Volume XX. Number 34. WASHINGTON. VIRGINIA. THURSDAY. JULY 10, 1969 •10c Copy Candidates for 1969 Gubernatorial Nominations; Demo Primary July 15 By Doug Baumgardner 1969 promises to be a turning point in the political history of Virginia. The Old Dominion has become an urban state. The rural conservatism which has characterized her past politics is rapidly becoming an institution of the past. Virginia’s politics tend to increasingly reflect national, rather than southern, patterns of thought. In short, V. O. Key’s 1949 claim that “Virginia, more than any other state, can lay claim to a thorough control by the oligarchy” is now obsolete. Whether or not that era was good or bad is no longer the question. On July 15 Virginia’s Democrats will go to the polls and select their nominee for governor. The choice they make may well determine the course ol the Democratic Party in Virginia for years to come. There are three candidates for the Democratic nomination. The purpose of this article is to acquaint the reader with the candidates lives and their politics. * * * * Henry Howell Henry Howell, age 48, is presently a State Senator frorr Norfolk, Virginia. As a lifetime resident of the Old Dominion, he has been affiliated with the anti-establishment wing of the Democratic Party throughout his political career. F or all practical purposes Howell’s political career began ir 1949, when he campaigned for Francis Pickens Miller for governor. From there he went or to a seat in the House oi Delegates and later to election as State Senator from Norfolk Throughout this time his identification with the liberal wing of the Democratic Party was beyond reproach. . In the context of Virginia’s ‘politics Henry Howell’s campaigr for governor is a phenomenon His brash campaign style conflicts sharply with the soft-spoker image usually associated with Virginia politicians. Howell’s campaign for governor seems tc reflect a neo-populist style. His slogan of “keep the big boys honest” has an appeal to both urban liberals and the Wallace voter. In short, Howell’s strategy is to unite labor, Negroes, urban liberals and even Wallace voters in a miniature Roosevelt coalition. Whether such a strategy can be successful in Virginia, where neither populism or liberalism have been popular, remains to be seen. In the past Howell has been a crusader for liberal causes. Many credit him with bringing ‘one man, one vote’ to Virginia. A lawsuit initiated by him forced the state to increase education funds to Northern Virginia. His efforts against the poll tax and other hallmarks of rural conservatism have left their imprint upon the Old Dominion. Howell’s past record, woupled with the nature of his present campaign, has alienated many moderate and conservative Democrats. Many political observers feel his nomination will insure a Republican victory in the November general election. Such claims can be substantiated through an analysis of Republican victories in the second, sixth, eighth, ninth and tenth congressional districts in recent years. These victories have been attributed to defections on the part of moderate and conservative Democrats to the Republican nominee because of the liberal nature of the Democratic nominees. Some of Howell’s campaign positions are as follows: 1. More consumer protection. Howell advocates more protection for the consumer in state government. In particular, he objects to what he feels is an . overly pro-business attitude on the part of the State Corporation Commission. 2. Repeal of the sales tax. Howell feels that the sales tax hurts the poor-consequently he advocates its repeal. To replace revenue lost from a sales tax repeal he advocates higher taxes on corporations-particularly coal mining and timber industries. 3. Repeal of Virginia’s right to work law. Howell, being extremely pro-labor, advocates tile repeal of this law, which he feels holds back union expansion in Virginia. 4. Abolition or curtailment of the powers of the State Compensation Board. Howell feels that the State Compensation Board, through its power to set the salaries of local officials, is the major disciplinary institution of the old Byrd organization.* These are but a few of countless positions taken by Henry Howell in this year’s campaign. In general, Howell’s (Continued on Page 3) Agenga Slight at Board Meeting The Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors held its July meeting Friday the 4th with all members present. Minutes of the June meeting and then a special meeting were read and received approval of the group. The Dump Committee was authorized to make decisions and act on necessary maintenance and operation of the refuse problem. It was noted that the dump needed to be pushed in badly. The local Jaycees have volunteered to erect a panel fence around the units at Sperryville. The Board approved the appropriation of $4,600 as Rappahannock’s part of the initial cost of securing land for the Community College which will be located near Middletown. A long discussion on the two obsolete school buildings in the county, the Washington and Sperryville old elementary schools, brought no concrete decision on their fate. A Washington, D.C. wrecking company had offered to come and make an estimate on wrecking the buildings. They would charge $200 just to come and look. A recommendation was made to contact a firm in Front Royal which might be interested, and the Clerk was asked to do this. No bids have been received on painting and repair work needed on the courthouse so this issue is still open. The group voted to petition the Circuit Court with a request that county boundary markers are properly placed by the surveyors involved. After a run-down of current bills and the approval of payment for the same, the short meeting adjourned. Meeting Scheduled for Boston Area H. D. A meeting of Boston and Slate Mills area women is planned for Thursday, July 17, at 7:30 p.m. at the home of Mrs. Howard J. Waddell of Hobby Hills Farm, Route 707, between Slate Mills and Boston. Ground work for an organization was laid last month, when Miss Judy Burtner, Extension Agent in Rappahannock County visited in this area. All area women interested in a Homemakers Club are urged to attend and make this a “get acquainted night”. Rappahannock Farmers Received $31,327 In Cost-Shares Under ACP Last Year Rappahannock County farmers received $31,327 in cost-shares under the Agricultural Conservation Program (ACP) in 1968 for carrying out necessary soil and water conservation practices, according to the Annual Report just released by the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation office. This amount compares with $37,82 1 earned in ACP cost-shares in the county in 1967 and $35,988 in 1966. The money was paid to county farmers for such items as establishing permanent cover, improving permanent cover, liming farmland, contour strip-cropping, forest tree planting, forest improvement, building farm ponds, controlling shrubs with chemicals, wildlife cover and winter cover. The largest amounts paid to farmers in 1968 were $20,335 for improving permanent cover and $4,281 for establishing additional permanent cover. The ACP and other agricultural programs are administered in Rappahannock County by a county committee made up of three farmers. This committee keeps farmers informed about the ACP program, reviews crop allotments, and gives advice and suggestions to farmers as well as aid in making program recommendations to the State committee. Participation in the Agricultural Conservation Program is on a voluntary basis. Farmers may participate in ACP cost-sharing only if a request if filed before the work is begun on the practice. It the county committee agrees that the practice is needed and funds are available, the farmer’s request is approved. Cost-share payment is made only after the practice is completed in full accordance with published [specifications. Production adjustment programs were operated in the county last year on wheat and feed grain. There were 113 farmers participating in these programs, they diverted 1155 acres from production and received $47,519 in payments. Under a wool program in operation last year, Rappahannock County farmers received incentive payments on shorn wool and on unshorn lambs sold in the amount of $1,955 Payments were made to 24 farmers on 4543 pounds of wool sold. Pay menu were made on a percentage basis necessary to Diane Williams was named Queen of the Chester Gap Firemen's carnival Friday night and received her crystal tiara from outgoing queen Rachel Williams. Other contestants were Susan Fox, right, in second place and Kay North, third. Each received a gift for their efforts in the contest which, along with the juniors, cleared over $600. bring the national average price received by farmers up to an incentive level of 67 cents per pound. The ASCS report shows that there were 801 acres of cropland withdrawn from production under the Cropland Adjustment and Conservation Reserve at the year’s end with 19 farmers participating in the programs. These farmers received a total of $12,860. Sperryville Firemen Carnival Next Week Sperryville Firemen s annual carnival will be held next week beginning Wednesday night, July 16 and continuing through Saturday, the 19th. A large parade is scheduled for Thursday night and prizes will be awarded Saturday night at the climax of the event.

I Exhibit Feature* Native Items On July 4 an exhibit featuring the theme “Rappahannock Then and Now” was displayed at j the Rappahannock Library in Washington. The exhibit featured interesting antique items, nearly all of which were native to Rappahannock County. On display were many diverse carvings and quilts. Of particular interest was a cannon ball, obtained from Stone House Hollow, which had been a part of the artillery of John S. Mosby, the confederate colonel who wasi active in this section of Virginia ! Also of interest were two grain hooks used to rear grain by hand in colonial times, and old1 directory of Rappahannock, County, several civil war articles and an edition of McGuffey’s Third Reader published in 1832. These are, of course, but a few of the numerous items covered by the exhibit. In a broad sense the display gave its viewer an insight into the way of life prevalent in Rappahannock County in the past. Indeed, the exhibit left this author with the impression that nothing is a better clue to the nature of a civilization than the crafts of its people. In short, the exhibit held at the Rappahannock library on July 4 was a visual history of Rappahannock County. Wheat Marketing Certificate $1.52 Domestic marketing certificates for eligible 1969-crop wheat will be worth $1.52 per bushel, 14 cents per bushel more than for the 1968-crop certificate value. The certificates are based on wheat parity price as of July i, 1969. Payments totaling $800 million will be made over the next three months to approximately 980,000 farmers participating in the 1969-wheat program. This will be about $70 million more than the 1968-crop certificate value. The payments will be made around harvest time in the various producing statFor instance, some farmers in the Texas-Oklahoma region who have completed program qualifications may start receiving their payments next week at county Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS) Offices. Payments in Virginia will commence July 15. The certificate value is based on the difference between July 1, 1969, wheat parity price of $2.77 (Continued on page 2) If you recognize these beauties and want to see more, you should attend the entertainment scheduled for Friday, July 11 at the local elementary school.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Va. Telephone: WASHINGTON 675-3349 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the P. O. at Washington, Va. Subscriptions (in,advance) $3.00 in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.50 East coast; $4.00 mid-west; $4.50 West. Today*s Woman Judy Burtner Extension Agent, Home Economics Summer means family outings, parties, plenty of tasty dishes to ■ eat and, of course, the possibility of food poisoning. Many cases of intestinal upset, often referred to as food poisoning, occur every year because of food mishandling. This is especially true, during summer months. While the exact cause for the illness is not always determined, it is evident from the symptoms that the food had : become contaminated through mishandling. One of the bacteria responsible - for the majority of intestinal upsets caused by food mishandling is the golden-colored . Staphylococcus aurius. This microorganism is prevalent on hands, utensils, in the air, and in fact, most everywhere, so it can easily contaminate unprotected - food. Foods often prepared for picnics include meat sandwiches, egg and potato salads, pies and similar items which are an excellent media for bacterial growth. I When food becomes contaminated with Staph, the organisms multiply undetected and produce a toxin which causes an intestinal disorder. To prevent bacterial action, food should be kept free of recontamination after it is prepared. The temperature of prepared food should be kept above 120 degrees or below 50 degrees. An important thing to remember, is to never hold a cooked food product between 50 and 120 degrees for more than Z four hours. This temperature grange, oftei^ jeferred to ^s the § “inoculation zone” the ideal | temperature for the growth of rbacteria responsible for r gastrointestinal upsets. : Another group of bacteria ^called Salmonella is also troublemaker at picnics. They do » not produce a toxin as do ~ Staphylococci, but cause a ~ gastrointestinal infection which r: persists longer than attack caused r by Staph toxins. Salmonella ; organisms may also enter food by 5 improper handling, or from -^individuals carrying the ■I organisms. ~ Hands should be washed thoroughly before food is ~ handled. This is especially ~ important with raw foods for salads and foods that will not be reheated at the picnic area. Foods should be kept out of sunlight and away from insects and animals. Left-over food should be covered and held in a cooler. ******* Dates to Remember 4-H Groups: Sperryville 4-H - VFW Hall - Monday, July 14 at 2 p.m. Washington 4-H - Washington Firehall - Tuesday, July 15 at 2 p.m. Chester Gap 4-H - Chester Gap Firehall - Wednesday, July 16 at 10 a.m. Amissville 4-H - Mrs. Geo.

Archie Clatterbuck, pastor of Massanova Penecostal Church, left Monday for a trip to Mexico. He was accompanied by a group of young people: Robert Grigsby, Ray Burke, Mary Tharp, Laura Pullen and Jeanie Brown, who will assist him in his Gospel Tour that will take them to Monterey, Mexico. They will also visit friends on the trip. We studied the story of the creation last Sunday. While it is a very interesting subject as presented in the Bible, it is also confusing to the lay mind. The Bible story says that all creation was completed in six days, geologists contend that the universe is something over .£ix billion years old. Could it be that a day with God is a billion years? In Psalms 90:4 we read, “A thousand years with God are as a day, or as a watch in the night.” When I was with the military, a watch was two hours. Let’s use that differential. A thousand years would be four million, two hundred eighty thousand two hour watches. Then using the thousand years as compared with the billion, we would only have a one million differential. Some scientists think that in fifty billion years our sun will be a dead star. I don’t think I’ll be around that long. I hope that when that happens I will be sharing the eternal light of the ONE who created it all in the first place. WMlffi RAPP CHATS Rap Owings Extension Afent, Agrlealtare Had a good visit last week with our new area fruit specialist, Dr. Lindsay Brown. Lindsay is stationed at the Winchester Fruit Research Laboratory and will be continuing the program carried on by George Williams.

Their son who had retired from the Army was visiting them and was soon to leave to return to his home in Denver, Colorado. His daughter Johnnie was with him. They invited me to accompany them for a two week vacation and I could return here with other vacationing relatives who would meet us in Denver. I accepted his invitation with pleasure and I really enjoyed every minute of my trip. The three of us left here June 17. It was sunny and cool that morning, but promised u> warm up in the afternoon. We ran into "'>ad construction work before we got out of the county. We went Route 522 to Winchester, then hit Interstate 81 through Martinsburg, W. Va. and into Hagerstown where we went through a couple of antique shops. Following Routes 70 and 40 across the Blue Ridge Mountains we went through Cumberland, Md., crossed the Allegheny Mountains and were in Pennsylvania. We stopped in Hopewood, bought lunch supplies and had a picnic at a rest area. We drove on for some time and crossed the Ohio River into Ohio. Shortly after we passed Zanesville, Ohio, we saw quite a few oil wells pumping crude oil. We passed through Columbus and later arrived in Richmond, Indiana where we spent the night in a motel. We saw one wreck on our way out about eleven miles east of Indianapolis. A tractor-trailer ran into an overpass abutment completely tearing apart the tractor and jamming the trailer against the abutment. As we drive through Indiana the country is becoming flatter and not as many hills and mountains. Through here and Illinois we saw open grain cribs or silos, some still filled with corn, others empty. We crossed the Wabash River and the Vermilion. It had been raining and we ran out of it after we passed Urbana, 111. though it was till cloudy and cool. We passed through lots of farm country where they had large fields of com, wheat, peas and soy beans. We went through Bloomington and shortly before reaching Peoria the overcast skies began to clear; the sun came out and it began -to get warm. After leaving Peoria, we ran into a lot of, detours arid rough road before wet got back on Interstate 80. We crossed the Rock River and farther on crossed the Mississippi River and went into Iowa. About five miles east of Des Moines there was a fire being attended by three fire trucks and a police car. We stopped in Des Moines for supper and drove by the Capitol building. We crossed the Des Moines River and as we continued on our way we saw lots of windmills pumping water to irrigate the land. We crossed the Great Sioux River into Omaha, Nebraska where we saw lots of tall buildings and many modem architectural buildings. We arrived at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Sevalesda, the father and mother-in-law of James. It was a lovely home and we spent the night there then left the next morning, Thursday, for Denver. There was the Platte River and on our way saw lots of lakes and mountains with no trees. We crossed the North Platte River, went into Colorado and an hour later crossed the South Platte River which was almost flooding over the bridge. I saw the way tumble weeds grow as we crossed the prairies; also saw large reservoirs for water storage and passed stock pens containing a thousand or so head of cattle. There were quite a few small pens of a hundred or so head. We arrived in Denver and I got to play with my friends Randy and Gordon Dodson. Friday we visited the Denver Museum where I saw lots of interesting things, and Saturwe visited Rock Canyon outdoor theatre. We also visited Mother Cabrin’s Shrine and further up the mountain we saw Buffalo Bill’s grave and a museum on Lookout Mountain. We also saw Central City. (We includes James Hackley, his son and daughter and Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Burner and daughter Faye of Amissville with whom I would return to Virginia.) I don’t think I will ever forget this trip. We’re having an awful good time. We went through a lot of tunnels and saw a lot of gold mines where people were panning for gold. We stopped in the Silver Slipper Saloon and were entertained by a country band. Then we visited Teller House where we heard an 86 year-old man relate the narrative of the Face on the Floor in the Bar Room. Sunday, June 22 the Burners and I left for'home. We passed a lot of dried up creeks and ravines in Colorado. In Flagler, Colo, we stopped and went to church at the Flagler Baptist Church. After lunch we passed right through Salina, Kan. where a tornado had hit that morning. It really did a lot of damage. We Went doWfi in Abilene to the Eisenhower Center and saw his home town and his grave. We went through the capital city of Kansas, Topeka, on to Kansas City, then into Missouri Call No. 470 Charter No. 6443 National Bank Region No. 5 CONSOLIDATED REPORT OF CONDITION, INCLUDING DOMESTIC SUBSIDIARIES, OF THE Rappahannock National Bank of WASHINGTON in the State of Virginia, At the Close of Business on June 30, 1969 Published in Response to Call Made by Comptroller of the Currency, Under Section 6211, U.S. Revised Statutes ASSETS Cash and due from banks (including none unposted debits) . $ 369,467.06 U.S. Treasury securities . 1,329,038.26 Securities of other U.S. Government agencies and corporations . 496,000.00 Obligations of States and political subdivisions .. 178!491.88 Other securities ....

Red, white and blue lights and balloons along with flags decorated the house and candles in paper bags illuminated the lawn and reflected in the pond. A display of fireworks was enjoyed by many people who sat on the hillside behind the courthouse to watch. where we spent the night at Blue Springs. The next morning, we took Interstate 70 for St. Louis and saw a lot of flood waters on our way, and went through the Gateway of the West. It was a big arch 630 feet high. We went to the top of it and looked out over the city. Crossing the line into Illinois we passed through Troy and spent the night at Effingham. The next morning we stopped at a service station and a dog jumped into the car and wanted to come home with us. He frightened Faye and caused her to jump in a mud puddle. In the city of Brazil there were flood waters everywhere and it stood in the streets 6 or 8 inches deep. Arriving in Ohio we found more water flooding near Columbus. We spent the night in Cambridge, Ohio. The next day took us through Pennsylvania, Maryland and West Virginia and at 5:30 were back in Amissville. I have had a grand vacation, but in a few weeks I plan to go to North Carolina and visit for two weeks. Bench Show Results The Virginia Fox Hunters Association bench show which was held Saturday in Culpeper drew entries from seven states with a total of 68 hounds in the competition. The show began at 7 p.m. with the Warrenton Hunt Showing ten couples of hounds under whip. The hounds responded perfectly in the hands of Dick Bywaters as he paraded them. Bob Apperson of Culpeper was ringmaster and W. H. Lyne acted as master of ceremonies. Results of the show were: Best male puppy, under 6 months, Charles Talley, Louisa; he also had best female puppy; best male puppy 6-12 mo., Lawson Blankenship, Murphy, Va.; same female, Jack Tucker, Crafton, W. Va. Derby male, Bill and Doris Taylor, Fairfax; derby female, Gene Beaver, Concord, N. C.; All age male, Robert Bootner. Vienna; same, female, Gene Beaver, Concord, N. C.; best in show, also Gene Beaver; best opposite sex, Robert Bootner. Gene Beaver had the best pair and Charles Talley the best pack; natural carriage was taken by G. A. Hodge, Churchville, Va. After the show a sqcial hour was enjoyed by those attending. Wheat Price - - - (Continued from Page l) per bushel and the 1969-crop national average loan rate of $1.25 per bushel. Certificate payments to farmers are based on projected production on 43 percent of 1969 wheat acreage allotments. For 1968-crop wheat, certificates worth $1.38 per Read the Want Ads! It Pays! bushel were issued on 40 percent of the projected production of the allotted acres. Certificate payments add substantially to the income farmers receive from marketing their 1969 wheat crop. The $800 million in certificate payments when related to estimated production on the 45 million acres of allotment on participating farms reflects an income, as a national average, of 62 cents on each bushel produced by cooperators, as compared to 55 cents on eligible 1968-crop wheat. In determining total return per bushel for wheat, cooperators divide their certificate payment by their total production to get an average per bushel payment. By adding this to the price they receive in the market, participants in the program find their total return per bushel. CLORE FUNERAL HOME “The Home of -Thoughtful Service” Culpeper, Va.

The money in the trust fund may only be used to pay social benefits and to pay the cost of administering the Social Security Administration. Any funds not currently needed for these purposes may be used to buy U. S. Government bonds. At present the trust fund totals over 28 billion dollars. Estimates covering the next 75 years show that income from contributions and interest in invested assets will be more than enough to finance all present and future benefits as they fall due. Social security is held in an honored trust. It is safely held, and is sufficient to meet the benefits due to all entitled people in the years ahead.

Candidates — (Continued from page 1) philosophy can be described as a combination of liberal and populist rhetoric. His chances for nomination depend upon his ability to form a miniature Roosevelt coalition in Virginia. In view of Virginia’s past political history such an event seems highly unlikely. *The Richmond News Leader, in a study published on August 12, 1955, concluded that differences in the salaries of local officials were due to local conditions, such as recommendations by local governments. Thus, the News Leader concluded, there is no evidence that the State Compensation Board has abused its powers. William C. Battle William C. Battle, age 48, is presently an attorney in Charlottesville, Virginia. The son of former Governor John S. Battle, he is considered by many political analysts to be the front runner in the coming primary election. His philosophy, more than that of the other gubernatorial candidates, approximates the middle of the road. In 1960 Battle managed the presidential., campaign of his wartime friend, John F. Kennedy, in Virginia. Following Kennedy’s election, Battle was appointed ambassador to Australia. There Battle acquired valuable experience in the field of executive administration. In 1966 Battle managed the successful Senatorial campaign of Sen. William B. Spong, Jr. of Portsmouth against U. S. Senator Willis Robertson of Lexington. It is with the Spong-moderate faction of the state Democratic Party that Battle has been most closely associated through the years. Indeed, Battle’s philosophy is of such a nature that he has received support from every faction of the Democratic Party. For example, in one Southside Virginia county Battle has two Ico-campaign managers. One was the manager of A. Willis Robertson’s 1966 senatorial bid; while the other was the campaign manager of William Spong, who wa» Robertson’s younger, and more liberal, challenger. Thus one can conclQde that the political philosophy of Battle has wide anneal Turner-Compton Vows Exchanged Miss Ruby Lee Compton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Compton of Castleton, became the bride of Robert Lee Turner June 28, 1969. He is the son of Mrs. Susie Turner Cockrill of Rixeyville and the late Mr. Turner. The ceremony was performed at three o’clock Sunday afternoon in the Massanova Penecostal Church with the Rev. Archie Clatterbuck officiating. Miss Eunice Wharton of Castleton provided the music. The bride was given in marriage by her uncle Charles Compton of Castleton. Her long white gown was lace over taffeta and she carried a bouquet of carnations. Miss Peggy Smith of Amissville was maid of honor and James Stringfellow of Washington, Va. acted as best man. A reception followed at the couple’s future home in Rixeyville where they are living after a short wedding trip. Some of Battle’s positions on the issues: 1. More consumer representation in state government. 2. Retention of the state sales tax. Although Battle regrets burdens upon the taxpayer, he feels that the sales tax is necessary if Virginia is to provide adequate services to her citizens. 3. Retention of Virginia’s right to work law. Battle feels the right to work law in Virginia has actually helped labor. This is because the existence of the law attracts industry; 4. Opposition to gun control jlegislation. Battle would leave this! i matter to the localities. These are only a few of the I many positions Bill Battle has1 taken over the course of the campaign. In general Battle’s philosophy is one of pragmatic problem-solving. Battle, more than any of the candidates, seems to have avoided identification with specific economic and political interests. Whether Virginia is ready for the middle of! the road is the question his* candidacy will resolve. * * * * Fred Pollard Fred Pollard, age 51, is presently serving as Lieutenant Governor of Virginia. The cousin of former Governor John Garland Pollard, he is generally thought to be the candidate with the strongest ties to the long HEADQUARTERS for Orchard Chemicals We maintain complete inventories and will deliver to your farm. Top Quality Recommended Chemicals CAXXi US . . . for Professional recommendations and Programs. Rappahannock Farmers’ Co-op. j SPERRY’VILI.E, VA. Phone 987-2311 Everyone Can Shop at the Co-Op dominant Byrd organization. Of all the candidates, Pollard has the most experience in State government. From 1949 to 1965 he served as a member of the House of Delegates from the city of Richmond. In 1965 he was elected Lieutenant Governor of Virginia. Indeed, one of Pollard’s major campaign themes has been experience. Apparently it is his conviction that experience in the legislature should be a prerequisite to service as governor. Pollard is the only gubernatorial candidate who has joined a ticket. He has aligned himself with W. Carrington Thompson of Chatham, a candidate for Lieutenant Governor, and Guy O. Farley of Fairfax, a candidate for Attorney General. Although Pollard is said to have close ties to the old guard, his campaign has been marred by defections. In the State Senate whose Democratic members art predominantly organization mbn he hks been endorsed by approximately half of all publicly committed members. In the seventh congressional district, normally a bastion of conservative strength, 20 of 24 county Democratic chairmen have endorsed the opposition. These defections on the part of normally conservative Democraticvoters is attributed to a fear on the part of old guard leaders that Pollard lacks the charisma or leadership to lead the Democrats to victory in the November generalelections Some of Pollard’s positions on the issues: 1. Favors retention of Virginia’s Amissville Area News and Personals Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Settle and their family attended the Isaacks-Weaver wedding Saturday in Brightwood. The Amissville Homemakers Club met Thursday with 13 members present. Miss Judy Burtner, Home Agent, directed the program on Maintaining Mental Health. A workshop meeting is planned for Wednesday, July 16 at Amissville Baptist Church educational rooms and will be on making bread flowers and decoupage. The meeting begins at 1:30 p.m. Mrs. Esther Rucker of Arlington spent four days last right to work law. Pollard believes membership in a union should not be a prerequisite to employment. 2. Retention of sales tax. Pollard feels that revenue from the sales tax is vitally needed to finance the recently expanded role of state government 3. Stronger efforts in education. Like his two opponents, Pollard believes that the key to Virginia’s future lies in an adequate education for its young. 4. Support and strengthen Godwin programs. Pollard campaigns on the progressive record of the Godwin administration. He has pledged to expand and improve on that record. These are but a few of Fred Pollard’s positions. Generally, Pollard stands to the right of his two opponents. More than any of the other candidates he reflects the pro business point of view. Needless to say, the election of Fred Pollard to the governorship will be a signal to the effect that the people of Virginia are satisfied with the status quo. week with Mr. and Mrs. Paul Poling and daughter Cheryl.

We must demonstrate to them that every tax dollar is spent wisely, efficiently and effectively. . .down to the very last penny.

I want it to continue and wish to make my contribution to its continuity and fruition. The next administration will have to come to grips with hard problems. I am willing to assume the responsibility of helping to make and execute the necessary hard decisions. We must go forward witlt continued improvements in education, in mental health programs, highways, and other vital state services. We must insure a Virginia free of crime, disorders and violence. . .a Virginia where a person feels secure in his person and his property. . a Virginia where everyone can share in the bountiful potential of the future of our state. As a part of the next administration of Virginia, I pledge myself to strive toward the fulfillment of these objectives. GUY Farley for Attorney General I am a candidate for Attorney General because as a former prosecuting attorney and a school board attorney, I am concerned about the growing lack of respect for law, particularly among some of our young people. I believe that if there are those on our college campuses whose purpose it is to disrupt education, they should not be permitted to remain and if they violate the law, they should be prosecuted the same as anyone else who violates the law. No one is above the law. Law and order should be coupled with Justice, but we should be thinking about Justice for the taxpayers who pay for our educational institutions, for the responsible young people who are there to gain an education and Justice for the responsible teachers who are there to give them an education. As a member of the General Assembly for three terms and as a former municipal judge, I am also deeply concerned about law enforcement Instead of talking about police brutality, we should be talking about criminal brutality and instead of being so concerned about making convicts more comfortable, we should be concerned about the plight of the law enforcement officer who often finds himself in more difficulty in making an arrest, than the ciiminal he is apprehending The time has come for the silent majority to speak out. The time has come to take the handcuffs off the police and put them on the criminal. As your Attorney General, I will put my experience to work for you to build better police community relationships, to .lOStiJI r.espect for jaw,and to.yvork.for law and order in our state. keep Virginia in , expenenced hands The best choice for Virginia RAPPAHANNOCK COMMITTEE FOR POLLARD - THOMPSON ■ FARLEY Mr. & Mrs. Sherman Williams Mr. & Mrs. James F.
