Reports for 3Year .Trend Public assistance cases in Virginia have dropped steadily in four of the six programs administered by local welfare departments, Mrs. M. Elizabeth Buntin, Superintendent of the Rappahannock County department of public welfare reported today. These decreases have more than offset increases in two programs, and the total today is well below the lotal in the state three years ago. Steady increases have been noted in foster care and aid to the disabled. The disabled program became effective in October 1950. « _ Meanwhile, the average payment in each case has increased, the superintendent said, as many local departments of welfare have made efforts to meet a larger part of the need of welfare clients. The decline .in old age assistance cases begon in October, 1950, when wider coverage provisions of the Social Security Act made more people eligible for its benefits, Mrs. (See WELFARE—Page 10) B. T.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS k . • -.. r; .' 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 Rank Vandalism It makes your blood boil to see a potential good clean holiday full of fun turned into a disgraceful show of » beastly behavior. Would that we had a stronger printable vocabulary in which to ventilate our disgust with the Halloween “Tricks’r that were indulged in Friday and Saturday nights. “Trick or treat,” a “boo” or two, even a little soap smeared cm the windows isn’t bad . . . they’re kid tricks and they’re humored and enjoyed by the older generation. Our fury is aimed at those characters who plaster a house with rotten apples, break handrolled glass windows, pile up dirty crates and tin cans in front of a lady’s place of business, and string toilet tissue over the church door. Some of these are jail offenses, None of them are funny. Once more they're cowardly. They were evidently performed by persons, under coyer of darkness and masks, who would hide their faces, once a light beam struck a match to their doings. If ever one of you chance to read this writing, may you feel red with shame and regret. We feel sorry for the innocent home owners, but we feel more sorry for-you. Drought Aid Allocated Park C. Brinkley, Commissioner of Agriculture, announced by letter dated November 2nd that Rappahannock had been allocated $3,955 in the Federal drought aid program for hay. This allocation being determined according to^the county’s livestock population. All allocations to be used for freight allowances for hay purchased by farmers. Mr. Brinkley advised that applica tions would be sent as soon as returned from the printer thus I expect to be in position to commence taking application by the 1st of next week although there are several pertinent questions concerning the over all hay program which must be clarified. Each county’s allocation will be distributed from Richmond in the form of a freight allowance of a flat $8.00 per ton each ton of hay delivered to eligible farmers. This amoun^ represents one half of the weight average freight rate on hay shipped into Virginia. e A farmer, whose application has been approved, will take his certificate to the hay dealer of which choice. The dealer will deduct the amount -of the ^freight allowance from the price charged the farmer. Eligibility requirements for hay will be the same as those for grain except: L A farmer must have less than a 60 day supply of hay on hand to be eligible. 2. No farmer may get more than a 60 day supply of hay at any one time. • .....———Like the Grain Drought Relief program one of the objectives of the hay program is to help farmers preserve a.basic livestock economy.

God gave us strength to bear our loss, And courage to stand the blow, But what it meant to lose you No one but God will ever know. Courtland if we had all the world to give We would give it and much more, To hear your voice and see your face And to greet you at our door. T will be a glad bright morning When we meet you over there. For all of us you did your best Then God granted you eternal rest. By his wife and daughters.

Have you fever noticed, for instance, that the two sides of your face are different-though they seem the same at first glance? (One eyebrow may be a little higher. Or you may have a dimple at only one comer of your mouth.) Tim same is true of lots of things, even electricity.Iheres federal government electricity and there’s company electricity like yours. They seem the same on the face of it. But there s r big difference: Government Eleetricity goes first to certain favored groups; it pays little or no taxes; its rates are not regulated by state or local bodies; it is a step toward a federal government power monopoly—and socialism. . Company Electricity is available to everyone in the company area without discrimination; it pays taxes —federal, state and local; its rates are regulated by people chosen to represent you; it plays a key role in America's free enterprise system. So it pays to look closely when things look the same. You’ll often find differences. And in electricity, these ' differences affect you and your family very directly.

Mr*. Moffett Appointed UDF County Chairman Mrs. William F. Moffett, Sr., of Washington, has been named chair-1 man of the United Defense Fund Drive in Rappahannock. The announcement was made today by W. Tayloe Murphy, Virginia’s drive chairman for 1954 in the campaign which is currently underway over the entire nation. The drive quota in Rappahannock County was set at $202. The quota for the state is $259,010 and the national quota was set at $20,225,000. Created in 1950, the United Defense Fund represents a federation of fund-i-aising drives, originally set of too many appeals. Murphy stressed the importance up in an effort to solve the problem of the contributions which the UDF makes in providing entertainment and recreation for servicemen at home and abroad. The federation also provides funds for aiding civilians in congested defense production areas and for helping the stricken people of Korea.

Greater employment of older people, as well as full employment and high' incomes of many of their children, is also responsible for some of this decline, the superintendent pointed out. General relief cases were lower during September than at any time since the beginning of the program. Last month’s records showed 1,847 cases,t a drop from 4,771 in September 1950, the month before the aid to the disabled program was begun. Many of the cases formerly aided through relief are now on the disabled program, according to the superintendent. Aid to the permanently and totally disabled, begun in October 1950 with federal funds, has increased from 1145 cases the first month to 4.015 cases during September 1953. Foster care cases increased from 2,522 in October 1950 to 3,289 during September of this year, while aid to dependent children decreased more than 1,600 children in 800 families during the same period.
