In news reports on ,jqf Congress, text i n<i headline V writers often refer 'to Senators and Representatives /a® 'the 1*Wmakers.” In recent years, many ' members of Congress hgye come to regard, the appellation with -more cynicism 'than pride. The < reason is the growing influence of a perverted philosophy of lawmaking which has its fountainhead in '•‘the, marbled magnificence of the -Supreme Court Buiding. *> Despite the care taken by the - founders of the Republictp^apportion Federal power with logic and equality among the three ^ branches of the central government—Legislative, Executive and Harrison the activities ' - f i ,Judicial-—'we now n.m rtsentatives of the 4op,e ’n tress being stripped of* nrtuch of their Constitutional function by a contempuous judicial ^rogation of legislative authority;.! • , ■ On the other hand, ftw-enforcement officers of % Executive Branch—and of the! State and local governments—Vve found SemSves berefitj of effect^ means to protect citizens from communist subverted rapists and corrupters of youth-}-cla**s which have gained *fe Q U«C *'*V ft tude of thp ning-"lawgivers of the Supreme tourt. fTS‘his dangerous trend is the asffiich. the publ> is kenerally without realization of is extent. atrocious decisions «f/the court m the matter of publicfschool Integra-, 4&»n have overshadWwi a succesSon of other deci^ons wlyich, in. their impact on PuM,c safety, much more serious, even, than the Court’s vicious adventure in applied sociology as represented by the school fiats, whkh haye sought to place federal district judges tn <-Kante of our schools. , \ :vv< The P«bi»c conception is *uii. that opinion of the Court s eries has been divided o4 regional lines, Excoriation of the Court •jjly applauded in the South, even when a speaker oH wnter is amv menting on decisions in the field mnumfe v.. ——j _• • of criminal law, far from th, mWegration matter. Ih the rest of the i' tegration matter. V ^ ‘i, r~„r* Nation, any criticism of the Court is branded a? a seditious attack on the Federal judicia|ry by backward Southerners who havc not come to appreciate , the high ethical and mbrar principles which would be served by^nforced mten,xturc of - school children of different races Segregationists fcuss the court, and with good reason, but they should conshler the broader contributton which otbe] deciMons have .been making to thp breakdown of the pattern of representatives government in the United States Integrafionists defeid the court, which is their privilege, but, irrtsx -Jews on racial * be serving betcitizens of all with concern u, proteetton of the basest sort. pective of their■mixing, they wou ter the interests races if they 'vie* the Court’s « criminal . tfed^n.which has handcuffed pofice departments throughout the Nation ferts to obtain evidence by reason able interrogation iof suspects, « prime example. Mallory, a Negro convicted of the brutal rape of a white woman, was set free. Now, his nephew, also a convicted rapist, has applied for the same treatment, ’ citing his uncle’s case. In the meantime,. Mallory has been charged with assaulting a Negro woman and has disappeared. A benign court gave him opportunity to establish that he could become involved in segregated as well as integrated lawlessness. ’ Fn other decisions, the Court has struck down Stjite laws designed to protect young people from peddlers of pornographic literature; it has Sprung to the defense of a nudist magazine and another frankly dedicated to homosexuality; it has cheered Communist conspirators by protecting their advocacy of overthrowing the government, as long a% the. reds don’t say precisely ‘ how thev intend to overthrow it; it has disrupted efforts of the States to protect their peoole from communist teachers and the practice of law bv communists; it has Wrgd. the States from enacting laws' against subversives it has given gangland carte blanche to olir its nefarious deals by telephone, and provided new av suranee and swagger for the thugs who room the streets of the Nation’s Capital, scornful of police and prosecutor. > Tr mav well he asked. *\Vhy isn’t something done about it ?* There is no question that much can be done; if the people in all parts of the Nation become ^aroused.* Congress* for example, authority to iry subversives for, contempt at its own bar; the Cori'stitution gives Congress authority to limit the appellate iurisdiction of the Supreme Court; the Governors and Legislatures of the States can oppose t>v a number of legal instruments the invasion of the lawmaking field by the sociological theorists and legal oolitjcans who now sit on and debase the Constitutional function of our highest court. The Executive Branch can free itself from its recent demeaned status as mere handmaiden of the judiciary in law enforcement. 1 All this cannot come to pass, however, while citizens yiesy the Court only in the light of their pwn convictions on school segregation or integration. Highhanded as they may be, the school decisions have widespread public acceptance outside the South.'It is doubtful that our neighbors to the North and West would be so quick to approve the Supreme Court nullification of their protections against crime and subversion implicit in other court actions of recent years if these fearsome edicts were brought forcefully to their notice. There may be hope in the fact a few newspapers outside the South have begun to do this. rKtVtn l ri/KCJi rins.» Ez Tike says that glasses do Strange things to his vision . . . particularly after they’ve been drained and refilled a couple of times. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear fditor; . I am a regular reader of- your weekly < paper, “The Rappahan'nock News'*. I see where by the Hoard of Supervisors have passed a new law ih the county, ta prohibit dancing after midnight Saturday nights. “Fine!” “Keep the Good Work up.” My question is: Is it or is it not a law in Rappahannock or even the State of Virginia to operate public or private gambling joints? If if is not lawful to operate gambling joints, why do they continue to operate day after day? Are our law enforcing officers asleep on the job: Have they all retired on a face salary or do they see and don’t see for the sake of a few votes at election time? If you can answer these questions please do so through your next issue of the “Rappahannock News,” Sincerely, * 7 Puzzled Reader Scientists Are Born In Local Schools In a recent speech President Eisenhower called for an ambitious ■program of Education to provide more scientists, America’s failure to train enough scientists, researchers, technicians and engineers long has been recognized. Educators have sounded warnings time and time again. Now, the bitter fruit has been harvested. America has taken a back seat to Russia in satellite development. The nation is stunned. Government leaders are picking up the words and the warnings of the educators. In that sense, Russia’s suptniks have been good for, the United States. We are waking up to our educational needs. What we will do to meet them remains to be seen. Scientists are born in the early vea*-s of schooling.. If the U. S. is to have the best scientists, then it must have the best education system from the first grade onward. Certainly, colleges and graduate schools will have to strengthen their training. But whether or not a youngster is going to take that training generally is determined years before they .ever reach college. .

American Red Cross collects* more than 2,000,000 bottles of .this precious fluid from voluntary donors each year. In- the fiscal year 1955-1956, it distHbu-’ ted blood to 3,900 hospitals in 46 states and the District of Columbia. • Twenty-two hundred of these hospitals got their total supply of whole t4(|G. from the Red Cross, Tile Red Cross now operates 50 regional centers. Blood is collected processed and stored in refrigerators until it is distributed to hospitals or shipped to laboratories which have contracts with the Red Cross to convert the blood to such derivatives as gama globulin, serum albumin, and fibrinogen. Only about one fifth of all Red Cross collected blood is donated at centers. The other eighty per cent is taken from vqlunteer donors at visits of boodpiobiles which operate' out of the centers.

Entry lists have now closed, and - Angus men all over America, are iaid to be eagerly awaiting the bieevent, with many of them making plans to come to Richmond to see the judging and participate in the selling of more than 400 Aberdcen-Angus bulls. A distinguished t committee,f featuring names well known through-' tut the Angus world, is set to sift the (ftttle and place them in classes for die ultimate judging of the top and the selling of that and the ne*t two highest ratings. Serving on the sifting committee are Dr. Paul Keesee. manager of Kermac Ranch.

Mouse contamination of grain is increasingly becoming important in many areas where rat populations hive been drastically reduced and the mouse population is growing. Such are the alarmmg, but true statistics furnished by the United States Fish and Wildlife 8ervice and compiled in a brochure published by the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation of Madison.

Cleon groin means money in the farmer s pocket Today the fanner is not aa helpless in the face df rat menace aa he was ten yean ago. In addition to the traditional defensive measures, he can now actively fight this menace with the proven, easy-to-use rat and modse killer. Discovered in the labo KarjUPeu! ' of Wiseon? ratones of Professor Link of the University i sin, warfarin was patented by the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation. Warfarin kills rodents by thinning their blood until they die of internal hemorrhage, over a period of 5 to 14 days. It k not a “quick kill” poison and there k no bait shynem. The rodents simply eat warfarin containing baits until they die. Warfarin k comparatively safe when there am children about, because it k alow acting and usually mixed with unappetizing cereal baits to be fed to the rata and mice. The entire community, working together, can win the war against rodents, a campaign that k bound to add up to a cleaner neighborhood, a safer community and the prevention of wasteX A few basic steps to remember in personally fighting this enemy are to keep garbage and refyae containers tightly covered, ratproof buildings by dosing all boles in exterior walls, and make » use of any 'of the rodentiddas containing warfarin, available under various trade names in stores throughout the country.

Polio Victims Can benefit From Rehabilitation Program One out of every 3 polio crippled Virginians can be returned to a higher degree of self-sufficiency through continued rehabilitation, recent patient Surveys have shown, /llbis announcement came from the S$te Officc of the National Foundation in Richmond, .opening the 11958 20th Anniversary March of 'Dimes. , <"■ "The surveys conducted by 107 volunteer Virginia chapters last fall revealed that about 6,500 persons now residing in the Old Dominion have suffered the crippling effects of polio,” stated John Yeatts, State Representative of the ■ Foundation.! ■ "Of these, it is estimated by the chapters’ Medical Advisory Committees, more than'2,000 can benefit from the expanded rehabilitation program financed by the March of Dimes," he stated. ^ ."Many of these people ^an become employable through' new techniques in surgery, assistive devices, functional and vocational training,” said Yeatts. ‘‘Even beyond the humanitarian aspect of the continued care of these patients it's simply good economics to enable them to produce income rather than requiring financial support from the March of Dimes and tax supported institutes,” he commented. The Foundation spokesman went on to say that during the ' past 20 years, six and one half million dollars, or about 65 per cent of all money contributed to the March of Dimes in Virginia has been spent for the care of patients within the state. ‘This is exclusive of all equipment, gamma globulin, vaccine, public and professional education,” he concluded. State Health Dept News In view of the recent informs^ tion on radiation exposure from xraysC fntdrsted Statc groups meeting to re-evalua«* community 70 mm x-ray surveys decided that in such surveys emphasis should be placed on selective groups rather i than on a communitv-wide basis, teport* Dr. Mack I. ShanboffzT, State Health Commissioner. Groups represented at the meeting last week were the Virginia Medical Society, the Virginia State Department of Health, the Virginia Tuberculosis Association aijd the Virginia Trudeau Society. Speaking for the representatives attending the meeting, Dr. Shanholtz said that they recommended the use of chest x-rays to find cases of tuberculosis among groups • with the greatest risk if contracting the disease. This include* persons confined to hospitals, mental, penal, and other institutions, low income groups, migrant workers, and people known to be exposed to tuberculosis. It was j generally agreed, he* ' said, that mass x-ray programs, when operated under competent auspices and with the approval of State and loqal health departments and medical societies, are still fundamental in the detection of tuberculosis. It was concluded that the / risks from exposure are relatively small compared wjth tire benefits th*t can he expected. * During the meeting the repre-' sentatives of the various groups stressed that It is highly important that anyone 18 years or over who has never had a chest x-ray make a definite effort to have an x-ray taken. They suggested a tuberculin test for ,those persons under 18, followed by an x-ray when necessary. Routing chest x-rays for all hospital and clinic admissions were , also recommended. , . / Statistics brought out in thgf meeting showed that in Virginia * an estimated 5,0Q0 to 10,000 undiagnosed cases of active tuberculosis in need of treatment are awaiting detection, ■/ , i. “" k News For Veterans Veterans receiving nonserviceconnected disability pensions from Veterans Administration are not affected by the recent increase in rates&riJf^VA disability compensa- * tion for service-connected disabilities, the agency said in answer to numerous inquiries. Pointing out that only disability compensation rates have been increased, VA explained that many peotpe mistakenly think the words, “disability pension” and “disability compensation" mean the same tMtig. , * Disability pension, according to VA, is paid only to a wartime vet. eran for disease or injury NOT connected with his service, and then only under certain conditions.

Therefore, yesteryear* sights of tractors and combines corroding in open fields or under trees are becoming less common. * The pole building provides much better protection than trees and at very little cost when compared with waste caused by depreciation of implements. It is a modification of the faimU. ers’ standby, the pole bam, which costs less to erect than other types of construction and yet is sturdy and flexible. Pole buildings can pay for themselves in a handful of years by providing longer service life of implements. The buildings will last much longer than a few years if they are erected with poles awl lumber commercially treated with pennanent-type preservatives such as penta, which' pro tecta wood from termite* and rot. These buildings can be multi* purpose structures and can be easily converted to other uses. Combination bar-corn crib-implement buildings have been built Tool rooms, garages, or grain storage sections can be provided within the building. Contractors specialised in putting up pole buildings quickly and efficiently are available in most parts of tfee country. For the fanner who wants to put up his own buildings, penta-treated poles and lumber as well as other necessary materials are available from building supply dealers. Plans are readily available from the U. 8.

The payment method on lambs will be the same as under the current 1957 program. Each producer “ who owns lambs for 30 days or more and sells the lambs unshorn will be eligible for a payment. The payment will be made on the I weight increase of the animals that i occurs during each producers per-: < tod of ownership. , Payments to producers who buy unshorn lambs and later shear them Will be subject to a downward adjustment in any shorn wool incentive payment they apply. for. The downward adjustment will bd the amount due previous owners on the liveweight of the unshorn lambs purchased. In making applications for payments on unshorn lambs or die first shearing of wool from them, producers are required^ to report all the liveweight of all such lambs purchased. t In contrast to the shorn wool payment, payments on unshorn lambs will be a fixed rate per hundredweight of live lambs sold. For 1956 marketings, the payment rate on unshorn lambs was 71 cents per hundredweight. This payment was based on the average shorn wool incentive payment, the average weight of wool per hundred pounds of lamb, and the value of lamb wool in relation to shorn wool. , ' ' For payment purposes, the average weight of wool per hundred pounds of unshorn lamb is assumed to be five pounds. The value of Iamb wool has' been set at 80 per cent of shorn wool values becauselamb wools normally coarser in o-rade and shorter in staple length. The 71-cent per hundredweight payment for 1956 was five (the average poundage weight of wool per hundred pounds of lamb) times 14.2 cents, which is 80 per cent of the difference between the average price of 44.3 cents producers - received for their 1956 marketings and the incentive price of 62 cents for- shorn wool. The payment for 1958 lamb marketings will be determined in this same manner. The lamb payment is designed to discourage unusual shearing of lambs prior to slaughter. The National Wool Act of 1954, which authorizes the wool incentive program, also provides for the support of mohair prices.^ This support for the 1958 program has been set at 70 cents per pound—thP same support price as for the 1955. 1956. and 1957 marketing years. No payments were ream red on mohair sales during the 1955 and 1956 marketing years because the average price was above the 70rent support price. Market prices 'during the current 1957 market-, ing vear have also been running above the support price and no payments are expected to be necessary. Ff payments are required, they will be made in the same manner a* for short*wool. No payments will be made on marketing - The shorn wool and unshorn lamb payments for the 1958 mar. keting vear will be made on the basis of applications filed bv producers not later than April 30, 1959 with their countv Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC Offices. Producers arc ur^ed to keeo their accounts of cal- :n " «4fe nlace because these a^ the dodbments which must be ■ filed with jhe oavment application. .The acco/nt of sale must have the information needed to support the nroducer’s “payment application. ASC offices will make the payments in the summer, of 1959. Producers arr also urged to get the best nobble price in selling the-V wool. Under the percentage method of payment, the higher return the indivi'’"d nroducer gets in the market the larger his incentive payment is. Th’« method is designed to encoumsw nroducers to do the best rm-sible job of marketing their wool. The wool incentive program is authorized bv the iNatfbnal Wool Act of 1954 to encourage an annual domestic production of 300 million pounds of shorn wool. 4 There is «pme evidence of re.>*",- -. . ./■ - .-j ! f stocking to increase sheep numbers. The drought which forced liquidations of flocks jin major wool-producing areas, particularly in the Southwest, has been broken. Wool production in the so-called ‘‘Native” sheeo States was On 3 1956 but per cent in 1957 from this was more than offset by the reductions forced by drought in the major producing Western, sheep ... -i*';. Under the National Wool Act, the incentive payment program i* authorized to run four years, from the 1955 marketing year through the 1958 marketing year which ends March 31,1959, Payments have been mad,, for two marketing years. (1955 and 1956) and now total $108,451,000 Through Sept.. 1957, payments for 1956 marketings total $50,825,356 Of this total, $43,048238 waa paid on shorn wool and $7,777,414 in unshorn lamb payments. From these amounts, $3,008,895 was deducted as authorized by producers for the self-help industry promotion and marketing program under Section 708 of the National Wool Act of 1954. Payments under the first year.of the pros gram (1955) amounted to $57.625.356—$50,017,814 in shorn wool payments and: $7,607,542 paid on lambs. Deductions for the promotion 202. amounted to $3,099.Spinster Minnie most important thing is his appearance er the better. ‘ike says the about a man and the soonWeeklu Farm Price Outlook (This it the tray Prospects far Virginia farm pricesj looked to the. Virginia Department of Agricultnre on Friday. The Department offers it to farmers ivith the warn ing that no one can predict price* and be right all the time.) HOGS Don’t sell hogs light, but push 'any that will make 180 pounds in the next two-three weeks. There is no telling when it will start but at least by mid-February hog prices are due for a substantial dip that will probably extend through March. • i: v > • J Ifw.11 be more severe this year than the $2 drop from February 1 to mid-March last year, and may be worse than th* $3 drops in about the same period in 1955 and 1956. On December 1, the mid-west botr belt reported 6% mor^ hogs three to six months old on farms than last year. The advance guard of these hogs, coming to market, is already closing thg gap between this year’s market receipts and last year’s higher figures. ,'*N ' After March, prices should'recover fairlv well, and climb gradually to a Supimer peak. The December 1 mid-west inventory indicated only about one per cent morc hogs under three months on farms, so after March, market receipts should be about the same as last year. . , .) But figure your prices rises on the low side. The Chicago hogcorn ratio now stands at a very, attractive 16 to one. Virginia auction average hogs was up 40 Cents last week at $20 10 and Richmond vards steady at $19.75 tp $2025. Baltimore, was ut» 50 pents at $20.75 *o $21.25 and Chicago-Indianaoolis up a quarter at $19.25 to $20. BROILERS Broilers will hold the 3-4c gain they made last week. and stand a mod chance to strengthen another. cent this week. But the momentum of the recent swift upswing may be about used up, a swing that moved Valiev prices up 8c 1m the past month. > A factor that has turned up unexnectedly is a very high mortality : ■ ' .. . 1 FRONT ROYAL LIVESTOCK MARKET v Front Royal Va. f January 16, 1958 HOGS: top barrows & gilts, 20.55,; heavy butcher, 19-20.TQ light butcher, 16.60-19.50; butcfifcr sows, 17,75; feeder shoats, 16.5018.

Coupled with that are higher prices on - competitive meats and a mild but steady promotion job on broilers. Slaughter has just about kept pace with supply in the past four r. to six weeks. Looking ahead, supplies are expected to be ab&it 9% above last year in February, unless the high mortality keeps up, and by Match . the supply will be up a bit more.
