A “National Commander’s Award” citation also has been presented to Congressman Marsh by the First World War veterans organization. In a letter of thanks to Rep. Marsh, Richard Homan, commander-in- chief of the Veterans of Foreign Wars said. “You have the highest commendation of the Veterans of Foreign Wars for your outstanding service as a member of the House Committee on Appropriations.” Homan said his organization is deeply appreciative of Congressman Marsh’s efforts in helping to have favorably considered and passed by the 90th Congress a record amount of veterans legislation. Marsh was endorsed for re-election today by ACA (Americans for Constitutional Action). The non-partisan, national organization, with headquarters in Washington, D. C., said it was endorsing Marsh because of his consistent voting record for constitutional principles. Charles A. McManus, executive director of the organization, said that Marsh “is best judged by his performance during the six years which he has served in the House. His legislative record gives factual evidence of his valuable service to our Nation. He stands firm against the liberal pressures in Washington, the wild spending schemes, and the permissive society offered by the proponents of the Great Society.” 5 “Congressman Marsh has repeatedly stood for fiscal responsibility firm responsible opposition to the Communists; and for law and order for our Nation.” Marsh, who represents 17 counties and seven independent cities in the 7th Congressional District of Virginia, is seeking his fourth term in the U. S. House of Representatives. More White Collar Jobs In Rappahannock Co. What changes have taken place in Rappahannock County’s labor force since the last census? What is the numerical split, at the present time, between white collar and blue collar employment? Locally, as elsewhere in the United States, mechanization and automation have led to many shifts in job distribution in the period. The result, in Rappahannock County, has been a sizeable Increase in the proportion of white collar workers. The rise, since 1960, is estimated at nearly 16 percent. The findings are based upon national figures released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and upon data from the Department of Commerce. Classified as “white collar” in the government’s reports are professional, technical and kindred workers, managers, (Continue on page 6) While folks were house touring during the weekend, the}’-were also enjoying some mighty fine scenery, like this above.

Library Lines As evenings get longer and out-of-doors activities diminish, the time of the year has come when one finds more leisure to catch up with reading. The number of new books being published almost daily is bewildering, and your library is making every effort to offer to you books that may be expected to be of real interest. We have from time to time in this column called attention to current acquisitions. Among the most recent purchases are: “The Heritage” by Frances Parkinson Keyes. “Testimony of Two Men” by Taylor Caldwell. “The Eighth Day” by Thornton Wilder, also some mystery novels which have become best sellers: “Vanished” by Fletcher Knebel. “The President’s Plane is Missing” by Robert Serling. I “A Small Town in Germany” by John LeCarre, the author of “The Spy who Came in from the Cold”. We are constantly endeavoring to improve the quality of our library by eliminating books which proved to be of little interest and replacing them with works of acknowledged literary merit, such as “Collected Short Stories" by Henry James. “Studs Lonigan”, a trilogy, by James Farrett and others. Our section of children’s books is being constantly expanded, and even the youngest readers would be stimulated by visiting our library. 'Hie library will be open during the winter months: Wednesdays, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

With bumper to bumper traffic Sunday, there was aftly one slight fender-bender reported by Trooper W. A. Buntin. On Saturday Trooper «fcB. Willis also reported a slight collision. -At one time Sunday traffic was backed up from Sperryville all the way to Panorama, but the situation between Amissville and Warrenton did not appear as bad aS usual. However, we’re glad to share the beauty of the Blue Ridge with everyone, and hope our friends enjoyed the house ttfur and other activities in the cdunty during the weekend. i^lhe finale of the four-day county fire school was Friday night in the form of a dinner meeting and presentation of certificates. Saw Phil Irwin of Flint Hill enjoying the turkey and timmins and later receive his card. Told Phil that I didn’t know he wjis such an avid fire fighter. His reply was, “Well I had to go forward in the class because prior to; attending school, all I knew was that you are supposed to pull off the road when you see or hear «-fire engine.” dark over took us. David’s outdone himself though, for he got one up over a mile Sunday. When a passing motorist asked, “Stuck in the mud?”, to a truck driver sweating with a shovel to dig his truck out of the mud, he replied, “No, I’m not stuck. My truck died and I’m burying it.” In Culpeper County recently, a 16-year-old received his operator’s license on a Friday, demolished his new Mustang Saturday and was joined in the hospital Sunday by his 16-year-old wife who gave birth to a son. A Roanoke, Va. law effective in 1893 stated, “Any person who shall ride or drive through the streets of the city at a speed exceeding six miles an hour, or ride or drive around any street comer faster than a walk shall be fined not more than twenty dollars.” An Indiana state trooper stopped the driver of one of those trucks which peddle ice cream along the streets for a a minor violation. In seconds, both were surrounded by a crowd of crying youngsters of from 6 to 12 years old. When neither the trooper nor David Hoadley of Arlington and Earl Mann of Washington, D.C. were running in competition with the astronauts Saturday a week ago. They were successful in getting a kite up 4,150 feet with a second one attached about 3,000 and brought both back down. Don’t dare tell my son-in-law, David Hoadley, to go fly a kite, for that is just what he’ll do. We think we’ve got the county record as of Saturday before last. Hoisted on 4,150 feet with a second one attached at about 3,000. Got both of them back down again, too. Took the sharp eyes of Susan and chum Meldoy Green to keep the kites in sight. Irvin Kenyon was in the cheering section, but had to leave before the feat was accomplished, for the ice cream vendor could convince them that the latter was not going to jail, the trooper gave up and sent the driver on his way. Near Warrenton a driver involved in a crash left his car to call the police. A passenger, who also left the car to follow him, was killed by another car. The best safety device on a car is the rear view mirror with a patrol car in it. In the Service Richard C. Burke of Culpeper is on duty on the USS New Jersey in Vietnam whose activicites have been very much in recent news. He arrived there on October 1.

Question of the Week: “Should I mow this year’s weeds before spraying my pastures this fall for weed control or afterwards?” Due to the wonderful season we had last summer, most pastures have a dense growth of weeds. To mow such a growth before applying 2, 4-D would be like covering the susceptible weeds with a blanket, little chemical would actually hit the target. Mowing pastures at this season only improves appearance as all weeds produced in 1968 have matured and most seed has shattered to the ground. Last week was the first time in 29 Calf Sales the price received for “Good” grade steer calves was higher than that paid for “A’s” or “AA’s”. Why? Perhaps this was a freak situation, nevertheless we shall be looking forward to getting a report of all sales in the state to see if this was the case anywhere else in Virginia. Did you ever hear of defleecing sheep without shears? My wife read me from a newspaper of research being conducted at Beltsville on removing wool from sheep with one’s bare hands. The sheep were given a chemical which later caused the wool to release easily. Studies must be made further to determine whether the chemical affects the quality of the wool and whether any residue would j remain in the sheep’s carcass. 9 Hunting Accidents A total of 9 persons have been injured so far in the 1968-69 hunting season, 2 of them fatally, reports Game Commission Safety Officer J. N. Kerrick. Eight of the accidents involved shotguns and one a 22 calibre rifle. Last season a total of 46 persons were injured in hunting accidents, 7 of them fatally. “cross every bridge as you come to it”.

Hitt, owner - 675-3730 i Today we will examine a subject of which I know very little, politics. This quote was read recently “When a small man casts a long shadow, it is late in the day.’’ A small boy was asked to describe our political system. He said, “Our political system is made up of politicians and statemen. All the politicians I know are liars, I don’t know any statesmen.” How many TALL men do we have in our government, where are the statesmen? | There must be something wrong with a system in which some ‘get away with murder,, literally. That subsidizes Illegitimacy. A poverty program in which less than ten percent of! proceeds reach those who are actually in need. In which the1 industrious are heavily taxed to support the indolent, some who wouldn’t work in a pie factory. Is there a real TALL man in either of the three parties we can elect to head our government? Let us think about it prayerfully and vote for the best man. Is it too late in the day, is the night upon us? Heaven help us. There was a real TALL man back about two thousand years ago. His shadow (?) is reaching us today, and will extend into the far reaches of eternity. He said, 7 TRANSFORM WITH Social Notes from Washington By Mrs. Ruth J. Keyser Mr. and Mrs. A. H.

Phone 825-2161 — New and Used Cars and Trucks — Veterans News All veterans and widows who receive nonservice connected pension or death pension and parents who receive Death Indemnity Compensation will receive an annual income questionnaire with the VA check for October which they will receive on November 1. Pension and death pension under both the “old” and “new” pension laws, and Death Indemnity Compensation for parents are subject to income limitations. TTie VA checks on income each year by sending an annual income questionnaire to each individual who is receiving a check for one of these benefits. Beginning January 1, 1969, the annual income limitations governing the entitlement to VA pensions and dependency benefits will be raised $200. Further, the present income levels, with three graduations, used in determining the amount of benefits a recipient may be paid, will be restructured to provide a range of 13 to 28 income levels graduated in $100 steps. Payees are reminded that the amount of income they report for 1969 must be figured to the exact penny, so VA can place them in the proper income bracket. It is suggested that very careful thought be given to the computation of the amount of income that is reported for 1969. Failure to return the annual income questionnaire by January 15, 1969, will cause the VA to stop the benefit check and create an overpayment against the person receiving the benefit. The VA may then demand refund of money it paid for 1968. Veterans and widows who draw THE ORIGINAL “SAY IT AGAIN” VIRGINIA DARE SCUPPERNONG WINE NOW AVAILABLE IN STATE ABC STORES benefit checks based on service connected disabilities or deaths are not required to give an annual accounting of their income.

In the so-called “blue collar” group are farmers, service workers, factory employees and all others. At the time of the last census, 1960, there were a total of 329 persons in white collar jobs in the local area and 1,449 in blue collar. Hie changes that have taken place since then are attributed to technological advances, both in the factory and on the farm. The Department of Labor finds that the trend, generally, is toward a long term, rapid growth of white collar workers and a modest increase in blue collar employment. It sees, also, a cotinuing rise in the skill level, a decline in farm employment and a hillsdalTI DRIVE-IN THEATREl WASHINGTON, VA. | Fri-Sat, Oct 25-26: CHUBASCO Sunday, Oct 27: THE COOL ONES Coming Next Week: BONNIE AND CLYDE 1200 HEAD THURSDAY - OCT. 31>t 1:00 p.m. FEEDER CALVES AND YEARLING STEERS and HEIFERS 300 to 1000 lbs.

By virtue of the adjustments that have taken place in Rappahannock County in the last eight years, it is estimated that white collar workers now constitute approximately 21 percent of the local labor force. Hie big differences in earnings,^ spending potential and living standards that once distinguished blue collar worker from white collar are becoming much less pronounced. The pay scale of the average blue collar worker has been going up at a much faster rate than that of the white collar. As a consequence, he is able to live more spaciously than he once did and to enjoy more of the luxuries of life. Read the Want Adsl It Pays!
