RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS , PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia . DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE....|_ PuUhket Entered a* second-class mail aiatter at the poet office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: :m advance) .—.. .. ... J- S2.00 a year Letter To The Editor ' In 1942 all the people along the Rappahannock River and its tributaries were earnestly in desire of flood control. Towns and much farm lands were flooded-the farmer taking the brunt of the loss. They asked the government for help; then come the Army Engineers with a proposal to build Salem Church Dam, about 5 miles west < of Fredericksburg, which • would be 90 per cent power, 8 per cent flood control, and 2 per cent other benefits. This would benefit only a small part of Fredericksburg from flood of the Rappahannock River. It : would not protect from flash floods doe to cloud bursts. It wouldn’t protect the farmer above Fredericksburg, but. instead, would flood much of his land permanently. We want flood protection as well as do the people of Fredericksburg. In 1942 when towns and farms upstream were being flooded, Fredericksburg had a cloud burst, flooding parts of town above the elevation of the flood crest of the river. This yras also blamed on the flooding of the river. There have been only 3 damaging floods in the history of Fredericksburg on record; fldodingonly * a fraction of the town. r I don’t think the Army Engineers know much about flood control, in the right way. In my opinion, their methods are cockeyed. I wish you would see the March issue of “Soil Conservation,”, an • official publication of the U. • S. ^ Ucpt. of Agriculture, which has an article titled, “The Hydrologist Looks Upstream." The *ystem described will give you flood coriv trol, an even flow of water, and . would control the flood crest of . „ the river. It is questionable as to wnctncr the government will pay full value for your property. They won’t pay your moving expenses or compensate for the damage done in breaking up your community. 1 suggest you take a look at the Buggs Island Dam. Clarksville, I understand, had to go through a number of lawsuits to obtain use of water from'the reservoir for their city water supply. I have been told that, last summer if was several hundred feet from the shoreline to the water. There are stumps in the reservoir which make boating risky in certain areas. , '.. n On January^, this year, Representative Howard Smith introduced a bill in the House to remove the 220 ft. limitation on the Salem Church Dam. The estimated cost of this dam ranges from 46 to 80 million dollars! Taxpayers’ money - needed more for other purposes. . It is estimated that the peak production of this power plant will be 57,000 kilowatts, and occasionally will drop to only 11,000 k.w. Then I guc»s they would have to call on dear old Virginia Electric and Power Co. to supplement them with steam electricity. An Army Engineer stated at Lignum, Va., March 10, that if a bomb were dropped on the dam, all those not killed by the explosion would be drowned 1This dam will permanently ' destroy approximately 35,000 acres of land, much of which is classified as excellent by the Soil Conservation Service. Thousands' of acres of valuable timber land are also included. For 50 years certain power companies have owned about 18,000 acres of land for power development in this area. They say it is much cheaper to produce power with coal because of the fluctuating flow of the river. A leading farm magazine has predicted that in from 5 to 10 years we won’t have a surplus of farm produce and forest products. Your farm and timber land will pay annual dividends if you keep it; but if you sell it to he flooded* that is the last of it. “You can shear a sheep every year, but you can skin him only once.’’ I urge those of you opposed to this dam to write Representative Howard W. Smith, Senators Harry F. Byrd, and A. Willis Robertson, and ' any other Congressman you think might help. Also you may write the “Committee on Public Works),” of the House and Senate, and Representative Clarence Cannon, Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee. I declare the whole project a waste of public money. Sincerely, Farrell Thomas Lignum, Culpeper County, Va. SPEECH of { HON. BURR P. HARRISON of Virginia In The House of Representative* Tuesday, February 8, 1955 Mr, Harrison of Virginia. Mr. Chairman, I offer an amendment. " The Clerk read as follows: Amendment offered by Mr. Harrison of Virginia: On page 2, following line 2, insert a new section as follows:'' “Section 6 (h) of the Universal Military Training and Service Act, as amended, is further amended by adding after the first proviso the following* ‘Provided further, That no person otherwise found, on his individual status, to be eligible for deferment because of his employment which is determined to be necessary to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or interest, as herein provided, shall be granted a deferment on account of the existence of a shortage of any agricultural cominodity, or denied a deferment on! account of a surplus of any agricultural commodity.” -j . . ,, Mr. Harrison of Virginia. Mr. Chairman, for several years now the Selective Service System has been denying deferments to agricultural workers otherwise entitled thereto when local draft, boards think that crops raised by these agricultural workers are in surplus. The purpose of my amendjnent is to put a Stop to that. Mr. Chairman, under the law industrial and agricultural workers are deferred when their employment is necessary to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or interest. That must be determined upon their individual status and the President is authorized and directed to draft regulations to carry out the intention of the Congress with respect thereto. The regulations that we have had in for£ for years provide three criteria for determining whether or not an agricultural or an industrial worker is entitled to deferment. The first is that he must be actually engaged in a necessary occupation. Second, he must,show he cannot be replaced and, third, that his removal would cause material loss of effectiveness in such activi An agricultural deferment must be measured by whether or not die worker produces for market a substantial quantity of agricultural commodities necessary for the national health, safety, or interest. The formula for determining that is in the regulations. 1 ne selective service sysicm, without regard to those regulations has proceeded to add a new requirement. It has provided that even where all three oi the situations required by the regulations 'are present and the registrant is therefore entitled to deferment, yet in spite of that fact he shall not be deferred if in the opinion of the local draft board the crop he is producing is in surplus. To show you to some extent the absurdity of such a regulation, let us apply that to a wheat crop that might be produced. A man shows to the satisfaction of the draft board 4nt he is actually engaged in producing that crop of wheat. Mr. Hoffman of Michigan. * Mr. Chairman, will the gentleman yield? - Mr. Harrison of Virginia. I yield to the gentleman from Michigan. Mr. Hoffman of Michigan. Can the gentleman tell me where the draft board got that idea that he has just expressed ? Mr. Harrison of Virginia. I have no idea on earth. They got it out of the air. The power to determine which crops are in surplus is the power to control the agricultural production of the Nation. ' If any agency of the Government should have such powdr, it should not be the military or a bureau whose sole function is to procure manpower for the military. "In his statement the other day . before the Committee on Artned Services, General Hersbey- tells how it is determined^ whether or not a crop is in surplus. Here is what he says: We get that probably from the newspapers, from the Department of Agriculture, from .the list of storages, and all that sort of thing. Now, that is a fact. We interpret it in different ways. «■ Should the agricultural supply of the Nation be determined by what the officials of the Selective Service System read in the newspapers or learn from a list of storages? The effect of this policy can be seen frotn these figures: For the year ending June 30, 1945, in the midst of desperate war, agriculture accounted for S.7 per-cent of . all deferments, but in the year ending June 30, 1954, agriculture accounted for but six-tenths of 1 percent of deferments. (Sh AMENDMENT — p«;e 11> Letter To The Editor: I want the people of Virginia to , know my reasons for opposing as strongly as I did recently the proposed tax cuts then pending in the Senate. j The vote yesterday was on a proposal to give to only a part of the taxpayers-a credit of $20. This is about 6 cents a day, yet the aggregate would have meant a loss of $600 million to the Treasury, every dollar of which would have to be borrowed and added to the public debt. Last'year, it will be recalled, I opposed the Eisenhower tax reduction program and voted against the final passage of the 1954 tax bill. I think that to reduce taxes and borrow the money to do so is the height of fiscal folly. If continued, it is the certain road to ruin. Nobody desires tax reduction more than I, knowing full well the terrible burden of our present taxation system. The only way to redOce tax'es is to reduce spending so that' the budget will be balanced. * and we will have a surplus to justify tax reductions.

I would like to incorporate what I interpret the the gentleamendment to mean, if man has no objection. Mr. Harrison of Virginia. No. Mr. Vinson. As I have stated, there is no objection as far as I am individually concerned. I cannot accept it as a comfiiittee amendment, because the committee has never passed on it But, here is what the amendmeiYifcdoes. , Once the amendment has be-i come law," local boards will no /onger be able to talce into consideration the existence of a shortage of any agricultural commodity, or the existence of a surplus of any agricultural commodity in deciding whether or not a man should, be deferred. I In other Words, local boards will have to decide whether a man’s employment is " necessary to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or interest, but; in arriving at this determination they will be precluded from taking into consideration the existence of a surplus of an agricultural commodity, or the existence of a shortage of an agricultural commodity. All other factors Can be considered, but the supply of an agricultural commodity jriay^ not be taken into consideration either for granting deferments or denying deferments.

The directive to the boards that they should not deifer men engaged in production of surplus crops in agriculture. ; . j i Mr. Hoffman of Michigan. The gentleman means the onej in January 1945?

Mr. Chairman, trill the gentleman yield ? vMr. Short. 1 yiild to the gentleman from South Carolina. . j Mr. Rivers. General Hershey did not send out that directive. It was an arrogation by some of the boards. That is the reason for this amendment. Mr. Short. Then I certainly want to withdraw my statement. I understood the directive was jsent out by General Hershey. j Mr. Rivers. He denied it. j Mr. Short. Then I withdraw my statement and I apologize to General Hershey. Mr. Rivers. This makes it j?lain how far they can go, and it takes it on a local level. They have to adjudicate it locally and not nationally.

They are not reliable. Diabetes was first recognized about 1552 B.C. This was about the time of Moses, or 200 years before the birth of King Tut. Ever since that time, at intervals, some promoter has come up with a cure. A dependable treatment for diabetes was discovered in 1921. It will not cure the disease, but it will enable the diabetic to liye a normal life. The discovery is known as Insulin. Your doctor knows all about it. If he finds it necessary in your case, we can supply it in just the right strength. LEWIS PHARMACY Dial 8322 CULPEPER I ^ "A-SOO" i NO OTHER STOCKING LIKE IT! WE ASSURE YOU Decause.
