If nothing, WHY? {^‘Advertising Pays” “Wanted—Rain” Heads the Browning Tractor and Equipment Co.’s ad in the July 5th issue of the Rappahannock News. , '! According to an old saying, "They must be living Tight,” because they certainly got what they, advertised for. Rain and plenty of it, for themselves and all of their neighbors. Here’s hoping they get the other things they are advertising for “customers.” Mr. Browning is a Rappahannock County boy, bom and reared near Woodville on one of the finest farms of the county.

State To Participate In ‘Operation Alert 1956’ Air raid sirens, whistles horns, will sound in Virginia <m July 20, when the state participates in the nationwide Civ Training Exercise known as eration Alert 1950.” J, H. Wyse, State Civil Defens Coordinator, said today the exeij cise will begin at ip:00 a.m., July 20 with "enemy attacks" on 70 areas in the United ■ States and its possessions, including Norfolk, Portsmouth, Newport ,News and the section of Northern Virginia adjacent to Washington. I The aimulated enemy attackj Wyse pointed oat, is plmmied pri4 manly as a training exercise for civil defense communications, oth-i er services and staff personnel ini addition to the testing of warning ' devices. For the first time, “CON*; ELRAD” —plan for CONtrol of ELectromagnetic RADiation —will! be in operation. During “OPERATION ALERT"N all radio and television stations in the state will go off the air, un- . ; lessless they are authorised ‘to operate on frequencies of 040 ot ’ 1240. Wyse said that CONELRAD is the only safe broadcasting system yet devised to keep the public informed of important civil defense news and instructions without helping enemy bombers reach their targets. Without the CONELRAD hookup, Wyse pointed out, bombers attacking the United States could tune their direction finders to a station broadcasting in target city and “beam” in on their objective. To prevent this from happening In World War II, all radio stations j Continued on Page 8 Trustee Electoral Board Meets At High School Attend the Buffet Sapper at Flint Hill The ladies of the Flint Hill Baptist and Methodist Churches are certainly busy this week getting ready for what is expected to be the biggest church supper ever .held in Rappahannock County.

Come and bring the family. Flint Hill Splits Two, Retains Fourth Place . Although the long-swifted reins, finally came Wednesday, there was enough time between showers for the Flint Hill A.C.’e to sd- * minister s 7 - 3 defeat to the .1 slumping Rsppahsnnock Chiefs. The game was a replay of a rained-out game earlier in the season. Although Chiefs’ pitcher, Rory Qatar, held the powerful Flint Hill hitters hitless and scoreless for the first three innings, during which time Rappahannock had managed to score one run without a hit, the A.C.’s big beta went• to work on him in the 4th and 6th innings, when they scored all seven of their runs, Featured among this attack was John Pickrell’s 2hd , home run of the year. The Chiefs’ other two rubs came in the 6th, but by this time their cause was futile. AU told, FJint Hill banged out 10 hits, three going for extra bases, while the Chiefs’ attack consisted of only four hits off Flint Hill hurlers. Lickliter, who pitched six innings and gave up all four hits before he tired and wasi relieved by Pickrell, received credit for the win, his second against three defeats. I The game wu characterized by Flint Hill’s sparkling: defensive play, especially by the performances of Horace Russell and Bob by North, first baseman North made two exceptionally fine catches of long fouls hit far to the right of first base, and second baseman Russell made three brilliant grabs of bloopers hit to right field which otherwise would have gone for hits. When Flint Hill went to Stanardsville Sunday, the game which resulted presented a sharp contrast to the Rappahannock game. In that poor excuse for a game, Stanardsville finally emerged the winner, by a football-like 16 - 12 score. When the marathon contest was at long last brought to a merciful end after consuming over three hours of playing time, the totals showed 33 hits, 28 runs, 13 errors, and 15 strikeouts for both rides, while a total of 25 players, including T pitchers, were thrown into action by both teams.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia . TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 \J? DUSTIN G. BEYER, Editor and Manager . . BASIL C. BURKE, JR. ic WILLIAM F. EARLS, Owners and Publishers , ___i__ Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION -(in advance).....|2.00 PER YEAR : YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS, By Rep. Burr P. Harrison .Relatively few citizens, even among those who are practicing lawyers, find it necessary to occupy themselves extensively with problems of Constitutional law. In school days, most of us became acquainted with this remarkable document as the framework of our governmental system, the essential structure of law and order fashioned by the Founding Fathers to serve the long succession of American generations. Even if we cannot recite significant portions of it, most of us regard the Constitution as an instrument of defense against oppression, despotism, and disorder. In recent years, however, we , have seen the steady progress of a calculated effort to uproot deepseated principles of community conduct and to impress rigid Federal controls on our local ways of life, all in the name of Constitutional directive. Can it be that the Constitution has become a mocking idol, returning a whiplash, for our reverence? Before we reject our Constitution as a protector who has played us false, however, let us remem' her that what Mr. Warren and • his colleagues write merely represents what the justices of the Supreme Court decide the Constitution ought to mean, whether if really means that or not. For more than 20 years, the Supreme Court has been devoting itself more to rewriting the Constitution than to interpreting it. This legislation by judicial fiat is stripping the States and their citizens of the rights which the draftsmen of the Constitution took such pains to protect. The justices ■re proceeding sedulously to fashion additional clubs for the arro gant Federal bureaucracy. One of the curious aspects of the new philosophy of Constitutional law is the idea of “pre-emption.” In simplest terms, this means that the Court has held that, when the Congress passes a law, a State law on the same subject becomes invalid, because the Federal Government has “occupied the ground .” This is quite a differant thing, of course, from the old principle that, in case of a direct conflict between provisions of a State law and a Federal law, the language of the latter should prevail. More than a year-and-a-half ago, Rep. Howard W. Smith of Virginia introduced a bill to straighten the court out on this. Judge Smith proposed to state that except in case of a direct conflict, or in case of a specific statuory instruction by'the Congress, no State law would become invalid merely because a Federal law on the same subject had been passed. Despite its great importance as a check on the drift to complete federalizzation of our American law and the aboragation of all State and local statutes and ordinances, Judge Smith was unable to get committee action on his bill until the Supreme Court threw out a Pennsylvania sedition law on the ground that the Federal Government had taken charge of all sedition matters by the Smith Act. This produced some limited allegiance to the principles of States rights among certain Northern legislators, and Judge Smith’s bill came out of committee to the floor of the House. (Action was scheduled for this week) The committee proposed, however, that the bill be rewritten to apply only to the sedition matter, and not operate to curb other Supreme Court excursions into legislating. It is a sad commentary on the degeneration of the concept of separation of powers in our Government that it should become necessary to call the Nation’s high xVeic Photo-Lights At Luray Caverns fit management of La ray Carerne boa installed twenty-fire 1,000 watt lamp* ao that now area the moat inexperienced of ahatter-hoga can carry home their on picture-story of a riait to the Beautiful Carerne of Laray, which ia aeen annually by more than 300,000 rieitora. est court to account, but it needs to be done, and it should be done— in the forthright terms originallyproposed by Judge Smith. An example of the need is the legislation to strengthen Federal controls against the vicious illicit traffic in narcotics, which was passed by Congress last week. This legislation is needed, but application to it of the doctrine of preemption’could mean that the federal courts would declare invalid all State laws on the subject, including Virginia’s, Slate Mills New* The Slate Mills Home Demonstration Club held its regular monthly meeting at Hawthorne House, home of Mrs. A.

Agent Explains Soil Bank Benefits By fV. H. Lyne, County Agent Most of you have already read articles on the Soil Bank giving the overall purposes and possibilities of benefits that a farmer may derive therefrom. While the Soil Bank is now under way, seemingly there are few in Rappahannock who can obtain any benefits this year. Actually the Soil Bank ha|s two parts: the Acreage Reserve, which is designed to reduce certain' crop surpluses (wheat being the! only crop grown in this county that is included) by offering cash J payments as inducement to plan: below acreage allotments; and (2) The Conservation Reserve, which has as its purpose to cut back excess production of crops in general by shifting to long term conservation practices. Participation in the Soil Bank is strictly voluntary. The 1956 Conservation phase, or program of the Soil Bank will not be out until around August 1. In so far as the Acreage Reserve Program is conserned, the only persons eligible for payment! are those, who because of weather conditions, failed to seed their [full wheat allotment last fall. If there are such persons, who in addition did not seed this acreage to any crop to be harvested in 1956, hen they are eligible to be paid at the rate of $4.00 per acre. Applications must be filed at! the local A SC office with M G<jGore on or before July 20th. Front Royal Tops ' Flint Hill, 4-1 In an exhibition game played under the lights at Bing Crosby Stadium, the Flint Hill A. C.’s were defeated by Front Royal, 4 - 1, in a contest which was a pitcher’s duel between fastballers John Pickrell and Mel Cameron. Cameron, holding the Flint Hill batters hitless for the last fire innings, went the distance for the win while striking out seven, and his mound opponent Pickrell fanned nine. The A.C,’s outhit Front Royal, 4-3, but the rules still state that the team which has the most runs shall be the winner of the game, so Flint Hill lost this game. The longest drive of the game was hit by Flint Hill’s Bob Cook, but Chink Winos palled it down with his beck against the wall at tiie deepest point in center Held. Tim < $tn )„*» r r i * RUFUS W.

The third annual "OPERATION ALERT” will bring into coordinated action the civil defense organisations of the United States, the Department of Defense, the Office of Defense Mobilisation, other Federal Department and agencies and the Dominion of Canada.

LYNE County Agent Leeway Farm, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Leon T. Greenaway of Washington, was high bidder on the Champion Hamp ram at the Winchester Ram Show and Sale held at Farmers Livestock Exchange on Monday, July 9th. This ram was consigned by Tex Telson Jr. of Orlean, who also showed the third place ram, is a grandson of the famous Goldmine and out of an Alex Meek ewe. A ram with an exceptionally fine front, Spring of rib and loin should prove a valuable addition to the Leeway flocks. In all there were 18 Hampshire rams which sold for an average of $76.39. Other breeds and averages were as follows: Shropshires, 5 head, $64.50; Southdowns, 2 head, $65.00; Suffolks, 2 head,. $80.00; Oxfords, 2 head, $27.50. This is the first time that Oxfords, a breed popular in the midwest, had been consigned to a ram sale in Northern Virginia. This sheep resembles the Shropshire in overall characteristics but more nearly approaches the Hamp in size. NOTICE TO WHEAT FARMERS Wheat farmers who intend to participate in the Soil Bank Acreage Reserve are informed that the original disposition date of June 30 has been extended until July 15. H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock Coounty ASC Committee said that the effect is to extend until July 15 the date by which wheat may be disposed of or destroyed by natural causes to participate in the Acreage Reserve. The extension has nothing to do with the date of June 1, 1054, which was the deadline for adjusting farm acreage of wheat to the farm allotment for purposes of avoiding penalty and eligibility for price support. An important thing for Wheat farmers to remember, Mr. Barksdale said, is that a farmer who did not bring his wheat acreage in line with his allotment by the deadline date of June 1, 1956 is not eligible to dispose of acreage below the allotment for the Acreage Reserve program.
