Dental Clinic Needed Fcr Rappahannock Th»! Health Committee of the Rappahannock Teacher’s Association feels that there is a verv definite need to. a State Dental Clinic in Rappahannock County, as, during the past thirty years, there has seldom been a time when more than one-half of all the pupils in the county have had all necessary dental correctioas. The parents of many of our Rappahannock children are financially unable to pay the prevailing dental rates even if there were enough dentists in surrounding communities to take care of them. Since the average pupil’s yearly dental bill will range from twenty' to fifty ^dollars, it is easily seen why many families can not take care of the entire cost of their needed dental work. In the past three years an interested group of P.T.A.: members has made several efforts to secure a dentist for the county, but these efforts were unsuccessful. The estimated cost to the county of a State Dental Clinic is $275 a month, payable quarterly. This amount, however, could he more or less depending on the amount of free work i done. Fifty rents is charged for" each correction. The total amount thus collected is subtracted from the c#st of the clinic, and the remaining amount is divided by two; the County’ pays onehalf. Judging by dental clinics in other counties, and allowing 10% for free work, the usual cost to the county is about $.1,300 for 12 months. A private source has agreed to pay one-half of the county’s share <pf the $3,300. That leaves approximately $1,650 to be raised by our P.T.A.’s, civic organizations and civic minded individuals throughout the county. If we want this clinic in operation by the time school opens next fall, we must notify the State Director of Dental Services to this effect by June. Since our share of the money' is pait3 quarterly, tbe countv’s payments will be spread out through the year. The clinic (for which high school pupils are not eligible) is for dentally indigent children only, that is. only those pupils wo can not pay the prevailing dental rates. It will be up to the principal and - teachers of each school to select these children. The dentist in charge has had the same training, and has passed the same examination required by State law. as the dentists with private practices, He will work from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in a vacant room in each elementary school center, and he will have up-to-date portable equipment. He will do fillings, extractions, cleaning and flouridc.no orthodonics. Each chihl will be examined, and an es■ timate will be sent to the parents, before any work is done. The principal of the school in which the dentist is working vvll cooperate at all times with him and will also be in a position to know how well the clinic is being operated. If any individual, or any group of individuals, would like further information concerning the clinic, get in touch with Mrs. Frances Thornton, our County Health Nurse or Mrev Mary Quaintartce, the Chairman of the Health Committee of the Rappahannock Teachers Association. Four-Car Crash In Front Royal Property damages of more than $2,000 resulted from a four-car collision on South Royal Avenue in Front Royal on Friday evening, March 18 about 6:30. Tlie dim er of an automob le which striick two parked cars and the rear end of a moving one suffered a cut mouth and lost several teeth. 1 Police identified him as Charles Edward Corder, 33, of Hurttlv who was {driving a 1957 Ford sedan owned by Gerald Wymer.

A PnHic Library For Rappahannock For many years the people of Rappahannock have looked forward to the day when our County would have a library.a comfortable reading room which would provide -reference works and good books for the education and recreation of the people. A unique set of circumstances has brought this particular dream within our grasp and a temporary committee has been organized to place the plan for a county library before the people and enlist their help and support for this new community venture. The County has also felt a great need for a place where the historical documents, pictures and mementoes which trace the history of Rappahannock County, now treasured unseen in many homes, could be placed on exhibit for the benefit of residents and visitors. In the changing affairs of families, all too often such valuable records airud keepsakes are lost or destroyed, or passed on to disinterested people who do not appreciate them. Recently it was announced that the old red brick Presbyterian Church., on Gay Street in Washington, which had been standing empty for so many years, was to be placed on sale by the owners. What better site could be found in all Rappahannock for a library?

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING . v At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia t TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 28S3 V basil C. BURKE, JR. Owner ys MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as Second Class Mall at the Poet Office at Washington, Ya. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance).$2.50 PER YEAR YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS f>\ Rrf>. Hurr P. Harriton Washington—Although immigration legislation pends continuously in the Congress, our national policy on the admission of aliens has not been a major active controversy for some years. The present basic immigration lavy. the Walter McCarran Act, was enacted in 1952. In vetoing that act, President Truman urged a much more liberal policy which would drop the “national origins” formula and permit a share increase in immigration from southern and eastern Europe and from Asia. In addition, Mr. Truman urged Congress to supplement the annual immigration quota of approximately 150. <XH) aliens by admitting 300,000 additional persons over a three-year period. The Congress, however, rejected Mr. Truman's recommendations by passing the Walter-Mc Carran Act over his veto, and it remains the basic immigration statute. Thr following year, at the urgir|4 of President Eisenhower, Congress voted temporary authority for the admission of up to 205,000 refugees. Now President Eisenhower has revived the immigration controversa r\ in a special message to Congress in which he asks not a temporary but a permanent doubling of the annual quotas in other words, 'the admission of approximately 300,000 quota immigrants every year. Mr. Eisenhower also urges that 'quotas not filled' by a country be distributed among nations which oversubscribe their quotas. As the countries of northern and western Europe rarely use up their allotments of immigrants, this feature of the President s plan would be of particular interist to the countries of southerrt and eastern Europe and the Middle and Far East. Those areas would benefit, too, from Mr. Eisenhower’s proposal to drop the national origins idea which, briefly, bases immigration quotas on the number of citizens of a particular national background who were here in lf)20. In practice, this formula favors immigration from (Jreat Hritain, (lermany, and Ireland. Mr. Eisenhower would change the system in this way, as he explained in his message: “Abandonment of the concept / of race and ethnic classifications w/hin our population, at least for the purpose of the increases in quotas I have recommended, by substitution as the base for computation the number of immigrants actually accepted from each area between 1924 and 1959. In other words, the increase in the quota for Italy, for example, would not be based upon a percentage of a so-called Italian ethnic group within our country, but upon a percentage of actual immigration from Italy between 1924 and 1959.” In considering the pros and cons of immigration legislation, it should be kept in mind that thousands of persons enter the country legally each year for permanent residence outside the quotas. For example, there are no quota limitations on immigration from the countries of Latin America. Spouses and children of American citizens also may come in without regal'd to quotas. Among Mr. Eisenhower’s other recommendations are the dropping of the present 2,000 annual limit on quota immigration from countries of the Asiatic-Pacific area and a liberal policy on admitting “many thousands” of refugees over and above the quotas for thejiv countries. He pointed out that thi^ has been designated “World Ref\ ugee Year”, and the United States is joining with 68 other nations “in an attempt to seek permanent solutions for the problems, of these peoples.” ... in setting forth his views on the responsibility of the United States to . accept more immigrants, Mr. Eisenhower commented: “No analytical study can so dramatically demonstrate its position in the world as the simple truth thatihere, more than in any other place;' hundreds of thousands of people each year seek to enter and establish their homes and raise their children. “To the extent possible, without dislocating the lives of those alreadv licing here, this flow- of imnngraton to this country must be encouraged.” Mr. Eisenhower's message met the immediate opposition of the leading authority on immgration law in the omgress, Rep. Francis F.. Walter of Pennsylvania, principal author of the existing basiclaw and chairman of the House Immigration Subcommittee, who pointed out: “If we were to consider the President's proposal seriously, we would find that its enactment would raise the present annual average of immigrants entering this country from 260,000 to 500,000. "Our present annual immigration quota is 154,000, but the actual number of immigrants who $2.50 PER YEAR RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Date_ NAME — -. R, F.

Letter To The bditor Mrs. Sarah Latham, Editor Rappahannock News Washington, Virginia Dear Mrp. Latham: In recent years, more especially in 1960, various citizens of the county have approached me in person, by telephone, by letter, etc., presenting ideas of ways and means of improving Rappahannock County. To me, this growing attitude is wonderful. Your paper can help air some of these ideas, plus a few of my own, among our citizens. No doubt there are other ideas of how we can improve the county, as well as the status of every individual, which should be recognized. One way of getting these ideas planned and activated would be to organize, under some catchy name, having possibly 75 to 100 elected citizens as members, of the countywide parent organization. Feeling the need and wanting to do something are fliusts if such is ever to become a reality. Under this parent organization could be set up special interest committees to work on the county goals selected by the over-all group. Rased on ideas already underway, or suggested, special interest committees might be: 1. Rappahanijock Industrial Development Committee. Such a committee poschants, bankers, barbers, automobile dealers, real estate agents, etc. Of course a temporary committee \is already established. 2. Health and Welfare Committee.

Feel sure he’ll want some help and expressions. How about it Jim Bill? 4. Recreation Development Committee. Rappahannock’s greatest existing asset is her natural, beauty and this offers many possibilities. 5. Water Resources Committee. More information is needed on underground watersupply.

Could be such would enhance the beauty, provide fishing, boating, maybe even a more dependable source of water for our county seat.

LIBRARY Continued from page one landmark be preserved for the community than to make it the permanent repositors for the historical records of the county? Built in 1SS8, it was perfectly suitable architecturally and ideally situated for the purposes. An examination of the building revealed that it was still sound and could be renovated and made to serve the community for many years to come. This information sent a group of interested people exploring in many directions. How extensive and costly would renovation be? Could money be raised for its purchase and repair? Could volunteers be found to establish and service a library' to qualify for whatever benefits were available from the State? Could enough books and exhibits be found to get it started ? First results were so enthusiastic and heartening that the Rappahannock Library Committee was formed to serve until an official board could be assembled. This Temporary Committee raised sufficient funds to purchase the building on February 19th at a cost of $2,600. This is only the first step. We have the building and the purpose. The Committee this week starts on the second step: the formation of the official organization and the drive to raise funds for the restoration of the building. Detailed plans will be announced within a few weeks. Your interest and help will be welcomed. Pennsylvania Evergreen Seedlings We have the best for Xmas Trees Pines.
