal taxes and, in addition, he he must pay through rates charged for the sendee he receives all of the tar obligations of the utility. The utility user is. required to make an extra contribution to the support of the Federal Government, one in taxes and again in rates. This inequity seems all the more unjust when it is recognized that the utility user receives no additional benefit whatsoever.” (I hope I remember to send the gentleman a Christmas card!) We have always been skeptical of these people who are preparing for the end of the world, but there are signs that the millenium may be approaching. Sentiment is gradually building up in Washington for a bill that Congressman Coudert (R - N.Y.) would like considered. It would make it unlawful for the government to spend more than it takes ini After 177 years, someone would think of that;—from GeorgeTown (S.C.) Times. Woedtflle News Notes Mrs. R. L. Rudasill, Mrs. Bagby, Misses Ethel Long, Bertha Johnson, and Mr. and Mrs. Ned Hopkins motored to Leesburg on Sunday and called on Mrs. Rudasill’s and Mrs. Bagby’s brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Johnson.

"captain of the men of death ” Pneumonia is a disease which strikes swiftly and proceeds quickly and dramatically to a crisis. Until recent years little could be done to help the patient. * The brief decisive struggle between the infection and the patient earned for pneumonia the dreadful title, "Captain of the men of death.” In the parlance of the army, the captain has been "busted.” First came antipneumococcic serum, which removed one bar. Later, powerful sulfa drugs and, more recently, penicillin teamed up with serum to break the captain completely. All of these powerful weapons are kept in readiness in our prescription department, waiting only for the physician’s order. LEWIS PHARMACY DIAL 8322 CULPEPER, VA.
