According to information 'V secured from the Consumer and Marketing Division of USDA, it is not mandatory that a county participate in the Commodity Distribution or Food Stamp programs, however, if a county does not wish to participate with a locally operated program, USDA will come in and instigate a federally-operated program. Food supplies began arriving Friday and were stocked at the Lea building. Doors were officially opened Tuesday for distribution. James H. Falls of Woodville is the contractor for distribution and will be assisted by Garfield Burke, also of Woodville. C. C. Lewis of Sperryville will be the certifying agent. People who think they are eligible for commodities may I make application at the store building which will be open every day during the remainder of July and the month of August between the hours of 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. The head of the household must make the application unless he is incapacitated. In that event the wife may make it. Those applying are reminded to bring proof of amount of income. The store opened Monday for applications and distribution and food will be distributed through next Friday for July. A schedule will be posted at the building showing distribution days thereafter. Commodities distributed will be com meal, flour, rice, dried milk, lard, dehydrated white potatoes, dried beans, butter, cheese, peanut butter, rolled oats and wheat, canned meat, raisins and dried split peas.

Schools Committees appointed to study the disposition of the Washington and Sperryville Elementary School buildings and grounds were present at the July Board of Supervisors meeting Friday to discuss their findings. Both committees recommended holding their properties for at least a year before any disposition be made of either one. They felt that the buildings might be needed for additional county office space or for school storage space since neither the new high school or new elementary school has any appreciable amount of space for storage of equipment or supplies. The possibility of needing a central garage for school buses in the future was mentioned since the dual laning of Route 211 is expected to take the present garage location. Another trend of thought was the future establishment of a vocational school. The Washington committee felt that the ball diamond lot across from the school there might be sold, however, others felt it was needed as a recreational facility for baseball for it has been used consistently every summer by several local teams. The Youth Group organized in Sperryville requested the use of the Sperryville School as a center for its activities. The legality of leasing the building to them was to be investigated by Mr. Davis. The possibility of raising the old front portions of both buildings was discussed. Both were constructed in about 1908 and 1909 and will require much maintenance. The newer parts of each building and the smaller buildings at both sites could prove useful and would be much more desirable to have them under the control of the county. The final analysis resulted i'i a motion by Supervisor Herbert Foster with a second by Col. Norman Wilbur for all buildings Twenty-five Studenti Finish Driver Course Twenty-five students of Rappahannock County High School have recently completed a behind-the-wheel course in driver training under the direction of Dave Layman.

Students taking the course were James Jackson, Warren Smith, Jack Jenkins, James Kilby, Terry Russell, Dale Welch, Jack Lillard, Oliver Myers, Larry Turner, Kenneth Cave, Thomas Frye, Billy Dodson, Wayne Mills, Donnie Welch, Irvin Gatewood, Betty Atkins, Brenda St. Clair, Gail Updike, Joan Dodson, Amy Palmer, Betty Jenkins, Gertrude Mahoney, Charlotte Printz, Wanda Silvy and Teresa Cordani.

Estes and Norman Wilbur and George H. Davis, Jr. Commonwealth Attorney met in committee to negotiate a contract for his service for nine locations to be serviced weekly with container sizes adjusted to meet the needs.

Traffic Deaths Rise First Half Year Virginia’s toll of traffic deaths appeared headed for the eighth consecutive annual increase as the first six months of the year saw 549 to compare badly with the 528 for the same period of 1967, Colonel H. W. Burgess, Chairman of the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee and Superintendent of State Police, announced today. “The situation is even worse than it appears,” he added. “Late reports and deaths of persons now carried as injured during the first half of the year are certain to bring an upward revision of the 549 deaths.” Pedestrian deaths rose from 93 to 113 and traffic volumes were up about 12 percent Monthly deaths for 1968 numbered 73 in January, 80 in February, 103 in March, 108 in April, 92 in May and 93 so far for June. The 1967 counterparts were 73, 87, 102, 105, 87 and 74 respectively Virginia’s score of 1,223 deaths last year was the highest ever recorded and well above the long standing record of 1,110 set in 1941. For the first four months of the year, the National Safety Council gave Virginia a rate of 5.0 deaths per each 100 million miles of travel, exactly the national average. Colonel Burgess said that the one bright spot appears to be a reduction of the Memorial Day holiday toll from 20 to 11 this year.

It should be applied only to plants you want to kill using low pressure (30-40 pounds per square inch) equipment that will apply a wet spray (no mist) when there is no, or very little, breeze. It is safe to use in apple orchards. Always use a low volatile form. Butal esers are more tricky - avoid using this form. Some plants and trees are more susceptible to 2, 4-D than others. Never use this chemical near tomatoes or grapes. Also, use with caution near oaks, locusts and dogwood. Some dogwoods have been known to be killed by 2, 4-D, also wisteria. Based upon my experience, I feel this , more the result of 2, 4-D being in careless hands. Rappahannock being an apple county our people are accustomed to mixing sprays at x amount of chemical per 100 gallons of water. When applying 2, 4-D to crop or pasture land, one must first determine the amount of water his sprayer is putting out per acre when driving at x miles per hour and usually a x pounds of pressure. Then, and only then, use the prescribed amount of chemical in the amount of water determined. Effective use of chemicals does take some doing, so do your part and see that the driver of the equipment does his!

Value Wheat certificate payments to farmers participating in the 1968 wheat program will have a value of $1.38 per bushel, the U. S. Department of Agriculture has announced. The payments are based on the difference between the July 1, 1968, wheat parity price of $2.63 per bushel and the 1968-crop national average loan rate of $1.25 per bushel. The 1967 value was $1.36 per bushel. Wheat marketing certificates are authorized by the 2-price provisions of the Food and Agriculture Act of 1965, guaranteeing participating fanners 100 percent of wheat parity price for their share of the wheat used for domestic food. This substantially bolsters, farm income for wheat while permitting support of market prices through loans at levels more competitive in world trade channels. H. S. Barksdale, Chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee, said today that certificate payments to farmers participating in the 1968 wheat program will begin about July 25th from ASCS county office. The payments will be based on the projected production of 40 percent of the farm’s planted acreage within the 1968 wheat acreage allotment. Nationally, certificate payments to approximately 837,000 participating farmers will total about $730 million for the 1968 wheat crop. About 85 percent of the national allotment is on participating farms. When The annual display of fireworks at Avon Hall, home of Mr. and Mrs. William Carrigan at Washington, was enjoyed by many from the town and surrounding area. This is a sample of the brilliant, colorful display. Top left photo shows the Carrigan home and lawn decorated for the holiday and the picture below was the scene that night. related to the total production on the 49.2 million acres of allotment on participating farms, the $730 million in certificate payments represents additional income at a national average of 55 cents on each bushel produced by participants. The total average return per bushel will depend on price farmers receive in the market from their 1968 wheat crop.

Ree Ellis of Waynesboro was elected Chairman of the Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries at that group’s meeting in Richmond June 21. Ralph G. Gunter of Abingdon was elected Vice-Chairman. In other action the Commission formally reaffirmed its opposition to restrictive federal firearms legislation including the proposed federal registration of sporting arms and the licensing of owners. Commission members contend that such measures would cripple conservation programs by discouraging gun ownership and the legitimate sports of shooting and hunting. The sale of hunting licenses and excise taxes paid on sporting arms and ammunition are the sole sources of funds for state wildlife conservation and management programs, and in addition they contribute substantially to the acquisition of state lands for public outdoor recreation. The Commission also authorized its Fish Division to proceed with plans for building a new 100-acre fishing lake in Lee County. 20 off Regular Stock Men’s Suits, Sport Coats, Slacks, Shirts, Hats 20,« Men’s Famous Name Shoes & Golf Shoes ^3oU Ladies’ Dresses Ladies’ Sportswear 3^ of* Big Group of Ladies’ Shoes 141 E.

It seems that it is in some way associated with CHRISTIANITY, but not quite up to par. We know that Christianity applies to those who follow the Christ, but what about the person who practices churchanity. Is it a good word? If so, what is its meaning? I would assume that it pertains to people who go to church because it is the IN thing, but who fail to apply the true tenets of Christianity in their daily living. Some would accuse this type of person as a hypocrite. I maintain that going to church is good. It might set an example for some young person who could become a great religious leader. God has a way of using the poor device of man to work out His eternal purposes. Let’s go to church often. Some of God’s grace might rub off on us accidentally. It is worth the effort.

White & Company THE WHITE SHOP Culpeper, Virginia Open Friday Evenings For Your Shopping Convenience New Gun Regulations Not Answer To Crime Rep. John 0. Marsh, jr., said at Scottsdale July 4 “law and order in the United States will not be assisted substantially by new laws to register and license firearms.” “I can understand the sense of outrage at acts of violence involving guns which has prompted many citizens to demand licensing and registration legislation,” Marsh said, “but I continue to believe that the President’s proposal, and similar suggestions, would not have significant results with respect to the lawbreaker who elects to use a firearm in his illegal escapades.” “Law and order will come through improvement of lawenforcement techniques, and through a broader and more active concern among all citizens for respect of all types of laws, because an orderly society cannot exist in the absence of such respect,” he commented. The 7th District Congressman spoke at dedication ceremonies for a new bridge over the James River here, which was combined with observance of Independence Day and the marking of the 150th anniversary of the incorporation of the town of Scottsville. “With respect to firearms, as with respect to any other weapon, or even the use of such potentially dangerous instruments as the automobile, we must get back to the kdea of respect for law, or all citizens will be forced to live and rear their children in an atmosphere of fear and violence,” Marsh said; “the law, once established by the legislative agents of the people, must be enforced on an equitable basis-it must apply to the poor and the rich alike, to the privileged and the underprivileged, and no member of any class or group may be permitted an individual decision as to which laws he might decide to observe.” “This will cost more money for training and for the attraction to law enforcement of better-educated young people,” Marsh emphasized; “the policeman, whether in the large city or the small town or rural area, must be respected not only for his uniform, but also for his competence in his profe^sion-not only Dy me law-aoiaing, out m&u by the potential culprit. Every citizen must know that, if subjected to arrest, he will be treated firmly but honorably, and that all of his rights will be protected.” (Marsh is the sponsor of legislation which would require additional and separate penalties in major crimes when firearms were used or carried, but ‘would not affect-the purchase of firearms for sport, or for protection of a home or place of business.)

Phone 987-2401 Small Trailer Regulations Given As the popularity of small trailers used to transport boats and other property continues to grow, Captain R. M. Terry, State Police Safety Officer, noted that there appears to be considerable misunderstanding as to certain regulations under which they must be operated. If the gross weight of the trailer does not exceed 2,500 pounds, it may be towed at the rates applicable to automobiles. If the weight is greater, the limits are 55 miles per hour on the Interstate, 55 on highways which do not have limited access but are 4-lane and 45 on all other highways. Semi-annual inspection by an approved station is required for all types of trailers. Brakes are required on trailers with gross weight of 3,000 pounds and these must be capable of being operated by the driver of the towing vehicle. They must further be capable of stopping the combination of car and trailer on a hard dry surface within 50 feet at a speed of 20 miles per hour. A holding device for the combination is also required. The towing attachment for any trailer requires a drawbar, fifth wheel or other device, not to exceed 10 feet in length from one vehicle to the other, and a safety chain. All trailers must be equipped with a rear red light visible in clear weather from a distance of 500 feet and a white light illuminating the license plate to the extent that it can be read from 50 feet. Should the length of the combination of vehicles exceed 35 feet and be operated at night, it must be equipped with reflectors of an approved type mounted on the widest part of the towed vehicle or its load in such a manner as to be visible from the front and sides. Additional markers are required for trailers exceeding seven feet in height or width. As to turn signals, Captain Terry said that if a trailer is so constructed or loaded that a hand signal by the driver of the towing vehicle cannot be seen from the back or front must have a mechanical or electric signal of an approved type. In this connection, Captain i Terry said that difficulties' sometimes arise when an, unloaded trailer is inspected and approved and subsequent loading \ places it in violation, even though S its equipment has been officially approved.

In any event, the Association warns, avoid a possible serious injury by keeping your hands away from the blade until it completely stops. The Association also advises that the mower should be used only when there is sufficient daylight; it should not be lifted while the motor is running, and one should be sure of his footing, balance and control of the machine, while operating it.

Security Notes The social security amendments of 1967 raise from $1500 to 1 $1680 the amount of total earnings a social security beneficiary may have in a year 1 without any of his benefits being 1 withheld, Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, District Manager in Winchester, ' announced today. She pointed out that this new provision applies to all monthly beneficiaries under age 72 but not to any person who is receiving benefits because he is disabled. (Special rules with medical considerations must be applied when people who are receiving benefits because of their disability return to work.) No benefits will be withheld from a beneficiary if his earnings are no more than $1680 in 1968. If total earnings exceed $1680, $1 is withheld from benefits for each $2 of earnings between $1680 and $2880; above $2880, $1 in benefits is withheld for each $1 in earnings. However, no benefits would be lost for a month in which the beneficiary neither earns over $140 in wages nor performs substantial services as a self-employed person. As under previous law, beginning with the month in which he reached age 72 no benefits are withheld regardless of how much a beneficiary may earn. Mrs. DaJy emphasized that, due to these new provisions, it is increasingly important that people approaching retirement age realize that they may be able to collect some social security benefits although they still continue to work. She urged those who wish additional information about social security payments while still working to visit the social security district office at 20 S. Cameron St. or telephone 667-1511.

Virginia Charles Town { VAl »AV JfiilV HAW HAW HAW HAW HAW CUT BAIT — The “Back Shop Boys” at Green Publishers, Inc., the parent printing plant of the Rappahannock News in Orange, are shown modestly (?) displaying a few samples resulting from their annual trek to the deep blue sea. Blues and flounder were reported in abundance. With all of this aquatic enthusiasm, it’s no wonder the newspaper type got scrambled after their return. spectively, to make the study. The 1968 General Assembly asked the Commission, in cooperation with the Division of Industrial Development and the State Police, to consider existing mobile home rules and regulations “to the end that a practical and safe method for the transportation and movement of such housing be evolved.” The subcommittee appointed today said it would invite suggestions and recommendations from both the mobile home industry and other organizations and individuals Interested in the matter. Commissioner Fugate’s appointments came after the full Highway Commissior adopted a resolution authorizing the study. The report of the subcommittee is to be completed in time for consideration by the full Commission at its November meeting. The resolution noted that the Highway Commission “has had a policy for some years governing the issuance of permits for the movement of oversized vehicles on State highways, which policy was designed to protect the safety of the traveling public while permitting the greatest possible flexibility in the movement of such vehicles..' The Commission noted that at the request of the mobile home industry, it had reviewed the administration of this policy during the past winter and liberalized the rules and regulations. This liberalization, effective February 1, allowed the trailers to be moved on Fridays until noon (previously they had been prohibited on Fridays); reduced to five the number of holidays when such movement is prohibited, and eliminated the requirement for a pilot car in front of the mobile homes on four-lane divided highways and on other roads where alignment and grades permit adequate sight distances. In addition, the requirement for pilot cars in the rear was eliminated except for travel on roads where it is considered necessary for safety reasons. The policy followed in Virginia is in accord with recommendations of the American Association of State Highway Officials, which says that in the interest of safety permits should not be issued for other than short local movements where vehicle width requires more than one traffic lane. Virginia law permits free movement of mobile homes and trailers up to eight feet wide without a permit. The Department of Highways is required to issue permits for wider vehicles. Most mobile homes now are 10 or 12 feet wide. Traffic lanes on a number of the State’s older highways are 9 :o 10 feet wide. Lanes on new interstate and arterial roads are 12 feet in width.
