RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered u Second Clua Mail at the Poet Office at WuUnffcm, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) (2.60 PER YEAH Letter To The Editor Woodville Va. November 12, 1960 Rappahannock News Washington, Va. To The Editor: It is' my sincere hope that the Senior Senator from Virginia, whom your paper referred to as the “grinning little mountain climber,” does not take the Rappahannock News. However, I will be grateful if you will permit me to express my sentiments, as a citizen of the county, in an open letter to the Senator through your paper. Dear Senator Byrd: I feel that I can safely say that many of your loyal supporters in Rappahannock, had they been called upon to write the election report, would have stated that “although Nixon and Ixwlge carried Virginia, the Democrats carried the county” and the Nation without the blessing of a statesman who, even when the going is ‘tough’ never fails to stand firmly for his convictions and who places the Nation above questionable party politics.” His endorsement, due to the respect so many have for his wis_ will always put his Country before dom and their knowledge that he party, would have helped to give Senator Kennedy a larger majority. Regardless of the side we supported, we are proud that \ ivginia’s Senior Senator stood courageously by his convictions and did what he believed right any! by so doing made our faith stronger and our feeling of freedom more secure in the knowledge of having a Statesman fighting our political battles and not a Razzle-Dazzle Petty Politician, who seeks personal profit or political gain without regard to ultimate consequences. By comparison, we might even have gone so far as to casually inquire in the election report, if many of the readers remembered a day in July in the state of California, a supposedly responsible politician said, for all America to hear, that he could not accept his party’s platform, but since platforms were written to Run on and Not to Stand on, he would support it at that time? And at this time Senator, it may be just as well for me not to remember who said it. However, since I was not called upon to write the election report for the Rappahannock News, I am going to give this hot tip to you, exclusively!! This statement was made by a man with a loud and roaring voice who bellowed long and proudly, first of his impressive family connections and then the great state he represented and how firmly he believed in upholding her high principles. H is face was not one of a Grinning Mountain Climber, but a face of Deception and Evil. For your edification, dear Senator, we have a “grinning mountain climber” in Rappahannock to whom we are devoted, consequently it would be appreciated if you would accept the remark as a compliment and accept thanks from your joyal and grateful supporters for the good things you have done for our state. We hope too, that you will, for many more years be called a “mountain climber’’, and each time upon reaching the top and gazing in all directions over your beloved Virginia, the knowledge that you have played such a tremendous part in preserving her principles, will fill you with such pride and happiness that you will, indeed be our permanent grinning mountain climber. Sincerely yours, Claire W. Pauze * » * • Mr. Byrd docs indeed get the Rappahannock .\ eus each week gratis. I sincerely apologize to Mr. Johnson for a case of mistaken identity. Seems some folks thought he was being referred to, and / hai'c no idea of his political standings—Ed. Woodville, Va. November 10, 1960 To The Editor, Rappahannock News, Washington, Va. Dear Sir: As a transplanted Yankee but one with deep respect for the traditions of the South I was surprised and disturbed to read in this week’s issue, your slurring reference to one whom 1 thought nearly all Virginians held in high regard, your Senior Senator, Harry Hood Byrd. Possibly you meant it as a joke but I think many of your readers will fail to see the humour in the description you accord this leading conservative and defender of sound fiscal policy, “grinning little mountain climber.” 1 certainly thought it in very poor taste. B. H. Patterson The Driver’s Seat When you struggle through heavy weekend traffic and begin to regret that the automobile was ever invented your nerves and temper may be eased if you visualize the rosy picture traffic engineers predict for our automotive future. Highways of the future will be a pleasant prospect of smooth, uninterrupted travel, with no traffic jams, no intersections, and few accidents they tell us. Cars ot the future will be guided automatically, so the driver can take a nap, read a book, or play cards while his vehicle rolls smoothly along to its destination automatically following route guides built into the pavement.! Accidents will be almost nonexistent. auto engineers predict, because cars of the future will be equipped with radar-like devices to detect obstacles ahead and will steer around them or stop automatically. The driver won’t have to keep his eye on the road, because his car will have electronic “eyes’ to take over that task for him. Highways will be wear-resistant and require little maintenance oi repair. Magnetic route guides will be built into the highway surface All a driver has to do is pre-set hi; desired route on the electronic e quipment in his car, and the vehicle will'follow the correct guide lines in the roadways. The highways of the future wil be more colorful than they are to day.

That the County School Board of Rappahannock County, Virginia, record in its official minutes this statement of appreciation of the excellent and timely services rendered by Mr. Smith and that a copy of these resolutions be sent to Mrs. Smith and a copy to the Rappahannock News. Irvin R. Kilby, Chairman A COPY TESTE: Q. D. Casque, Clerk EXTRA - EXTRA By Ed Just didn’t feel extra-extra last week after being interested enough and if you please, stupid enough, to stay up all night T uesday watching election returns on TV as they were tabulated on the electronic computors, my get up and go almost got up and went Wednesday. But I made it by the hardest. • • ■ • One fellows sentiments on the election was “thank God they both couldn’t win!” • • • • A fellow nearby said he was almost afraid to drive into town in his Volkswagen Tuesday when he came to vote, but then he saw Bill walking down the street and fig. ured he was safe. * ' ** * . I am still trying to find out who it was that drew up a petition in 1928 for Rappahannock County to secede from the state after Virginia went Republican in the election that year. We are glad to welcome a new member to the “Court House Crowd’’. Eva Smith is now working part-time in the Clerk’s office. * • • * Quite a tew of the folks from Rappahannock attended the International Horse Show Friday. As some of them departed to head for home, their station wagon was brought from the parking area and they got into it only to discover they had the wrong one, which as it happened also belonged to a Rappahannockan. • * • • To anonymous letter writers: I have the you-know-what kind of fortitude to stand up for what 1 think, and I am perfectly at liberty (just as you are) to say what I think. I do not expect everyone to agree with me at all times. However, if you have something to say and are not man enough to sign your name to it, can it. Any unsigned letters sent to Rappahannock News can’t be printed and consequently go into file 13 (that’s the trash, in case you didn’t know). That is just what happened to the one received here Tuesday, November 8th. • • • • Learn to yield the right-of-way willingly even if the other person is wrong. It’s better to be slowed down than laid up. Deeds Recorded Piedmont Federal Savings and Loan Association to John A. Williams lot 2 containing 1.75 acre; Jackson District.
