■ What About the People's Right to Knowt \ s MeSss OF / STATE S . AND local GOVERNMENTAL .BODIES UNWARRANTED 'SECRECY! WE THE PEOPLE / ✓ Two Paths To The Same Result i A recent [issue of the Wall Street journal had seven items listed in a column called Business and Finance. Six were as follows: A l.Ahto dealers new car stocks rpount rapidly. Manufactur^ ers^uHs^il assemblies sharply. *Steel operations not far from the”lows, of 1954 business recession. Production slated to fall another 15 points. Synthetic cloth leavers plan Holiday shut downs. Most air lines operated in the red &8t month, although volume 10% above same month last year; •Copper [industry looks for additional'cuts in out put. Copper lmining in U. S. has been reduced 12,000 tpns monthly1 this year. • American Radiator will trhp operations at five plants. Marguette cement will suspend production in eight of ted plants for up to [eight weeks affecting about 1080 “workers. > And the seventh item? What else but this: “Living (costs climbed to a further new high last month— up 0.4% (from preceeding month)—3.2% higher than a ~ i year ago.” * v‘,;W-,v ;■*^ ■ I This practically writes its own editorial. When prices (the cost of living) get too high, ^buying slows down, an;! when buying slows down, production must be cut. In the days of free enterprise and the gold standard this as a sure sign the baloon had burst. A depression set in, belts were tightened, and those'that could, waited for prices to drop and consumption, to catch up with production. i - ■; ,\. In our welfare state the baloon doesn’t break. Instead the' government increases the expenditure ■ of money it hasn’t gdt. We rely,on waste and “give aways” to burn up excess production. Thus the baloon is blown up even Mgh,.er. This is a picturesque way of saying we have further inflation; No one wants t*> see another free enterprise depression^ The fear of one haunta bur nation. But op the .oother hand the dollar is already down to 48 cents in vaue. Like the explorers of old we .may well be traveling west to get to the east.

ThiaUrtist be written-an advance of delivery of the President’s State .of the Union message, a document in which heavy emphasis is placed on the urgent defense needs of the United States, In future reports, perhaps we can consider some of the specific recommendations made in the message. Details of that document undoubtedly are the. I subiect of extensive commentary bv now elsewhere in the press. - The b^ question ,to be ponderjjl by members of Congress in this session, is the adequacy of our abilitv to deter reckless aggression ' bv an unprincipled commuhist dictatorship and to prevent the annihilation of our country if such * dread attack should occur. We , shall have to study a mass of data • On Tuesday, I answered the first roll call of the second session of the 85th Congress. Before the on the claimed capabilities ot numerous missies and other complex and tremendously expensive weapons. We shall have to make up our minds as to how many additional billions of dollars must’ be spent in the cause of, national safety on our own military establishment and in the support of allies. , Then, we shall have to decide how the bill is to be paid—by borrowin&Jjy higher taxes or by reductions in other functions ' of the Federal Government. While the first reaction to the , President’s proposals is being reported by the news services, we might glance at the “unfinished business” of this Congress—bills which passed either Senate or House last year and as to which there may be expected to be some * demand for action in the chamber which has not considered them. As this is the; same Congress as the one which closed shop last August 30, these bills will not have to be re-iittroduced. j s I, , ^ f These are among the bilk which'1 Have passed the House, but not the .

Gordon said.,of the program. "Livestock diseases .. alone cost Virginia farmers more i than $25,000,000 each year, and another $65,000,000 could be added to farm incofne by proper use of fertiliser, litpe, and seed-....

Those who farm the land depend on city-based industries and trade’ for nearly all the equipment, about half the raw material supplies used in the farm business and many of the items in common use in the farm home.

These urban industries, in turn, cannot live without the farm market and the products . of the farm.” .

LYNE County Agent I Recently, a friend handed me a copy of an article “Apple Per Capata Consumption." At the time I had been digging into statistics determining various commodity trends etc., of Rappahannock’s agriculture. i . Having this train of thought; having just learned that: wages from one hours labor in 1925r would buy 8.6 pounds of apples while in 1956 wages for the same period of time at work would buy 15.8 pounds; this article impressed, me all the more.. If you are an apple grower and have read the article before, I hope you will read it again. Even if you don’t grow apples I hope you will read jt for the situation of our apple growers concerns us all but vitally. As goes Rappahannock’s apple industry so goes your economy whether you be doctor, lawyer, merchant or mechanic/Besides to make sound plans for anything; the first thing one must do, is to “know where we are. . whaf the Situation is.” We can't get from Washington to Sperryville unless we first .know we are in Washington, its as simple as that. . Ewe Lambs Best For Slaughter * v For sometime the two largest slaughters of Virginia lambs hav#» been complaining about buck lambs and reducing the quality and yield of our lambs.»They have asked ..that the buck lambs be sold separately from the ewe and wtther lambs and the largest buyer of'our * top grade lambs has said that if ' the bucks are hot separated this year he will only buy our lambs when h« can not fill his qhota elsewhere. Their objection to buck lambs ‘is that they yield less, produce lower quality carcasses and require more help on the falling floor thhn ewe and wether lambs. Long tailed lambs were also objectd to and one packer stated that' at certain times and with some grades the long tailed lambs were as much a problem and hurt the quality as much as the bucks. At the annual meeting of the Virginia Livestock’ Market Operators, the market operators present unanimously agreed to separate and sell the buck lamfes separate from the ewe and wether lamt* in all grades. The long tailed lambs will not be sold separate this year with the hope that this job will be clone along with the castrating and the percent age. of long tails will be so small that it will not be necessary to -come back in a year or two and ask that, they be sold ^separate. There is still a place and ; heed for more sheep in Rappahan; nock and a quality program will continue to pay the fanner big dividends.
