' N Supervisors Have Busy Time With Proposed Budget Via changing the 10 cent current levy from a school construction levy to a general fund levy and cutting a proposed $2,632'school housing fund, the Board of Super- , visors squeezed the Tentative Bu<Jget into the alloted bounds with-, out proposing a change of the $325 levy. Wednesday's meeting of the supervisors was devoted to the proposed budget, and the considera- ) tion of the above cuts along with, a cut in the Welfare Department administrative expenses. The Supervisors will meet on April 4 ft 10:00 a.m. in the orart house to hear citizens for or> against the proposed budget (as corrected - in Wednesday’s meeting.)' . ' V ' Miss Ruth Stevens presented the tenative budget, explaining the reasons for increases and deductions in the different department figures. C. J. Miller, citizen on the Budget committee, stated that the originally proposed budget could not be carried thru unless a levy of 20 cents be adopted. Board. Chairman, W. C. Campbell, believing the county unable to beat the additional levy, hid reviewed the proposed budget looking for . possible deductions. He listed the ones given above. A. H. Buckner made a motion that the 10 cent levy for school construction be eliminated. Henry Wood seconded the motion and it was passed unamiously. The $7,500 in the fund will, of course, be left in the fund. Answering supervisor Eddie Estes, Supt. Q. D. Gasque, explained that this money could not be transfer-K ed to the General fund. The $2,133.08 school housing fund which was cut out was for the purpose of repair and replacement of equipment etc. Where asked if he thought the school could do without this fund, Supt. Gasque replied, “Well, I can cut off one toe and still walk, but not as comfortably.’- (When talking with Supt. .Gasque following the meeting, this reporter learned that he fully expected that in another year when thjgrif is not the $5000 reassessment fee, the above fund will be adopted.) ' Supervisor Estes asked if the question of the H. D. agent had been considered expressing sentiments that a savings could be made here. The board was reminded of the opposition that this suggestion had received at an earlier date. Supervisor Buckner stated - that 75-80% of the people in his district were opposed to it; Supervisor Wood believed,that 99% of his district would be against it. Supervisors Foster and Campbell stated that their districts, Wakefield and Hampton respectively, wanted the clubs to continue, and were for retaining the agent. The proposed budget waS ununiously passed as corrected, calling for no additional levy. It will >e published and a meeting held before it is passed finally. Resident Engineer P. D. Coldiron asked the board that the public hearing on road problems be set for the April meeting. This was iccepted. The newly appointed Civil Defense Coordinator H. S.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia DIAL: WASHINGTON 2851 " BRUCE S. BOWIE.... ..Publish*, Entered as second-class mail at the post office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (inadvance) ____$2.00 a year Fill Up The Barrel - Again... The nation is probably aware of the fact that the national Red Cross organization has had the -the biggest job in its 75-year his- < tory in consequence of major floods in widely separated areas, and has done its best job in meeting the emergency. t What the country also should know, and do something about is that the Red Cross has come peri< lously close to exhausting its resources in doing the job. Since the only resources of the .Red Cross are funds put up by people appreciative of its work, the present matter boils down to this: The American people must dig deeper in their pockets if the Red Cross is to stay on the job. It does not stretch the imagination Very far to realize what ' would happen if another national emergency should come along, with the Red Cross off the job. Suppose, for instance, the' recent Eastern floods had occurred without - the Red Cross on hand ' to spend $18,000,000 for the salvage of human lives; or that the more recent northern California floods had been unrelieved by the available $8,000,000 of Red Cross money. The pyramiding of human tragedy in either of those events would have been a frightening thing to contemplate. So now let us suppose something else: The Red Cross is now down to the bottom off its barrel in consequence of those expenditures. Another national emergency on the same scale, arriving before adequate replenishment of the , Red Cross barrel, would confront America with a situation unprecedented for horror. The answer to that problem is for the American people to get the barrel filled again—and fast. Failure to do so, or even any delay about it, will sow the seeds of national disaster.

HarriPon The House of Representatives devoted two days last week to debating the Upper Colorado Reclamation Project, and I was asked to vote for an authorization involving an estmated ultimate contribution by Virginia taxpayers or $67 million or more. I could not, and did not. If Virginia , members of Congress are to expect fair and sympathetic ■ consideration of Virginia : needs, it is reasonable that they should listen to arguments by other States in behalf of their own requirements. I listened as the Upper Colobated vigorously, and the evidence rado Reclamation Project was deon both sides was complicated. The principle sponsors from Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona contended that hundreds of thousands of acres of wasteland would be brought into production with water from the huge reservoir lakes created by the dams to be built. It did not seem logical to* me to authorize the expenditure of up to $4*bilIion iot this system of dams, to create additional agricultural production, at the same time as we were being asked to authorize the spending of other billions for a soil bank to take land out of production. ' There was discussion, in the debate, of the plight of the Navajo Indians, who live on a great reservation in the Southwest. In behalf of the Upper Colorado plan, it was contended that the Navajos would be given an opportunity to to Elmer D. Hkkerson and Evelyn R. Hickerson, .07 of an acre, in Wakefield District; deed.

The license was issued March 5, 1956. become self-supporting, because the new supply of water would permit them to till land now barren., except foi“ cactus and mesquite. * There is no question about the hard tme these Indians have, but I could not find justificaton for spending an estimated $200,001) each to provide new farms for 1,100 Navajo families. There is no clear showing, in fact, that it would be feasible to convert these Indians to a type of pursuit— irrigated farming—in which they had no experience. I believe the welfare of the Navajos deserves sympathetic attention, but by a more practical approach. There was great dispute as to the ultimate cost of the Upper Colo-, rado project, but it appeared to me that we were being asked to irrigate great stretches of western wasteland at a cost of up to $1,500 an acre. The whole idea is to build a series of dams in the upper reaches of the Colorado River system , to hold water for irrigation and for the production of electricity. The States primarily to be benefited insist that California and Mexico, which lie downstream are getting most of the water use from the river, and that much of the water flows on into the Pacific Ocean without having been of help to anyone. The California claim, on the other hand, is that the Upper Colorado Project would permit the upstream States to hog the water supply and pass doyvn only a trickle to California. ' We have had long dry spells in Virginia in recent years, and we have come to a greater appreciation of the importance of our water resources. It may well be that we shall have to build more water-control structures, but I cannot envision our asking Congress to approve such tremendously-costly plans, based on uncertain economics, as the Upper Colorado scheme. It was argued in the House that the abundance of electricity from the big dams which would be built would attract industry to the region. The idea of subsidizing the movement of industry to Colorado, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico did not have any appeal to me. In voting against’ the project, I was not swayeck particularly by one of the arguments in opposition, because only a geologist could appreciate it. It was one of the most unusual arguments I ever had heard advanced against a dambuilding project during a Congressional debate., A Californian insisted that one of the proposed dams in the Upper Colorado Project would be a complete waste, because it would be built on a base of chinle, a type of rock that dissolves in water. He had samples of chinle, which certainly did turn into mud when wet. Whether this -_ 1 " I , ...

MISS MILDRED B. FLETCHER, owner-nder on faraway, and Miss Neville Wood, owner-rider of My Pride, first and second place winners of the W. A. Laing Memorial race at Rappahannock Hunt Point-To-Point, Saturday, March 3, Trophy tor this race was donated by Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Laing, Jr. ' _-■ Point-To-Point • (Continued from Ptfc 1) The ladies ffave their usual daring rides in the Mt. Salem. “Redmond”, ridden by Jennifer Skelton had it all his way over his three competitors as “Nor_ drina” tired early and fell on the sixth fence and gave Terry Drury Jenldns a taste of hard ground. “Alice Rock" was a strong second, hut the third horse, “Bones" tired badly in the last half mile. Seven horses followed Melvin Poe to the post in the Mount Marshall and this race was hotly contested all the way with the trophy going to Thomas Nichols’ “Starboard", who beat Bill Rochester's “Junior Chief” by about six lengths, and the great show horse* “Curist” was third. In the “Ben Venue”, Russell" Cart rode Thomas Taylor’s “Hand Money" in all Hone after “Berfy Hill" turned a somersault and “River Bed" headed for the five foot snake fence and his rider very sensibly “bailed out” and “George" went down on the eighth fence. The Leeway, for horses which have, run in sanctioned meets during the last year, saw five horses start. Mike Smithwich rode Mrs. John Burke’s “Ricacho" to win , over Langborae Williams’ lovely gray mare and D. W. Patterson’s “Tamer”, which has won his share of point-to-points in the past. “Nardane” and Laddie Murray headed for the woods—not liking the steep downgrade, and “Philabug” tired badly. The Colonel Richards Memorial for juniors, only had two entries this year, but Jerry Binns on “Farnley Babette" and Nancy Orme on “Brownie” made a real race out of it, setting a good fast pace and jumping perfectly over every fence to have “Famleyt Babette” the eventual winner by a length. s The hound race is always a crowd pleaser, and this year was no exception. The hounds followed the drag course twice and the 1 ^ crowd “hooshed” them on all the way. Clifton Clark seems to have the monopoly on this’race every year and his hounds finished first and second again last Saturday. The casualty list was fairly high this year but the general concen-. bus seemed to be that due to a wet winter some horses were definitely out of condition for racing. The same thing occurred in the -Maryland Hunt Cup races several years ago. Following the races members of the hunt, their guests and exhibitors were entertained at “Meadow ’ Brook Hall”, the lovely home of Mrs. W. P. Slaughter, near Hunt]y. ' Tbe next point-to-point and hunter trials will be held at Blue Ridge Hunt, Berryville, Saturday, March 10, 2:00 p.m. Judges for the races were: Mr. Fletcher Harper, Orange County Hunt; Mr. Newell J. Ward, Middleburg Hunt; Mr. Alexander Mackay-Smith, Blue Ridge Hunt. Hunts represented at the races were Rapidan Hunt; Rappahannock Hunt; Orange County Hunt; Middleburg Hunt; Blue Ridge Hunt; Warrenton Hunt; Piedmont Hunt; Green Spring Valley Hunt; Marlboro Hunt Club; Old Dominion; Hazelmere Hounds; Loudoun County Hunt; Fairfax Hunt; Potomac Hunt.
