Many are the phantasies aroused as we recognize the age of the large white oak tree at Oak Hill, old home of the Rappahannock County Woods. According to a .rule used by the Davey Tree Experts, the tree is now 305 years old. Its circumference 411 feet above the ground, is 16 feet. This gives a diameter of 61 inches which multiplied by 5, from the Davey table, gives the 305 years. In the year 1648 Virginia was but a struggling young colony.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE. .. Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) ---—-.— $2.00 a year FAR FROM CHEAP Everyone has heard, time and time again, the socialist propaganda line that the way to get cheap electric power is to have the government provide it. And, undoubtedly, a great many people have come to believe that because of a lack of access to the facts. An excellent refutation of the cheap government power claim recently appeared on the editorial page of the Saturday Evening Post. It was written by Eugene A. Stephenson? Professor Emeritus of Engineering at the University of Kansas, who took the Tennessee Valley Authority as his example. TVA claims that it earned a net income from power operations of "$214,000,000 during the 1939-52 .period. But, as Professor Stephenson shows, “net income for TVA is not comparable to that of other public utilities . . .” TVA is free from such ^expenses-"as state and federal income taxes, corporation taxes,- certain local property taxes, etc., etc. During those 13 years, it paid to Alabama and Tennessee some $26,000,000 “in lieu of taxes.” Had TVA been a private operation, with the same gross income, its tax bill would have been $119,600,000. 1 TVA’s interest-free capital, Professor Stephenson continued, is “an even greater advantage.” Its depreciated capital investment in power facilities is about $600,000,000. No interest is paid on this huge sum. Had TVA paid interest at the modest rate of 2.6 per cent on that power investment, the total since 1939 would have amounted to $123,000,000. Instead, of course, this came out of the taxpayers. Dr. Stephenson’s conclusion hit the nail on the head: “This abbreviated story of ‘cheap’ public power provides a startling example' oi the struggle which faces those who still WASHINGTON THEATRE Show*: 7:15 and 9:00 P.M.

Despite the changes that are appearing in the federal electric power policy, powerful socialist groups still exist—both inside and outside the government. They aren’t going out of business. They are still waiting their chance—and they are still working with full vigor to bring about a will either own almost everything or, at least, boss everything. The socialists have only to win once—and then it takes a revolution them. Here is an outstanding case where eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. There’s no room for complacency now, and it’s not likely there ever will be. Grass Roots Opinions Franklinville, N.J. SENTINEL: "The death of nine children in one day, recently in discarded refrigerators, provided shocking evidence that the danger ... is still a very real one. Despite the fact that every death in a discarded refrigerator is inexcusable, they continue to occur because of the irresponsibility of adults.” Babylon, N.Y. EAGLE: "It is axiomatic that when people support the government, they control the government. This is what we as a free nation have always demanded and gloried in. Now, however, the exact opposite, also axiomatic, is spreading, and has been for years: When government supports the people it will control them. That’s the last thing we want to see happen because it leads to dictatorship and tyranny.” Hagerstown, Md., MORNING HERALD: “All we can say is, that if a large debt is a national blessing we seem to be well on the road toward eternal bliss in this coumryWe wish we could believe it.” Freeport, Pa., JOURNAL: “We must face reality—and not expect our government to play Santa to ail wants and needs.” Pitts Park Front Royal, VirginiaTHURS., OCT. 22 WILLIAM HOLDEN DAVID NIVEN —in— “The Moon Is Blue*' FRI. - SAT., OCT. 23 - 24 CLIFTON WEBB BARBARA STANWYCK — in — “TITANIC” SUN. - MON., OCT. 25-26 BETTY GRABLE DALE ROBINSON — in — “THE FARMER TAKES A WIFE” (Color by Technicolor) TUES. - WED. - THUR. OCT. 27 - 28 - 29 BOB HOPE • MICKEY ROONEY MARILYN MAXWELL “OFF LIMITS” Cattle Market Steadies Charles Lucey, a Scripps-Howard staff writer, recently sent out a dispatch on the changing cattle situation. During a recent period, he wrote, “They’ve poured the biggest flood of cattle in years into the Chicago stockyards . . . and yet a market that had been run ragged only a couple of months ago tookjt without buckling. “Farmers who took a terrible beating in mid-summer’s heat and drought, and .feeders of fat cattle who got squeezed between high corn prices and low cattle prices are perked up and beginning to show confidence again ... “Fredicting markets ahead is always risky business, but most people around the stockyards say they think prices should hold fairly firm.” Beef prices are much below the highs of a year ago, and the consumer gets substantially more for l\is money when he goes to the butcher shop. Horeover, it is definitely in the long term interest of the consumer no less than the producer that the value of beef return to and stay at a reasonable level, which will compensate for today’s cost of raising the animals and return some kind of a profit. This is a meat-eating country, and a steady increase ” in the meat supply is es- ~ sential if we are to maintain our living standards in this regard. And it’s obvious that instead of increased supply we'd soon have a sharp decrease If it became apparent thaTthe meat business, with all its work and risks and investment, was a losing enterprise. So the recent news from the meat front is on the good side. May it continue that way. WHY ADVERTISE? . The following is reprinted from the Wynne, Arkansas, Progress: ‘‘The late William -Wrigley was once riding with a friend in a crack express train, from New York to Chicago. His companion was curious to k»ow why the magnate continued to spend so much money on advertising. —"". •" / .... ' - “ ‘Your gum is known all over the world,’ he said. ‘Why don’t you save the millions you are spending on advertising ’ “Wrigley pondered a second and then asked, ‘How fast is this train going?’ “ ‘About 60 miles per hour,’ replied the other. “ ‘Then,’ asked Wrigley, ‘why doesn’t the railway company remove the engine and let the train travel on its own momentum ?’ ” Government Must Take First Governor Hugh Gregg of New Hampshire recently said, “Remember this: No government, federal or state can give you anything which it has not first taken from you.” It might seem that so undeniable a proposition would be known to anyone.
