1054 Price $2.00 PEE TEAS • The answer to last week's question “When and where was the tJnion Army of Virginia organised?" is: June 26, 1662 at Sperry▼iile. It was organized from the troops of Fremont, Banks, and McDowell. This week's question is “What American fiction character is most popular with Russian children?'’ O © - O O . A stranger passing through our lovely county Friday afternoon would .have smiled in envy at its peaceful quietness, its simple - beauty . „. But chanced that same stranger through our community on Friday night, Saturday or on the Holy Day, his impression of our community would have under-, gone * drastic reversal and he, hurrying to shake himself loose of it, would have frowned and said rvugu ptHCB. '-r--.-.—r-—~-—■—3 A stranger would have been dis-_ turbed. We as people who make .our homes in Rappahannock, what do we think of the whole rotten mess? How do we react to stories of the drunks who thought it fun to crash the dance sponsored by the County Rescue Squad (consequently the Rescue Squad has decided to abandon that means of raising money td operate on) on last Friday night, who fought openly in public places; and who finally took to the main street to air their curses, apparently unconcerned with the “weight of the taw” tfcview occurrences a cure was sought, or perhaps a way to relieve the situation in the immediate future. Since the tension seems to grow to its height on Sunday, this day's misadventures first were considered. And thus a ban on the Sunday sale of beer and wine in the county was pro-* posed to the Board of Supervisors in session yesterday. The... Board turned down the proposal with the exception of one member, W. C. Campbell of Hampton District. One board member did state that he had had a few complaints from citizens of his district. How long must the peace-loving "citizens of Rappahannock be subjected to such hoodlumism? Six days a week can be tolerated, but when a man fears to take his family for a ride on the highways of the county on Sunday, or feels that they will be exposed to Vulgar language and Insults going to or from church, then it is high time that something is done about the situation. Anyone desirous of expressing bis views on this subject may feel free to use the columns of this phper to do so. 1 _ mg of those “interested > in reviving and re-opening the Old Mount Salem Baptist—which some months Was the target of petty vandelism—has been called for Sunday, July 11th.” It's sad m both a ifielaneholy and a realistic way, to think of such a historical marker, such a strong slowly decaying with dis” and "mis” use. ’ » o’ O O O "Getting out this little paper is picnic If we print jokes, people we are silly; if we don’t they axe too serious. If we dip from other papers, we are to write them ourselves; ’t, we are too fond of our stuff. If we don’t print coowe don’t appreciate genius; if we.print them, die is filled With junk. Now, at not, some one Will say Supervisors Reject Proposal To Ban Beef Sales On Sunday For a few minutes Wednesday morning, the 45-minute long July meeting of the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors looked as if it had an “issue” when the proposal w&s made by a county citizen to “ban the county sale of liquor on Sunday.” Supervisor W. C. Campbell followed with the motion to back up the proposal, but it was soon apparent that the motion was to die, for. lack of a second. > The main arguments presented by the supervisors, Commonwealth Attorney William Moffett, and James W. Fletcher, a citizen present at the meeting, were that this ban would serve no useful purpose as it would merely drive the drinking more underground and more rapidly into the hands of the bootlegger. Furthermore, sa i d several of the Supervisors, this ban would take away from the county much money that was brought in by tourists coming through on the _I J I ..L -_I. 1 unj | miu iuv miv wanted liquor were going to get it anyway, the ban would merely make them travel further, or perhaps take off Saturday a.m. in order to stock \ip for the week end. The reason offered for suggesting this ban was that perhaps it would be a partial solution to the disturbances in various places of business in the county and on the ■strocta in. lams towns, Bbws Sr Bowie brought the suggestion before the supervisors* - All six members of the Board were present to discuss the business of the day. Bids for painting all the outside woodwork (2 coats) and the roof (1 coat) on the Treasurer's Office, Clerk's Office, Court House and Jail, were opened by Chairman J. P. Cook. H. T. Updike and Willie Payne were awarded the job with a low bid of $440.v A sheep claim of Mrs. H. L. Manwaring for 2 sheep and 1 lamb was upheld by the Supervisors and she was awarded compensation. Chairman Cook proposed that the Board set aside a certain sum of money (and suggested that $200 or $250 would be adequate) ~ to put on making an outlet from the Reager school, which would eliminate the danger, which the present outlet affords. Campbell made the motion to set aside $200 for just such a purpose, and the motion was seconded by Buckner. f Entertains At Party Miss Betty Johnson entertained a group of her friends at a party last Friday, July 2 at 8 in the evening. Around 50 youths gathered at Miss Johnson’s home Guild Sponsors ; j, Clothes Drive # - v ' Mrs. W. Arthur Miller is collecting clothes for missions, an activity sponsored by the Trinity Auxiliary of the Episcopal church; in Washington. Any member of the Trinity Guild and any other interested person is asked to contact Mrs. W. A. Miller by phoning Washington 2f61 before Monday, July 12. The clothes, which are requests to be mended and clean, will be picked up on Tuesday, July 13.., r • : To Increase Self-Help The 28-man board of director* of Appalachian Apple Service, 4state apple growers' organization, is now conducting over The Belt an active campaign among growers for more adequate funds for advertising The Belt’s apples, thru a 2-cent per bushel fee which is to provide minimum of $100,000 and ihe Board hopes, well above that. All 7 of Virginia’s directors, and 26 of The Board’s 29 directors, have, pledged their full crops, for a starting total of 1,888,000 bus. Virginia directors are: C. E. Johnson, Jr., of Sperryville; Roy McClanahan of Charlottesville; E. Blackburn Moore of Win* Chester; Robert J. Rea of Mt. Jackson, William F! Young of wit cell McCue pf Greenwood. Each director is presenting the program - to the growers in his area. The directors* program is on a voluntary basis. Growers either join or not, as thpy wish. The fee is 2c per bushel on all apples sold from the grower’s orchard, packed or in bulk. The 2c fee, notes Secretary-Manager C. R. Miller of Appalachian, is about equal to the fee when the organization started 18 years ago, of lc per bushel, Utility and better grades. The 1936 dollar is now worth about 52 cents, and Appalachian’s work has been curtailed according*' ' ' V- * if-,:,. - “The program calls for a starts ing minimum of $l00,000, twice the present average working budget. The $100,000 means a signup of 5,000,000 bushels, or about one-fourth of the Belt’s 21,000-,' 000- bushel average crop. But the directors expect well above the 5-million minimum: hope to have half The Belt’s tonnage in shortly, or 10 million bushels to yield $200 000 for the market-building work. In West Virginia, where the campaign got off to an early start, signed pledges’for 1,295,000 bus. - have already been received, with more coming. All pledges are contingent on reaching the $100,000miqimum. reviewing tnc wort none oy Appalachian Service, directors estimate that in several seasons it has returned an added 50 cents per bushel to growers: that the organization’s work is an investment in better apple markets which has demonstrated its effectiveness, except in the important job of advertising to the consumer and that more adequate funds are necessary to convince The Public values and uses. Practically all the* increased funds from the program will go for consumer advertising via TV, newspapers and radio. * The directors point out that about 6 billion dollars, or 2% of the national income, is spent annually for advertising in the United States, and that Food is the biggest by far of all advertisers. Washington State apple growers pay 3c per bushel have arranged to increase that gradually to 6c; now have about $700,000 to spend annually on market promotion. Citrus grower^ (California and Florida) spent about $8,400,000 last season. California Canning Peach Association spent |1,500,000; California Grape Growers $2,500,000; the banana people $600,000.

Chiefs Hold Grovers Scoreless9Til Eighth ' The Rappahannock' Chiefs held the League Leading Oak Grovers to a 0-0 count until the eighth inning Sunday ' afternoon in an exciting game on the Grovers’ diamond. Hockman of the Grovers belted ' a homer in the eighth which touched about 426 feet- to put -the Grovers ahead 1-0. Wymer singled, Williams was safe on an error, and both men stole to move to second and third respectively. A third player was put on and Spiker. -tripled to score all three men.

A. WILLIS ROBERTSON DEFENSE DEMANDS LIMITED CUTS IN APPROPRIATIONS Congress passed all ten of the major departmental appropriation bills for fhe 1955 fiscal year before that year began on July 1 and thus paved the way for an earlyadjournment:——-— 1 hose interested in rederal economy can take comfort from the fact that the total amount of money appropriated in these bills was approximately five and a half billion dollars less than was appropriated in the same bills last year and approximately one and a half billion dollars less than the President’s budget recommendations for the coming year. Those more pessimestically inclined will point out, however, that whereas we ended the 1954 fiscal year last week with a deficit of around $3.3 billion, the Treasury is estimating that the deficit at the end of this year will be closer to four billion.' That is because the reductions in spending authorizations have been more than matched bv tax cuts that will reduce the Government’s revenue collections. Early this year I predicted, in one of these columns, that our ability to balance the Federal budget next year would depend largely on the international situation and that unless conditions improved quickly such a balance would be impossible. Such a large percentage of Federal spending in recent y^ars has been for security purposes that it is difficult to make a real showing in budget cutting without reducing defense funds and that obviously cannot be done to any extent while we face the imminent threat of another world war. The 1953 appropriation for the Department of Defense was $34.3 billion and we reduced that this year to $28.8 billion, which was around one billion prudently go at this time and we all recognize that it Conditions in Latin-America, East Asia or in other areas where the Communists are formenting Troubled become “more- critical—it - will be necessary to make a supplemental appropriation before this fiscal year is over which will wipe out our . intended savngs on detense. ' Congress has not yet acted on the Mutual Security appropriation, for which the President asked $3.5 billion as compared with $4.5 billion appropriated last -year. Considering tire- large- carry__ over I am inclined to think that we can make a substantial cut in the new budget. That would mean doing away with most economic aid," for which I believe the time has passed, and ,J also feel that we should limit our military aid to those nations which clearly demonstrate their willingness to cooperate with us and with each other in holding the line against totalitarian agression. * Dr. Lyle Hansbrough Dies Suddenly v Rappahannock County was* shocked and saddened Monday by the news of the death of Dr. Lyle Jamison Hansbrough, 43, skilled and widely-famed surgeon ofWarren Memorial Hospital, a personal friend and the friendly physician to many citizens of the county. Dr. Hansbrough died in his home on the Browntown Road at 4:30 Monday morning. The sadness and shock was intensified because few persons had been aware of Dr. Hansbrough’s serious illness of a few days. Dr. Hansbrough’s skill as a surgeon was complemented by equal adeptness as a diagnostician. Only a few days ago, he diagnosed his own condition as one of malignant lucemia which was confirmed by a laboratory examination in Univer sity of Virginia Hospital. . / He was descended from a line of physicians. His father was the late Dr. Lyle F. Hansbrough, and his grandfather was Dr. M. F. Hansbrough, all identified with Front Royal and Warren County. Dr. Lyle J. Hansbrough was born in Front Royal, attended local schools and attended Randolph Macon Academy. He was graduated in medicine from the University of Virginia, in 1936, and serving a surgic^ residency there for several years and, also irt Good Samaritan Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio. In 1943, he returned to * Front Royal. In his secondary schooldays he had incurred an injury to his back which entailed several surgical operations. However, he accepted the -position as surgeon in the former Front Royal Community Hospital, and continued in that capacity on tjie “opening—of—Warren—Memorial_ Hospital, until his death. Dr. Hansbrough was the son of the late Dr. Lyle F. Hansbrough, and Mrs. Corrine Miller Hansbrough of Front Royal, who wras a native of Westernport, Md. Besides his mother, he is survived by his wife, Mrs. Helen ' Trimble Hansbrough, formerly of Lincoln, Nebraska, and five sons, Gary, one month old._ A private funeral service was held Wednesday afternoon at 2 p.m. in the home, conducted by the Rev. Richard H. Forrester of Front Royal’*Methodist church.’ Burial was in the Prospect Hill Cemetery. $185.00 EITHER RING MAY BE PURCHASED SEPARATELY C.ROY JONES Jeweler fclJLPEPER, VA. 1952 CHEVROLET 2-Door Sedao Radio, Heater, ajid New Paint Job Power-Glide Transmission $1050.00 .v * *>j ViV , ' :\i ' ■ ' ■ FROST 4 ft 'M :'; y ....** * ' * i * < - On The By-Pass _-_A_:_ WARRENTON, VA.

Citizens Disapprove Purchase of Bonds ' The sentiment expressed in the town meeting held Friday 25th called to discuss publicly the purchasing of the Water Bonds by the town of Washington, showed the majority of those present^ around 25, to be opposed to any 'change of khe situation, as is. ‘ Eugene Cossell, representing the bond holders, offered the bonds to the town for 80c on $1. It was immediately evident that * the townspeople at the meeting were largely opposed; to this proposal, giving such reasons as: 1. Why should the town obligate herself for such a debt; they can’t be made to pay them the way it is now; 2. The persons who bought the work’s bonds made a bad investment, and therefore must, as investors, bear the brunt of “fate” or “loss”. The water works are no good, so why should the town invest money in something that may break down any minute; and, VISTA . $200 Also $r.oo_ to $247) Wedding Ring $12.50 Perfectly matched pair—guaranteed perfect gem.

The town has no moral obligation after, each individual family pays the agreed upon 1.75; 5. The bond holders are offering the bonds at a much too high rate. Numerous other arguments wdre interpressed at various^ intervals, but were very similar in sentiment and value with theaforementioned. The basis of the argument offered by these in the minority who wanted to look further into the purchasing idea, was that: 1. Washington, as a town which is benefiting from water supplies, and Washingtonians, as individuals who are benefiting from this water supply, have an unwritten oblization to the buyers of the bonds, by whose grace the benefits are aforded and 2. Moreover, it would be a sound financial investment, as the bond holders find theirs to be when they collect 4 percent interest (nontaxable) per year on their bonds. The decision whether to further consider the purchase lies in the hands of the town council of Washington, who will discuss the issue in their regular meeting. MISSIONARY SOCIETY The Missionary Society of the Washington Baptist Church met at the church Tuesday evening, July 6 at 2:30 to discuss their topic of the month, “Seed Time in the Philippines.” Mrs. L. J. Turner acted as program leader for the meeting. A hymn “To The Work” was included in the program. Among those taking part in the devotional period were Mrs. Gilbert Updike, Mrrs. D. C. Updike, Mrs. C. G. Reid, and Mrs. Stant Weaver. Ten members attended this July meeting, with one new member, Mrs. V. R. Updike, present. WATCH REPAIRING .. .. ..
