Brush Burning Law In Effect The Virinia Division of Forestry announces that the Virginia Brush Burning Law has become effective as pf March 1, and will stay in effect until May 15. This law covers all burning of brush, trash, leaves,; grass, debris or other inflammable material capable of spreading fire to woodland or brushland. The law states that it is unlawfu to start any open fire within 300 feet of woodland or brushland except between' the hours of 4 o’clock in the afternoon and 12 o'clock midnight. Approximately 40 percent of all forest fires start as a resut of out door burning. Since the most dant gerous time for forest fires occurs during the months of March, April and May,ithe law helps considerably in reducing the number of fires because burning during the most hazardous daylight hours is practically "eliminated. Forestry personnel ask the cooperation of the public in all outdoor burning By burning during the legal houns, the danger of a fire escaping is not as great 35 earlier in the day. It is especialy important to stay with each fire until it is completely1 extinguished. Other precautions include a nearby supply of tools and water when burning, and additional help, especially where burning large pile* of trash and brush. \ Rapp - Chats \ $ !' i . ri.

RAPPAHANNOCK NE.W8 PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING/ At Washington, Rappahannock County, Vi/ginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2853 BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Cl V','3 Entered as Second Class Mall at the Port Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) .. .*2.50 PER YEAR CONGRESS ADMITS fT Soon after the 1954 ruling of th& Supreme Court making school intergation “the law of the7land”, this paper came forth with a modest proposal to^save U. S. taxpayers untold billions of dollars^, i. Historically, the role of COTgress has been to enact legislation, and the role of the Supreme Court has been to interpret this legislation. Since 1954, however, it has been apparent that the Court has assumed the duties of Congress, and that the immense cost of maintaining our Federal legislature is no longer a partial, but a complete waste. We presume our modest proposal is still fermenting in the subconscious mind of America and \jdll burst forth, eventually, in proper porm. Senator Dirkson, by introducing his so called civil rights bill into Congress, should certainly accelerate this progpfess. Section 4 of his bill would recognize the 1954 CourFdecision as the law of the land. How could Congress more frankly admit that it is already six years behind the Court in passing laws? Why do we continue to support this duplicating process? In another decade the Court will have passed so many laws, Congress will never catch up. We repeat, it is hifffi time to eliminate the wasteful expense of maintaining a United States Congress. B. C. B. JR. YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS ii. «i !.u>r (J. Harrison Washington—The “spenders” may well have their days during this season of Congress, but the pre-session warnings against their expected reckless adventures have not yet been borne out in the House of Representatives. As usual the House Appropriations Committee has been reducing rather than adding to, President Eisenhower’s budget estimSp'. The House as a whole has been going along with its committee and approving the cuts. It is much t<x> early, of course, to predict the overall money performance of this Congress, but to date, it has been taking a stern and questioning view of Mr. Eisenhower's figures in its examination of the regular appropriation bills. 'Idle defense and foreign aid motley bills will not be ready until spring, so the reduction have been coming in nondefense activetits of the Federal Government. (In Mr. Eisenhower’s record peacetime budget of nearly $80 billion for fiscal year 1961, which begins this July 1, all of the $1^ billion increase over the current year’s total is in the nondefense category.) As I believe the Federal Govern mer.t could operate On aiuc, les> money than the President has requested, 1 hope the House Appropriations Committee will continue the record so far made of recommending lower totals than contained in the budget, and that justifiable reductions will survive the legislative process in both House and Senate. The first regular appropriation bill of the year contained money to operate the government of the District of Columbia_Washington, the Nation’s Capital. This iiwi, local taxes, established by Congress, but it has been customary for the city to be given, in addition to its own revenues, a “lump sum’’ from the gereral fund of the Treasury in consideration of the special impact of federal activities, which do not pay the local taxes but require local services. The House reduced the President's “lump sum” figure by $7 million, and the overall savings in the bill, taking into account increases approved in certain items, came to $5.3 million. ITie next regular appropriation bill carried money for the Commerce Department, Panama Canal, Sr. Lawrence Seaway Development Corp., Small Business Administration and Tariff Commission. In considering the budget figures, the House did not agree with Mr. Fisenhower, for example, that 94 new positions should be created in the Bureau of Foreign Commerce, or that 200 new jobs were needed at this time J2.60 PER YEAR RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Date. NAME . R. p. D. or Box No. t State City. From.------.To...— □ NEW " □ RENEWAL Amount $Signed in the Weather Bureau. The Committee and the House as a whole finally voted, in this bill, $39 million less than the President has asked. The Interior Department Appropriation bill included funds for the activities^of that department, in which we find the National Park Service, as well as for the Forest Service, which is part of the Agriculture Department. The committee and the House approved some increases, including a modest amount for research on blackbird control which seems to have be come a growing problem ror farmers in some sections of Virginia and other States. It did not appear essential, though, for the taxpayers of the entire Nation to contribute more than $2 million to buy small park areas in the prosperous Virginia and Maryland suburbs of Washington, so this item was cut out of the budget. The committee managed to find other reductions to accomplish a total saving of nearly $7 million. The House action on the Treasury-Post Office Appropriation bill produced cries of pain and anger from a member of the President's Cabinet.Postmaster General Summerfield. Mr. Summerfield said he was “shocked” and would have to “curtail service drastically” if the postal reduction were made to stick. In this instance, there was considerable floor debate in regard to the magnitude of the cut. Opponents of the reduction said Mr. S'ummerfield really would have to reduce postal service if more money were not provided. Supporters of the committee action said he should be able to gev^Non the amount provided but. if h# could prove he couldn’t. Congress certainly wouldn't let the postal service collapse and coud consider a suppementa] appropriation during the coming fiscal year. After the debate, tne Mouse approved the bill in the form recommended by its committee.a total reduction from the budget figures of more than $102 million. In the four regular appropriation bills mentioned, the House made reductions amounting to more than $153 million. That is rot a big bite out of a budget of $79,800 million, but it is something. How much of this saving will stick? How much more will be saved in the coming procession of other appropriation bills? How will the final spending record ]<x>k ? In bits and pieces, the coming months will provide the answers. driv£int theatre FROST ROYAL On Straiburg Road DRIVE-IN NIGHTS ARE HERE AGAIN! GALA REOPENING! A New Season of Smash Hits FRI. SAT.

Rambling8 From Rappahannock DEAR FOLKS Went to a fabulous game dinner party Saturday night. Never did have so many goodies at one time. It was all “delies.” . Well I am certain of^ one thing —yesterday is one birthday I won’t forget for a long time. I had awonderful day until around five when Arthur came in and announced, "Emily, I’ve got mumps”. “Oh, for heaven’s sake, Arthur! Not really?”, I replied. I have never had them. Trippy Keating was sittng on the sofa arid at this point she looked anything but happy. No she hasn't had them either, and J am afraid hits of out guests yesterday haven’t—but time will tell—I am afraid—and the Point-to-Poin Races Saturday I! I noticed in most of .the stores in Culpeper today that business would cease Friday, March 4th for one hour, from 10:30 until 11 :30 a.m. in observance of the World Day of Prayer. I think it would be simply wonderful if all business far and wide would close for just an hour—let the world stop, pray and think. We have heard from three people who were born in Leap Year. They are Mary Sue Atkins, Mrs. Wade Settle and Lillard Jackson. Talking to Cassie Coates this morning, she informed me that her granddaddv, Dr. Snead, is a very young man. Isn’t she wonderful? In heaven's name, isn’t there some way to slow our young driv ers down (as well as the older ones?) Another young boy was killed over the weekend. He was only seventeen t ears old.

Beard, Safety Supervisor. With 11 lost-time accidents suffered last year, employees recorded 4 42 percent reduction in losttime accidents over 1958 and the amazing figure of an 83 percent reduction over 1950. Five of the System’s 11 major operating districts completed the year without a lost-time accident. Wincheser, Waynesboro, Martinsburg, Romney and Luray districts recorded a clean slate in 1959. PE’s Substantiation and Communications Department, with divisions at Frederick, Hagerstown, Cumberland and Front Royal, again came through the rear without a lost-time accident, and once again captured PE’s Inter-Department Safety Trophy. Treat Sheep For y Worm All adult sheep should be treated for worms before turning them on spring pasture. Phenathiazine or phenathiazine containing lead arsenate should be used. It will be too late if you wait until shearing time to give the treatment. One wormy sheep will drop enough worm eggs to infest a large flock of sheep this summer. Estimates show that internal parasites rob sheep producers of one fourth of their sheep returns.® Don’t share your profits with worms. Plan to shear your sheep before the weather gets too hot, corn planting rime is about the ideal shearing time. A week or ten days after shearing is a good time to spray for ticks and lice. Sheep that are c, rayed or dipped each year usually have few or no ticks and in manv cases shear more wool. DDT, HHC or Lindane can be used. Do not useTHC or Lindane on very young lambs.
