J71,000 Pension Hike In Raphk. County To what extent will the boost in social security payments, recently voted by Congress benefit residents of Rappahannock County? | How much will retirement] checks in the local area average under the new schedule?! On the basis of the latest figures from the Social Security Administration, which show the number of local recipients and the amount they were receiving at the beginning of 1967, the new total will be approximately $71,000 greater per year than before. Across the board increases are provided for retired or disabled workers and their, dependents. Those who have1 been getting minimum benefits of $528 per year will now receive $660. For couples, there will be an increase in the minimum from the current $798 to $990. At the upper end of the scale for those whose monthly salaries averaged $550 or more during their late working years, the pension payment for an individual will rise from $2,016 to $2,279. For a retired couple, it will be from $3,024 to $3,419. The size of the pension a retired worker receives is directly related to the amount he earned*over a period of years prior to retirement and in turn, to his contributions tc the pension fund. In Rappahannock County, according to the latest annual repdrt of the Social Security Administration payments to beneficiaries were at the average yearly rate of $628 per recipient. Beginning in March, when the # first checks reflecting the increase will arrive, the local average will be $710. For the community as a whole, the pension payments will amount to $618,000 a year as compared with the previous total of $547,000. Hand in hand with the bigger benefits goes an increase in costs. Those who have been paying social security taxes on earnings below $6,600 will be continued at the same rate for another year. Those earning between $6,600 and $7,800, however, will have to pay 4.4 percent on the amount over $6,600.

File Wool and Lamb Applications Now Wool growers who expect j 1967 payments on shorn wool ar lambs sold had better get ausy and file applications for payment with the ASCS office, Mr. Barksdale, chairman, of Rappahannock County ASC | Committee, advises. ASCS wants to have all applications on hand not later J than January 31 to submit! sales information to the Data Processing Center (DPC). Sub mission of this information to DPC is required for use as! part of the data that goes into the determination of the national average price received in 1967. The national average' price in relation to the in-j centive level determines the percentage level of sales price on which individual farm payments are computed. For example, in 1966 the national average price for wool sold was 52.1 cents per pound, whereas the incentive level was 65.0 cents per pound The difference between the two was 12.9 cents or 24.8 percent of the national average price. The average price received by each grower for his wool was multiplied by 24.8 percent to determine each; grower’s incentive payment in dollars. Thus, the higher the price received by each grower for his wool, the larger the payment, Mr. Barksdale explained. He urged wool producers to delay no longer in submitting wool sales slips and filing their applications for payment for the marketings of wool during the calendar year ending December 31, 1967. Payments on applications are expected to be announced in early April.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON «75-SS4f MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Gass Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. Subscription Rate Mn Advance): $2.50 per year in Rapps hannock and adjacent counties; 93.00 elsewhere. Letter To Editor Dear Editor: We enjoyed the article “Hey, Unde" which appeared in last week’s Rappahannock News; we enjoyed it thoroughly until we got to the last paragraph. Maybe we are supersensitive when we see our alphabethpro grams mentioned, but we think there is calumny in that last paragraph. It’s not so much what was said as what was implied. Implication #1 is that Aid to Dependent Children is a program for illegitimate children. Title IV of the Social Security Act says nothing about illegitimacy; what it does say is that the program is for children who are in need. The fact is that less than 10% of all illegitimate children born in Virginia are on the welfare rolls; the other 00% are cared for by their families or relatives without; public aid. We don’t hear much about the other 90%. Can it be tnat we are more concerned about our money than about the problem? Implication #2 is that it is a waste of the taxpayers’ money to support illegitimate children. There certainly is some thing rotten here, but it’s in the author’s thinking. Do we believe in punishing an innocent child for its parents’ behavior? In the long run deny ing aid to this group of chil dren would be far more costly "her the present program in L'-w-t'ns of health, delinquency, and crime. And here’s another thought; not many newborn babies are left on door-steps, or thrown in trash barrels, or buried in shallow graves. Could be that ADC has something to do with it. WJlile we’re on the subject( of rjjbe cost,, Of supporting children, we wonder where the au thor of this article lives. Not in Virginia, we feel sure. Our standard basic allowance for one child in ADC is $30 a month. For a mother and one child it is $59 a month. In addition, a small family is allowed a total of $14 a month for utilities, and total shelter expense, including rent anc utilities, can’t exceed $75 a month. Then there are maxi mum grants; and ADC grant, no matter what the size of the family, is limited'to $140 a month plus the net cost ol shelter, with an overall max: mum of $215. Sensational TV programs to the contrary, we don’t think many mothers are going to keep on having babies so that they can live on welfare. It’s just not that attractive. We’re awfully tired of being whipping boys; we didn’t cause illegitimacy nor are we subsidizing it. It is a tremendously complex problem which has existed ever since there were people. Cultural, legal economic, psychological, social. and moral factors all must be considered if we are to understand it. We only deal with it in the best ways we know. So leave the driving tc us!

But since last year’s crisis Soviet naval Forces have come close to matching ours, in numbers if not in strength. “For many years the British have provided the major stabilizing influence in the MidJle Fast. The recently rnnounced cutbacks in their military establishment may result In a situation there even more dangerous than in the past. “These and other problems in the Middle Fast will be with us for many years. I appreciate this opportunity to discuss the situation and our future therewithknowledgable British officials,” Senator Spong concluded. i Panther Tales By Barbara Lillard Sighs of relief were heard throughout RCHS as examinations were completed Tues day. 1 am afraid that the relief won’t last long, however, as report cards will be distributed soon. Let’s face it, half the school year is gone and some of us need to work a little harder. The stamp campaign has been extended to the 26, which is tomorrow! Please bring in those stamps and maybe your homeroom will be on top in the competition. Thus far, Mrs. Wolf’s 9th grade girls are ahead with 615 stamps and they are still going strong. Let’s see if each homeroom can get in the race. It only takes a second to tear a cancelled stamp from the envelope, yet these stamps send so much food to starving children. We have nothing to lose, but so much to gain by contributing to this international campaign. The SCA Executive Council held an informal discussion on January and also received their first set of proofs. Coeditors, Jean Woodard and Sandra Foster expect the earliest arrival of the Rappsody yet. They are hoping for the last of April. The staff is doing a tremendous job.

Mothers Escalate Birth Defects War In Nationwide March of Dimes Drive A nationwide march, calling for escalation and all-out efforts to win a war, is planned for the week of January 21. Feelings run high in favor of this cause and none will oppose it. Everyone is a hawk in the battle against crippling birt\ defects which strike a quarter of a million newborn babies every year in the United States. This year, more than a nyt-^ lion mothers have volunteered i serve the March of Dimes f its continuing fight against e heartbreak of birth defects, arching Mothers know that M^bch of Dimes funds conquered polio in the 1950s and freed them from fear of this childhood crippler. Now, determined that children handicapped by birth defects be given a better chance in life, and in the hope that unborn generations will be spared, volunteers will march through their neigborhoods on behalf of the 1908 March of Dimes campaign. They will urge people to contribute to the important work carried on by medical teams at 100 March of Dimes birth defects centers and to support the voluntary health organization’s research and education programs. For the fifth consecutive year, actress Jane Wyatt is serving as national chairman of the March of Dimes Mothers’ March on birth defects. As in the past, Miss Wyatt will personally lead the drive in her Southern California community, calling on her neighbors to ask them to give to the March of Dimes. A frequent visitor to birth defects centers around the country. Miss Wyatt is staunch in her belief that the fight can be won if enough support is given to those who are leading th^ way. March of Dimes-financed Centers conduct a triple attack on birth defects—the Great Destroyer. In addition to diagnosis and treatment, scientists are studying the causes of defects and ways of preventing them. No birth defect ever touches one person alone. One American family in 10 knows the tragedy of a child with congenital handicap, either mental or physical. For this reason, the March of Dimes pays close IT'S NO SECRET that actreii Jane Wyatt again will lead more than one million volunteer! in the national Mother!'

This year they will carry a personal message, “For Women Only," from I)r. Virginia Apgar of The National Foundation-March of Dimes. An internationally recognized medical authority, she developed the “Apgar Score," widely used throughout the world to determine the condition of an infant immediately after delivery. In a personalized note, Dr. Apgar begins with the importance of prenatal care. She urges mothers and future mothers to have a complete physical check-up and to talk their husbands and fiances into doing the same Health histories and any family hackground of birti) defects should he given to the doctor and his advice followed faithfully during pregnancy. I)r Apgar warns against taking any drugs or medication even aspirin during pregnancy without a doctor’s approval To mothers marching against birth defects, it is not enough to he concerned for just one week in January. The March of Dimes, and all who are associated with it, have a twofold purpose. They want every child horn with a severe handicap to lead a happy, useful life in a society which fully accepts him.

Va. Capitol Report Virginia voters will havethe las; word on proposed changes tffthe State Constitution, under provisions of legislation just passed by the General Assembly, now meeting at the State Capitol. The first major updating of the Virginia Constitution in more than four decades will get under way soon as Governor Mills E. Godwin, Jr. names an 11-member commission to suggest revisions. Set up in accordance With the Governor’s request, the constitution study commission will make its recommendations by January 1, 1969, in order that a special session of the Assembly next year might act on the suggested revisions. Following approval by a second session of the Assembly, the regular session in 1970, the changes would be voted upon by the people of Virginia in the November 'genefal' election of that 'year before going Mnto effect. Hard on the heels of the presentation of the Governor’s budget recommendations for the 1968-70biennium came bills in both the House of Delegates and the Senate calling for voter approval in Novemfc^. of the state’s borrowing a total of $70,000,000 for capital outlay projects at the State’s college and mental hospitals. The Governor asked for the legislation in his opening address to the General Assembly, in which he stressed the necessity for Virginia’s exercising the Constitutionally pro vided for borrowing authority in order to meet pressing needs in education and mental health. In presenting his budget to the joint House and Senateap propriation committees, the Governor pointed out that if the Commonwealth is going to build new classrooms and laboratories at its four-year colleges, construct seven new community colleges across the State and reduce overcrowding by geriatric and alcoholic patients in the mental hospitals, the State will have to raise taxes or resort to the Constitutional provision for borrowing. He noted that the provision has been in the Constitution For 40 years and said that it was put there for just such a purpose as that for which Virginia now needs it. Following a lengthy public hearing attended by more than 500 persons, legislation was introduced to permit local option on the sale of liquor by the drink. Also introduced were bills to make possible mandatory license revocation to keep habitual offenders off the highways, indeterminate prison sentences for persons convicted of felonies, use of metal studded snow tires on Virginia highways, shifting the operating costs of the State Division of Motor Vehicles from the highway fund to the general fund, easier right-ofway acquisition by the Department of Highways in certain instances, establishment of a statewide police standards commission, abolition of the Commission on Constitutional Government, a commission to boost Dulles International Air port, controls over door-todoor sales, and control of “nuisance” birds. Several conflict-of-interest bills also were presented. A package of 57 bills concerning highway safety has been submitted as a result of the Virginia Traffic Safety Study Commission’s deliberations. The measures call for stricter driver licensing requirements, sterner penalties for violators, a revision of law enforcement methods, and establishment of a new state division of highway safety. Marsh To Request Study Commission On Agriculture Roanoke, Jan. 17 -- Rep. John O. Marsh, Jr., said here today that he planned to request the Administration to appoint a study commission “to examine the long-range goals and the economic future of American agriculture.1' “Recent reports that less that six percent of the American population are living on the farm have a tendency to be misleading,” he said; “these ignore two important factors: 1. “That associated with the production facilities of agriculture is a gigantic industrial complex ranging from farm machinery to marketing and packaging; and 2.

Our place of world preeminence can be traced directly to our ability to free people from the land in order to work on the assembly line in the plant and in the office. Our continued growth and progress still will be determined in the long run by our food production capabilities. If our agricultural output should ever slacken or fail to keep pace with our other growth, the wheels of American progress would grind to a halt.” In recommending what agricultural producers should do, Marsh said that greater effort should be made “to impress on legislators, business and industrial leaders and those not directly associated with agricultural areas and theagri cultural process the need to have a greater appreciation of the part that food and fiber, play in their own economic well-being.” “A failure thus tar by many in executive and legislative posts in government, in industry and in labor to know something about the agricultural process and farm problems leads to unrealistic demands, frequently resulting in legislation that is selfdefeating for those who propose it, he said. “The American workingman has a great stake in farm economy’s ability to produce foodstuffs for the table at reasonable prices,“Marsh said. Turning to specific problems of orchardists, he said that “ingenuity in harvesting the crop is going to be the key to profitable orchard operations ifor the future, because there .is little prospei§Eof acontirtiJ11 ing supply of Skilled harvest labor at reasonable rates.” “I need not recall the experiences of recent years, in which orchardists repeatedly have been kept on the hook for months in the matter of authorizations for imported harvest labor,” Marsh said, “and 1 see little prospect of a marked change in attitude in the Executive Branch, or in Congress as a whole.” “If, as many believe, it is economically impractical to develop a professional mobile aarvest force for American agriculture, the resort probably will h^ve to be to-more sophisticated mechanical pickers operated by custom harvesters, except among the major growers," he said. “With competition high in the market place, and the consumer increasingly selective, the fruit industry cannot operate at a profit with a marginalforce of agricultural labor doing the harvesting," Marsh commented. “Despite the obvious prob- j lem, there is not broad acceptance of the idea of importing labor for harvest work, and6preadingurbanization is not likely to increase sympathy for the farmer," he added. , “A similar attitude shoved aside realistic approaches to the matter of applying minimum wage legislation to agriculture, Marsh said. 1 i « ■TIRED TIMEPIECE?Don’t let time run out on you.

Car Industry Makes 250 Millionth Unit Detroit -- The U. S. motor vehicle industry has recorded another important milestone in its relatively short history with production of its 250 millionth vehicle. o The Automobile Manufacturers Association, which keeps the records for the industry, reports the event occurring in mid-January but said that the exact time and place is impossible to determine. The industry now has 93 assembly plants located in 72 cities and 26 states across the nation with production running as high as 45.0($, Vehicles daily. The industry, which dates its beginning in 1896, required 16; years, until 1912, to produce its j first million vehicles. But! irapidly increased use of vehicles saw this figure climb to I to 50 million by 1931, only 19 years later. In even less time, the 17 years until 1948, the vehicle marking the 100 i millionth rolled off an as| sembly line. An expanding economy and improved standard of living produced an ever growing need for highway transportation so that in just 14 more years this figure was doubled. On Decmeber 11, 1962, the 200 millionth vehicle was driven from one of the industry’s plants. The industry’s production of another 50 million vehicles in less than six years, approximately one-Sixth the time required for the first 50 million, points up the nation’s continued reliance on cars, trucks and buses and the highway transportation sys tern. The 250 million total includes nearly 206 million passenger cars and more than 44 million motor trucks and buses.

Let’s now look at Food and see what is expected for 1968. Not surprising to many, I'm sure, retail food prices will also be higher in 1968. We saw an increase of 1 % In 1967, but this year’s is listed as an increase of 2-3%. Despite the increases, the percentage of disposable personal income used for food is now down about 1% from that spent in 1966. About 1/5 of total expenditures for food and beverages goes for meals and snacks eaten away from home.

It is possible that there will be less Vitamin C available -than in 1967 because of the decline in production of citrus fruit. Despite the plentifulness of fctods and nutrients, many will continue to be undernourished, a problem with which we are always faced. The last trend I might mention will make it harder on you, the consumer, to choose products to get the best buy for your income - that is the ever increasing supply of new products that appear on the market each year. The products will be available but it’s up to you to invest your resources so that your family’s needs can be met. Amissville News John H.

Daly In my last article I discussed the increased social security payments that would be coming to persons now on the social security benefit rolls in early March as a result of the amendments signed into law by President Johnson on January 2, 1968. The effect of the new legislation is also to increase the benefits of all future beneficiaries a minimum of 13per cent. A person whose earnings under social security had averaged $350 a month would under the old law, get a benefit of $124.20 upon retirement at 65, or $186.30 for himself and his wife if she was also 65 upon his retirement. Under the new law, based on the same average earnings of $350 a month, his retirement benefit will be $140.40 per month, or $210.60 for the couple $24.30 more a month. The maximum retirement benefit under the old law would have been $168 a month ($252 for a couple) payable to a worker 29 years old in 1968 and retiring in the year 2004, In Memoriam In loving memory of my dear husband, Leslie A.

Main St. Culpeper, Va. 825-2161 with average earnings of $550 a month, or. $6^600 a year. Under the new law, this same worker can look forward to a monthly payment of $189.90 ($284.90 for himself and his wife.) Thus for these workers who have been earning and who will continue to earn wages of $6,600 a year or less, the new amendments will mean sizable increases in their future bene fit payments -- and without comparable increases in the social security tax contributions they were scheduled to pay under the old law. A worker earning $6,600 a year will pay exactly the same amount of social security taxes in 1968 as he paid in 1967. In 1969 and 1970, he will actually pay $6.60 less for the year than he would have paid under the old law. In years after that he will pay only slightly more, with his maximum contribution no more than $1.38 more a month than he would have paid under the law as it stood before the enactment of the. benefit increases. These contribution rates also include the protion he pays toward his medicare protection for his old age. Higher social security contributions are scheduled, however, for the one out of four wage earners who earns over $6,600. He will be paying social security contributions on up to $1,200 more of his annual earnings. Beginning with 1968, earnings up to $7,800 a year will be subject to social security contributions and will also count toward social security benefits. For a worker earning the maximum of $7,800 or more a year, this will mean additional socials security contributions of'$4.40 more per month in 19687-rising to a maximum additional contribution of $7.28 per month in 1987 and later, including the amount he pays for his and his wife’s hospital insurance under medicare. These higher paid workers who will be paying substantial ly more in social security con tributions are, however, the ones who will also get substantially higher benefits, ranging up to 30 percent higher than under present law. For example, a young man now 27 or younger who pays social security contributions on $7,800 a year until his retirement at age 65, will collect 30 percent more in monthly benefits than he would under present law -- $218 a month | COMPLETE ONErSTOP I i Building Supply Hardware Paipt MUlwork Lumber Warremon Building Material Co., Inc. ON THE BY-PASS WARRENTON, VA. Phone 347-1400 for himself and his wife. His family’s benefit protection in case of his disability or death is also substantially improved. Even the higher paifj middle aged workerwho is much closer to retirement age will find his benefit prospects greatly Improved. For example, a worker who is 50 in 1968 and will pay social security contributions on earnings of $7,800 a year for only 15 years will collect a retirement benefit of $188.80. This compares with the $155 per month he would have collected under the old law, an increase of 21.8 percent. He and his wife together will be eligible for $283.20 a month, in-' stead of $232.50.
