Redistricting and Land Use Tax Continue Main Topics for Assembly Delegate Duncan C. Gibb The problem of redistricting continues to be the primary matter of concern of the members the General Assembly. Committees from both the House and Senate have been meeting frequently in an attempt to resolve this question in the most equitable manner and still meet the mandate of the “one man-one vote” rule established by the Supreme Court of the United States. A committee in the House of Delegates has recommended that Fauquier and Warren be transferred into a new district with Clarke, Frederick, and the City of Winchester and that two delegates be elected from this district at large. Rappahannock County will be transferred into another new district which will also include Orange, Madison, and Culpeper Counties. A public hearing was held on a bill to authorize the governing bodies of the localities to tax on the basis of use rather than fair market value lands devoted to agriculture, horticulture, forest, and open space. This bill gives each local governing body the option of selecting this method of taxation and I am in favor of this. The House passed a bill which authorized the local governing Sperryville VFD Changes Carnival Dates Sperryville Fire Department announces that the dates of the annual firemens’ carnival are set for Wednesday through Saturday, July 21 to 24.

Starks of Woodville was found guilty on two charges of manslaughter in Rappahannock County Circuit Court when the cases were heard by Judge R. V. Snead Monday, February 8. The 20-year-old Negro youth faced the charges as the result of a single-vehicle traffic crash September 13, 1970. Starks was operating a 1957 Chevrolet which crashed on Route 211 east of Massies Corner. Two passengers, Melvin Dunn, 16 and Leroy Freeman, 17, both of Washington, Va., were killed.

This bill will now go to the Senate where it will be referred to a committee for consideration and action. A bill which caused quite a bit of debate on the floor of the House of Delegates was one which would make it mandatory that women serve on juries. Under the existing law a woman has the option of serving or not but under the bill as proposed she would not have this option. After much debate this bill was defeated. Mrs. Tuma Hostess For Garden Club The Rappahannock County Garden Club will meet Wednesday, Feb. 17 at 2 p.m. at the home of Mrs. Richard Tuma near Washington, Va.

Jenkins, Jr., Washington, Va., as local [forest warden. Mr. Ennis Jenkins jwill assist in forest fire control activities in the Washington area. !Chief Forest Warden *C. W. Jenkins, in commenting on the [appointment of Mr. Ennis Jenkins, advised that contrary to popular notions, forest wardens are not salaried employees of the State. They are public spirited j men who have agreed to mobilize [local man-power and fight forest fires in their community. They are [paid by the State on an hourly : basis only while investigating and [suppressing forest fires. Mr. | Ennis Jenkins will be given a (commission by Governor which | will convey the authority to hire ! forest fire fighters and to help [enforce the State forest fire laws jin accordance with instructions |fronj the State Forester and Chief Forest Warden C. W. Jenkins. Forest wardens have the authority to summon able bodied men for forest fire fighting. Any forest fire occurring in this vicinity should be promptly reported to Mr. Ennis Jenkins or Mr. Clifton Jenkins. Similar Traffic Cr In Short Time Spa A series of traffic crashes, seven in a four day period, have dominated the scene in Rappahannock, though no series injury has resulted from them. Some, however not all, have resulted from icy road conditions. At 1:15 a.m. on February 5, James Robert Tyson of Oklahoma City, Okla. skidded on the ice in his 69 Chevrolet, ran off the left of the road and struck a pole. This accident occurred on Route 211 two and a half miles east of Amissville. Tyson is a Marine stationed at Quantico. Damage to his vehicle was estimated at $1,400, but no serious injury resulted. The same day at 12:45 p.m. two miles south of Sperryville on Route 231 a single car crash of almost identical circumstances iFire and Rescuef Squad Notes [ Sperryville Rescue Squad took Mrs. Thelma Dickerson and daughter Angela of Pittsburgh, Pa. from a wreck in Sperryville Saturday night to Warren Memorial Hospital, Front Royal Monday, Jim B. Fincham was taken to the University of Virginia Hospital, Charlottesville and returned to his home. On the same day. B. M. Varner, was brought from the University Hospital to his home in Sperryville.

Damage to his car was estimated at $1,000. Dodson was charged with improper equipment, namely two very slick front tires. The same evening at 9:45 p in. Continued on page 2 River Clean-up Set For February 21 In an effort to clean up a portion of the Thornton River, members of the Canoe Cruisers Association from the Washington, D. C. area will be in Rappahannock to pick up trash on the stream between Fletcher's Mill and Rock Mills on Sunday, February 21. All interested groups and invididuals are encouraged wo help with this project. The CCA members will canoe this stretch and pick up as much trash in and along the stream banks as possible. They will deposit it at predetermined places along along the way where it will be hauled away. Additional people either in canoes or walking the river banks could aid in this worthy project. Mrs. Ronald Reese of Baltimore, spokesman for the group, says there should be around 25 association members. Hopefully there will be as many local people interested in cleaning up this stretch of the beautiful but abused stream. The Thornton has been recommended for inclusion in Virginia’s Scenic Rivers program. It deserves to be treated as such. The group will meet at Fletcher’s Mill about 10 a.m., Sunday the 21st of February unless the weather prohibits it. The 28th is the alternate date. For more information contact Irvin Kenyon 825-3653. Spicers Murder Charge Dismissed Following a hearing in Culpeper j County Court Friday, a murder charge against Russell W. Spicer Urf-* Amissville was dismisssed Spicer had been charged with thf shooting and subsequent death oi Ned R. Stringfellow. The shooting occurred January 12 at Spicer’s home and Stringfellow succumbec in Fauquier Hospital, Warrentor on the 18th of January. Spicer admitted shooting Stringfellow when questioned by authorities and gave them the 22 calibre pistol which he said he used. According to testimony given by members of the families, a continuing disagreement between the two men existed and Stringfellow was aware there was a trespass warrant issued for him which had not been served. A motion was made by Spicer’s attorney for dismissal on the grounds that he was acting to protect hi« home when he fired the shots. The Commonwealth’s Attorney concurred and the judge ordered the charge dismissed. iWjiflyjCompany Gives Details About Proposed/Rpwer Transmission Line Whal is the ‘‘Riverton-Boston' project'.' It is a project to build a 138.000 volt transmission line from our Riverton generating station near Front Royal to a proposed new substation m the area called Boston in Culpeper; County. The line will cross; through parts of Warren. Rappahannock and Culpeper! Counties. Why is this new transmission! line needed? Because Potomac Kdisouls; customers in Rappahannock.! Madison, Creene and Orange counties are constantly increasing j their use of electricity (as are! their counterparts throughout our service area) and this line is needed to meet their) requirements for electric power, j The average use of electricity by j our customers in this area has doubled in the last ten years. Who will benefit from the line'.' All of our customers in the area, including homeowners and farmers who make up the majority, will benefit from this line. Here’s the customer breakdown at the end of 1970: nappaiicumui;a v^uuiilv . i,u ii residential; 282 commercial; 10 industrial. Madison County: 1,852 residential; 311 commercial; 6 industrial. Greene County: 1,016 residential; 127 commercial; 4 industrial. Orange County: 396 residential; 55 commercial; 1 industrial. Just what will the line do for these customers? Basically, it will assure them continued, reliable electric service. We made studies in 1968 and 1969 that showed that voltages at substations serving these counties would be so low by 1972 that regulating devices could not provide voltages to oui customers that are within standards of acceptable voltage variation limits. Low voltage can cause lights to flicker, TV pictures to shrink, etc., and can cause damage to electrical motors such as those on refrigerators or freezers. With this new line, customers will have reliable service for all their electrical needs. How long would the line be? A little over 30 miles long. It would begin at the Riverton generating station north of Front Royal in Warren County and continue south through Rappahannock County to Boston substation located in Culpeper County. About 8 miles of the line would be in Warren County, 22 miles in Rappahannock, and less than 1 mile in Culpeper. Wii.il I..,..! >' ; r .m . .! i)l' U ,ed 1 iit ,1 .

According to the zoning ordinances a modular home [which was to be brought into the county by Robert M. Gamble Jr. of Skyline Ski Area is a trailer. Gamble had purchased the unit jafter securing a permit for a house and was having it pulled into the county. However, when j the trailer movers applied to the ! State Highway Department fora moving permit they were granted one only to the county line jbecause the zoning ordinances ' prohibit trailers. In the meantime the building permit was . jsuspended pending further . I investigation of the mobile unit.

Buntin was in authority at the crashes above. Monday morning a single-car crash occurred at the county line east of Amissville because of icy hazardous conditions. ASCS Announces REAP Signup H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee today announced that February 8, 1971 was the opening date for the spring signup of the Rural Environmental Assistance Program (REAP), formerly known as the Agricultural Conservation Program (ACP) in Rappahannock County. The practices which will be authorized in this signup will be those concerning the establishment of permanent vegetative cover, planting forestry trees and shrubs, improving vegetative cover, water impoundment reservoirs, and improving stands of forest trees. Mr. Barksdale explained that neither the State nor county REAP Development Groups had completed the full slate of conservation and pollution abatement practices that would be offered in the county. These practices will be announced as soon as they are developed. The practices listed in the spring signup are those which need to be started now. Costs for carrying out these approved practices will be shared with farmers. Further details will be given at the time County Veterans Slated to Receive Insurance Dividends Some 60 of Rappahannock County’s war veterans will be better off to the tune of approximately $4,000 in the months ahead, according to figures from Washington. The money, a record amount, represents the payment of dividends due them under their GI insurance policies. They and the other veterans of World War I and World War II who are holders of such policies will share in a distribution of $275,000,000, the Veterans Administration reports. Those veterans who saw service solely in the Korean War or in the Vietnam War will not be eligible for any part of this melon because of the type of insurance they have. The majority of the recipients are veterans who are covered by National Service Life Insurance, which was issued for World War II service The others who will participate are World War I vets who hold U. S. Government Life Insurance policies. The 60 men and women in Rappahannock County who will be on the receiving end comprise about one-fourth of the local World War veterans, listed at 240 in the latest tabulation by the Veterans Administration. Those who saw service in the first World War will get checks averaging $122 apiece. The others will receive about $64 each, on average. The overall total of $4,000 in local payments will generate added business activity in the area,It is expected, as the money circulates and re-circulates. Nationally, according to the VA, there are close to 4,000,000 veterans with World War II policies and 163,400 veterans of World War I who have retained their GI insurance and will share in the distribution. What they will be receiving, it is explained, is a return of part of the premiums they have paid of their insurance policies. The refund became possible because the death rate among exservicemen has been lower than was expected when the premium rate was set and because the interest earned by the insurance trust funds was greater than usual. Rappahannock County veterans will receive their checks automatically on the anniversary dates of their policies, the VA states. the farmer files his request at the county ASCS office. The Rural Environmental Assistance Program is designed to put greater emphasis on practices to reduce water pollution. Water retaining and retarding measures on farms are a major factor in reducing pollution from agricultural, wastes. State and county REAP Development Groups will give much consideration to practices that include such installations as dams and ponds, permanent cover, waterways, buffer strips, and tree planting. Applications for the spring practices listed above should be filed at the county ASCS office as soon as possible after February 8, 1971. Applicants are cautioned not to begin work until they have filed for their cost-shares with the county committee. In making this announcement for the Rappahannock County ASC Committee, Mr. Barksdale emphasized that practices performed under the Rural Environmental Assistance Program by Virginia farmers will be of great value im solving our conservation and environmental problems. Utility Facts - - (Continued from page 1) as it exists, and the fair market value of the property subject to the power line easement. Do surveyors trespass on private property to mark the route of such a line? Not intentionally. Surveyors inadvertently began working on one property along the route before the owner was contacted for permission. But, this is unusual. The Company makes every effort to contact property owners personally, by phone, or by letter to secure thei/ permission before any survey work is started. , Are property owners told what the survey is for? Yes. We give them all the information we have about the project, including the type of line, the proposed route, the Monday, February 15th Groups of Ladies Florsheim SHOES and others 1 /3 Off and 1/2 PRICE All Men’s SHOES Reduced Some 1 /2 PRICE All Winter CLOTHES - Mens and Womens i PRICE or 1 /3 to 1 /5 OFF YOU CANT GO WRONG Quality Shoes & Ready-To-Wear 141 E. Davis Street 825-9066 Culpeper. Virginia 22701 amount of right-of-way required, etc. How was the route of the line selected? Various factors were considered in determining the route. Among these factors was a detailed study of the topography of the area. This included use of aerial photos showing boundary lines, land use, vegetation, etc. We also secured the latest information on public works and facilities. We used detailed topographic maps prepared by the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. We also used ground surveys and on-site examinations of the area. In locating the line, we made use of draws along the lower extremes of hills which will tend to screen the line from public view. Wherever possible, we avoided routing the line up, over or along the tops of ridges. The line is located to reduce hindrance to the individual property owner, while keeping in mind the criteria of the total project. Other factors considered were the present and probable future land use, relationship of the line to the facilities of the public and governmental^agencies concerned, desirable' highway crossing points, aesthetic impact and, of course, the economics of construction and maintenance. What was done to avoid conflict with historical sites along the route? The president of the Rappahannock County Historical Society was contacted and informed us that there was no conflict between the line route and historical sites in the County. Could the line be put underground? Yes, but the cost would be prohibitive. Our estimates indicate that undergrounding in this case could be as much as 8 to 10 times more costly than standard overhead construction. Doesn’t Virginia Electric Power Company now sell power to PE in this area? Yes. We have an agreement with VEPCO by which we can receive up to 12,000 kva. We, in turn, supply a similar amount to VEPCO in the Strasburg area. They have indicated to us, however, that because of load growth in their area it is highly unlikely that they would be in a position to provide any additional power to us. Will the line cause radio and TV interference? It has been our company’s experience that transmission lines of this type are not a source of interference to radio Of television reception. In those few- isolated cases where customers have complained of interference,, .the company has been abfe'tfi readily correct the situation to the complete satisfaction of the affected customer.

The mountain tops from a distance looked as though they were dusted with snow Tuesday morning. However, on closer inspection, what looked like snow was a thin coating of ice spread over the mountain top which remained through yesterday morning. The trees bowed under their icy burden, but it was not heavy enough to break the limbs. + Personal News from Amissville Mrs. Julia Curtis is spending some time with her son and daughter-in-law Mr. and Mrs. Harold Curtis in Purcellville.

( WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY ( Thursday, Friday, [Saturday and Monday, February 11-12 13 & 15th. REDUCTIONS In Every Department Rapp-Chats By Rap Owings, Ext. Agent Natural Bridge, Virginia Beef Cattlemen’s Convention. Change is the dominant theme of this sometimes boisterous, but always friendly gathering of Virginia’s beef producers. Listening to the hotel room bull sessions and the lobby conversations, the whole language of the trade has changed. Many thinking men are sticking with their favorite breed and concentrating on changing to meet changing demands. But crossbred talk is everywhere. Angus Hereford crosses, Jersey crosses, Holstein crosses, Charolias and Semitol crosses. There is no consensus, just new ideas. Mr. Charles G. Scruggs, rancher, Vice President and Editor, The Progressive Farmer, Dallas, Texas, was one of the most stimulating speakers and the following is based on notes from his presentation. In ten years, the South West, U. S. has boomed into one of the largest cattle feeding areas in the «M*rld. Just 30 tif these-feed-lots, from the pan handle of Colorado, turned out 80 percent of the cattle fed out in this area. Three of these feed lots, of 70,000 head capacity R. B. G.

Celedonio Romero with sons Celin, Pepe and Angel will present a classical Spanish guitar program in Culpeper on February 27th. and a turnover of 2.5 per year, could handle all of the feeder calves produced in Virginia. In 20-25 years, the South West will be phased out and the great shift will be the S. E., Sunjand of U. S. A. By this time most beef will be frozen, preformed, precooked arid mixed with soybean. It will have to be uniform, tender and cheap. Only the affluent will eat the real product. The steer of the future will be big, long bodied, long headed and largely produced on forage. The cow man of the future will have 500 head of uniform cross breds and use an out cross bull. He will sell and buy his whole herd at one time. Where does this leave the Virginia cow calf producers? Mr. Scruggs sees it as an opportunity for Virginia, with reputation seed stock and small herds, to become the cow producing capital for the Southland. What it would take according to Scruggs, would be 20,000 uniform 2 yr. old genetically superior cross bred heifers. Bred heifers of guaranteed genetic power. We would be flooded by buyers from the S. E. and instead of $100 - $150 for a calf, we would be selling heifers for $300 - $500. See you at the Feeder Calf Sale Banquet this Friday Night. Thomas C. Davis et ux to Wayne L.

He used as his text the parable of the two men who went to the temple to pray, Luke 18:10-14. One of these men seemed to think he held an exalted position, a Pharisee, the other a tax collector. The Pharisee told God what a grand fellow he was ; as if He didn’t know all about him. Well, the poor old tax collector didn’t think so much of himself and the people thought even less of him. He prayed an earnest prayer, asking God to TOLSON’S TILE Over 16 years experience in Ceramic Tile & Quarry Slate New construction, remodeling or repairs. Free estimates.

It seemed that the latter prayer was accepted in heaven. I don’t know that the first was rejected entirely. Why shouldn’t one be thankful for the advancement he has made; karma being fulfilled? Some folk pray when they feel a definite need. The Bible says we should pray without ceasing, be persistent in prayer; ask, knock, seek. What if we are completely satisfied, if you just want to talk to the Father. I think that is the most comfortable way to pray, just to say we are grateful for all the blessings He sends into our lives. I love this little poem, too. I hope you like it~ If radio’s slim fingers can pluck a melody From night—and toss it over a continent or sea; If the petalled white notes of a violin Are blown across the mountains or the city’s din; If songs, like crimson roses, are culled from thin blue airWhy should mortals wonder if God answers prayer?” I read an article recently where someone prayed ‘if I should wake before I die.’ Dying is inevitable, awaking to life is something we .must do for ourselves.
