Local Gov't Costs $175 Per Capita Just how much it costs, per capita, to keep the wheels of government turning in Rappahannock County, as compared with the cost in other communities, is brought out in a new study released by the Department of Commerce. The figures are contained in a voluminous report, the first of its kind since 1962, based upon the a test Census of Governments. Such surveys are made every five fears. In it are detailed, for each of lie 3,000-odd counties in the Jnited States, the revenues, ‘xpenditures and outstanding iebt incurred in connection with ocal government operations. Indicated is how much is spent n each area, per resident, for schools, roads, police and fire protection, health, welfare, lousing, sanitation, general idministration and the many ither functions performed. In Rappahannock County, the figures show, the cost of such services amounted to $175 in the /ear for every man, woman and child in the county. The comparable cost, in other larts of the country, was $299 per capita and, in the State of Virginia, $217. Nationally, the outlay for these local level operations came to $59.5 billion in the year, as against $39.8 billion in 1962. The rising cost of government has been a problem in almost every locality, with public payrolls, the price of materials, the demand for services and the cost , borrowing,, all, .owing upward;*'' "' ■ **JA-’ 5 In an effort to meet these rising expenses, most communities have had to tum to bigger taxes, special fees and a variety of miscellaneous charges and tolls. For Rappahannock County, the report shows that general revenue in the year came to $124 per capita as compared with the $175 per capita for expenditures. Of the revenue, $58 came from local taxes, fees and charges and the rest from state and Federal payments. Many governments have found it necessary to go into bigger debt to raise money for necessary capital improvements. The general debt in Rappahannock County is $76 per capita, according to the report. Elsehwere in the United States, local government .debt averages $410 per capita and, in Virginia, $305.

According to “weather girl” Lucille vSSpprS and firifttd the tacfv, fifiiftg reads, jeopardizing traffic'' and making the task of snow removal a gigantic one. Winds continued in much of Rappahannock through Saturday and left secondary roads in this shape. Highway Maintenance Supervisor Douglas Bywaters was duly initiated in that capacity as he assumed full responsibility of this work a few weeks ago. He Feed Grain Base Notices to Farmers Will Be Sent Out in January by ASC Producers in Rappahannock County will receive notice of their feed grain bases and an explanatory leaflet on the 1970 feed grain program in January, according to H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committee. Sign-up period for the voluntary farm programs including wheat as well as feed grains - will be February 2 through March 20. The 1970 feed grain program will be much like the 1969 program, the ASC committee chairman said. Provisions of the 1970 wheat program was announced earlier. Mr. Barksdale gave the following details on the feed grain program: The deer hunting season in Rappahannock County closed Monday and on the last day of the season either bucks or doe could be taken. This group of hunters from Ohio hunting on the game preserve managed by A. H. Keyset had excellent results. They are Bob Miller, leas Conkle, Dave Albert, George Luker, Cletus Wise and Robert Alberta. At extreme left is Mr. Keyset. At least 179 deer were killed in Rappahannock on tha final day of the aaaaon and 120 of them were checked by F. D. Coffey at his Esso Service Center in Sperryville, Total kill for th* season set a record here with more than 330 accounted for. The next high record kill was in 1960 when the lake was set at 288. Only 2 bear were killed in Rappahannock thia season. 1. Acreage diversion and diversion payments. Minimum diversion at 20 percent of a farm’s feed grain base acreage will be required for program participation. No payment will be made for this first 20 percent diversion, except for small farms. Payments will be made for additional diversion of corn, grain sorghum, and barley. Maximum acreage that can be diverted for payment will be the larger of 30 percent of a farm’s feed grain base or 25 acres less the qualifying 20 percent diversion. Payment rate for this additional diversion will be based on 40 percent of the total county price support (loan plus support payment) times a farm’s projected yield of the crops involved. No advance diversion payments will be made. Upper limits will be established on the per-bushel rate which will be paid for the additional voluntary diversion of feed grain (Continued on Page 2) Hunting Accidents Increased in 1969 A total of 44 hunting accidents, five of which resulted in fatalities, have been recorded as of year’s end, according to Game Commission Safety Officer J. N. Kerrick. At this same time last year only 28 hunting-related accidents had been reported. Largest single cause-factor involved the practice of transporting a loaded firearm in a vehicle, with the accident occurring either during removal of the weapon from the auto or while replacing it. Of the individuals involved in accidents this year only 3 had ever participated in the firearms sa fWy_juMrr»e s which are conducted by Game Commission personnel Or persons trained by the Commission. Since Virginia began hunter safety training in October of 1961 a total of 63,303 persons have participated. Of this total, including this year, only 15 have ever been involved in any type of hunting accident and none has ever become a fatality. ) remarked that it appeared much easier when someone thf_ doing it.

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 (ta, advance) $3.00 in, Rappahannock and adjacent counties: $3.50 East coast; $4.00 mid west; $4.50 West. Letter To Editor Dear Rappahannock Citizens:The entire county is faced with a trash removal problem, Sometime ago your ./Board ol Supervisors leased a dump site near Amissville and employed a company to remove the non-bumables using the dumpster system that has proven very satisfactory in many parts of the country. To date this system has not worked satisfactorily for two reasons: 1. The company removing the non-burnable trash from the containers has not picked up the material on a tegular schedule. 2. The general public has abused the system using it for materials not intended to be removed. Your Board assures you that the trash company will fulfill it’s contract or we will try and find one that will. We sincerely request that the citizens use the dump and containers using the following discussed guidelines. Anything that can be burned, bum at home. Over half of the materials placed in the dumpsters are simple burnable materials. The added volume increases the cost to you the taxpayers and overloads the containers. This also causes a fire hazard at the county dump. Do not leave items too large for the containers at the container location. Take these items directly to the county dump at Amissville. Items too large for the containers cannot be packed into the truck. Therefore they are left at the location making it unsightly. Do not put garbage into these containers, this creates a health hazard at the containers and dump. If the container is full do not leave non-bumable trash outside the container. Materials left outside the containers generally get scattered all over the general location. Do not put brush and 'burnable* in the county dump. 'This cnStM^SftlW hai*«i.-' » * We feel the dumpster system with the central dump is the only practical system of non-bumable trash removal that the county can afford. Even this method is expensive. Let us consider what will happen if this removal system is not made to work. In an average week two large compressed truckloads of trash are collected. Hiink what this would do to our roadsides, rivers, and streams it this material were not collected and buried at the dump. We feel that you want to keep our county clean, healthy, and beautiful. We also feel a large majority of you want some system of non-bumable trash removal. Please use the dump containers as they were intended, using the above suggestions. If each of you will do this on an individual basis our dumping system will be a success. Sincerely, Newbill Miller Chairman, Rappahannock Board of Supervisors Dry, Winter Weather Can Jolt the Unwary WASHINGTON-Dry winter days can shock innocent victims. Static electricity often jars the unwary who walk across a carpeted floor and then touch a metal desk, door knob, or filing cabinet, the National Geographic Society says. Some people store more static electricity than others. The family of a highly charged Briton hugs him after the working day only if he remembers to knock on metal before coming home. “I always touch the metal filing cabinet at the office,” he says. “There’s a flash and then I’m down to normal.” Clothing Sets Off Charge Substantial charges sometimes occur when clothing of certain materials is suddenly separated. Military personnel have been cautioned on the danger, especially when handling explosive fuels. Unlike current electricity which flows through a wire, the static variety spreads over the surface of ill objects. Both contain electrically charged particles of the atom, fnowniasefSir?®. ’’fhl particles are so small that thirty-thousand trillion trillion weigh less than an Dunce. Six million trillion must pass through the filament of a 100-watt bulb to keep it burning one second. In the home and office, friction between shoes and rugs sometimes builds up an excess number of the negatively charged electrons in the shoes and hence the body. The extra electrons ROUND and SQUARE DANCE ' Saturday, January 10,1970 9:00 ’til 1:00 New Sperryville Fire Hall Music ly THE VIRGINIA TRAVELERS Sponsored by \ SPERRYVILLE FIRE COMPANY \ . n^s^NO CHILDREN ADMITTED^^^ THE WHITE SHOP Sale Starts Thursday, January 8 - Reductions In All Departments - / F.

By absorbing moisture, the air and many materials become more conductive, allowing static charges to leak off. In contrast, lightning,one of the most powerful forms of static electricity, seems more prevalent on hot, muggy nights. Builds in Clouds A thundercloud somehow works as a wind-driven dynanjo. Studies suggest that positive and [negative charges build up until their mutual attraction becomes so great that electrons shoot from one pole to the other. The current generates light, heat, and sound. Lightning bolts may measure several miles in length, but are only about one to six inches in diameter. They flash from cloud to cloud and ground to cloud, as well as from cloud to earth, traveling up to 55 miles a second. A lightning bolt’s heat combines nitrqgen and oxygen. The nitrogen oxides dissolve in rain, forming dilute nitric acid and a form of oxygen called ozone that gives air its pungent odor during a storm. The acid reacts with minerals in the earth to form plant-nourishing nitrates. The less spectacular, everyday form of static electricity helps man, too. It has been put to work in nuclear research, industrial painting processes, and office copying equipment. NOTICE The staff of the Welfare Department wishes to express its gratitude to all the organizations and individuals who contributed to the Christmas /fund or furnished Christmas boxes to the needy. The combined efforts provided a happy Christmas for twenty-three of the county’s children in foster care and to twenty children in families, besides providing cheer for some of our elderly folk. Seal Campaign Realizes 85.7% of Goal With $36,435.00 or 85.7% received toward the Christmas Seal Campaign goal of $45,200.00, a big “Thank you” goes out to the 13,435 who answered their letters.

Spearhead an active nationwide fight against Air Pollution. Conduct a campaign of education on the health hazards of cigarette smoking, especially among teenagers. Support education about serious lung disease. Sponsor medical research in [Respiratory Disease. I Wrecks— (Continued from Page 1) were involved in a slight collision in front of Baldwin’s Grocery just west of Washington on January 2. According to Trooper R. M. Dodson, the bus was making a left turn into the store when the car attempted to pass. Otho Clifton Hill jr. of Culpeper was operator of the bus and John Wesley Gallagher of Culpeper was driving a 64 Plymouth. Damage was set at $250 to the car and $25 to the bus. There were no injuries. Two vehicles were involved in a collision on Route 522 east of Sperryville on December 29. A 62 Dodge tank truck operated by James Thomas Mastin of Richardsville and owned by F. R. Simpson, Inc. of Culpeper and a 67 Chevrolet pickup operated by Gary Leon Spielman of Keedysville, Md. ran together. Both were traveling south as the tanker made a left tum into a driveway and the pickup attempted to pass. The pickup truck was owned by C. W. Wright Construction Company of Richmond. Spielman was charged with failing to yield the right of way. He sustained cuts of the face and bruised left shoulder. A hit and run crash occurred on Route 231 on January 3 at the Rappahannock- Madison county line. The 63 Ford operated by Robert Bernard Lillard ol Sperry ville was struck by another vehicle which failed to stop. Damage was estimated at $600. A single car crash occurred in Amissville at the intersection of Routes 211 and 642 on December 30. A 68 Ford was forced off the road by an unidentified car. Leslie William Wolff of Hagerstown, Md. was the operator of the Ford which was damaged to the extent of $900. Mrs. Evelyn Wolff sustained contusions of the forehead and leg and was taken to Fauquier Hospital, Warren ton. Trooper P. P. Dicks investigated the above crashes. “I met the man that stood at the gateway of the year and asked for a light that I might tread safely into the unknown. He told me to go out into the dark and place my hand into the hand of God, that I would find that better than a light and safer than a known way.” We do not know just when the year begins. There had to be an arbitrary time set for the purpose of keeping dates, but, when does one’s year begin? The first day of spring as with the ancients, your birthday, the day that loved one said those words that changed your whole life? Only God knows when He started our planet spinning in its orbit, that was the beginning of our earth years. When? Does it really matter? Let’s go back to the quote ‘place your hand into the hand of God - better than light • safer than a known way’. As we go into this new period of time, the unknown, let us place our faith in Him. He will let us walk it> the light of His love, safely into THE WAY. V ASC Notices— (Continued from Page 1) acres. The maximum payments will be: for corn, 60 cents per bushel; for grain sorghum, 65 cents per bushel (not hundred weight); for barley, 45 cents per bushel. 2. Price-support loans and payments. National average price-support loan rates on all feed grains will be the same as in 1969. However, com loan rates, while unchanged, will be at $1.08 per bushel, “No. 2” basis - which is equal to the 1969 level of $1.05 for average quality. The national average loan levels of the other feed grains will be: grain sorghum, $1.61 per hundred weight; barley, 83 cents per bushel; oats, 63 cents per bushel; rye, $1.02 per bushel. (Price-support is required by law for oats and rye, but there are no provisions for acreage limitations.) r ~ Price-support payment rate will 'be: corn,’30 centsper bushel; grain sorghum, 53 cents per hundredweight; barley, 20 cents per bushel. Price-support payment for a farm is arrived1 at by multilying the per bushel price-support payment times the farm’s projected yield times the smaller of the planted acreage or 50 percent of the farm’s feed grain base. 3.

Architect’s rendering of the Hall of Valor Civil War museum and memorial now being built by Virginia Military Institute at New Market, Virginia. The museum, a combination of native Shenandoah Valley stone and weathering steel, is at the site of the legendary battle of New Market, where a company of teen-age VMI cadets helped turn the tide for the Confederate forces of Gen. John C. Breckenridge on May IS, 1864. The building will be completed next spring, with dedication scheduled for May 14. Memorial Being Built in New Market uecK tne Mail ot valor witn rugged, weathered steel - bold enough to help symbolize the courage of the young men the New Market Battlefield Memorial seeks to honor. That was part of Richmond architect William Moseley’s intent as he designed the $1 million building now under construction at the site of one of the Civil War’s most legendary battles. Moseley, partner-in-charge for Richmond’s Marcellus Wright & Partners, architects for the project, said the Hall of Valor presented a number of ^difficult architectural problems, ^ chiefly designing a contemporary building on a rustic, rugged Civil War battlefield and creating a i suitable “monumental” effect, to remind the visitor of what took place at the site. The building will memorialize the astonishing courage of the company of teen-age cadets from Virginia Military Institute, who were baptized in battle and helped turn the tide in the Confederate victory at New Market on May 15, 1864. The Hall of Valor, scheduled for dedication next May 14, was made possible by VMI alumnus, George R. Collins, of Charleston, W,V«^whoM estate Included a fund of almost' $3 million for the purpose. Construction of the museum largely has been a Richmond-based effort, with Thorington Construction Company as general contractor. Fabrication of steel sections was done by Liphart Steel Company. The structure is a combination of native stone and ornamental weathering steel. The steel, U. S. Steel’s Cor-Ten, literally will “paint" itself a rich dark rust color, through oxidation, to blend with its rustic Shenandoah Valley surroundings. The steel, a series of structural beams and plates arching more than 20-feet upward from ground Harry R. Burke Harry Richard Burke, 54, of Boston died December 23, 1969 at the University of Virginia Hospital, Charlottesville. He was the son of the late Richard Burke and Mrs. Reggie Smith Burke who is the only surviving member of the family. Jesse L. Smith of Boston is his uncle. A funeral service was held at the Geest funeral chapel. Culpeper at 2 p.m. on the 27th with the Rev. John McKay officiating. Interment was in Fairview Cemetery.

A theatre inside will be used for showing a 12-minute motion picture telling the cadets’ story. Flanking the theatre area will be two wings of stone and precast concrete housing Civil War exhibits and a reception area. A memorial area dedicated to the cadets will connect the three sections. “The curvilinear design suggests the kind of movement to memorialize the battle charge of the cadets,” Moseley said. “We wanted the kind of valor which is portrayed in attack ... motion ... dash ... going forward ... youth on the march,” he said. ff “Along with the shape, we knew that color would be Important. The stone was a fairly easy choice, because of the way it reflected the landscape. “When we chose the steel, we were looking for something symbolic -- a rugged courageous material. And what better link could we have with the weathered, rusted battlefield relics on the site than a weathered, rust-colored steel?” While gaining wide architectural acceptance elsewhere in such major structures as Chicago’s Civic Center and New York’s Ford Foundation Building, the Hall of Valor marks the first significant use of weathering steel in Virginia. Initially, Moseley recognized EVERY ITEM ON SALE at SMITH’S w BETT^B^MEN’S WEAR 220 EAST MA1\ ST1' — FRONT 'KOVAL, VA. _ FRONT ROYAL. VIRGINIA ! he steel will put its “worst foot" orward, forming a bright oxide :oat as soon as it Is exposed to he air. From that point, lowever, it darkens to form its ■usset patina, steadily improving ts surface with age. “I suppose we could have :hosen a painted surface. We were, through, looking for a latural material. Our beauty will :ome quite naturally. About the .ime it would be necessary to epaint a painted surface, the iteel will be at its very best -• naintenance free for its lifetime.” The native stone used in the juilding was blasted from the Vtassanutten Mountains directly sast of the site. Moseley said the stone, which is rust colored, blends perfectly with the Cor-Ten. At Liphart Steel, welding and :utting the big steel sections was •he most unique and challenging lob in the firm’s 31-year history, according to its president, F. E. Weisensale. “We had to give this steel tender, loving care. It was a white glove job for us,” he said. “When we do a big structural steel job like the Allied Chemical headquarters complex in Hopewell, the steel is usually covered by some other material. “On the Hall of Valor, we knew that our steel would be used for ornamental purposes, that our work was going on display at New Market. That meant all our shop work had to be letter perfect. “We enjoy this kind of thing. We’re the kind of company that likes to take unusual jobs, but this was the most unique we’ve had. Our people -- all of themdid a great job.” To assure that the steel wttl w eather evenly and as attractively is possible, Wetsensale explained, welds were ground smooth at Liphart’s Richmond plant, before shipment to New Market. After erection, the steel was completely sandblasted to assure even weathering as the^ oxidation process began. The New Market project is the second major war memorial to be built in Virginia ty Thorington. In 1955,f* the firm constructed the widely known Virginia War Memorial at Richmond. That structure, with its famed “Shrine of Memory,” commemorates the service and sacrifice of Virginians in World War II and Korea.

Large Reductions in Every Dept • - ALL SALES FINAL - - Concerned about rising health care costs? You’ll feel better after you've read this! rou re in me trap, 100. inesiCKenmg spiral or living costs. Oh sure, there are cheaper cuts of meat and do-it-yourself repairs. There are fewer luxuries and much more of make-it-do or do-without. But there just isn’t a home-made remedy for cutting down on the cost of health care. To put health care off is more expensive whether you think in terms of dollars, or more importantly, lives. To do without health care is unthinkable. And you can’t do anything about it. But we can. And we are. In fact, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Virginia are leading the way in holding the line on health care costs. Working with hospitals, physicians and health care officials, we have undertaken a number of important cost control projects. These include: 1. Pre-admission Testing—Members are encouraged to have routine lab tests made a day or so before entering the hospital as patients. This reduces cost to the patient and permits greater use of needed hospital beds. 2. Preventing Duplicate Payment—Blue Cross and Blue Shield have launched a program designed to prevent a person from being reimbursed more than once and profiting from his illness or injury. This will discourage unnecessary payments and use of medical facilities. 3. Area-wide Planning—Blue Cross and Blue Shield are working with representatives of hospitals, physicians, business and government in determining where new health care facilities are being located- and the type of facilities needed most. This program can result in the saving of millions of dollars and more efficient service to patients. 4. Cost Control Program for Hospitals Blue Cross of Virginia has initiated a new incentive program to encourage hospitals to improve the utilization of beds and other facilities and to take steps that will measurably hold the « line on costs. This new program has already shown important results that will benefit all Virginians. 5. Administration -By consolidating and coordinating all activities into one central headquarters building from the five previously scattered ones Blue Cross and Blue Shield are achieving a considerable savings amounting to more than $100,000 a year. Furthermore the building will permit future expansion at minimal cost 6. Cost Saving Computers Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Virginia have developed the most advanced data pro cessing system in the nation to handle healthcare claims. With direct hook-ups to hospitals, doctors and druggists. xne system nas snarpiy reaucea paper worn, aoministrative costs and has speeded claim payments. In addition, the computers are set up to review all claims to make sure they are reasonable and proper. 7. Out-of-Hospital Care—We are designing benefits to include the use of extended care facilities, nursing homes and convalescent centers, where the cost is generally about half that of regular hospitals. These benefits are also planned to cover diagnostic tests, minor surgery, X-ray exams, and other out-of-hospital services. This program reduces the demand for hospital beds and will result in significant savings for everyone. 8. Greatest Protection at Lowest Cost—Except for the small cost of administering the program, every dollar of income to Blue Cross and Blue ShiaHT-coes to pay hospital and medical bills. This is why BtaewCross and Blue Shield are able to provide members with the greatest possible protection at the lowest cost. Because of all the emphasis on cost control, physicians' charges in Virginia have actually risen less than the Cost of Living Index. But in spite of everyone’s efforts, health care costs still continue to climb. Part of this is due to increased construction costs, increased labor costs and higher costs of drugs and materials. Today’s unprecedented demand for hospital and medical care is also contributing to the increase. But we should remember, too, that a good part of the increase is simply because our hospitals are doing a better job now of restoring our health and prolonging our lives. Their long years of research, their new skills and their remarkable new equipment are paying off for us. After all. isn't this what we wanted? We’re witnessing, and we re really part of, the most dramatic and most successful era of health care the world has ever known. It’s an exciting time to be alive. Many of us wouldn’t be, were it not for these remarkable medical advances. Ask someone with a transplanted kidney or a repaired heart, "Is it worth it?” We pledge to do all we can to keep health care costs from rising any higher. We will examine every suggestion, and we will initiate any project that promises to reduce rates for you, our subscribers. But we also pledge, just as firmly, to provide complete pro tection so that you and the members of your family will get all the care and treatment you need wherever and whenever the need arises That’s what Blue Cross and Blue Shield are all about and it’s why we say Blue Cross and Blue Shield are with you all the way. . ,, BLUE CROSS «» BLUE SHIELD Of VMftttNlA or VlPKftlNIA With you thfwgy
