An all male jury fourid Milton Dodson, Jr. of Sperryville guilty of the malicious shooting of Mrs. Frances Conners, Woodville, when he was tried in Rappahannock County Circuit Court Tuesday. Dodson was given the maximum sentence, 20 years. Mrs. Conners was shot in the chest at close range, January 26, 1961 when Dodson forced his way into her home after walking four miles through deep snow. The bullet severed the nerves- of Mrs. Conners spinal cord, leaving her paralyzed for life from the waist down. Acting as council for the accused, John J. Dwyer of Huntly, presented the case as an accidental shooting which occurred when Dodson transferred a gun he had on his person from one pocket to another. Dodson was already on probation with a suspended sentence of one year, for throwing stones at Emory Conners, husband of the shooting victim, as he drove along the highway on a tractor. He had been ordered by the court to stay away from the Conners place. The Commonwealth attempted to prove the shooting occurred as the result of a jealous rage when Mrs. Conners spurned Dodson after a romance with him. According to testimony and evidence, a number of letters, presented, Mrs. Conners and Dodson had carried on a lengthy affair. Page Higenbothem of Orange was Mrs. Conner’s attorney. George H. Davis, Jr. is Commonwealth for Rappahannock. Judge R. V. Snead presided in the court. .

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING t At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH G. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington. Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance).12.50 PER YEAR Letter To The Editor Embassy of Israel Washington, D. C. The lEditor Rappahannock News Washington, Virginia Dear Sir: In view of the profound significonce and the general interest in the Eichmann trial, permit me to comment oil your editorial of April 13. The main point )bu raise is that a man must be tried in the place where he committed his crimes, under the American system of law. 1. The London Agreement and Charter of August 1945, which was subscribed to by the United States Government, defines Nazi crimes as of “no specific geographic location.” The “territoriality jurisdiction ” principle, therefore, does not apply in the case of war crimes, as it did not apply in tbe cases of the American Military Court and the British Military Court, which tried war criminals in various countries for crimes committed in various other countries. 2. Eichmann’s alleged crimes were not, as you state, committed in Garmany. They were committed in a dozen or more different countries, in all of which he could be made accountable to a war _ crimes tribunal.. However, he is in Israel territory-, as are 200,000 survivors and potential witnesses of the “Final Solution,” and the - most extensive documentation on Nazi war crimes in existence. It is also a principle of common law applied in the United States too, that in existing criminal jurisdiction the courts are not concerned with the manner in which the accused was brought before the court. In conclusion, the distinguished German journal, Die IVelt, has written searchingly concerning procedural arguments.; “It is useless, too, to discuss the opinions of those who belabour the procedural inconveniences and oddities of this trial in order to help them close their minds against its content. How tethered to formalities, how heartless indeed, is the thinking of people who measure the worth or worthlessness of. this trial by memely outward circumstances...” Yours sincerely, E. Z’ev Sufott First Secretary Interest In Essay Contest Interest is being shown in the essay contest on the subject “The Foundation of American Greatness,” being sponsored by the Rappahannock Farm Bureau for high school students. In announcing the contest, a number of references were suggested. As some of those interested in writing an essay have not been able to secure these books, the RFB is „ having them placed in the high school library. Mrs. C. E. Johnson, Jr., Chairman of the essay contest, visited the school recently and talked to the students. Other members of the committee are Mrs. John H. Williams, and Miss Anna Ruth Barnette. The essays must be inr the hands of the Essay Committee by Julyl. Boxes, Magazines.... What’s The Diff? There has been some discussion at our house as to whether “Reformed Litterbug” is an apt pen name for me. When I point out that in the interest of safety, all of the magazines 5 have been removed from the steps, I hear “but where are they? Upstairs in the attic creating a big fire hazard. As I see it,” he says, “the biggest hazard to safety is the waves’ instinct to keep everything__.old get well cards, letters, boxes,” which brings me to the “box closet.” The biggest controversy at home is the box closet, where I have thriftily saved boxes of all sizes and descriptions. I know I may need them next Christmas; my friends may need them for shower presents, etc. “But you didn’t need them last Christmas,” he says, “and everything you buy comes in boxes.” There is no answer to this, so in the interest of safety, 1 have sacrificed the boxes. However, I have noted in the interest of research that the things men save are bolts, nuts, nails, and screws which create a big storage problem, but as my husband points out, “WON’T BURN.” It is spring. Let us get rid of the accumulation of the winters. I have come to the conclusion that it is better to be safe than to be worried. “Reformed Litterbug” Local store PITTS DRIVE-IN THEATRE CULPEPER, VIRGINIA ONE SHOW ONLY 8:00 P. M.

News For Veterans Emergency treatment of veterans in private hospitals may be paid for by the Veterans Administration only when the medical care is for a service-connected condition, and the medical emergency must have been such that an attempt to procure admission to a VA hospital would have endangered the life of the veteran. The VA may assume full medical responsibility in such Cases only if the emergency treatment is reported to the nearest VA hospital or office within 72 hours after the veteran’s admission to the private hospital. Claims for unauthorized medical treatment may still be paid by the VA, even if the VA is not promptly notified of the emergency, if the veteran submits proof that the emergency required him to be taken to the nearest private hospital for treatment of the service-connected condition pnd he could not wait to be admitted to a VA hospital. The VA cannot pay private hospital bills for veterans who elect to receive treatment in non-VA facilities as a matter of choice rather than necessity. Edward M.
