Filth In The Mails V— Members of the congregation of the Washington Baptist Church, at a recent business meeting, voiced their approval of the efforts of Postmaster General Summerfield to rid the U. S. mails of “filth and mail-order obscenity”. They deplored the fact that the evil had been allowed to grow to such proportions, when there are tax supported agencies.whose duty it is to_“nip them in the bud.” These agencies evidently have done nothing.—or very little, if we are to Continued en page eight Robert Massie Speaks At Service Robert Lee Massie, Jr., son of Mrs. Frank Spalding of Flint Hill, Va. made a talk at the Interdenomi n a t i o n a 1 Thanksgiving Day Church service at the Army and Air Force Base at Saumur, France.

iaoo^ooooooooooaoo&aooooooaooooootataooooooot»oooo^ RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING f ^ At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia ; ' \\ TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2861 »' V? -*" : \- BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as Second Class Mall at the Poet Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance)-r..— ?2.60, PER YEAR YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS Bv Ret. Burr P. Harrison Washington—Most labor legislation tends to be controversial. By its nature, it generates sharp arguments as to purpose and effecfc In this area of lawmaking, one of the principles recurringly in dispute is embraced by “right-towork” legislation. In general, “right-to-work” laws are those statutes which prohibit agreements requiring that an individual be a member of, or agree tto join, a labor union in order to be considered for employment. A partial acceptance of this principle nationally is represented by the Tafti Hartley Act, which bans “closed shop" agreements.those which require the worker to be a union member before employment. This federal law does not prohibit “union shop” agreements, in which employer and labor union agree that any workers hired who are not already union members must join the union within a certain time or be discharged. Nineteen States, including Virginia have gone a step further by enacting their own “right-to-work” laws, which outlaw both closed shop and union shop. In Congress, there have been efforts to relax the Taft-Hartley Act in regard to arrangements which employers and unions might make to insure that only union workers be hired. On the other) hand, there has been considerable support for a national “right-towork” law along the lines of those voted by the legislatures of nineteen States. With militant noerai lorccs h> 'the -majority in both parties in the Congress, however, a national “right-to-work" law is not likely to come to a vote this year. An odd sidelight on the “rightto-work” idea., a sort of raciallyselective right to work plan has been in the news in recent weeks through the activities of Vice President Nixon in his capacity as Chairman of the President’s Committee fth (jovernment Contracts. As the civil rights debate heated up in the Senate, Mr. Nixon went into action on a report given the committee by the National Association for' the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), charging that it was impossible for qualified Negroes to obtain employment in the skilled crafts, because most craft unions xvouldn t accept them, either as journeymen or apprentices. Although the law doesn’t require it, it seems that virtually all large construction jobs of the Federal Government are awarded to unionized contractors, whose workers are engaged through union “hiring halls”. One of these contractors, Matthew McCloskey of Philadelphia, found himself in the middle when Mr. Nixon’s committee suddenly became very active. Mr. McCloskey is building a new Congressional office building here, as well as other structures. According to the press accounts, he has collective bargaining agreements with construction unions under which the unions furnish the needed workers. The complaint was that Mr. McCloskey wasn’t using qualified Negro craftsman. Mr. McCloskey acknowledged that this might be true, but pointed out that his agreement was that the union would refer workers to his jobs, and they weren’t referring Negroes. After a conference with secretary of Labor Mitchell and President George Meany of the AFLCIO, the Vice President said he saw hope of a "breakthrough”.... contractors on Federal Government jobs would be told they mus^ hire qualified Negroes, union af greement or no, and, if they did not comply, the Federal Government could take them into gourt. Mr. Meany said he, too, w&s unhappy about the failure of/ra^ union locals to refer competent Negroes, and, if the contractors, trying to comply with the directive of the Presidential committee, couldn't find any, he would round up some. Mr. McCloskey said this was all right with him.that it might even be a good idea if he were taken into court, because he was all for hiring qualified Negroes, but didn’t see what he could do about it if the unions with which he had agreements wouldn’t refer any. If the Nixon-Mitchell-Meany plan is carried out, there will be in effect, without any new action of Congress, a special “right-to-work ’ arrangement for Negro construction workers on Federal projects. Management union agreements for hiring through union referrals would be superseded in the case of the Negro applicant. Nothing has^appeared in the reported comments of the principals in this commotion with respect to how this arrangement would apply, if at all, to the qualified nonunion white craftsman who could not get the union to “refer” him to work on a Government project. $2.50 PER YEAR RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Date_ NAMER.

A LTN» County Agent The March issue of Progressive Farmer has an attractive picture of the Ned Johnson’s home on the front cover with Mrs. Johnson and the Billy Kilby children at the yard gate. • • • • As a matter of fact, more recognition came the Johnson’s way last week. Ned, Jr. was chosen as a director of the Virginia Beef Cattle Improvement Association. And although he says his bulls at the Culpeper Feeder Test didn’t do as well as last year, they stood up well in comparison with the other Angus bulls. Using chain numbers for identification alone, then dimjnating: pedigrees suspicious ofawsjrfism and bulls with a grade below choice” and selecting these with 2.0 lbs. or better average daily gain while on dam and while on feed; I wound up with 22 out of the 75 Angus completing the test. All five of the Johnson’s bulls stood up under this process of selection. In comparing these 22, final choice was based on: type score, lifetime record of performance, and weight computed to a common average of 365 days. Results were: Lot 21 weighed 540 pounds at 199 days, had a gain of 2.46 while on dam. At each of the three gradings he was given a type score of 13. He weighed 640 pounds when started on the 140 days feeding test and wound up weighing 1005 pounds with a 2.61 pounds average daily gain. Lot 50 dropped*a’point in grade after being put on feed. Did 2.30 pounds per day while on dam; 2.68 pounds per day while on feed winding up at 1010 pounds. Some other Angus did about as well, however, animals show in their pedigree which are highly suspicious of being dwarfism carriers which is indeed a headache once the blood gets in a herd. Also there are a number of desirable ^Hereford bulls to be of fered in the sale which starts at noon today at Culpeper Enterprises. Lot 86 a Polled Hereford, for example: gained 2.29 pounds on dam, was given a type score of 14 at each grading, gained 3.39 pounds per day while on feed winding up at 1270 pounds and a lifetime gain of 2.36 pounds. He was calved Nov. 11, 1958 and bred by Kent and Harriet Loving of Stage Junction, Va.

News Farmers have until April 30, 1960 to file application for their incentive payments for wool and lambs sold during the 1959 marketing year which; ends March 31, the ASC office has announced. We would like to remind farmers that they must present properly executed bills of sale at the time they make application for payment at the ASC office. This sales record for shorn wool sold must include the signature of the buyer on the original, the ' number of pounds sold, and the exact amount of money received. The sales slip for unshorn lambs sold, besides the name and signature of the buyer, mu-t -how the number of lambs and the-: lire weight, and bear the descript.on “unshorn.” The applicattiojn for wool payment made al ter Ap; il 30 will be accepted only if farmers show that the reason for late filing was due to conditions beyond their control. Such reasons must be acceptable to the ASC county committee. 19S9 wool payment will be based on the average price producers received. Since this price will not be known until after June 1, payments to farmers will not commence until sometime around July. The 1959 incentive price is 62 cents per pound. Vo.-Ag. Shop Open To Farmers The V o c a t i <j> n al Agriculture Shop will be open two evenings each week beginning Thursday, March IS. The particular evenings which the shop will be open will be decided upon at the first meeting. The classes will be under the direction of the Instructor of Vocational Agriculture. C. B. Palmer who will be assisted by a Lay Instructor. This announcement comes somewhat later than was anticipated, due to weather conditions, but we; feel that there is plenty of time left in the school year for farmers in the community to get lots of needed jobs done. All interested parties are urged to be present at the first meeting so that any materials needed for proposed projecs may be secured by the fi 'st work night. This is an excellent opportunity for farmers to repair machinery, as well as construct needed equipment for the honne and farm.

What can the Christain citizen do to protect the morals of the American Youth?” Mr. Summerfield pointed out that there were three things clearly evident. 1. Demand that local, State and Federal Governments adopt legislation strengthening present laws and closing the loopholes through whith these racketeers operate. 2. Organize parents and other interested individuals of your church and community in speaking clearly on the subject, protesting where need be, filth found on local news stands or anywhere else. 3. Certainly, if you find any filth in your mail box take it to your Postmaster immediately, so that legal action con be brought against the offender. In the January issue of Royal Ser\ice, the official publication of the Woman’s Missionary l n'on of the Southern Baptist Convention, is a most enlightening article, “Filth In Your Mail Box”. The article containsvmany direct quotes from the Postmaster General, pointing to the seriousness of the situation which he feels will continue to get worse, unless vigorously checked.
