The "courtroom was full with standing room only and more people overflowed down the steps into the hall below. Gen. Daniel Noce, chairman of the Planning and Zoning Committee, conducted the difficult meeting in an admir able manner, recognizing each one present who desired to be heard. Law provides that a county may appoint a planning Commission, an agency of the Board of Supervisors. The Rappahannock agency is composed of Gen Noce, C. E. Johnson, Jr., L. B. Stuart, J. Newbill Miller, H. S. Barksdale. Present for the meeting were Mr. George Long Executive Secretary of the League of Virginia C o u n t ie s and Mr. Rich ard Dynes, Division of Industrial Development and Planning. The general consensus of opinions expressed was that the county needed some regula tions, but those set forth in the proposed zoning ordinance in fringed too deeply on the rights of landowners and residents, and that if adopted would impede progress and development or curtail it entirely rather than help the county to develop in an orderly, safe, secure and healthy manner. Some few deemed the proposed regulations as good. Br-r-r-, ‘the good ole Winter TimeP Rappahannock is caught in the icy grip of winter with temperatures ranging from 10 below zero to slightly above freezing. Four inches of snow fell Saturday making driving hazardous and occasional piercing winds have added to the discomfort of the season. Crowds of skiiers jammed Skyline Ski Area over the weekend as skiing conditions were near perfect Sunday. A total of a thousand skiiers and spectators we re at the area Sunday. The groundhog saw his shadow here Tuesday so don’t put away any winter clothes and keep the snow shovel handy for the next six weeks. Strasburg, Woodstock and Monerey. The Flint Hill plant was :losed for a short time but re-opened Dec. 14th. Rappahannock County is celebrating its 162nd anniversary this week. It is among the younger counties of the Commonwealth having been part of Culpeper County before its establishment in 1833. Pictured above is the tavern which was owned and operated by Miss Anne M. Coxe in 1833 where the first Commissioners of the Peace for the newly formed County of Rappahannock took their oath of office. They were, according to the first entry in the minute book for Rappahannock, as follows: William A. Lane, Thomas Spindle, Charles Shackelford, John Turner, French Strother, Gabriel Parkes, James Green, Daniel Mason, William Walden, George Deatherage, Burwell 'K. Wood, Robert Eastham, John D. Browning, James Menefee, Thomas Walden, William Slaughter, Howard F. Thornton, Henry R. Menefee, Dawson I. Burgess, Reuben Slaughter, Willis Browning, Elijah Amiss, Addison Turner, Alexander H. Spilman, and John R. Browning. It ceased to he a tavern in the early 1950’s and is now the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Walker. Architects consider this a prime example of early American architecture as it has remained basicly unchanged throughout the years. V mostly from the stand point of beautification of the county by rigid regulations on size and kind of construction. It was pointed out that an entire county could not be zoned as an agriculture district, which the ordinance maintains, and that house trailers could not be put in a trailer zone when there is no trail er zone specified. In a (letter from Commonwealth’s Attorney George H. Davis, Jr. who was absent due to a previous appointment to the Planning Commission, he stated “that the purpose of the statute is for orderly pro. gress in the development and growth of the county, not for the purpose of maintaining the status quo. It appears that the proposed zoning ordinance tends to maintain^ the status quo, rather than provide for the present and future require ments of Rappahannock County The next meeting ofcthe Rappahannock Planning'fiKommis sion is set for March. A transcription of the recorded meeting has not been made; available but when it is a more detailed report will be presented the public by the paper, j Jenkins Family Burned Out On the cold, cloudy, threatening afternoon of Monday, February 1, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry B.

Pen J ■ By Doris Daugherty Blankets are for warmth! Not many years ago, only a wool blanket provided this most necessary quality. Today, many blankets made entirely or partly of man-made fibers give satisfactory warmth. Warmth depends on the ability of a fabric to act as an insulator. Still air trapped in the cloth protects from cold drafts and keeps body heat from escaping too rapidly for comfort. The kind of fiber, the nap, the. construction, and the way the blanket is cared for all contribute to its warmth—or lack of it! Fibers mainly used for winter blankets are wool rayon,nylon, and theacrylicsorlon and acrilan. By law, manufacturers are required to give the fiber content of blankets on the label. Blankets perform like the major fiber. Low percentages of fibers are often misleading because the amount of fiber if too low to give the desirable qualities. Wool is high in warmth qualities, and easily napped (high nap provides warmth because of dead air space). Wool blankets may be treated for resistance to moth damage and resistance to shrinkage. Improper laundering can ruin a good wool blanket. Wool it usually moderate to high in , , Rayon blankets are usually low in price and they are fluffy and attractive when new. The warmth of rayon blankets decreases, however, due to crushing and loss of nap during use, laundering, and cleaning. Rayon blankets also shrink lengthwise and stretch crosswise. Acrylics are highly resistant to shrinkage during laundering. They give warmth with less weight. They are resistant to moth damage, and retain their original appearance after proper laundering. Acrylics are moderate to high in price. Nylon fiber is usually used in blends with other fibers to giVe added strength. Price is not always a reliable guide for blanket quality. Research shows the lower cost blankets had a good appearance when new, but many did not retain this appearance after washing. Blanket bindings usually are made of nylon or rayon. Good bindings are firmly woven. Nylon bindings are more re STOP! At This Sign | • Design*! for today's . ... > and tomorrows' most powerful i ears. - - ATLANTIC Smrviem Statioa •MUtRYVILLE. VA. J.

The end of the binding should have enough folded under to prevent raveling. Machine stitching used to finish raw ends is less expensive than bindings. Household Hints •Serve frozen fruits as soon a6 they are thawed. They will look and taste much better than if held after thawing. •Don’t use a pesticide in your home if the label says a gas mask is required. •It is not necessary to continue ironing a dampened garment until it is bone dry—especially around zippers.plackets, and other multiple layers of fabric. After pressing, hang the garment carefully to airdry before putting it away. •it's easier to iron large pieces if you reverse the board’s position so the iron can be placed on the narrow, pointed end at your right. This leaves the broad, square end free for maximum working space. •Iron wools and dark cottons on the wrong side to avoid a shiny finish. Pockets and other thick areas may be touched up on the right side under a press cloth. •A handy substitute for a' sleeve board is a rolled or, folded towel. To “iron” a puffed sleeve, remove the shade from a table lamp and turn on the light bulb. Put the damp sleeve over the hot bulb and pull it slowly until wrinkles disappear.

Groups Sponsor ‘RD Alert’ Twenty-one Tuberculosis Associations and eight Pharmaceutical Associations in Virginia are sponsoring an educational campaign during February called “RD Alert”. Thirty-nine of the 40 drug stores are taking part in this area in making RD month a big one. Leaflets are being distributed by pharmacists and their clerks to alert the public to the fact that Chronic Cough and Shortness of breath are two early signs of respiratory diseases. “Unusual shortness of breath is a sign that something may be wrong with your lungs^or maybe your heart. Shortness of breath after little or no exertion may mean bronchitis ... asthma... emphysema... heart disease.. .or other serious disorders.” “Chronic cough could be something minor. But it could also be bronchitis. . . asthma . . .lung cancer. . .tuberculosis. . . other, serious Respiratory Diseases. These diseases can be treated if found early. But they may resist treatment and lead to and a special meeting of the State Mental Health Study Commission.

Deer Kill Declines East of Blue Ridge The Virginia deer kill east Df the Blue Ridge for the 1964 -65 season totaled 19,481, nearly a 30% drof) from the 27,119 killed in this section the previous season according to Game Commission tag returns. Combined with the 11,645 killed during the twoweek western season it brought the total harvest for the state to 31,126. This is the fifth consecutive year in which the state deer kill topped 30,000. On the basis of more restrictive regulations which limited doe shooting to the last 5 days of the season over most of Piedmont Virginia, biologists were predicting a reduced eastern kill of around' 20,000 animals.

Visible License Report Studied t The Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries took no positive action at its meeting January 22 on the suggestion that Virginia adopt a visible hunting license after hearing a rather un-eneouraging report compiled from 10 states that now use the system. The Commission did agree, however, to discuss the matter further at some future meeting with representatives of the Virginia Wildlife Federation and the Virginia Division of the Izaak Walton League of Ameri ca who made the original request. The general concensus of the 10 states polled was that the license was considered a nuisance by hunters, that it was not of measurable value in preventing trespass, and i could encourage laxity in check ing hunting licenses.

Woodard \ Virginia Senators Give Views On Annual Federal Budget rouowing is a statement Dy Senator Harry F. Byrd on subject of the Annual Federal Budget! I predict the President’s Budget Message Monday will request new spending authority (appropriations, etc.) in excess of $100 billion for Fiscal Year 1966. This wouldbeadded to nearly $100 billion of unspent balances in appropriations enacted in prior years. If Congress grants more than $100 billion in new 1966 requests, agencies of the Federal Government would be authorized to spend $200 billioa Under present procedures Congress enacts spending authority in the form of appropriations, backdoor spend ing, etc. Much of this spending authority is made available for more than one year, but Congress does not exert control over actual expenditures to be made in each fiscal year. It is annual expenditures (not appropriations) as compared with annual revenue which determine whether there is to be a deficit or surplus. Unexpended balances, over which Congress generally exercises no annual control, have increased in six consecutive years, and I predict they will rise again in the coming Miss James Weds Mr. Geer at Home The marriage of Miss Agnes Reba James, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Norvel James of Viewtown, to John Geer, Jr. took place at the home of the bride on Thursday everting, January 28, 1965. Mr. Geer is the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Geer of Charlottesville. The double ring ceremony was performed at nine o’clock by the Rev. Charles Kindred, pastor of Amissville Baptist Church. / The bride was given in marriage by her brother Julian James of Culpeper.Her street length gown was of white embroidered organza over taffeta designed with a fitted bodice and full skirt with unpressed pleats. The neckline and bracelet length sleeves were edged in pearls. The shoulder length veil of imported silk fell from a scalloped crown of pearls and crystals. She carried a bouquet of white rosebuds and lily of the valley. Miss Marion Click of Woodstock was maid of honor. She wore a gown of pink taffeta and carried a bouquet of white rosebuds. Acting as best man was James Geer of Charlottesville, brother of the bridegroom. Guests included Mr. and Mrs. John Geer and daughters Linda and Nancy of Charlottesville, Misses Shirley Bunch, Carol Emerson, Linda Hicks, Judy Turner, Janice Click, Mary Taylor, Susie Payne, and Margaret Perkins, all classmates of the bride at Madison College, Ha rrisonburg, ■ The couple will make their home in Charlottesville, but the bride will complete her year’s studies at Madison College. iiscal year. There have been five consecutive deficits; and I predict another deficit in the coming fiscal vear. The federal debt has gone up $30 billion in these five years, and it now stands at $318 billion; and I predict it will go higher There is need for Congress to exercise more effective control over annual expenditures as well as appropriations. To do this its appropriation process should be tightened up not only by placing an annual limit on each expenditure account, but also by providing itself and the public a better look at the budget as a whole and in detail, as compared with estimated revenue. Under present procedures the President sends his budget requests to Congress; Congress splits the requests into a dozen or more separate appropriation bills; each of these bills is considered by a different subcommittee; these bills ultimately are brought to the respective floors of House and Senate for passage at different times over a period of months; neither Congress nor the public sees the budget as whole in the appropriation process. The fact is that under these appropriation procedures — wnich do not provide for direct limitation on annual expenditures, and afford no consideration of the budget as a whole -- Congress does not know whether it is authorizing a deficit, balancing the budget or developing a surplus. ii mere is a aeiicit in hiscal Year 1966, beginning next July 1, the Federal Government of the United States will have operated in the red for 30 of 36 years, and there will have been six consecutive deficits since fiscal year 1960. There is need for fiscal reform in both the Executive and the Legislative Branches. In view of the facts as they exist I have prepared for introduction in the Senate Mon-, day, or shortly thereafter, a resolution to facilitate control over the annual rate of federal expenditures, and to relate expenditures to bfe* authorized to estimate revenue for the year. The resolution would amend Senate and House rules with respect to the appropriation process. A summary follows. Under present procedures Congress acts on spending authorizations, such as appropriations, but where funds are available for more than one year it does not limit annual expenditures under the authorizations. Under the resolution, Congress would put an annual expenditure limitation against 'all expenditure authorizations, including current appropriations, unexpended bah ances, back door spending items, etc. Under present procedures Congress acts on appropriations, as such, in a dozen or so appropriation bills which are brought before it at differ ent times over a period of months. Under the resolution all expenditure authorizations, along with expenditure limitations, would be brought together under the cover of one Money Saving Service Special AT HOFFMAN IMPLEMENT SERVICE \ FREE Pickup & .Delivery ON YOUR TRACTOR We will plok up your tractor or other piece of major farm equipment fr6e °* C^iar^e (*ur^nfi» January and February for the needed shop service that will save hours of costly delays later this spring_ when time is important.... when time saved can mean the difference between profit and loss. GENUINE JOHN DEERE PARTS FACTORY TRAINER MECHANICS TNI LATEST TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT Hoffman Implement Service E "SERVICE WHIN YOU NEED IT” 120 W. Culpeper St. Phone 825-2781 Culpeper, Va. Sen. Robertson Senator Robertson, Democrat of Virginia last week cited the mounting interest on the public debt as the most easily understood measure of how General Expenditure Authorization Bill.* Under present procedures each of the numerous appropriation bills iS* accompanied by its own Committee Report giving the explanation and justification for the items in that group of authorizations. Under the resolution there would be a single report and, along with other information it would tabulate all items as to both new authorizations and expenditure limitations, with grand totals. It is the total of actual expenditures in a fiscal year (not expenditure author izations enacted) against annual revenue which determines whether there is a deficit or surplus. The resolution would require the Secretary of the Treasury to stiEmit a revised estimate of revenue at each stage of the legislative process on the single money bill. In short, the resolution would provide Congress and the court try with an itemized list -- in one place -- of all expenditure items in the budget, with a total, along with the latest revenue estimate. 1 This is simple, fundamental information which is required for orderly and intelligent action on federal fiscal legislation. It is not available under present appropriation procedures. The resolution would require no change in committee organization. The single bill would be divided into titles corresponding to the separate bills under current procedures. Each of the titles would be considered by the sub-committee which now has jurisdiction over the presently corresponding bill, and the sub-committee chairman would manage the title on the Floor. government spending has beer increasing in recent years. The Senator recalled that when he was elected to the House in 1932 the entire Federal budget was less than one - third of the amount now required for the one item of interest on the public debt. In 1932 the interest on the debt was only $599,277,000. In fiscal year 1966, commencing next July, interest on the debt is estimated at $11,500,000,000. Senator Robertson’s statement follows; ‘Mr. President: While every Member of Congress would like to see the day when there is none in this country who is ill-housed; ill-clothed, or illfed, we should frankly face up to the fact that the so-called war on poverty is of the same nature as the war described by King Solomon in the 8th Verse of the 8th Chapter of Ecclesiastes, in which he said; ’and there is no discharge in that war’. “Years ago, the chief editorial writer of the Hearst papers, Arthur Brisbane, correctly summarized the fact that the poor we will have with us always, when he saic ‘As long as. there are mer with poor mrnds, there will be poor people.’ ‘In the opinion of one financial paper, published ir the city of New York, the best picture of what the current program will cost is pre sented by the cash bookkeeping budget which will show that spending in the nextfiscal year will amount to $127.4 billion, a rise of $6 billior over the present fiscal year, That paper continues to say: ‘In other words, the government now accounts for close to a quarter of the nation’s entire product, and at the rati it is going it must be askec how soon it will reach hall r or moreV In my opinion, a more easily understood gauge on the current increase in public spending is the increase in the interest on the public debt. As Members of Congress well know, we do not annually budget that interest, but each year merely appropriate enough to pay it. “I, of course, consider what has happened in recent years in terms of government spending when I was elected to the House of Representatives in 1932. That year, the total expenditures of the government were less than one-third of the present interest on the public debt. In 1932, the interest on the public debt was $599,277,000. The biggest jump came during World War II, but it has been steadily rising ever since. Economists are agreed that the current boom is the longest sustained period of prosperity in this century and it has carried both the Gross National Product and the national produced income to aK-time highs, and yet, during that period, interest on the national debt has steadily increased simply because Congress has been spending more than the total revenue, and passing the remainder on to generations yet unborn in the form of a national debt that will soon reach $325 billion.” Figures on the interest follow; INTEREST ON THE PUBLIC DEB1932 1961 1962 1963 1964 ’65 (eat.) ’66 (eat.) 1/ P. 513 retary 1962. 2/ $ 8,957,000,000 1/ $599,277,09 9.120.000. 000 9.895.000. 000 10,666,000,000 11,200,000,000 11,500,000,000 Annual Report of the of the Treasury for fis< loot 102t not 119« 125* 128* 2/ P. 515, Annual Report of the Secretary of the Treasury for fiscal 1962. 3/U.S. Budget for fiscal 1965. _ Ill Culpeper Book Store 210 N.

Studies Rural Carrier Costs Postmaster General John A. Gronouski has announced the completion of a study which shows that an ultimate annual saving of between $25 million and $30 million could be realised by providing Rural Letter Carriers with leased automobiles instead of reimbursing them for use of their own car. “This is an economy proposal,’ Mr. Gronouski said, “that can help us to carry our President Johnson’s mandate to reduce expenditures while maintaining the same high level of service to the American people.' During the last fiscal year, : the Department spent nearly $70 million to reimburse Rural Letter Carriers for the cost of using their own vehicles as required by law. This expenditure represented payments to more than 31,000 Rural Letter Carriers who last year traveled some 570 million miles. Congress has established the current rate of reimbursement to Rural Letter Carriers at 12 cents per mile. The Department’s 14-month study indicates that vehicles ca n be leased on a nationwide basis at a cost of between six and eight cents a mile. Among Federal agencies that already lease vehicles are the Civil Service Commission and the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, private industry is making increased use of leased vehicles. “The study recommended that leased autos for Rural Letter Carriers be equipped with all basic safety devices as well as automatic transmission, rear positivetraction, and power windows," Mr. Gronouski said. 'Not only did the study substantiate dollar savings for the Goverment, but it also revealed relief can be given to some Rural Carriers who now have out-of-pocket expenses for operating their own car." Under the proposed program the Rural Le11e r Carrier would periodically have a new car and would no longer be responsible for maintaining or financing the vehicle.

Bryant and R. c. Hammes Jr. report that in a four-year period yields from ladino c 1 over-orchardgrass averaged 4,800 pounds per acre of dry forage when mow ed. When grazed by animals the return was 3,200 pounds per acre. Average yearly alfalfa-orchardgrass yields for five years were 7,700 pounds per acre when mowed, compared to 6,800 pounds per acre when grazed by animals. In 1961 all plots were mowed to estimate residual effects of grazing compared to cutting management. The ladino-or'chardgrass plots which had been grazed yielded about 1.80C pounds less forage per acre than plots that had been mowed* » Dept, of Agric. Enforces Labeling The Virginia Department of Agriculture announced today that it would begin enforcing through its r e g u 1 a t o r y inspectors, a labeling violation of the state’s Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Law. “The prohibited practice which the department is conl^rned about is that of cer tain retailers pouring the contents from original large drums into smaller containers before sale. This is being done without first transferring the proper labeling instructions to the new container," said Arthur T. Hart, supervisor of VDA’s pesticide regulatory section. Hart points out that this is not only against the law but is potentially a very dangerous practice. He states that the department, the VPI Extention Service, and industry are now involved jointly in the effort to insist on proper labeling of pesticides bought by consumers. The most frequently found pesticides being distributed in the illegal manner include: creosote wood preservative, pentachlorophenol wood preservative, stock dip and disinfectant, tobacco sucker control solution (including mineral oil), and soil fumigants. “Letters have been sent to pesticide registrants, manufacturers, distributors and dealers, reminding them of the law and requesting their help in stamping out this illegal practice of some retailers," Hart added.
