On this particular curve ( near Spring House Farm) so many mishaps have Occurred during the past few years that the owners of the property had to move their fence back away from the rightof-way (shown by a dotted line). Approaching this curve from the south, going down hill, there is a sign stating that the maximum safe speed for this section of road is 30 miles per hour. This sign is X065 feet before you get to the bad part of the curve, which is elevated so slightly that you can hardly notice the difference. Something should be done about this and other dangerous curves in our county or else people will be saying stay out of Rappahannock for their roads are a deathtrap. This curve will be s brought to the attention; of the Highway Resident Engineer at the next regular Boa^d of Supervisors meeting. If you know of any more existing danger spots let your Supervisor know before November 3. P,-T. A.

Alias “Steve Wilson” Makes Home inRapTt. !_L On Four Eagles Farm at Amissville live an unassuming couple \yho have found the restful but seldom quiet melody of country living much to their liking. Some of Rappahannock has already found the charming couple, but to those of us who know only the name, we attempt to lend, the personality and its background. . . For many years, Mr. Pawley' played the part of Steve Wilson in the radio drama, “Big Town.” JC serious actor, 'he has appeared on Broadway in such plays as “Elmer Gantry,” the Pulitzer Prize winner, The Shane Woman, and in * The Guardsman with Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontaine. Mrs. rawiey, the former Helen Shipman, was one of the youngest prima donnas ever to appear on the Big Stem. She started out at the age of 3 giving impersonations of the great stars of the theatre. Later -her talents took her to musical comedy and Irene, Caroline and Kosher Kilty. Though retired, Mr. and Mrs. f Pawley cannot resist an occasional forage into the world of the theatre. Only recently, they advised a group of young actors who staged a pageant depicting the history of Chincateague Island, Accomac County. This pageant highlighted an outdoor week-long show at the annual Sportsman’s Show and Fishing Tournament, sponsored by the Yacht and Sportsman’s Club of which Mr. Pawley is a member. v ~ ; At Four Eagles, Mrs. Pawley is busy with a pet project which may eventually eclipse her theatrical fame. It centers on the produc-"; ting of canned goods for diabetics with the brand name, Virginia Honey Girl. These foods have already gained national distribution. . (Cont'd. to page 6) s Citizens Discuss Sunday Beer Ban Tension was at a high pitch in Wednesday’s meeting of the Board of Supervisors, as citizens appeared to express their opinions on the sale of wine and beer in the county between the hours of 12 o’clock Saturday night and 6 o’clock Monday morning. This public hearing was the result of a motion by W. C. Campbell, seconded by A. H. Buckner and approved unanimously in the September meeting stating that “the Board desires to hear the views of citizens of the County FOR and AGAINST the adoption of prdiances prohibiting the sale of Wine and Beer. . . _ - Both sides of the issue were well represented in the crowded court room, with a smattering of dealers, organization representatives, and just plain interested persons airing their views. - V - n. cj. l natch, Mrs. Lmbert Updike, George.W. Bowman, III, U. J. Turner, Mrs. Fannie Eastham and G. M. Profitt were among those who expressed their approval of the “Sunday ban.” There were many others who “went on record” as opposing the Sunday "sale. (Among these were Supervisor Campbell and Judge R. V; Snead). In their reasoning they advanced the following: per, haps the ban would be a partial solution to the disturbances in r various places in the' county ; " it would make workers more able to be on' their jobs come Monday - morning; it would lessen the traffic hazards; it would eliminate the influx of out-of-county people who come merely ‘to drink’; and it would lessen the number of —boarders at the jail house. Moreover it would eliminate for that time, the liquid lure to youth. They pointed out also since the adjoining counties had followed this ban, there must be adequate reason for doing so. This ban in -neighboring counties would, too, give the drinkers a goodly ways to travel in order to buy beer and wine. Throughout the talks their was a strain of feeling that this would really be the best thing for the' county, to preserve and (Cont’d/to page 6) * Ol8ters-Yoiing*un8 Battle To Finish Grunts and groans echoed thickly amid the steady flow of rubbing liniment Monday morning. preventing this reporter from having an extended interview w|th any victim of Sunday’s Softball games between the Married Women-Single Women; and the Married Men-Single Men.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHER THURSDAY MORNING - f 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: 'an advance)-:--- $2.00 a year All Nations Work For Common Goal The annual conference of the Boards of Governors of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the International Monetary Fund, during which I have had the pleasure of serving as an adviser to the United States Delegation, gave a heartening demonstration of separate nations working together to achieve a common goal. That goal is expansion of the flow of money and goods throughout the free world, in development not only of economic strength but also of the political harmony so necessary for a truly peaceful world. The task of attaining it is not easy, but certainly it is yital to us all. Nowhere is that more appreciated than in my own State of Virginia, where the foundation for the free enterprise system of the United States of America was laid down some three and a half centuries ago on a base of trans-ocean trade in tobacco and other products. Virginia’s history provides an inspiring example of how production and trade, without hamstringing government restrictions, transformed a wilderness into a flourishing civilization. And it was no mere coincidence that Virginia also, in 1619, introduced the principle of representative government—government of the people through their elected representatives—upon the shores of the New World. We in the United States today, in the interests of ourselves and the world, are happy when others make progress along the same lines, and we are glad to help them toward that end. We have given proof of that in many ways, including the active part we have taken in the International Bank and Fund operations since their beginning a decade Ago. Today, though the flow of private capital remains below the prewar rate of investment, the volume of international trade is far greater than before the war, with goods to the value of nearly 80 billion dollars being bought and sold annually by the free world. Both investment and trade will be stimulated further if we can succeed in obtaining a further relaxation of the restrictions and controls that still hamper the interchange of money as well as goods In an atmosphere of real economic freedom, private business in all countries will find the opportunities and incentives necessary for larger and more efficient production. Of the mutual benefits to be derived, there can be no doubt. The United States, through overseas grants and purchases, has greatly aided other countries to restore their productive capacity and recover economic strength since the war. Then, when the United States was undergoing a decline some months ago, the strength of other economics, particularly in Europe, helped to stem the. downturn here by sustaining the market for American exports. Probably the greatest thing the United States can do now to promote a continued increase in world trade is to secure a steady, sustainable rate of growth for its own economy. A properous America is a good consumer as well as a good producer. Similarly, the ability of other nations to contribute to trade expansion will be conditioned upon their success in getting their own finances in order, their monetary systems on a sound basis and bringing about greater economic unity in Western Europe. It seems to me that the major lesson from the experience of the last few years has been that the road to world prosperity and tfWAy ijtf/ie $foewufUion& iPfion fyfoiiten /in SBaHnf £t\ /V Pkkhafs jou have noticed that the prescriptions which your physician writes are usually written in Latin. No doubt you hare wondered why. Prescriptions are written in Latin because Latin, a never-changing language, is uni* versally employed in medical practice. A Latin prescription written in America or England can be filled in Puerto Rioo, Russia, or France, even though the pharmacist may not know a word of English. On the other hand, no matter where your prescriptions may be written, we fill them .. promptly. ■i. tLEWIS PHARMACY Dial 8322 CULPEPER world peace lies through freer and duller international exchange of nwoey and goods but that any country wanting to build an approach to that road must first lay down a firm financial footing. That is not a new lesson. Two of Virginia’s most honored sons, President Woodrow Wilson and' my own revered predecessor in the United States Senate, Carter Glass, showed they knew it when they advocated lower tariffs and constructed the Federal Reserve System forty years ago as a bulwark to the American financial and economic structure. The International Bank and Monetary Fund must follow similar sound principles. The feeling among those attending tthe meetings here has been that these agencies must proceed cautiously with expansion plans until there is more stability in Western £urope, tangible evidence that the surge of extreme nationalism which followed France's repudiation of EDC can be curbed and assurance from our Congress that “trade and not aid” is something more than a political shiboleth. It was disturbing to our friends and allies when the last session of Congress turned down the President’s recommendations in that behalf. cecause the road to world prosperity does not follow the up-anddown of booms and busts our nation, as the world’s financial center and biggest world trader, also must do its part in helping to curb world wide inflation. With the exception of Spain the currencies of all nations are now greatly inflated and that is reflected in stock prices on the major exchanges of the world. On our own New York Stock Exchange the level is the highest in the last 25 years, although the ratio of yield to cost is below the figure that existed just prior to the stock market crash of October 1929. The 1929 stock boom was financed by bank loans. The present boom is financed by our’ own national policy of e£sy money. Referring to that policy, the Wall Street Journal recently said: “The suspicion is that someone has been made timid by a bite from the political bug. Politics requires ‘prosperity’. Prosperity requires ‘easy money.’ So the requirements of good management must yield a bit so as not to interfere with enough easy money to make prosperous politics.” The number of, shares of stock borrowed by short sellers on the New York exchange is at an alltime high, indicating that a substantial group does not believe present stock prices rest upon a sound financial basis. Regardless of the effect it may have upon the November 2nd election, it is ther duty of the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve Board carefully to appraise this situation and, if necessary, exercise their power to control credit to the end that we do not have another “Black Friday” on the exchange that would have world-wide repercussions. EVEY L. LEAKE Evey Lorraine Leake died at the age of 75, Wednesday, September 22, in Sibley Hospital, Washington, D. C., following an illness of several weeks. Burial services were conducted by die Rev. L. H. Kelley, the Rev. Clarence Barnett and the Rev. Dewey Yale at 2 p.m. on Friday, September 24 from Fre Methodist Church, Culpeper. Interment was in the Fairview Cemetery in Culpeper. Mrs. Leake is survived by her husband, Samuel Leake; 5 daughters, and 4 sons; 2 sisters; a bro-; ther and numerous grandchildren. Among the active pallbearers were Floyd Leake, Ernest Leake, Clarence Leake, Samuel Leake, Harry Alcock and Wilbur Tur ner.

* Beer Ban—(Cont’d from pagel) strengthen its reputation. .The "Against,” represented by ably George Davis, R. E. Thompson, William Smith, Mrs. Paul Brock and numerous supporters said that they too would like to have the morals of the county elevated, but felt that this ban —would not do the job. The drink-.. ers would just do their business with the bootlegger, or else in neighboring counties. Furthermore the county would lose a great deal of money brought into the county by this sale. They ' argued that if a person wanted to drink, he would drink and his source mattered little. Furthermore, the dealers are required to follow certain rules and are under sound supervision. A petition with 60 names opposing sales thereon was filed with the Board of Supervisors by Mr. Davis. Following this discussion, Chairman J. P. Cook suggested that the matter be left open until next meeting of the Board. Then, following a studying of the petition and additional facts, the decision will be made. Compared with the above issue, „the rest of the Board meeting, was uneventful indeed. A form letter was read by W. C. Campbell, asking that the Board go on record in regard to the Segregation .question. Cook suggested that James W. Fletcher frame a reply. B. S. Bowie appeared before the Board with a request that the road signs on the curve near the home of Mrs. D. B. Smith, be looked into. This matter was tabled -until “next meeting when ResidentEngineer P. D. Coldiron will discuss it. v, > “ --v - Pawley—(cont’d from page X) Since they first made Rappahannock their home, the Pawleys have entered into numerous community projects, lending their efforts especially to the Amissville Volunteer Fire Department and other , activities.

Around the same time, there was another accident on the long s^curve 2 3/10 miles east of Sperryville when a 1953 Pontiac plowed into a 1954 Chevrolet that had stopped by a flare, stationed by Officer Buntin. A little earlier, between 9:30 and 10 that night, a 1954 Convertible skidded on the curve near the home of Mrs. D. B. Smith. Several other cars were said to have skidded off the road at this spot, but could move off under their own power. ___ ' Softball—(cont’d from page 1) right fi^ld, Mrs. Charles Clark, center field, Mrs. Bruce Brown, left field and Mrs, Benny Pullen short stop.

P.-T.A.—(cont’d from page 1) of driving a car, was suggested as a project worthy of investigation. A committee was appointed to look into such a class, its possibilities in this county system. H. B.

The suggestions, which included such enormous ideas as a sprinkler system for the school, which would ruiTinto around $5,000 and more practicable ideas as putting new railings on the fire escapes and new types of lodes on* the doors, showed clearly the questionable fire safety of the school’s present condition. Other minor matters were * brought before the association, including a report that two books: “The Giant” and “The President’s Lady,” requested by the students, had been obtained. 4-H Elects Officers At the September meeting of the Sperryville 4-H Club # 1, die following officers were elected;_ Presideht, Frank Jarvis; Secretary Lee Thornton III; Devotional leader, Sue Many; Song leader,.
