Uncle Santa Claus?

A CHECK FOR RAPPAHANNOCK’S portion of Federal “revenue-sharing” for the first six months of 1972 arrived this week. The amount was $25,900 plus. The check has been deposited with Treasurer Robert L. Brown, according to Clerk E. M. Jones, who said, “no guidelines for the disbursement of the money have been received.”

A comment by a patron in the Clerk’s office Wednesday morning was: “You can bet there are some strings attached.”

Some counties and cities have been disappointed in the amount meted them, for they had been expecting much, much more. Loudoun County received only $27,212 and had expected some $500*Q0(0,, while Fauquier was given $113,579. First reports had it that Fauquier. would receive a total of $403,000. □
