RAPPAHANNOCK HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS TO PRESENT PLAY MARCH 29TH Clean-lJp Paint-Up Week Starts Soon In the next few days you will hear “Clean-Up Pain-Up Fix.Up” everywhere. Perhaps you’ve been wondering why the Town of Washington is so actively pushing this campaign. Briefly, here are some reasons for this campaign. Clean-Up PaintUp Fix-Up produces health and safety, develops community spirit, reduces fire losses, teaches good housekeeping and respect for property. It encourages landscaping of vacant lots, restores and increases value of real estate, teaches youngsters a valuable civics lesson. You can easily see that you can’t afford not to support a campaign that offers so many values for you, your family, your home, your business, and your community. Let’s work together toward a common goal; a healthier, safer and more attractive community in which to live. Sucess depends on everyone.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 JOHN M. BARBER JR. and ROBERT E. MANY Editors and Publishers Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance)...$2.00 PEiTyEAR LETTER TO THE EDITOR Washington, Virginia March 19, 1957 Editors, Rappahannock News Washington, Va. Dear Sirs; I have a printed form letter, signed by Robert L. Brown, County Treasurer, which demands $2.10 claimed to be due on December 5th 1956 on the “1956 State Income Tax”, A notation written by Mr. Brown states that this is the third demand. > Conversation with Mr. Brown, and Mrs. Spalding, the Commissioner of Revenue, has failed to put the matter right. I can get no satisfaction from either. Since this is a printed form, I am wondering how many more of the taxpayers in this County have had similiar demands made upon them and also failed to get any satisfaction from the TaxAuthorities. The printed form states “1956 twtksoQgioooopopooaoooopot. with J SMOKES | BE CAREFUL f WITH ANY FIRE 1 - ont> m con PREVENT FOREST FIRES! State Income Tax which has been past due since December 5, 1956". Of course it must be obvious to all that most people cannot tell what their income is until the year is ended. The statement that 1956 income taxes are past due on December 5, 1956, proves to me, the kind of people we have elected as our local tax authorities. I hope that, in 1359, the people will make changes, so that the people will be able to go to the Court House, have their tax problems understood and adjusted fairly. The citizens should not be subjected to unfair tax demands. They should not bt threatened with “garnishment or levy”’ on taxes which are not yet due or arrived at And assessments should be made fairly and equitably, according to law, and without fear or favor— or special interest. I believe the people would like to see some changes made. Yours very truly, Claybert E.'Smoot (Signed) Clabert E. Smoot. ^(County Home ■ Demonstration NEWS Schedule For Next Week Monday, March 25—Luray 9:00 A.M. meeting on home lighting.

When figured on the basis of tha quantity of medicine the doctor asks you to take usury 24 hours, today’s prescription rarely costs you more than a daily ice cream soda.

Solar System is owned by Mrs, Louis L. Voigt, Jr. of Flint Hill. Lawful Ownership Of Wildlife Clarified According to I. T. Quinn, executive director of the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries, for many years after Virginia became a state the title to wildlife was in the name of the landowner on whose property such wildlife was found. The General Assembly of 1930 was convinced by the State Game Commission that our sys. tern of game ownership, comparable to that prevailing in England under a monarchy, was incompatible in a democratic form of government. Before long, should such a system continue to prevail, the state of Virginia would be without any useful forms of wildlife. The .result was that the General Assembly in 1930 enacted into law, on approval of the Governor, a statute hv which the Commonwealth of Virginia took title to "all wild birds, wild animals, and fish” for the benefit of all thei people of the state. Since that tirrie only the General Assembly, under the Constitution. and the Game Commission, by authority of the legislature, have sole and exclusive authorin’ to enact laws and regulations providing the means, time, manner and extent to which anv given species of wildlife mav be taken and possessed.
