This donation was in memory of her husband, whose mother, Mrs. Peyt >n Anderson (Mrs. Louemma F.) was a devoted member of this church for many years, oooo We were glad to see that Senator Curry Carter had the statesman-like qualities to speak out in opposition' to Governor Stanley’s request for a bill to set up a ditator for the mental institutions of Virginia. This new office will give one man complete dictatorial powers ov4r the business management of 411 mental institutions; appointed by the governor; salary fixed by this governor, and answerable only jto the governor—quite some plun^ for a good friend. Is there such! a superman in our State that) he can supervise all the business of so many different hospitals—|we heartily agree with Senator c4rter, who said it was a “radical step”. Red Ci088 Needs You “Just w) at does the Red Cross do for us n Rappahannock?" It's natural th it this is one of the most oft-r< peated queries asked . the local workers during this MembSrshi] > Drive. That y< u, through the Red Cross, are it every flood, fire and other disaster in the world to help the victims! that you are with the soldiers overseas, and with the men in the! hospitals—all this yon know. But jwhat does it do within the countyi , ' ,f •# To answer this question, we flipped thrjuigh the files of last year's worii, the records of what is done with your money, and have picked out! not all, but is sample of jthe Red Cross work here: I One hundred dollar* in green* riea was given to * family following a |husband’s ’ operation; $25.00 to a couple, wheu the husband was out of work due to a serious accident—these two eases had to be turned down by the lo• cal welfare jdue to lack of funds; $100 to a | family losing their home by firje; $65.00 in supplies to another j family destitute by lire; Blankets to a patient going to the sanitarium; blankets to the Flint Hill Rescue Squad. Paid the cost of fche Bloodmobile visit to the county. At this visit, incidentally, 61 pints of blood were donated by dounty residents. Thus far this year®, with more than half a year to gt>, residents have already received 65 pints of blood. . Itinerant families, stranded hero, were given sdppliee and money to reach their homes. On an average, about one service call is received per week from members of the Armed Forcef, to contact their families in cjjses of illness, etc.; The families ire contacted and: a return telegram sent to the serviceman. The* are some of the ways you, through the Red Crofs» helped in the dounty. If you would, like to continue this work locglly and throughout the country jejin the Bed Cross.

After scouring countless history books and encyclopedias, the answer was found, by Mrs, Davis, in a relatively small encyclopedia, World Scope Encyclopedia.

SUNDOWN HILLBILLIES TO PLAY FOR DANCE AT FLINT HILL The Flint Hill Baseball Club will sponsor a Square Dance Friday night, March 16, at the Flint Hill fireball, from 9 til 1. The Sundown Hillbillies will strum the guitars. Admission is 61.00 per persona a:• v&v.? One of the five major points of the program of the National Congress of Parent-Teacher Associations, of which the High School P. T. A. is a member, is to “attract and keep teachers who have the vision, the insight, and the skill to help children and youth utilize fully their natural talents and powers.” This particular point is of great interest to parents and citizens of this community for we have seen what capable and devoted teachers can do even with inadequate facilities. For years much of the public interest in the county has centered round the building of a new High School and yet, a new building without good teachers to staff it would not go far towards solving Rappahannock’s educational problem. The School Board and =tnc Superintendent of Schools are nowfaced with the necessity of getting new teachers for the 1956-57 session to replace those who will be leaving the County. Here is an area in which the R. C. H. S. P. T. A, can be of real help if it’s members have an understanding of what part they can play in solving the teacher shortage. On Tuesday, March 13, at 8:00 P. M. members of the School Board wll meet with the P. T. A. at the High School to discuss this subject. It is hoped that all members of the P. T. A. and any other interested persons, will be on hand. - l Reading Course Exam For Teachers Saturday, April 14 Sup?. Q. D. Gasque announces that the State Board of Education has fixed Saturday, April 14, 1956, as the date on which the Teachers Reading Course Examination for the renewal of certificates shall be offered. This examination will'be held in the Law Library of the Watren County Court House, Front Royal, beginning at 9:00 A. M. for persons living in Warren and Rappahannock Counties. This is the only examination to be given this year in this division. The Teachers Reading -Course Examination for both high school and elementary school teachers will be based on the following books: Teacher-Parent Interviews, The Founding Fathers, and Teaching Adolescents. Any person expecting to take this examination should notify the School Board office not later than, Saturday, March 31, so that an examination may be requested from the State Department of Education^I , ■ i New Service Station Opens ini Washington Washington Service Station and Garage, located at the intersection of Main and Middle Streets in the Thornton bqilding Washington, opens for business today, Thursday with Carroll Racer, Jr. as manager.

Council Requests Caution Light For't Cor. Mam and Porter Meeting Tuesday night for their regular March meeting, the Wash- . ington Towir Council made a motion to request a caution light for the corners of Main and Porter Streets, and discussed other matters of business. Mrs. John Frizzell, Jr. was asked to contact Mr. Coldiron, » asking if a caution light could be put up here. The location of the post office will bring added traffic to this area, and more children . will be crossing here enroute to the post office. April 20 was set as the annual Clean-Up Day, when dust and dirt will fly before snthusiastic homemakers. Property owners are * also encouraged to beautify yards. Correspondence had been received from L. H. Dudley, now in , Florida, that he will give the garage on his property, to the town. Mrs. A. M. Verner and MrsMorgan Johnston, who represented the Council at the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce dinner, re- ‘ ported on the dinner, praising the delicious food, enthusiastic speakers and the “Gay N inties” entertainment. ‘ . A feqliest to put up a street light on Blue Ridge Avenue near - the home of Mr. and Mrs. G J. . Stuart, had to be turned down. In a previous, meeting when other requests had been made for additional street ights, it was agreed by the' council not to install, any more- . lights, unless absolutely necessary, . as there was not enough money allotted for this purpose to answer all requests. It was agreed to .dean the Keep Virginia Clean and Virginia Green signs. A discussion on painting the. town signs was shelved until next^ meeting, when the matter will be looked into throughly. The playground equipment wilt be erected on the Geest property next to the newly constructed post office if this arrangement meets the agreement of Mr. Geest.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS, published Thursday morning At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia DIAL: WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE.........Publisher Entorcd as second-class mail at the post office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (inadvance)________$2.00 a year Let*8 Not Forget Rights Of Others Thi* country wu founded on the basis of respect for individual rights. The press has always played an important part in maintaining these rights. Yet there are times, especially when our nation is threatened by a strong outside force, when some of these rights seem to be forgotten, or at least pushed aside “for security reasons." Fortunately, there are enough watchdogs to prevent this type of thing, from going too far. r Herbert Brucker, editor of the ■ Hartford, Conn., Courant, brought this subject up at the recent press institute of the Ohio State university school of journalism. Mr. 5 Brucker said confusion . about Communism has caused the principle of freedom to be violated, in many cases, in this country. He urged his audience to remember that some .Communists may also support good ideas, and ' that, if they do, this doesn’t brand the idea bad, per#se. ' ihe distinction between an idea on its, own, and Communist support of it, is something all of us. ought to get through our heads,” Ur. B rucker stressed. "We must make our decisions on the merits of each issue itself, as judged independently, regardless of who may be for it or who may be against it.” We think those are words every American should remember. We all have a responsibility to keep tht« basic thought in mind, and to point to violation of the principle where we see it. And the issue doesn't have to be Communism. It may be any suppression of an individual’s rights. Sometimes the victim is in high government Circles. Sometimes he is a relatively unnoticed person in a small town who, for some reason or another has won the disfavor of self appointed profesaional patriots. Whoever he is, wherever he is, he has certain basic constitutional rights. And those who have the means to make themselves heard to the public must do so in the interest of everyone’s constitutional YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS By Rep. Burr P. Harrison A majority of 7th Congressional District voters replying to my recent questionaire favored liberalization pf the social security system : “Do you favor extending social security, of an equivalent plan, to professional groups notnow covered?” Of those answering, 52 per cent said "Yes”; 30 per cent said “No” and 18 were undecided. “Do you favor making women eligible for old-age insurance benefits under social security at 62, instead of 65, and disabled persons at 50, with an increase of one-half, per cent in your social security tax?” Of those replying, 63 per cent said “Yes”; 25 per cent said “No” and 12 per cent were undecided. These questions represent changes in the law which passed the House last year and now are pending in the Senate. ' I was particularly interested m the hundreds of voters who added comments to the questionaire indicating they favored even greater improvement^ in the benefits than contained in the pending bill. If the changes now before the Senate become law, each wageearner covered by social security will have to pay an additional halfcent in social security tax out of every dollar he earns, and each employer will have to put up a matching half-cent for every payroll dollar. The self-employed person covered by social security will have to pay another % of a cent out of every dollar of earned income. The cost will be $600,000,000 in the first year. It will pass $1, 000,000,000 in the fourth year, and it will soar past $2,000,000, - 000 a year in about 20 years. In this connection, it is important to remember that the social security tax is scheduled to increase rights. Because if they don’t we may not have them any more. A LARGE ASSORTMENT OF f STERLING SILVER ' BROOCHES, BRACELETS, EARRINGS / , • \ ' $1.25 to $7.50 — Appropriate for Easter Gifts and for year ’round adornment . . . for “They Know No Season” •; • • C. ROY JONES JEWELER Davis Street CULPEPER, VA. steadily in the next two decades just to maintain the existing level of benefits. By 20 years from now, four cents will paid into the fund for every dollar of wages. If it were decided to pay benefits to all totally and permanently disabled persons, without regard to age, an estimated additional two cents or more would have to be paid for each payroll dollar. It would require approximately one cent additional in tax immediately for each year we reduced below 65 the basic benefit age. The cost would reach $10,000,000,000 a year to make it 60. We should have to increase the social security tax, too, if we deeded to remove the present limitation on outside income, because the additional benefits which would be payable immediately would run to hundreds cf millions of dollars a year “Why should the man who had reached 60 or so before being brought under social security, and who only had to pay social security taxes a few years, receive just about as much in benefits as the man who has been paying into social security since the system started?” Social security is set up as an insurance system. In all types of insurance, those who pay in more than they get out help to provide the money for those who get out more than they put in. If we have no fire, we lose on our fire insurance. If fire strikes, those carrying insurance who have no fires pay for our loss. One person may pay a single life-insurance premium and die the next day. Another may pay thousands of dollars in premiums over a period of 50 years or more. In social security, a young man may have to pay into the fund throughout a long working'career. If this man dies a few years after reaching 65, his realization on his investment will be less than that of the man who was brought under social security when he was 63, had to pay into the fund for only two years, and then drew regular benefits until he died at 95. K)n the other hand, if the young man died at an early age, his survivors could expect to receive over a period of years, many thousands of dollars more than the breadwinner had contributed to the fund. As with any other-form of insurance, we can have, through social security, as much protection and as high a level of benefits as we are willing to buy.
