VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 12, 1*54 Price* $2.00 PER YEAR Just for the record we of the Rappahannock News would like to get this straight: On our oath as gentlemen we vow that we honestly didn’t fall off the wagon; we could too walk a straight line. It wasn’t our fault. The Front Royal merchants really wanted their ads upside -down, sideways and kaddy kornered. It’s them, not us. (Betcha read them), o o o o Who is the Shakespeare of Russia? Elementary, Dear Watson’—It’s Alexander Pushkin, perhaps the, most famous of all Rus. sian poets. For our free subscription this week we would like for you to translate the following directions given a poor fellow: “Hey Joe, run down to the morgue for me. I need this pic before I can write thirty on a scoop for the bulldog. And when you get back don’t forget to kill this page. It’s all dead. Throw in the ear, but save that masthead, and if you dare pi that on you, pronto.” o o o o We were proud of the behavior at the carnival in Washington this past week. The citizens, of the county were cooperative, arid in addition, the carnival itself appeared to be a clean show. fowo Budget Meeting Set For August 23 The Annual Public Meeting on the Budget was set by the Washington Town Council, in their August meeting Tuesday night, for Monday. August 23 at 8 p.m. All persons having requests for changes in the year’s budget should appear before the board with their arguments, Mrs. J. W. Critzer, Council member and Mayor Mrs. George Davis will represent the town of Washington in the Municipal Convention in Roanoke on September 19, 20, and 21. The council approved the recommendation of several council members that Downing Wood be contacted in regards to the street by his packing shed being blocked by trailers. The council will request that the street be blocked only when trailers are loading and unloading. A trash can has been obtained for placement in the playground. “Thus picnickers will have some where to dispose of trash. Current bills were heard and approved by the council. Flint Hill Methodists Picnic At Eliz. Furnace Wadirtg over a multitude of legs and pulling a stray bathing suit from under a pile of hay, around 100 youths and adventrous parents scrambled from the * hay filled truck that had wound its way to the picnic grounds _ at Elizabeth Furnace, Saturday morning. Less daring folks, wishing to go to this annual Sunday School picnic. sponsored by the Flint Hill Methodist Church, had resorted to_ cars and other vehicles for transportation. ' Once at the picnic grounds, the group scattered, some to the ice’' cold water of the swimming hole, sqme to the pleasures of a basehall game and still forgotten others to the “getting ready for dinner.”- > H. D. Pilgrim Records Events On Journey To Williamsburg Traveling with light hearts and light luggage, sixteen ladies and one brave man started for Williamsburg on July 20th. The ladies were homemakers from Castleton, Sperryvilie, Washing-. ton, Flint Hill, Huntly, and Massanova Homemakers’ clubs, and Paul Thompson of Sperryvilie, , was the lone man. The two-day trip had been planned by Mrs. Paul Thompson and she had made all arrangements for lodging in Williamsburg. A flat tire was the only cause of excitement on the way to the colonial city and Mr. Thompson proved his value by helping to change it. This afforded a 7th inning stretch for the ladies and a Thompson. • Everyone was anxious to get started sight-seeing and as there was little time left before the historic buildings were to close for the day, they walked to Bruton Parish Church. The lecturer was about to make his final talk for, the day, and the travelers were fortunate enough to hear it. IHs a1 strange feeling to know one is treading on the very floor atid into . the Very building where George Washington, Patrick H e n r y, Thomas Jefferson and many more * equally famous men.once worshipped. Much of this historic building is original as it was not destroyed in the fire that swept Williamsburg in the early days. The oldest baptismal font in this countryis in this ancient church, brought there from Jamestown. Offerings of tourists keep this church open for inspection of the public and it is not under the Colonial Williamsburg restoration project. It is one of the most interesting sights in the city, how' ever. Afte/ dinner at the lodge, the tourists went out to Lake Matoaka to see the pageant “The Common Glory.” Since there was such a large group, special attention was given to finding good seats. The ushers were most helpful. One group was invited back stage, before thf performance ■ otA A/1 f/\ Untril ♦Wo • *■ rv« n J A W » V V1SV*« J/IVlUtV 111UVIV with the comic actor, David Friedman, who takes the part of Cephas, the chicken thief. The natural ampi-theatre, is located'on the shore of beautiful Lake Matoka, named for the Indian princess Pocahontas, (Matoaka was her Indian name). The spot is surrounded by tall oak and pine trees. A small symphony orchestra and an organ furnished appropriate music. This pageant depicts the events leading up to the Revolutionary War including the drafting of Declaration of Independence and to its final scene. Besides the exciting historical events, an accomplished ballet interpreted , scenes of joy, sorrow, fear and triumph. After a good nights re^t and a breakfast where the waiter continually replenished the coffee cups, the pilgrims were ready for ,their trip to Jamestown, the very "cradle of the English speakng new world. 1607 is the. date the spot ■■ was selected for settlement.

Firemen’s Carnival Draws Record Crowd An unplanned climax to the carnival sponsored by the Washington Volunteer Fire Department was afforded Saturday night when Lewis Carter and Francis Carter presented L. V. Merrill, Fire Chief with a check for $78.00 from the members of the First Baptist Church, Washington. An additional check, for $6.00, was given by an anonymous donor, under the name of First Baptist Church, on the following day. The Carnival had played to a good attendance the 5 nights it was open. (Rain prevented its opening—orr-Thursday night).Behavior was excellent throughout _the week.__ — The deep freeze given away by the Fire Company was received by C. O. Hawkins of Winchester. ... When the carnival moved into Washington, Monday, the lot was full of kids supervisirig the “setting-up” and pitching in a helpful, hand hoping for a free ride. But Saturday night, the scene had undergone a change. The lot was deserted but for carnival workers, who quickly disassembled the rides and. packed them into . compact trucks. The night of work was beginning for them, while children, long abed, ^lept soundly admid dreams of next v year’s ^‘carnival time,”. ,. . * CHECK PRESENTED TO FIRE DEPARTMENT LEWIS CARTER, with committee member Francis Carter looking on, presents a check to L.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: On advance) —- $2.00 a year WE WISH TO THANK . . We wish to thank the people of surrounding communities, especially the people of the Flint Hill area, for their help in-making our ' Washington Firemen’s Carnival a success. Their eagerness to help anywhere needed and the resulting hours of work are appreciated. Although we realize that the carnival was a community affair, we also realize that without ^he cooperation of the whole county, it would have failed. We thank you for your interest. —Washington Volunteer Fire Department as viewed by YOUR SENATOR A. WILLIS ROBERTSON PRINCIPLES INVOLVED IN FARM BILL DECISION During my 21 years of service in Congress I have endeavored to translate into Twentieth Century terms the principles of our gfreat—cst political philosopher—Thomas Jefferson—and it was in that spirit that I took my position on the farm bill debated by the Sen- ate last week. Jefferson believed that those least governed were the best governed and that the central government should limit its functions to those which could not properly be handled by the states and their local sub-divisions. He believed also in private enterprise and a minimum of government control over activities of individuals. » * The chief point at issue in the farm bill was whether the Senate would agree with the House of Representatives and with seven out of fifteen members of the Senate Agriculture Committee on a price support program with a flexible feature or whether it would accept the recommendation of the majority of eight members of its Agriculture Committee who reported a bill calling for a continuation of rigid support for basic crops at 90 percent of parity. A third alternative we had to consider was that if we passed a bill the r resident, who has advocated flexible supports, was unwilling to sign and which could not be passed over a veto, the present law allowing supports to drop to 75 percent of parity would become effective next year. V subsidy which agriculture lias received from price supports is a direct result ®f the essential need during World War II to stimulate domestic production of food and fibre to the point where there would be a surplus above our own needs which we could furnish to our allies. To justify farmers in taking the risk of increasing their ^'production in excess of domestic market demands the government promised them a floor under their prices for an appropriate period of readjustment after the war' ended. In 1949—four years after the end of the shooting war—we attempted to start this readjustment by ; passage of a bill to end fixed support for basic crops but the effective date of .this law was postponed and our biggest losses tyve occurred during the last five years, primarily as a result of attempts to support perishable products such as potatoes, butter, and cheese. Now we face additional big losses from wheat surpluses which have accumulated because the acreage reduction law was not enforced as .we gradually lost our foreign markets. __,_The bill which I supported in the Senate eliminated the unwork— •able plan for supporting perishables and permitted a reduction to as lour as 80 percent for wheat. It made no change in the 90 percent support for tobacco, on w'hich there has been no loss because production has been kept in line with market demands. It also provided 90 percent support for wool, of which wre produce only one-third of our domestic needs. Next year cotton will be supported at 90 per cent and that support level can be continued if production Ts properly controlled. Peanuts will be supported for another two years at not less than 86 percent of parity. In general, the bill provides that supports can continue at 90 percent but only if farmers are willing to cooperate by producing to meet market demands instead of for sale to the government. If they prefer to produce without the restriction of acreage allotments and marketing quotas they can do so, but should not look to the government to guarantee them against losses. This, I believe, is in keeping wn’th Jefferson’s principles and a step in the direction of returning agriculture to the free state It— should enjoy except under war - emergency conditions. _ Since we have practically completed our program of legislation," except for conference reports scheduled to be acted on this week, this is the latest weekly news report which I shall make on this . session of the Congress. SPEECH OF HON. BURR P. HARRISON of Virginia In The House of Representatives Tuesday, June 29, 1954 Mr. VORYS. Mr. Chairman, I offer an amendment which I send to the Clerk’s desk. The Clerk read as follows: Amendment offered by Mr. Vorys: On page 14, after line 8, - insert the following'. It is the sense of the Congress that no part of the funds appropriated under this section shall be used on behalf of governments which are committed by treaty to maintain Communist rule over any defined territory of Asia.” Mr. HARRISON of Virginia. Mr. Chairman, I offer an amendment to the amendment. The Clerk read as follows: . Amendment , offered by Mr. HARRISON of Virginia as an amendment to the Vorys amendment'. At the conclusion of the amendment add the words "for the use in combat of any miltary f orces of the United States without approval by Congress ** Mr. HARRISON of Virginia. Mr. Chairman, I am in favor of • the amendment offered by the gentleman from Ohio. That amendment states that the funds appropriated in this act or authorized in this act shall not be used to carry out a certain kind of peace treaty. I am m favonol that.. . My amendment goes further and adds the provison that neither shall the funds be used in furtherance of unauthorized war undeclared by this Congress. I do not knt>w what the administration policy is in Indochina ; I do not think anybody ~~kno ws; Ithinkitis in process of formation. The Vice President in an off-the-recOrd speech indicated that we would have to go to war. The Speaker of this House said, “No,*we would not”; that all that was needed there was domestic Jroops. The Secretary of State seems to have been talking a great deal lately about the circumstances under which we would go to war in Indochina. So I do not know what the policy really is. With all due respect, it seems to be one that changes from week to week, from day to day, and from hour to hour. War in Indochina is: a responsibility that belongs to this Congress, and while we are saying that we are not going to allow money to be spent on a certain kind of peace trea$ or nations that adopt that peace treaty, I propose that we also say that we will not permit money to be spent on a war until this Congress declares it or permits the use of combat troops. Mr. CHIPERFIELD. I am wondering whether or not section 102 of the bill does not take care «-hat sit'»)3tir>n,... Mr. HARRISON of Virginia. I do not think so. Mr. CHIPERFIELD. The gentleman from Virginia knows I supported in committee an amendment somewhat similar to the one he has now offered. The record on this points out that section 102 makes clear that United States military personnel can be assigned to foreign nations only for noncombat duty, including furnishing of training and advice. The language was i ncluded to give reassurance that the military assistance authorized in this bill does not include participation by the United States forces in eombat. I am wondering IE that languarge would not take care of the amendment that the gentleman from Virginia suggests. Mr. HARRISON of Virginia. That language authorizes the use of troops under certain circumstances. This amendment forbids the use of troops. I think there is a great difference. The CHAIRMAN. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Harrison) to the Vorys amendment. ‘ 1 ne amendment to the amendment was rejected. Mr. HARRISON of Virginia. Mr. Chairman, I offer an amendment which is, at the desk. The Clerk read as follows: Amendment offered by Mr. Harrison of Virginia On page 13, line 17, after "Presidentstrike out the remainder of line 17 and all of lines 18, through line 24, the word “addition’ in line 25. , And on page 14, line 7, after the word "1955", strike out the balance of line 7 and all of line 8. Mr. HARRISON of Virginia. Mr. Chairman, the purpose or this amendment is to strike out the authorization of $800 million for Indochina. This bill, as reported by the committee, in reauthorizaton and in new money, provides for Indochina $2,200,000,000. The effect of this amendment would be to reduce that to $1,400000,000. Mr. Chairman, when we speak of flexiblity, of which we have heard a great deal today, we should recognize that never before in any of this sort of legislation hasv such absolute power, such flexibility, been given to the executive branch as in this provision dealing with Indochiha. It has always been the custom and die proper custom, for the executive to come forward and justify what it intended to do with funds asked of this Congress to be authorized. In this case the executive did that by evidence in support of the Navarre plan. It supported it with tables, charts and testimony. All of that is now defunct, and this proposal is now, without any evisometime, some day, we are going" to formulate a policy in Indochina, and the Congress gives the money in advance in approval of it. I think that is bad policy to surrender the power of this Congress over the purse and over appropriations. The CHAIRMAN. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. HarrisPn). The amendment was rejected. Co. Farmers, Apply Nitrogen This Month -*__ Nitrogen applied now or in early August will give pastures a much-needed boost for fall grazing or hay. John F. Shoulders, associate agronomist at VPI, says applying 30 to 50 .pounds of ‘nitrogen to pastures will increase the amount of herbage when rains come, if enough phosphate and potash are present. If the pasture was topdressed last winter or spring with at least 500 pounds per acre of a recommended fertlizer. enou ghphosphate and potash likely will be present so nitrogen alone will give the desired results.

Have Drastically Reduced Feed and Seed Prices UNDER ' Farmers9 Self-Help Drought Emergency Program In many sections of Southern States’ operating territory a devastating drought has played havoc, adding to the problems of farmers already squeezed by lower farm prices and high production costs. In some areas the drought has struck for the third time in as many yeats, making the situation even more disastrous. The farmers who own and use Southern States Cooperative^—283,000 strong—are doing something about it under their own self-help program of working together. DROUGHT EMERGENCY PASTURE_~__' , Prices on Balbo and Abruzzi rye and Domestic Rye Grass have been drastically and arbitrarily reduced—rye from 30 to 36 cents per bushel, and rye grass about $1.75 per 100 pounds. Yet Southern States’ high quality standards have been maintained. These seeds may still be ‘ seeded with the coming of the rains for late fall, early winter and earl/ spring pasture. Pasture is by far the cheapest and one of the very best ieeds. Its use can greatly reduce the amount of hay afcd grain which otherwise would have to be purchased, and thus substantially reduce ieeaing costs. To help you lower your production costs, Southern States is pricing these seeds below cost, and service agencies are handling them at their approximate cost.

Juanita Tribune: "If you think you can have a balanced economy for some groups—industry, labor, government operations and professions—in our social order and not in others, you’re sadly mistaken. A balanced economy that doesn’t include all classes simply is headed for trouble. Boys and Brothers, we’re headed for the 1920’s all over again if we don’t mend our ways. You may talk about slaughtering little pigs, destroying our cotton and potato surpluses—but, in the name of all decency to civilization, don’t peep a word about the billions and billions of surpluses we had at the end of World War II.” v R- L. Fisher■, Danville (Ark) Yell'Cotinty Record: “Price protection for farmers is necessary as long as the government sets minimum wages in industry.” H ugh Doak, Manchester (Tenn.) Times'. “The whole scheme of price supports as contemplated is wrong. Farm products should have a minimum price, same as labor.” Joe Sklenar, Audubon (Iowa) News-Guide'. “The end must come and I think the farmer should not be guaranteed a profit any more than a newspaper publisher should. It’s out of reason. Some kind of farm supports are practical but the tax-payers have been paying too heavily for this in the past.” Charles Sughroe, Stockton (III) Herald-N e ws/. “The Farm Bureau has been against government subsidies and interference. Farmers here are driving the ne\y cars.” T. C. * MerchantMadison (Fla.)

Turner Hurls Shutout Chiefs Hold Second; Climb Towards 0. G. Nine strike-outs—hurled—hr Pitcher John Turner led the Rappahannock Chiefs to a 10-0 shut out victory over the Oak Grovers, Sunday afternoon. This win over Oak Grove—the Chiefs’ first— moved the Rappahannock team to Within one game of first place. Both teams failed to score in the first inning but in the Chiefs’ half of the second Junior Hawkins walked and John Turner scored him with a long triple. Everybody went down in order 3-3 until the first of the seventh, when after two men were down, the Chiefs rallied with one safe hit following, another. James Settle walked, and J. Hawkins, J. Turner, Pete Clater and Buck Clater singled. The Grovers seemed unable to plug the burst of hits as Charles Dodson, Ned Settle,. Elmer Foster, Newbill Miller and James Settle all singled bringing in nine runs and sending the score to a 10-0 count. The Grovers tried vainly to break into the scoring, but they were retired in short fashion in the last two innings. The Chiefs were held at their 10 run lead and the game ended, all scoring having been chalked up, during the second and seventh frames. CHIEFS ab r h 5 1 1 5 1 2 4 1 1 P. Clater B. Clater C.

Distrrict Fores-? ter D. G. Wilfong, Jr., says this this increase of "fires during this dry weather has maifily been caused by smokers. Mr. Wilfong further stated that he does not believe that all of the people in Virginia are familiar with the new forestry legislation that went into effect July 1, 1954, concerning throwing inflammatory objects from a vehicle on highways while in or near some lands. For everyone’s information this new legislation is quoted below: “It shall be unlawful for any person to throw, toss of drop from a vehicle moving or standing on a highway any lighted smoking material, lighted match, lighter material of any nature, or any bomb, device or contraption liable to setfire to inflammable material on the ground while in or near any forest land, brush land or field containing inflammable vegetation or trash. Any person violating the pro- ' visions of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon Conviction thereof, shall be punished by confinement in jail for a period not exceeding thirty days or fined not less than ten dollars nor more than one hundred dollars, or both, for each separate offense.” * f —D.

Miller Phone 2191 WASHINGTON, VA. in Virginia follows a seasonal pattern. Few cases are reported in the first six months of the year; from the middle of July through the first week in September an increasing number of cases occur each week, with a general decline following this. In Virginia, as in the rest of the country, there are not many cases as had been reported last.year at this time. Simple precautions taken, may prevent the spread of the disease: 1. Do not go places where polio is occurring. 2. Avoid crowds and unnecessary travel by common conveyance. Keep your children within their own groups. 3. *Avoid fatigue; avoid chilling. 4. Carefully wash hands before eating and after using the toilet. «. 5. Postpone nose and throat operations and, in children over six months of age, postpone routine immunizations. 6. Parents should pay attention to changes in the normal state of health of their children. Call a physician if there are symptoms of headache, nausea, upset stomach, fever, muscle soreness or stiffness. Do not borrow trouble or worry, but be calmly alert. DROWNING TOLL CAN BE SLASHED Recent newspaper articles of drowning bring to mind the fact that while swimming is a healthy summer exercise and while for those^ who only bathe the water can be very refreshing, at the same time it can be dangerous. Wait at least one hour after eating before going in the water. Do not go in when overtired or overheated. Know the water before diving; know that it is deep enough and that there are no submerged rocks or logs. Do not try long swims without an accompanying boat. Swim parellel to shore. Do not swim alone or at night. Do not become panicky if you get cramps; try to knead them out witfPyour handsT*Tf“caugh'f fri 3rl“ undertow, go with it and come to the surface as soon as possible. Float when you become tired in water over your head. If you do not swim do not enter water over your waist and know the condition of the bottom so that you will not step in holes. Do not stand or change seats in small boats or canoes. Do not attempt to rescue if you do not swim or if you swim poorly* ' ■ Know how to give first aid and artificial respiration.

tf mMNf tlfMltf •• w M9WMMI RAPP-OHAT8 By: W. H. Lyne • County Again Ohio Calf Exhibit Selected The exhibit of Virginia Feeder Calves to be made at the Ohio State Fair, at Columbus: late this month was selected Monday at the Culpeper Livestock yards by C. P.' McClaugherty, of the State Division of Markets; K. C. Williamson and George Litton, of V. P. *1.; and Allen Randolph, o£ the Virginia Beef Cattle Producers Association. Twenty-eight calves were selected from forty odd head previously selected by the Culpeper and the Rappahannock Angus Breeders Feeder Calf Sales Committees. •These were moved to Mr. Loving’s farm near Culpeper for final weaning, feeding, and sprucing up operations. Producers of the selection were;, James W. Fletcher, 9 head; Carlton Clore, 9 head; Mr. Sims, 4 head; Mr. Loving, 3 head; Brandy Rock, 2 head; and Bending River, 1 head.. Final selection of calves to go to Ohio will be made around 23 rd of August to consist of 23-25 head. After the calves get to Columbus twenty head will be selected for the exhibit to compete with others from elsewhere in the United States. Reports from Ohio at present indicate there will be from 4 to 6 lots in competition not only ior me prize money ottered by the fair but mainly to crack the big cattle feed lot trade of the Ohiq and Michigan corn belt. While the local sales committees are not completely satisfied with what they have to go to Ohio, they do sincerely appreciate the cooperation displayed by local producers and believe the calves are much better than those exhibited at Michigan last year. I, for one, believe, with any luck at all in' keeping the exhibit on feed and in -good, health, the feeder calf producers from elsewhere will certainly know that Virginia has been to Ohio before the big show is over! 4-H»Boys Get Dairy Heifers On Saturday, July 31, Ivory Atkins,and son, Ivory Atkins Jr., Isaac Menefee and son, Billy, Glenn Williams and your county agent, journeyed to Culpeper Co. to look over Holstein heifers to be purchased for 4-H project work. Two eight-month-old heifers were selected from the Russell Inskeep herd both being daughter^ of the proven Canadian bull, Emerald, swhich was brought by the Virginia Artificial Breeding Ass’n. from Temple Slaughter of Culpeper *at an attractive price and which was considered, up until his death early this year, to be one ot the better tioisteins at v/yba bull center. These heifers are out S of cows which produced from ! 1069 lbs. of milk up to 16,970 ! lbs. per lactation and therefore should develop into, excellent producers themselves. Being a former 4-H member himself, and having three sons who he hopes someday will be 4-H’ers, Mr. Inskeep was most considerate in pricing and allowing our Rappahannock boys to select these particular animals. Our sincere appreciation to Mr. Inskeep is in order. Son of Champions A letter from Joe and Chris Moye, Farmville, N. C., advises that “J and C Tops,” the Poland China boar purchased in June to head the Sears, Roebuck 4-H Sow Chain in Rappahannock, is not only sired by a Illinois Junior Champion Boar but in addition is out of a Nebraska Grand Cham- ’ pion sow! No wonder “J and C Tops” has been admired by all the | Rappahannock f arm e r s and \ 4-H’ers who have been by Walter jp. KilbyV tq kee hi®. With this \ I kind of background he should be nice and believe you me he is nice! I wonder whether a better hog, from the standpoint of popular breeding of individual conformation, ever came to Rappahannock before? - Atkins Sold Out • Ivory Atkins, Jr., 4-H’er of Flint Hill, reports he has sold all ofhis firstTitter of Poland China pigs as breeders. One boar went to Mt. Jackson, one to Herbert Foster and one to. his dad. All of the gilts were placed in Rappahannock so Sears, Roebuck" Foundation is making a real contribution towards improving Rappahannock swine. You know, Herbert Foster’s son, Gavor, was* owner of' the Sears sows several years ago—did a good job—so did the sow as well as her off spring and now Herbert has come back to get some more blood of these “good doin’’ hogs. Don’t know, but should be thatCharles Leake at Fred Dodson’s, or Eddie Sutphin, son of the Raymond Sutphin, all from Flint Hill, still have some choice pigs on hand. Professor Teske saw the litter from Charlie’s sow 'and promptly bought a boar while Mr. Decker from Green County came over and purchased a gilt from Eddie. D. A. Jacobs of Castleton also bought one of Eddie’s boars. In recent months a farmer could make money on most any kind oi hog but it appears from now or the most money will be made from feeding modern meat type hogs, These 4-H Polands have beer selected for meat-type and large litters for eight years not considering the selection and breeding that went into the original foundation gilts and boars which came from the J. E. Terrill Estate herd which is recognized as one of THE TOP POLANE CHINA HERDS IN VIRGINIA.
