A gross take from the stands of $3,164 and a total of $4,331 from the sale of prize tickets is indicative of the success.

E. M. Jones, President of the Virginia State Horticultural Society, and E. Blackburn Moore of Berryville, Chairman of the Virginia State Apple Commissioin, re^ centlv announced October 5 thru October 15 as the dates of the AllVirginia effort. Moore pointed out that Virginia apple advertising and promotional efforts during the past two seasons have met with success. This year, for the first time, the advertising push will be directed by a Virginia firm (Cabel-Eanes, of Richmond). The two previous efforts were managed by the Albert M. Wearstler Agency of Youngstown, Ohio, and Greenwood. * . - "The Horticultural Society realizes,” said President Jones, “that the Virginia apple producer has a real stake in selling his product to the consumer. The Virginia Apple Harvest Time Campaign, beginning next October. 5, represents the Virginia apple industry’s effort to properly discharge its responsibilities.” '*s; “There are enough apples right here in Virginia,” said R6bert J. (Bob) Rea, Mo*unt Jackson orchardist and packer who is chairman of the Advertising Committee for the State Apple Commission, “for every one of our Virginia folks to be able to buy and to consume more than a bushel apiece. If our- people can give that kind of. support to the Virginia farmer s products, all will consider it a good year.” Two of Virginia’s bcst-lovcd varieties—Delicious and St?vjnan—will be featured during the promotion which will have the combined backing not only of the Apple Commission and the Horticultural Society, "but also the Virginia State Chamber of Commerce and the Virginia State Department of Agriculutre. ‘i “From past experience we know that the advertising and promotional efforts through newspapers, radio and television media have been successful id the highlv populated areas of Norfolk and Richmond,” Rea recalled. Jfe said that the 1953 drive found sales increasing 79% in Norfolk and 22 per cent in Richmond during the campaign, while last year’s Norfolk Harvest Time sales were up 73% in Norfolk and 23% in Richmond. Rea said that the drive would embrace several new features this year, in addition to newspaper articles spotlighting new advances Sw VA. APPLES—Pag* 7 Enrollment Figures Still Incomplete 1 On contacting Superintendent Q. D. Gasque’s office in Front Royal it was learned that enroll* ment figures for Rappahannock County have not been received and will probably not be in for “several weeks.” fAmissville is the only ■ school that has reported.) As soon as these figures are available they will be published. Shall Rappahamwck Stay In Red Cross Blood Program? Since Rappahannock County first entered the Red Cross Blood program in March, 1952,. 684 pint* r* blood have been used by county citizens, whereas the county has only contributed 364 pints in this period—we have used 320 more pints than we have given. It is understandable that Rappahannock can not contniue to be included in the blood - program if year after yeai;, she falls below her quota, and thus uses far more than she gives. This is the year of decision. If the quota of 108 is not reached- by this week end, the bloodmobile will not make her visit and the, county will be out of the program. Then every pint of blood that a resident requires in hospitals must be paid for. There will be no more free blood. N Rappahannock has. never filled A its quota. Over the 3 years that the program has been in effect locally,out of a total quota of 858, 364 pints have been given. The argument has been heard. that the Bloodmobile is coming the wrong time of the year. Well, it has- been here in March, in September and in October. .It was once planned for January but due Jto colds, was changed to another month—in none of; die times ha*' the county met the quota. Natiortal-headquarters has been most cooperative in planning die visit when it is most suitable according to county sentiment. They - have kept workers on overtime in Washington, D. C., in order that the pints-.received from Viscose workers, coming in after work, could be processed. Still we have never met the .quota. (As this article was being written, a phone call came in notifying, us of 6 more pints of blood used in Warren Memorial and an Arlington Hospital), . J r It does not hurt to give bloodno physical pain is involved. It does help to give blood. It may help you or your family. It is sure to help someone. Sign up now with your local chairman, or contacts one of the helpers. If on the 21st, you find that you can come, although you have not signed up, do not hesitate to come. All who sign up may not be taken, and your ^ pint will thru make up for one of . 'these vacancies.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Bappafcaaaock County Virgin i* DIAL WASHINGTON^*! * BRUCE & BOWIE. ...- Publmhe> Catered a* second-class mail matter at the post oCce at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in adranee) ---—- fMO a year SEN. DOUGLAS BLASTS ADMINISTRATION Senator Paul H. Douglas (D111.) yesterday berated the Eisenhower Administration for the Continuing drop in farm income and advanced four “suggestions” for checking further declines. . The Illinois economist, who has been under fire from Republicans as a “prophet of doom,” told a 90minute press conference* he is making no predictions on the economic future. But^ he admonished his GOP critics^ "Unless things improve (on the farm front), the Republican Party will be brought to a just accounting. The American people will strike a balance between Republican promises and performance. , Douglas added: “The judgments of a just God are likely to be severe.” C»ntrasts fVith Stacks The former University of Chicago professor used a series of economic 'indices to show that farm prices have been going down steadily since the GOP Administration was voted into office in Nov. 1952. He displayed a chart showing that stock market prices rose 70 per cent over the same period. He sjid the farmers are having •la tough time ... a rough time,” but refpsed to be drawn into a forecast that a drop in farm intome is necessarily a prelude to any ‘“■general economic decline. Douglas’ four “suggestions” for reversing the farm price decline were these: 0 Distribute America’s topheavy farm surpluses both to needy people in this country and to hungry populatioin* elsewhere in the world. 0 Adopt a more liberal international trade policy: “If we take in more imports we can export more farm goods.” (Specifically, Douglas criticized Mr. Eisenj bower’s increase in tariffs on watches, on bicycles.) 0 “Swap” American farm surplusage for increased supplies of basic metals from abroad. For example, trade wheat and powdered milk to Bolivia for tin and to Southeast Asia for manganese. £Try out a variation of the socalled Brannan plan, under which a direct subsidy would be paid to all fanners on the first $7000 of farm production. The subsidy would represent the ’difference be* tv^een the price fanners actually receive and a still-to-^e-determined percentage of parity. In no case would the subsidy exceed $2000 to any one fanner. Aims to Aid Small Farmers 5 Douglas said he isn’t necessarily committed to his fourth proposal, but is putting it forward for exploration. He said it is designed primarily to aid the small and average fanner. “The big farmers say they favor a competitive marker," he added. “If that be the case, let tfiem have it. Let the price fall to the competitive level. Protect the average farmer with direct subsidies.” Douglas said one reason he isn’t committing himself yet is he does not know bow much the plan will cost. He estimated it may take between $700 million and $2 billion a year to pay the subsidies, depending ;on the parity percentage fixed. After quoting fropi Eisenhower speeches made in the 1952 campaign Douglas charged that one was tantamount to ''pledging the farmers a “guaranteed” 90 per cent of parity. He .said the index has since dropped 16 per cent and accused the Republicans of “not merely failing to carry out a pledge but actual violation of a pledge.” Land Leasing Considered The New York Herald-Tribune reported meanwhile that the Agriculture Department is considering a multi-anillion-dollar plan that calls for restricting farm output by leasing land from farmers. ' The newspaper said the idea was to strengthen weak farm prices by cutting back top-heavy food production and surpluses and thus “plug a major gap in the Eisenhower Administration’s farm program." Douglas charged that the fact such a plan is being considered “shows the GOP program is not working out.” Associated Press quoted an Agriculture Department spokesman . as saying “many plans” are always under consideration “but there has been no crystal ization of thought 6n any possible changes in the present program.” The spokesman conceded the Department is under pressure from some GOP leaders to find a specific solution to farm price situation—now the principal cloud over 1956 Republican election prospects. TRAFFIC CRASHES— NOT ACCIDENTS Virginians who ride in > u t omobiles are playing a cruel joke on themselves. In Virginia today, the Overwhelming majority of motorists are capable of driving safely and are riding in mechanically safe automobiles over safe highways. Yet through Friday, 563 persons had been killed this year on highways; 12,479 more were injured in the first six months of 1953. The toll Is rising all the time. No one —driver or pedestrian— is immune, from the chance of being killed or maimed in a; traffic crash. What is the cause of this seeming paradox of more and'i more deaths and injuries at a time when motorists and the cars they drive are better than ever? Three Virginia safety experts yesterday agreed there is! something wrong with the basid spiritual attitudes of people therfiselves to allow the crashes to continue. The three are: Charles H. Lamb, State. Commissioner of Motor Vehicles; Colonel Charles W. Woodson, superintendent of State Police, and William L. Groth, director of the Richmond Department of Public safety. Lamb said traffic accidents can be cut, but aren't because people simply don’t want to drive better. “The only way the great number of traffic deaths and accidents can be reduced is not to pass strict er laws or attempt stricter enforcement of laws, but to change the basic feeling of people themselves ' toward, driving” Lamb said. “Of course we need proper (laws, amended from time to time to keep them up to date or to cover new needs” he added, “the same applies to enforcement." But laws and enforcement alone are not the answers. This is proved by court Records he said. Every time a community’s law enforcement bodies start a campaign to get all drunk and reckless drivers off the streets, the campaign stalls, he added. The reason, said Lamb, is that jurors won’t send traffic violators to jail, except in rare cases. “The logic of this is that jurors being drivers themselves, hesitate to inflict severe penalities on traffic-law offenders because they think of themselves, “There but for the grace of God, go I "Lamb explained. , Groth said Virginians though GOOD USED 8 N TRACTOR r International, Allis-Chalmers and New Holland '• : HAY BALERS THRESHING MACHINE—in good running condition All Priced Right Frost-Wayland Tractor Company Oa TlwByPMs WARRENTON, VA. they arbor criminals who kill with a gun— are not willing to accept the fact there’s also a criminal driver, who can kill ia dead with an automobile as a murderer can With a revolver. Persons who are sentenced for speeding or drunk driving don’t lace the soeial stigma that another person with -an identical sentence, faces for a conviction of stealing a watch, Grdth added. If it were a fact that the vast majority of traffic accidents actually were accidents there might be an excuse for the public’# don’t care attitude. But Lamb and Woodson said few of the accidents ojn the streets and highways are unavoidable. In fact, Woodson said h#'s ordered the State police to stop using the word accident and to substitute the word crash. The great majority of crashes are traced to human failings, Groth and Lamb said—most o f which are due to a callous disregard for the rights and safety of other users of the streets and highways. “Yet other drivers are not, as many motorists seem to think actually trespassing on the motorists' road,’’ Lamb said. Most think an accident coul d never happen to them, Lamb said. “And deep down in their hearts they don't care what happens to the other person,” he added —Richmond Times-Dispntch MARRIAGE LICENSES John Ross Pendleton, (orderly) son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel C.

One of them is “vibriosis” The VPI scientists are currently trying to devise a routine, reliable disgnostic-method, important from the standpoint of spotting the disease in its early stages and {Preventing its spread. Diagnosis now is difficult even in the laboratory, and quite impractical down on the farm. Abortions and sterility of cattle are symptoms of this disease. The dairyman is old bugaboo, mastitis, is the subject of another project underway. Mastitis is a label applied loosely to any inflammation of the udder, and various bacteria are at fault. Some of the problems have a sort of humor—some of it grim. But even to the unlikeliest questions there is usually a scientific answer. Take the correspondent who wanted to know how many bones in a horse. He got the answer (205). But now the researchers wonder why he wanted to know.

From Roberta Jordon et al Roberta Hijtherson* and Helen Russell; 1 V4 'acres in Wakefield District; deed. to JHealth Dept, Release On Roundworm Roundworm infection is secured by direct or indirect transmission of the embryonated eggs from soil or other contaminated material to the mouth. Salads and other foods eaten raw are vehicles. Infection with these worms may occur in adults as well as in children. Under the right conditions of temperature, moisture and oxygen the embryos develop inthe eggs in about three weeks. If these eggs are swallowed the embryos pass -from the shells into the intestinal tract as larvae. These ggin entrance into the blood stream, are carried to the lungs where they break through into the air spaces and are coughed into thethroat and are re-swallowed. Within two months after they have gained their second entrance into the intestines the larvae have become adult worms. Each adult female produces about 20,000 eggs a day. ' : !.-ti I . By Mnitary dispoMi of human wastes, thfereby preventing contamination of the soil, and by careful personal hygiene roundworm infection may be prevented. Teach children to wash their hands carefully before handling food juid after going to the bathroom and also teach them not to put things, fingers especially into their month. Missing Cornerstone Hov* can you lose a cornerstone which may weigh several tons? This is the question Federal thorities are pondering in wake of a hunt for New York City authe the Hall’s cornerstone. Missing are cornerstones of the White House, United States Treasury and Washington Monument. Apparently they are obscured by additional building and a dearth of records. The Washington Monument was dedicated on July 4, 1848, amid a throng of 18,000 spectators, including Mrs. Alexander Hamilton, Mrs.• Dolley Madison and George Washington Parke Curtis, Martha Washington’s grandson; The trowel was the one wielded by George, Washington at the laying of the Chpitol cornerstone in 1793. *In the monument’s cornerstone went over 70 momentoes, including Washington’s portrait and ;ooat of arms; a city map; census; housing and tax statistics; all U.S. coins from the gold eagle $10 piece to the half dime; and newspapers (New York Daily Sun, Mobile Register and Journal, Baltimore Daily Sun and the Western Citisen of Paris, Kentucky). | But today no one knows where the cornerstone may be found, although it is presumed to be somewhere in the northeast corner, probably hidden by subsequent foundation enlargement. Tradition has it that President Andrew Jackson handed the mason a lock of hair from his granddaughter’s head along with one of hip messages to Congress, to be placed in the cornerstone of the. Treasury. But the stone cannot b<| found in the granite building erected in stages after 1836. Before the White House renora tion in the early 1950’s, mine dew tec to re were used in an attempt to find a metal plaque indicating , the cornerstone location. But, if located, the cornerstone remained untouched and it is not known if \ somewhere in the White House structure there lies a repository of mementoes of the capitot's early life.

TO THE VOTERS «Various people have suggested that I reply to an unsigned form letter, recently circulated in the county, telling people how they should vote. 1. I know of no voter who took an oath or signed a pledge before voting in the Primary. Therefore no one need vote according to the orders or dictates of a political boss. ; • 2. The ballot is a secret ballot. No one can tell how anyone votes. No one has a right to know. Each voter marks the ballot as he chooses, then folds and places the baHot in the box himself. 8. Loyalty oaths were rejected by the South at the '52 Democratic Convention- No Southern leader of any stature believes in a loyalty oath—even for the convention delegates. Intelligent men will not promise to help elect a candidate before they know who t&at candidate is. Yet the demand for blind obedience is now made to the people of this county. ►' 4. There are no political issues in this local campaign —but principles are' important. Free elections are the very foundation of our government. Democracy must have a free choice. We have no stomach for dictators who t$ll us how to vote. ** 5. In a free country every citizen can be his own man's man and speak the truth as he sees it. We can vote to suit ourselves. I would suggest that every voter put the interests of the coUnty above purely personal or selfish considerations, and thus vote for the candidate he hoiiestly and fairly believes to .be the better qualified. In that way the interests of all the people will be best served. ALFRED M.

Burr Harrison Discusses Draft Law Rep. Burr P. Harrison has asked Major General Lewis B. Hershey,. national selective service director,, what he has done, or intends to do, about Insuring compliance with the Harrison Amendment to the draft law. Which provides that local draft boards are to consider whether there is a national surplus of an agricultural commodity when passing on farm deferment applications. The amendment, sponsored by. the Seventh District Representative the House and cleared by the Senate with, the active support of Senator Harry F. Byrd, ranking member of the Committee on Armed Services, was a part of .the draft extension legislation signed into law by President Eisenhower on June St). Mr.! Harrison said he was surprised by a news article quoting a “spokesman" for General Hen* shey’s office to the effect that there had been no new directive on agricultural deferments. Mr, Harrison implied that it was about time something was done to make certain local draft boards a observed the policy set forth in the Harrison Amendment as approved by Congress and Mr. Eisenhower. His letter to General Hershey follows: In a news article in the Richmond News Leader of September 8, 1955 dealing primarily with the position of Senator A, Willis Robertson of Virginia on agricultural deferments and release of inductees after one years of service, I read with considerable surprise the following passage r "A.UV. “Major-General Lewis B. Hershey, director of selective service, was not in Washington today, but a Selective Service System spokesman said ‘there have been no instructions to local boards which tie their hands in dealing with agricultural deferments,’ the Associated Press reported. “The spokesman said there hhs been no special directive on deferment of farm youths other than the establishment of the criteria that such youths must be “necessary to the farm, and can’t be replaced.’ ’’ In the news article, Senator Robertson was quoted, to part, as stating: “The Congress did not pass any law prohibiting deferment from the draft because of urgent need i a firm,” This certainly is the case, the enator Robertson also could have a ted that to the contrary, the (ingress, to the session concluded st month, took affirmative rtion to override the edicts df irtain selective service officials at draft boards should not look ivorably on deferment applicaona when there was a national irplus of the agricultural eomodity involved. . _ ■ I refer to Sec. 101 (d) of Pubt Law 118 of the 84th Congress, hich amends the Universal MOiiry Training and Berries Act to rovide: ■ 'j | /■' “ ;; FRANK B.

Byrd of Virginia, ranking j member of the Committee on Armed Services, i - Inasmuch as Public Law 118 of the 64th Congress was approved by the President on June 30, .* 1035, I am at a loss to understand the statement ojf the “spokesman” of your office if he has been Quoted correctly to the effect that, “there has been no special directive on . deferment of farm youths.” I had assumed that your office would have acted by now to bring to the attention of all officials of the Selective Service System, including the members of all local boards the directive of the Congress as set forth in Sec. 101 (d) of Public Law 116. I should appreciate your letting me know if your spokesman was quoted incorrectly, and proper steps already have been taken to * bring deferment policy into line with the expression of the Congress in this enactment
