RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 DUSTIN & REYER, Editor and Manager BASIL C. BURKE, JR. 4 WILLIAM F. EARLS, Owners and Publisher* Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington,' Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance).. $2.00 PER YEAR X YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS By Rep. Burr P. Harrison The revised farm legislation which passed the House last week did not carry the high rigid price supports on basic crops which were the principal reason for President Eisenhower’s veto of the earlier bill. Although a number of the serious objections to the first farm bill were removed, and several provisions of potential benefit to Virginia farmers were added, the bipartisan Virgnia support which the measure received on the House roll call should not be interpreted as necessarily enthusiastic support. It was experimental legislation, written in the face of a continuing decline in the- relative economic position of the farmer in our private enterprise system. It remains to be seen, for example, whether the soil bank, urged most earnestly by President Eisenhower and having .the support of all major farm or* ganizations, will prove of real value '*• Modifications written into the soil bank program could help farmers in this section, including livestock and dairy people. Other pro' visions of the bill, authorizng in? creased purchases of farm surpluses for donation at home and abroad, and for the school lunch, program, could Assist our fruit and poultry farmers. The key will be the administration given the various parts of the bill by officials of • the Department of Agriculture —provided it becomes law. In this connection, it is well to consider the role of the agricultural pressure* group. In recent yea,rs there have been many headlines about a fight between proponents of rigid and flexible price supports. That it has not been prmarily a partisan argument can be seen when we recollect that flexible supports first were advocated strongly ftomemie* MotU&i on Jbcuf and the GIRL GRADUATE STORE NAME presents TARA.

Anderson, were included in the 1948 Democratic platform, and have been , defended by President Eisenhower’s Secretary Benson. More often than not, the battle lines have been drawn along geographical rather than party contours. The puzzling thing about this preoccupation with price supports on the basic crops is that less than one out of every four dollars of farm income in the United States comes from the five basics involved in current legislation—wheat, cotton, corn, rice and peanuts. (Tobacco, not up for major changes in this year’s legislation, is supported on a plan more favorabe to taxpayers generally than those of other basics, but there is a question as to whether the effect these supports have had on some of the markets of our tobacco growers may be a boomerang factor. Receipts from the fvc basic crops involved in this year’s fight have represented, in recent years, more than 40 per cent of cash farm income in only 10 states. Twenty-nine states, including Vir gima, receive more than nan tneir farm income from commodites receiving no direct supports. A slightly different set of 29 states—also including Virginia —receive 50 per cent or more of farm income from meaf animals, dairy product* and poultry products. These farmers have to buy price-supported feeds. The farmer from a commercial cotton, corn or wheat state need not be condemned for fighting as hard as he can for high rigid supports, if he thinks they will benefit him, but lack of organization has hurt farmers who do not depend on the “basics”. I have noticed, for example, that our Virginia fruit and poultry farmers are inf touch with their representatives in Congress, but seem only loosely-tied to other fruit and poultry farmers across the nation Poultry men, citrus growers, other fruit farmers, livestock men, vegetable growers, have m^ny organizations' in various parts pf the country, but they are heard under the Capitol dome as a concert of murmurs, in contrast to the strong and self -confident voices of the cicovCX Spreaders make fawning easy PfwtUj* ilnwg IwMimI (fab buggy... apply Scam On a tmtt-r me on toil Buildxb and seed, as well as jonr timet TUBF BUILDER9—complete lawn food, half as macn does twice job of onfinatr fertilizes.

When wheat is up for discussion in Congress, Congressmen hear the voice of wheat loud and dear, the same with com or cotton. The fanners who pdoduce three out of every four dollars worth of the nations farm commodies find that their welfare is examined only after the better-organised minority has had most careful attention. This is true not only in Congress, but also at the Department of •Agriculture, where the real effects of legislation are shaped by administrative discretion. While I do not believe the general welfare of the entire nation usually is advanced by pressure groups composed of a minority of the citizenry, the power which rests with a relatively small proportion of the farmers engaged in producing the basic price-supported crops indicates to me the necessity of some co-ordination, on farm legislation, among the Congressmen representing agricultural districts outside the regions devoted primarily to the basics. I have some doubts, though, that this could be accomplished, on an effective basis until such time as fruit, vegetable, poultry, livestock and diversified farmers who, together, account for three-fourths of our agricultural production, perfect their own organizations on a nation-wide basis.

Burn after 4 o’clock in the afternoon when (he humidity and the wind decreases.

RAPP-CUATS By: W. H. Lyna County Eddie Sutphin, son ofj Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Sutphin of Flint Hill, had the Champion!Angus at the Baby Beef Show and! Sale held at Front Royal Livestocjc Market last Thursday. This sho# was organized by George Allisim, County Agent from Page. Eddie was the only Rappahannock boy leaking an exhibit and is now the proud owner of a handsome silver Jbowl presented as an award by the Virginia Aberdeen Ahgus Associiton. Eddie’s calf fetched 25 centji a pound while the grand champion of the show, Hereford fed by Davy Mims of Luray brought 51 cents and was purchased by Restaurant Of Front 1 also purchased Eddie’s 4-H boys from the ticipated in the district _I ties) contest at SpottsWood last Friday. Jack Sisk, son of Mr, and Mrs. Milton Sisk wound up in third pace. Reports are jthat Jack did the neatest shearing jol> in the contest but got beaten oujt on time. Glen and Randall Updike placed 5thand 6th. Boys from Rockingham and Page Counties placed 1st and 2nd. tile Boyd ral which f. junty par20 coun-t- -t attending the shearing school at Luray on May 2nd were: Glen, Randall, Francis and Lyle Updike; Ivory Atkins, Rodney Regan, David Lyne, Jack Sisk, and Dudley Grigsby. This was the “first time” for several of the Rappahannock boys and men to shear a sheep which naturally was a bit awkward in fact a man project leader from Page County was so facinated he had to try his hand. His remark upon finishing his sheep, “You know there is a lot more to that job than meets the eye.” Knowing the positions to hold the sheep while shearing is the trick that makes the job easy. Assistant Agent, Rapley Owings took the Rappahannock and Madison Judging Teams to the University of Maryland last Saturday on a livestock judging trip. Individuals judged and gave reasons for their placings in a class of Angus heifers, Yorkshire market hogs, Hampshire Gilts, Southdown Fat Lambs and Hampshire breeding ewes. The group left at 6 A. M. and returned 11. P. M. They judged livestock class-, es and heard the official placings until 3 P. M. and then took off for some fun at Glen Echo. Those from Rappahannock making the trip were: Eddie Sutphin, "Skinner”and Randolph Updike, Jimmy Yates, and “Biscuit” Sisk; those from Madison included Pete Lohr, Bobby Jenkins, James Henshaw SOCIAL SECURITY, IT APPLYS TO SUMMER EMPLOYMENT There are two points concerning social security that should be remembered by those students who take jobs during vacation periods, according to Robert E. Parsons, Assistant Manager of the Alexandria Social Security Office. One point concerns children under age 18 who are receiving social security benefits based on a deceased or aged parent’ssocial security account. When such a person works either part-time or full-time and expects to earn more than $1200 in a year, a report should be made immediately to the Sodal Security Administration. This is necessary since any bneficiary under age 72 is not entitled to bfe benefit for every month in the year if his total earnings in the year exceed $1200. He is entitled to benefits for certain months if his total earnings do not exceed $2080 in a year. . The other point to remember, as explained by Mr. Parsons,' it and 4-H leader, Mr. Jeff Lohr. Wool Bags and twine are now available at the County Agent’s office. The United Woll Growers Association says they can no longer accept clear tied wool in any kind of bags other than standard word bags. Feed bags may be used only for tags, black or gray fleeces.

Whenever anyone engages in work that is covered by social security he should have a social security card to present to his employer. Today, almost all work is covered^ under the social security law. However, one exception is family employment. The social security law does not cover the work of a child under the age 21 for his parent, of a parent for a child, of a wife for her husband, or of a husband for his wife.

NO MINIMUM WAGE FOR FARM WORKERS Neither the $1.00 an hour minimum wage nor the overtime provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (commonly known as the Wage and Hour Law) apply to employees who are working on farms. Wm. Eaves, Regional Director of the U. S. Department of Labor’s Wage and1 Hour and Public Contracts Divisions, issued that Statement to clear up any possible misunderstanding on the matter. He said there was some evidence that both farmers and farm workers may be confused on the matter. To such possibly pusxled employers and workers, Eaves gave a simple answer: “The Wage Hour Law does not apply to the farm workers. Farmers are not required to pay the $1.00 minimum wage T HELP PREVENT FOREST FIRES! ■et by the Federal law.” But, be warned, this foil exemption from the pay provision of the law does not lessen the child labor provisions applying to young farm workers. The laws makes it unlawful foi children under 16 to work on a farm at any time during the school hours of the district where the child is currently living. If the local school is in session and the child is under 16, he cannot legally. i The only exception to this is that a parent may employ his child on his farm. Such child may not work for neighbors or other farmers during school hours. Farmers can protect themselves from unintentional violation of child Ubor provisions by requiring an age certificate before hiring a young person. Such certificates may be obtained from local county superintendents of schools.
