;:*«w Although the town elections in Washington were rather a chopped up affair, it is pleasant to note that the reelected officials are of high calibre, and will, we are sure, serve the community aptly. * . «L' A' An ironical thought: the Washington Post-Times Herald, the . paper which most of us eat breakfast behind, was hasty to phone * concerning the recent elections in Washington, but where are they prs- when there’s a good feature story r in the making and what happened J to their coverage on the Point-ton?/ Point; /A>: " A AA ■ - -. 1 A question for this week Is: The scalp of what bird was at one time used as money in America? * • • No matter how hot the weather 1— is# no matter how late the time of year, it just doesn’t seem like summer has arrived, until school HHl= is out and the kids are swimming and the flys a hupiing—Summer ■ r has really arrived in Rappahannock. It’s hot as the dickens, the flys aren’t humming, they’re buzzing, and Lake Manahoac and A „ Old Hollow are full of happy * kids splashing water. Small Vote Polled In Tuesday*8 Election Apathy and amusement were the distinguishing i^OtCSjtfvTuesday’s local elections in the town of _Washington, with a grand totals of 49 citizens bothering to cast their votes.

Farmers Attend V.P.L .Field Day • A 12-month feed plan, which bids fair to help solve Virginia’s intermittent drouth problems, will get top billing in discussions at the field day for farmers July 11 mt the Middleburg branch of VPI Agricultural Experiment Station. Some of the State’s most extensive pasture tests, including grazing experiments for both dairy and beef animals, are underway at Middleburg. All farmers, professional agricultural workers, and others interested are invited for the field day. The program will begin at 1:30 p.m. and last until 4:00 p.m. On the agenda is a tour of the station, with VPI researchers stationed at the various stops to explain the tests. iW. H. Lyne will attend this tour and welcomes any farmers who would like to accompany him. He will leave the Court House in Washington at 12 p.m. on the 11th. .... ^. * ■ , ■ ■ * *• *■;; Draft Movement Re-elects Amissville VFD Officials Aroused by recently published anonymous criticism of fire de- ^ partment administration, members of the Amissville Volunteer- Fire Department expressed their confidence in past leadership by drafting nearly all officials *into renewed terms of office during the department’s annual election last Wednesday. -4-^ - --- JLne draft movement, spurred by indignation among members at what was termed scurrilous and irresponsible criticism by someone afraid to sign his name, resulted in sweeping President Thomas Tear, Treasurer Luther B. Stuart • and Vice President William A.' Laing into additional terms of service. All three were re-elected by unanimous vote of the 33 members present at the meeting. Tear and Stuart , who had pre- ___ __vious!y announced publicly their unwillingness to succeed themselves, both accepted nomination only on condition that their continued service be based on unanimous desire by 'the membership. ,u__ Tear has served as president of the; department, which has made an enviable record of progress and has won much favorable comment, v ever since its formation. This will be his third term. Fire Chief Charles Compton,s / Assistant Chief £lmer Jenkins, ~ and Secretary Walter Slavik, however, declined to submit to draft. Bobby R. Boggs was therefore chosen to succeed Slavik, and Lloyd Bywaters to. succeed Compton. , Former Chief Compton, who pleaded to be excused from the “burdens of he chieftancy because of lack of time to fulfill its obliga- _ tions, finally had to yield to pressure and permit nomination and unanimous election as assistant chief to succeed former assistant ■ Chief Jenkins. 4 > Mitchell Green, runner-up in a close election for fire chief, was chosen as first captain of the department. Floyd Hitt was elected second captain over Thomas Stover who was then named first ~ lieutenant, and Fred Cooke was made second lieutenant. _ L - The resignation of CoL J. N.__ Caperton because of illness was reluctantly acbepted by the department which praised his past untir-K ing and unselfish work in its behalf as chairman fo the committee - on constitution and rules, chair- .. man of the house committee, mem- . ber of the executive committee, and chairman of the county-wide volunteer firemen’s recreation - committee. - - (Continued on Pago" 6) ' SfSfjSSjS!

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING ' At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 »i •»i«n» Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: 'in advance) $2.00 a yea# Washington as viewed by YOUR SENATOR A. WILLIS ROBERTSON HOUSING ACCLAIMED AT CURBING ABUSES The Housing bill which the Senate passed last week was the .result of five weeks of hearings by our Banking and Currency Committee during which more than 2.000 pages_of testimony were taken from builders, mortgage bankers, renters, potential home _bexperts in every area of the housing field. We also had the benefit of an intensive study made by the President’s Advisory Committee on Housing and much of the testimony was directed particularly toward the recently widely publicized scandals connected with administration of the housing program. The bill, therefore, was designed not only to accomplish the genera^ purpose of helping every American family to'acquird a good home but especially to prevent future abuses or irregularities in the program. The new protective features included: 1. A change in the regulations covering property improvement and repair loans which will make the lender responsible for 20 percent of the loss on each individual loan, instead of giving the lender virtually complete protection from loss, as under existing law. This should discourage the making of unsound loans solicited by high pressure agents trying to sell their products or services. The bill also provided that this type of loan shall be limited to improvements which substantially protect or improve the basic livability or utility of the property and in the future those who want to build tennis courts, swimming pools or barbecue pits will have to do so without the backing of the Federal- Gov- - ernment. A requirement that those who . obtain FHA insured building ofL_ rehabilitation loans shall make a certification of the cost of the cost of the construction after it is finished and that repayment shall be made of any part of the mortgage which is in excess of the permitted percentage of cost. The law has allowed the FHA to insure various classes of loans up to from 80 to 95 percent but in the past this percentage has been based on builders’ advance estimates -and those who Hid the work at reduced costs 'might wind up with some ■ FOR NINE DAYS ONLY \ -.* — Beginning Today - Through Saturday, June 19th ^ Pare frish Crease-Resistant Linen z=^===r— _ —7 Vaiue at $2.95 $1.89 “The Home of Better Fabrics” • . 142 N. Main Street CULPEPER borrowed money in their pockets instead of having any real investment in the project. These were t the so-called “windfall” profits, which the Bureau of Internal Revenue found some taxpayers were trying to claim as capital gains to -avoid the higher rate of Jncome_ taxes. ' ' 3. Builders and sellers of'FHA or VA insured residence housing must give the buyer a certificate showing that the construction was in conformity with plans and specifications.. In addition to these specific provisions we included in our report on the bill a statement that it is the intent of the Congress that the Congress that the Federal housing agencies “shall at all times regard as a primary responsibility their duty to act in the interest of the individual home purchaser and in so doing to protect his interest to the extent feasible.” One section of the bill, inserted by the committee on my motion, provides $10,000,000 for advances to local and state agencies for public works plants, with the money to be repaid when construction is undertaken. Our Virginia State Planning Commission recommended this as a valuable means of encouraging localities to make advance plans for public works which can be started quickly at any fu^rui^rlatr^whm-economic condi-^ tions call for an expanded pro* gram. 4. H NEWS In the last month several events have taken place that are very important to the Rappahannock 4-H Club bpys. The Rappahannock County Sears, Roebuck Pig Chain was judged for the second time by Ralph Westing, Extension Swine Specialist from VPI. All the hogs in the- chain are registered purebred Poland China wifh litters. The Flint Hill 4-H’ers were awarded prrizes at a banquet given by the Sears Roebuck at Warrenton for-this good work in carry- ; ing for the hogs this year. Ivory 'Atkihs,Jr.receivedf6phonoTsbest sow and litter. Eddie Sutphin won second prize and $25 and Glen Updike won third prize and $15. and Charles Leake won $10 and the 4th prize ribbon. The scores were very close and* all of these boys shbuld be congratulated for their fine work. -- The 4-H boys on the Rappahannock livestock judging team tried their luck in *the Area contest at Staunton in April after attending the livestock judging school in Madison and numerous workouts in judging livestock on farms. The team composed of Kelly Updike, Jackie Sisk, Glen Updike, Jimmy Yates, placed 9th out of 15 teams in the contest. This record is very good considering the competition of the more experienced teams of '"the area. ~~~ : " :.-== On April 15th, five 4-H boys who are raising sheep as one of their projects attended the sheep shearing school in Warrentoh. These boys, Jackie Sisk, Kelly Updike, Richard Griffith, Glen Updike and Randall Updike, participated in a contest at the end of the school where the best shearers was judged according to speed, condition of the fleece, etc. Kelly Updike and Jackie Sisk placed first and second winning a chance to attend the all-expense-paid to Staunton for a two day shearing school and contest. We feel that this kind of competition and training not only help the boys with their livestock now but will mean much more to them in later years. They have represented Rappahannock County well at these-contests and we feel very proud of them. Just a reminder to you parents of 4-H’ers that it’s time for your son to be gettings, pig if he wants to show in the Orange Area Pig show and sale on September 6. It “should be a Mar^ pig and:3?eigh 170-245 by September. Come by and see us.
