Proposed County Budget Contemplates Change In Tax Levy Rate Six Inch Snow On Luray Mountain While a cold rain, much more than an April shower, beat down on most of Rappahannock Sunday evening and early Monday morning, Mother Nature was busy smearing a white frosting on the mountain tops. M. H. Brady of the Highway Department, reported a six inch snow fall on top of the Luray Mountain at Panorama, extending down to Beech Spring above Sperryville, where a couple of inches fell. Two department employees, Roy Atkins and Lee Atkins, both of Sperryvillfe, worked with a truck and scraper all night on the mountain, keeping the highway clear and passable. They began about 9 p.m. Sunday and remained until 4 a.m. Monday morning. The men declared they had never seen it snow much harder. Along the edge of the road and guard rails, the wet heavy snow was banked two and three feet deep where the plow had piled it up. Traffic was not hindered on the Front Royal Mountain, though, it was also snow covered and with the present low temperatures is remaining that way.

Of much interest (or should be) :o all citizens of Rappahannock County, is the forth coming meeting of the County Board of Supervisors, scheduled for May 10, 1961 to consider the proposed Budget for the year ending June 30, 1962. The Tentative Budget was published in the Rappahannock News, April 5th. Section 15 1577 of the Code of Virginia requires that notice • of. this meeting be given the tax payers and it is hoped that many will show their approval of the democratic way of conducting the affairs of the county by—studying the budget.coming to the meeting and letting the members of the County Board of Supervisors know what and how they think and feel about it. At the end of the Tentative Budget published last week, we read, “The above proposed budget DOES CONTEMPLATE x , change in the $3.25 county-wide ,. levy rate to $3.50 ’’ It has been suggested that x break down of some of the itemswould help the tax payer to under stand better just where his tax > dollar goes.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 28B1 BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM. Managing Editor Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance)....$2.50 PER YEAR THE EICHMANN AFFAIR With a bizarre international kidnapping by Jewish secret agents as a beginning, with an ex-post facto law as a basis, the Adolph Eichmann trial opened yesterday in Israel. And although its background is one of mass murder and incredible cruelty, and although a roan is in jeopardy of his life with no chance for an aquittal, the trial is receiving billing here in the United States similar to that of an opening night on Broadway. The design behind all this ballyhoo is rathey obvious. Curiously enough in the many arguements pro and con, whether the kidnapping should invalidate the trial, whether the crime is based on an ex-post facto law (here we set a precedent with the Nuremburg trials,) the one issue that seems to us of utmost importance has gone by unnoticed. That is, the question of venue. Under our system of law, a man must be tried in the place where he committed a crime. In Virginia, venue is limited to the county or corporation in which the crime occurred; in Federal courts, it is the Federal district in which the offense was perpetrated. Adolph Eichmann, however, is standing trial in Israel for violation of the laws of Israel for acts he committed in Germany. This is a startling precedent to establish. Our tacit approval of it is no small matter. If we condone this procedure, what objection could we raise to the Russians kidnapping an American and trying him in Russia under Russian law for an act done in the United States. Consider for a moment, that the act need not necessarily be a crime m America. It only need be a violation of the Russian criminal code. When viewed in this light the Eichmann affair takes on a different aspect. Regardless of the culpablity of the prisoner, or the magnitude of his crime, dangerous precedents should not be created or condoned, for dangerous precedents have a way of returning to haunt their creators. ttC-B.Jr. Candy Recipe Popular During The Civil War Lourmma Moffett Peach Leather 1. Select well ripened perfect peaches. 2. Skin them. They will skin if they are thoroughly ripe and you are careful. The best part of the peach is next to'^the skin. 3. Mash f 4. Put in a little sugar and a few sticks of cinnamon. A few strips of sasafras roots that you gathered in the spring for making tea will take the place of the cinnamon if you have none. 5. Mix with the peach pulp and cook over slow fire stirring constantly until very thick and you think well done. Do not let it stick to bottom of the pan. Remove cinnamon sticks or sasafras. 6. Spread on drying boards about one half inch thick and cover with thin cloth to protect from insects and place in sun to dry like cherries and other fruits. 7. ('When about the consistency of gum drops cut in small squares, sprinkle with sugar, pack in stone jars and cover securely. You should be particularly careful about your drying boards. Poplar is a good wood to make them from. Pine is not, as pine is a very highly flavored wood. A Christmas story illustrates that. Once Santa Claus, during the Civil War, used peach leather for all the children’s stockings, causing “Little Hunt Miller” of Poplar Shade to ask, “Did Santa Claus bring this peach leather?” Opon being assured that he had, he proceeded to ask every member of the family the same question. When they all gave him the same answer he said with a mighty sigh, “Well, I guess Santa Clau$ did bring this peach leather—but he dried it on Ma’s old board.” Boston News Mrs. Alice Dorsey Mr. and Mrs. Virginus Weaver had as their guests for the weekend her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Johnson of Alexandria.

Jltim'l 2>e*t By C. B. Palmer The Rappahannock Lions Club, •at their last meeting, was host to all of the clubs in their zon.e. The meeting was held in the Amissville Fire Hall and a delightful meal was served by a group of local ladies. The meeting was called to order by Zone^Chairman, Sid Lanier, who noted that we were honored by the presence of Lion Fred Plitt, District Governor of District 24A. The chief order of business was a very comprehensive review of what had been done in the past year. The following is a listvof part of the accomplishments 06 the clubs in the zone. One hundred per cent of the clubs participated in the care program; one hundred per cent of the clubs participated in the eye bank program.. The , greater part of the clubs have contributed to the fund used iin the now famous Glaucoma case. There were many other programs that were carried on and all of which are certainly worth while in areas of community improvement. The secretary of each visiting club gave a report on; what his club had done or was doing on a local level. We might add that the report of the Rappahannock Club was as glowing as any club of proportionate size. There was also quite an interesting discussion on what the various clubs were doing to earn money. Fruit cake sales and broom sales seemed to be well received by all communities, so it seems that Rappahannock isn’t the only community that eats good fruit cake. • • • • Students at Detroit’s Radford High School have christened one of their water fountains Old Faceful.

April—Ground Hog Control Month February 2nd is Ground Hog Day, however April is the best month to rid your farms of this pest. Foliage is not out thereby making it easier to locate the dens. Also dens now being used by groundhogs have fresh loose earth at their entrances. This is an excellent way of knowing a ground hog is using the den; he has done his spring cleaning. Above all - you’ll not want to kill a wild animal that is your friend so watch for the fresh earth ground hog sign. Remember mouse infestation is at an all-time high. Brer Fox and Mr. Skunk, both den using animals, are two of the best natural (jnousers we have. Also they feed on grubs which damage desirable plants.

Pork shortages are quite low compared to a year ago, and there is optimism in the trade for higher farm prices. When the spring seasonal peak in slaughter passes in the next few weeks, prices should start seasonally up, but the gain to mid-summer will be moderate. For the longer pull, it looks as ' if prices will be pretty good for the rest of the year. Most experts are predicting hogs will average about $16 by late fall which would not be as good as in late 1960. Producers in the 10 Midwest com states say they plan to farrow eight per cent more sows in the March-May period and five per cent more in the June-August period. If they don’t exceed these figures, hog prices ought to be pretty fair. nogs in Kicnmono were cringing $17.50 to $18.50 last week, and Virginia auction markets averaged $18.10. Southeast Virginia markets were $17.25 to $18, Western markets $17.50 to $18.25 and Baltimore $18.75 to $19.

Each :tcw member drew' the name of an older member and was instructed to go to this member if she had any problem or questions concerning FHA. Plans have been made for carrying out a school safety and beautification project. One of the highlights of the FHA year was Rena Pullen winiving the State Cherry Pie Contest and thus becoming Virginia’s representative at the National contest in Chicago.
