Volume XXV, Number 43 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1974 FIFTEEN CENTS County planning goals proposed By PEKAY PETTUS RAPPAHANNOCK’ S Planning Commissioners approved a list ofproposed goals and objectives for the county’s first master plan, at their meeting last Tuesday night. Jim White, a staff member of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission, prepared the report at the Rappahannock County Planning Commission’s request. The goals statement notes that Rappahannock is “an area of outstanding natural beauty. Many of the county’s residents have chosen it as a place to make their homes and their livings because of the quietude, privacy and agricultural opportunities ’ that such a natural setting can offer.” So briefly, the goals of the master plan are to “recognize and enhance the role of agriculture as the dominant economic activity of the county, realizing that a major factor contributing to the county’s unique character is its high degree of agricultural activity; to identify and preserve in a natural state those areas of high ecological sensitivity, esthetic beauty and historical value; to protect and preserve the existing natural topography, watercourses and ground water levels..to locate, encourage and provide for reasonable, orderly and appropriate forms of growth which would be considered compatible with the unique character of the county and the other goals of this plan; and to provide a means to develop public and private recreational facilities in a manner that would be compatible to the other stated goals and objectives of this plan, and that wouldpromoterecreation as a secondary economic activity in the county in a way that would be wholly compatible with agriculture.” “IN SUMMARY, it is the goal of this plan to provide for, respect, and maintain the traditional character of the landscape, the cultural heritage and unique social values of the people and the natural environment in a manner that allows reasonable opportunities for a healthy, happy, safe and sanitary human life.” “This isn’t a final list,” Jim White of the.District Planning Commission’s staff commented after Fanning Baumgardner and Herbert Barksdale read the goals statement. “As the planning process develops, it will be appropriate to have sub-goals.” “Certainly will,” Herbert Barksdale agreed. “You’ve got some good ideas, but I can see room for a good many sub-heads. Those a’s, b’s and c’s that will have to be developed. “But if we don’t get started now, thinking about preserving our land, we’re going to be in bad shape,” he said. Pete Luke said he is among those who are worried about the amount of property that’s being divided up into 25 acre lots. “After all, what can be raised on 25 acres?” “I’m thinking maybe we should relax the lot size of lots around villages,” Luke said, “maybe take the pressure off some of this land we’d like to see remain in open space. That sould put some land in the price range the working class could afford, and keep the population near the businesses.” “I would agree with that,” Barksdale said. “We probably should go under five acres.” “ONE THING that’s bothering me, that’s the lack of community esprit,” Luke said. “There are all kinds of organizations in the county whose help we need in order to translate these goals into action.” Luke was especially concerned about the goals statement that suggested See Page 3 Hang-gliders9 soar over the county HAD DACRON been invented when Icarus attempted to fly, he might have been more successful. Icarus, in the Greek legend, flew too closely to the sun with his wings of feathers affixed by wax and plummeted to the earth when the wax melted. It is not legend that man is actually flying on dacron wings. A recent sport catching on across the nation is “hang-gliding,” soaring * from a hilltop on a synthetic material kite. And where is there more suitable terrain for this pasttime than in Rappahannock? The blue and gold, red or yellow tent-like objects you might glimpse on a hill or spot floating through the air as you drive along a highway are not illusions, but members of the Capitol Hang-Gliders Association trying out their Rogallo Wings. The kite-like wings are assembled of aircraft aluminum poles and stainless steel cables covered with a Dacron canopy. The wing measures 18 x 22 feet and its flight is controlled by shifting of body weight and the angle of the kite. There are no moving parts, no engine, no wheels. THE WING was invented by Francis M. Rogallo, a National Aeronautics and Space Administration engineer. After experimenting with the wing, he ob tained a patent in 1948. However, it has just been in the last three years that the sport has become popular. In that time apSee Page 5 With a dacron wing it is possible for man to fly. No engine, no brakes, no involved mechanical apparatus is necessary to put a Capitol Hang-Gliders man in flight. Members of the Club of Annandale have beer enyen-, joying this thrilling sport in Rappahannock where the green hillsides afford good launching areas. A swift, short run enables the tent-like kites’to become air/ borne and glide downhill

LATHAM, Managing Editor Telenhone Washington 675-3349 _ Plans and studies BACK-TO-BACK presentations by an American and an Englishman at last week’s land planning conference sponsored by the Piedmont Environmental Council provided a handy illustration of why so many Americans profess so little faith in the planning process. The American, representing a federal agency, got up and told of all the wonderful things his outfit has done recently. Why, there had been a “study” in New England; the financing of a “plan” paid for down South; still some more “studies” here, a “study” there, and still more “studies.” There was one brief reference to an actual accomplishment: Some workmen in a small town had been paid to remove the accumulated grass of several decades from a 19th Century brick walkway. That’s a precious little accomplishment for a whole lot of “study.” Then the Englishman followed, and he, too, outlined a project that had begun with a “study”— one initially financed by a private businessman, incidentally, in “socialistic” England, and only later supplemented by local governments. But they didn’t stop there. After the “study” had been completed, the central government (read “federal” government, in U.S. terms) stepped in and put up the equivalent of millions of dollars to actually clean up and rehabilitate a once-blighted area in the midst of an industrial-urban “conurbation.” IT’S AN important difference. The Brisish didn’t regard the “study” as an end in itself; they weren’t satisfied until they’d translated the study into an actual project. Too often in this country, it seems that the planners and the public alike—not to mention the federal governmentare content to let the “study” stand as a be-all and end-all.' It’s fairly easy to get grants for studies, practically impossible to acquire funds for a project, even one as basic as cleaning sewage out of a stream that is tapped for drinking water. As long as “studies” are considered just so much bookshelf furniture, we’re afraid the planning process—and planners—will continue to inspire little confidence among Americans. Governments might do better to save their planning money for lawsuits, or remedial engineering.□ “Close-ups” A dozen readers correctly identified the Close-up last week as the cigarette lighter in an auto.

M.Letters to the editor More on education Editor: Education is a broad word meaning almost anything we learn — whether useful or not. We read a lot about “quality education,” but who knows what “quality education” really is? We hope the three R’s are still a part of it. The Rappahannock schools have long been considered poor and inadequate. Yet, those who wanted finished high school. Some went to college and competed with those from other schools and graduated. Those who wanted have made successful citizens. Doubtless some chose the welfare way which wasn’t the fault of the schools. Kindergarten is a nice thing for mother and child. The child is entertained, gets free food, while mother is free of the care of her child. But it will have no effect on the child’s learning ability in school. We are already over-taxed and experiencing serious inflation caused' by years of over spending — much unnecessary. And it isn’t going away. Isn’t it time we cut out some frills? Competent, honest dependable farm help is almost non-existent. If General Noce is able to keep such farm help at a cheap price every farmer in the country would like to know his secret! That farm hand must have a good home, fringe benefits, and kind treatment or he would head for greener pastures. No doubt this man is learning “basic skills” from his boss, which is also an education, that will serve him well if and when he wants to move to higher pay. Farming is an expensive operation. With the cost of machinery, fertilizer, seeds, labor, taxes, pesticides, etc. etc., farming is no “get-rich-quick’’job, When we hear people howling for cheap food, see people on TV scrambling to get free food, or lined up to pay to see the Exorcist, or races, or ball games, or boxing, one is reminded of Will Rogers when he said, “What this country needs is cleaner minds and dirtier fingernails.” As to getting “professional opinions” on education you’d hear so many different ones and so many lacking common sense (a commodity in short supply and can’t be taught) that one would be on sounder ground to' seek opinions from experienced educated laymen. We are soon to celebrate the birth of our Nation and pay tribute to our founding fathers. It would be nice if we would repeat Thomas Jefferson’s advice which we didn’t heed. Here it is: “I place economy among the first and most important virtues, and.public debt as the greatest of dangers to be feared. To preserve our independence we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy andliberty, profusion and servitude. If we run into such debts, we must be taxed in our meat and drink, in our necessities and our comforts, in our labors and our amusements.” (Thomas Jefferson) It is later than we think. Old Fashioned Reader Crowded school bus situation deplored Editor: How and why should it happen? Our tax dollars have been used to put man in a million-dollar space craft to go to the moon, but this week, when our children boarded the bus for school, there was barely standing room. The bus has a capacity of 60 but was hauling a total of 90. Can you imagine the disaster should there be an accident? I dare say that all the parents in this area have lived with this dreadful thought all week. How can anyone think of starting a kindergarten in 1976 when our country doesn’t have bus facilities to cover the population now? Personally, I think we should solve our present school problems before looking to the future. We, the parents of Chester Gap, are ready and willing to sit down with any authority or official in order See Page 10

T H E L I T T t E F' 0 X ? I Planning goals are proposed From Page 1 preserving areas of historic value. “I hear that in Lancaster County they’ve formed a committee to look after the historic buildings. I’d like to see all the clubs start thinking about community projects that affect the vis-v ual image. For instance, I’m on the trash committee. But as we see growth come, we may see more neon, more plastic.” “Maybe we should send copies of these goals to all the clubs,” Luke suggested. “There are a lot of women, with a lot of energy and ideas and force who could work with us to help achieve these thngs. And we’ve got to have county support to attain them.” Herbert Barksdale wanted to know how Luke was going to get all these groups involved. “We tried sending out letters to the clubs to ask for suggestions on the goals for the plan. We sent out 30. And how many answers did we get? Fifteen finally. It looks like we’ve got to reach them in a different way. How do you suggest we reach them?” “Send them out a letter and they come up with how their group can help,” Luke thought. “It’s a good idea to get people to go along while we do a survey of the county. As people get involved, they begin to notice the county more and what’s here that’s worth saving,” White said. “I SEE ONE problem coming up,” Pete Luke said. “This wilderness business. You know, in parts of the Park that will mean, no trails, no shelters. Maybe we can work something out with Bob Jacobsen -(superintendent at the Shenandoah National Park). I know he wishes the counties would absorb some of those pressures put on the rest of the Park.” (Outside the area proposed to be designated as a Wilderness Area by Congress). “Planning District Nine is trying to arrange a meet-. ing w'ith representatives of the area affected by the Wilderness Area,” Jim White said. Fanning Baumgardner thought that the Planning Commission had obtained enough suggestions to come up with “the first cut, mostly narrative, of a comprehensive plan.” He hoped that an outline of the plan could be presented at the next meeting of the Planning Commission. “I know that if you don’t have the people behind it from the start, it never works,” Pete Luke said. ‘‘You’ve got to get them behind you at the start.” “I agree there’s some need for education along these lines,” Herbert Barksdale said. ‘‘Some think you’re a fool if you think beyond tomorrow. And some of them can’t be educated.” BAUMGARDNER mentioned that a group of people had gotten together to talk about “how to make the ski area a going concern.” This was seen as in the best interests of the county because it would afford recreation and employment, Baumgardner said. “We were talking about ways it could be kept open all year — trail rides, nature tours, a year round restaurant. Come on Jack, you were there. You help me out,” Baumgardner said to Jack DeBergh. “No I’ll let you handle it. You’re doing so well,” DeBergh demurred. “Well, we talked about coon hunts and ‘Foxfire’ lore; imaginations went pretty wild. Maybe going onto private land in Harris Hollow,” Baumgardner said. “Is skiing going to be one of the activities?” David Fannon asked. DeBergh answered that officials at the ski area were to make a decision by September 6 as to whether the ski area sould open for business this winter. “I just brought this up because it’s in line with the goals to make the co unty recreational. And it may have an impact on zoning,” Baumgardner said. ‘‘And it would be one way to take the pressure off the park,” DeBergh said. “I’ll give you some ideas after the meeting, if you really want to make some money,” Pete Luke said, grinning towards Fanning Baumbardner. “And if you won’t listen, I will,” DeBergh nodded, with a laugh. Baumgardner noted that “more Rappahannock property has fallen into the hands of the receivers.”. He noted that the old Washington school house was being sold at a trustees auction. “SOME PEOPLE have suggested that we might think about it as a county office building,” Baumgardner said. He said that Col. McNear, Mr. Fletcher and Mrs. Davis had made that suggestion. Pete Luke wondered if the county was in a position to buy it. “We have only $11,000uncommitted.” “Has the county got any credit?” Herbert Barksdale asked. “I haven’t asked,” Pete Luke answered good humoredly. “But that building might be used for the regional jail (for Planning District 9). “Looking at it from here, I’m not sure it’d be economical,” David Fannon said. “But I don’t know.” Pete Luke noted that the clerk’s office would soon have to expand. “And that means expensive construction. Vaults for all the deed books.” “Maybe we could cut off all land sales,” David Fan WELCOME TO WITS END Intersection Routes 211 & 729 Grand Opening Sat. & Sun.

Meet Mrs. Gaines and Mrs. Eckardt non suggested facetiously. “Well, in any case, the Planning Commission’s not in a position to make a recommendation tonight,” Herbert Barksdale said. Other planners agreed, and said they’d consider the matter some more. JACK DeBERGH appeared before the Planners to ask that the maps designating flood plain be revised. “This flood plain struck me last year, when I found out that much of my farm is in the flood plain.” DeBergh noted that the standard for designating the flood plain was the type of soil in an area. “This was dictated by the Stony alluvial soil,” DeBergh said, referring to his own land. “But stream beds change, though the deposit of soil remains.” DeBergh said he’d received a pamphlet prepared by Virginia Polytechnic Institute in July, and it explained what he’d just described, that actual flood plains changed while the soil deposit in the area re mained the same. That pamphlet also mentioned how the designation of an area as flood plain affected its value. “Gentlemen, I’m not a subdivider. I have never asked for a building permit or a variance,” DeBergh said. “But I am interested in the value of land.” DeBergh said that the flood plain was nearly nonexistent upstream from him and then suddenly widened. But DeBergh said he’d never had any real trouble with flooding on his land. “THE ENTIRE town of Sperryville is included in the flood plain,” he pointed out, and noted that the small town had never been flooded out. “I think a more common sense viewpoint should be taken.” He cited floods in Nelson County several years ago. “That night the flood plain started on the mountain.

An important aspect of hang-gliding is the length of time a glider is able to stay aloft. When a group of gliders spent Saturday at the Raymond Sutphin farm on Route 729, this young lady timed the flights, most of which ranged from 25 seconds to just over a half minute. Air currents and height of hills determine the time element. The record flight is about 10 hours. Gregory Molenaar of Bethesda with his “hang-gliding” wing, wends his way back up the hill after soaring down. With all of this exercise he says he will lose five pounds in a day. He has been hang-gliding for over two years and is now an instructor in the sport. HUNTLY M«S.

The Bench Show will be held Wednesday, September 4, at 7:30 p.m. at the Culpeper Agriculture Enterprises. Running will be on 5, 6 and 7, said Mrs. Clifton Clark, Secretary. □ Hang-gliders From Page 1 proximately 10,000 people have joined the ranks of hang gliders. A wing costs in the neighborhood of $500 when purchased from a sporting goods manufacturer. Many gliders construct their own wing, reducing the cost to about $200. The wing weighs 35 pounds and it collapses so it can be transported on the top of a car or station wagon. “With your wing you need only a hill, the height of which coupled with air currents determines the length of flight,” says Greg Molenaar, a computer programmer from Bethesda, who was hang gliding Saturday at the Raymond Sutphin farm on Route tc9. “A short, fast sprint generates the power needed to take off from the brink of a hill. Once in flight, you swing, your body to a horizontal position to minimize wind resistance and lengthen the time in the air,” he said. Greg has been involved in hang-gliding for a couple of years and has become an instructor of the sport. He and a number of other Capitol Club members have been spending weekends in Rappahannock on their wings. Most of the flights Saturday were about a half a minute, but the record is ten hours, according to Greg. This took place in California where the ocean breezes allowed the gliders to really “hang.” WHAT GOES up must come down, even in Cali-, fornia, and hang-gliders included. To land, the front edge of the wing is tilted upward and the glider lands on both feet, just like a bird. It all sounds so simple and easy and with caution it is, Molenaar said. You begin with a small hill and gradually build up height and skill. It has its hazards, too. The air currents must be right for a safe flight and the level of the wing must be right to prevent nose-diving into the ground on take-off. A harness and helmet are necessary safety equipment, also. With headquarters in Annandale, the Capitol HangGliders Club has about 200 members from the metropolitan area. Gradually, good hanggliding sites are being made available in the west and the U. S. Forest Service has expressed interest in providing land for the fliers. The thought is toward incorporating gliding and skiing areas together to institute year-round activities, to provide a sturdy financial basis for both sports — Sarah Latham □ More Amissville prizes THE AMISSVILLE Ladies Auxiliary has announced winners of prizes given away by the organization in conjunction with the recent Amissville carnival.

He added his own thought: “Should we consider this sort of thing along with the big issues of the district’s future?” Art Warren, the commission’s executive director, said he’d talked to Dr. R. S. LeGard, area health officer, and that the doctor was in favor. “It would help determine local programs that are needed,” Warren said. PETE LUKE of Rappahannock wasn’t so sure, notiiig that individual doctors, acting on their own, had decided that it was appropriate to build a clinic in his county. “Let the experts handle these matters,” he advised, mentioning the American Medical Association and similar organizations. McNear agreed that “we should give careful study to entering into social planning areas like this.” Several other commissioners indicated they shared his caution. Added John B. Adams of Fau quier: “I think our main effort should be in dealing with problems of growth, sewers and comprehensive land planning and that sort of thing, especially in counties that are located in growth areas. I don’t think we want to spread ourselves too thin.” There were expressions of general agreement around the table. IMMEDIATELY following was a proposal for a sort of ‘‘regional grouping of regions,” in health planning, stimulated from the federal level. All voted to oppose this suggestion. As the meeting neared its conclusion, Art Warren noted that the state is conducting a study on use of school buses for public transportation purposes, and recommended that the commissioners convey their views on this to legislators studying the proposal. McNear said he thought it was a good idea, and said he’d like to “give it a go; it’s a horrible waste as it is, especially with the school buses sitting idle all summer long.” PETE LUKE noted that during the school year, regular trips are made by school buses from Rappahannock to the vocational school at Culpeper. He thought it would be useful if citizens could be given rides on these buses on a “space available” basis. Richard L. Sanford of Orange said he understood that if problems of liability and insurance could be solved, many more uses of school buses could be worked out. □

Weinberger recently approved final regulations defining the conditions under which Medicare will help pay for services provided by independent physical therapists and limited services by chiropractors, and extending the authority of optometrists and dentists to certify reimburseable services under the program. Under the regulations, which reflect the intent of legislation, covered chiropractic services are limited to manual manipulation of the spine to correct “subluxations” which can be demonstrated by X-ray. Also, chiropractors must meet strict educational and professional requirements before their services can be reimbursed under the program. Services provided by an independent physical therapist may be covered by Part B, the medical insurance part of Medicare, when they are furnished in the therapist’s office or in the patient’s home, but only if the therapist meets specified professional qualifications. A beneficiary’s expenses for services provided by an independent physical therapist can be recognized up to a limit of $100 in a calendar year. If the beneficiary’s medical expenses under Part B have already exceeded the annual deductible amount of $60, he could be reimbursed by Medicare for 80 percent, or up to $80 in a year. AN OPTOMETRIST may now certify a patient’s need for prosthetic lenses, and a dentist may now certify the need for hospitalization for a dental procedure, but only if the patient’s medical condition prevents the procedure t from being performed in a non-hospital setting.

Planning goals are proposed From Page 3 review this pamphlet,” DeBergh asked of the Planners, ‘‘because this does affect one of my better farms.” ‘‘Do you anticipate in building on this land?” Herbert Barksdale asked. ‘‘Not any time soon,” DeBergh told him. Pete Luke said that part of the flood plain designation had to do with water supply. ‘‘Practically every well in Sperryville is contaminated,” he said. DeBergh said he just wished that the Planning Commission ‘‘would do as the pamphlet said. ‘‘Well, as long as it’s producing apples and grass, I don’t see that it makes any difference what you call it,” Herbert Barksdale commented. Pete Luke noted that the soil types are taken into consideration when the land value is assessed. WITOLD KUNCEWICZ told the Planning Com' missioners that the goals statements included too much emphasis on preservation. ‘‘There are a good many paragraphs concerned with the preservation of everything,” he said. Kuncewicz noted that the list prepared iby Planning District Nine states that ‘‘many of the county residents have chosen” to live in Rappahannock because of its unique character. “A good many residents didn’t choose. There is an overemphasis that most of them dicfe” Kuncewicz said. “This slants the impression that you are trying to preserve the area for the people who came here from elsewhere.” Kuncewicz also took issue with what he claimed was ‘‘an over-emphasis on recreation.” ‘‘This is a bothersome, troublesome industry,” he said. “I’d rather have a stinking tannery than a million people driving through.” “And what concerns me most — and here I have no personal axe to grind — I am deeply concerned about the people who have to commute. Commuting is one of the most destructive things there is for family life. It’s unsettling. You live in two different worlds.” Kuncewicz said that men often drink beer on the way back to the country in the afternoon, so “instead of drinking with their wives and children, they are already under the influence when they get there.” “These men are gone from agriculture forever, but they are still human beings. And the mother country should not give them the cold shoulder,” he said. “THE LAST paragraph says the master plan should allow reasonable opportunities for a healthy, happy and safe life,”’ he said. “What about providing opportunities? Let’s keep a sense of proportion and not be persuaded by the likes of ourselves.” Luke asked Kuncewicz to prepare a paragraph for the Planning Commission to consider. “You’ve hit some nails right smack on PUBLIC SALE OF PERSONAL PROPERTY, INCLUDING FURNITURE AND SOME ANTIQUES.

Kuncewicz agreed. ‘‘I’d like for Wit to understand that we have no plans to turn all this county into one giant KOA campground,” David Fannon said. ‘‘And as for providing opportunities, we have to be careful. Opportunities often mean development. And we can’t have everything.” Kuncewicz disagreed that opportunities mean development and loss of the countryside and agriculture. ‘‘There are little towns all over Europe where they have everything,” he said, describing how such a town would have several small industries, shops, houses and open fields nearby. “You see much the same thing in the American midwest, that part of the Midwest where the opportunities for commuting aren’t there,” Fannon said. “WELL, THERE are some people who come to me who will work for $3.50 an hour. They are now working for $9 an hour and they want to stop this commuting,” Kuncewicz said Chairman Herbert Barksdale asked Phil Irwin for his comments. “Phil, you always have a lot to say. Anything you want to tell us?” “I wouldn’t want to disappoint you, Mr. Barksdale,” Irwin said. He told ♦ the Planning Commission that the Rappahannock League for Environmental ^ Protection will have their quarterly meeting on Friday, September 6, at 8 p. m. at the courtroom. Gerald McCarthy, from the Governor’s Council on En^ vironmental Quality, will be the speaker and a film titled “The Raging James” about stream channelization, will be shown. □ State assessor transferred MARTIN JOHNSON, who was sent by the State Department of Taxation to assist Rappahannock County in conducting a real estate reassessmept program, has been transferred by the state to another county. Mort Bacon, who headed up the reassessment program in Rapphannock 12 years ago, has been named as his replacement. Reassessment of Rappahannock County real estate, which is required by state law at least once every six years, is “roughly half through,” according to Herbert Barksdale, a member of the county reassessment board which oversees the work done by state apprais - ers. “Mr. Bacon will pick up where Mr. Johnson left off. Since Mr. Bacon was here before and has had many years experience in the state department, we expect things will go faster now,” Barksdale said. At the July meeting of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors, some complaints were voiced about the way in which the property reassessment was being conducted. Several Supervisors felt the reassessment was proceeding too slowly, and some questioned the approach being taken by the appraisers sent from the state office. SUPERVISOR Herbert Foster said, “I was talking to one and told him to remember that a certain barn was only good for storing hay. He told me that it was easy to convert barns like that into apartments, where a farmer could realize a lot of income.” Foster didn’t think that was the proper attitude for appraisal of a hay barn. Other Supervisors agreed, and said they’d heard similar tales. Pete Luke said he knew of several instances where the state assessors had put in a full day’s pay, even when they didn’t have a full day’s work to do. At the Supervisors’ bidding, Gen. Noce replies Editor: Here are a few comments on a letter by Mr. George Graham in your issue of August 15, 1974, page 2. The first half of this article deals with the political climate, which is always possible when they are elected officials. They do the best thay can under many difficulties. But I do think that when the author puts the tax consciousness on the “Sunday supplement” it is a disservice to the community. Particular objection is taken by me to the use of the word “absurd” being used to refer to Mr. Grigsby’s appearance before the Board x>f Supervisors. I spoke to the chairman of the Board of Supervisors before the meeting about Mr. Grigsby’s desire to say his piece about taxes. Col. Luke agreed. At the meeting I asked the Board if they would hear Mr. Grigs by. They agreed. It was no “ploy,” as Mr. Graham indicated. It was straight freedom to speech. The Rappahannock News in its editorial on page 2 of August 15 said it so clearly with their words, “a citizen’s right to say no is often one of the things this nation is supposed to be all about.” Daniel Noce Sperryville School bus From Page 2 to correct this very disturbing matter. I do not know the bus situation in the other parts of the county, but I do not consider standing up on a school bus for 18 miles one way a short distance. On behalf of the parents of Chester Gap, Mrs. Thomas Leake Luke said he would tell them to stop it. Luke noted that a lump sum of $8,000 had been provided for reassessment, and he thought the assessors should be reminded that “that’s it.’’ MEMBERS OF the local assessment board, which oversees the work of the representatives from the State Department of Taxation, were not pleased with the state appraisers work, either. “If you had someone working for you who didn’t do what you told him, how long would you keep him?” Walter Master son asked. Serving with Masterson and Herbert Barksdale on the reassessment board are Robert Anderson, chairman; Mrs. Helen Kilby, and Charlie Compton. □ {OftfiMCC Place Your Trust In Experience Our reputation is built on understanding and integrity.

Program for the elderly continued CONTINUATION for a full year of a fledgling program to “provide a nutritious midday meal and promote socialization of 100 persons daily, 60 and over, who are either low income, isolated, lonely or do not eat nutritious meals for any reason,” was approved at last Thursday's August meeting of the Region 9 Planning District Commission. Only Fred Buswell of Culpeper voted “no,” indicating that he thought existing “welfare and Food Stamp” programs were enough. His arguments were countered by Billy Mitchell of Culpeper, who made a brief, intense speech about the need to help the elderly: “t hope that if some day, if I get destitute, I’d like to know that someone would help me to the extent of at least one meal a day... It’s the hunitarian thing to do; I think this board should do it.” The program has been in operation for several months in some counties in the Rapidan-Rappahannock Planning District, and is funded by Federal and State money, with “In-kind” local matching services. The total cost for a year is $107,084, and further regional endorsement was needed because of a change in the program’s fiscal year. Florence (Peggy) Clark, director of the program, appeared to answer questions. She was disarmingly candid: “So far, the program has been about half really good, and half not so good.” IN CULPEPER, she said, the hospital prepares 25 meals a day and up to 29 people have been showing up regularly, “especially for the socialization. Some come in hours ahead of time.” If necessary, she said, “we divide up the dinners we have.” At other places in the district, attendance has been around 17 or 18 persons a day, but “Orange is a problem. We need a new place, for one thing. We’ve been having the program at the nursing home, and we didn’t get a good response. People thought that the next step might be to move them right in.” “When are you going to get to Rappahannock?” asked Pete Luke. “I’m rather disappointed with Orange right now, and I’d just as soon move the Orange operation down to Rappahannock,” said Ms. Clark. LUKE INDICATED he’d be delighted, adding that in his county, the nutritional supplement was not as important as the socialization aspect of the program. “Lonesomeness is the big problem. Most are farm people, and are eating good meals, but they get lonesome.” “The meal is not a major reason anywhere,” said Peggy Clark. “Most come for the socialization... The program is working; if we didn’t have this program, they’d sit at home. As it is, we have this program five days a week.” A major problem has been finding someone to prepare the meals, the director said. “In Warrenton, we had a hard time, and the people who said they would prepare the dinners now say they can’t do it when the school year starts. The school cafeteria people turned me down, but the vocational school people said they’d tentatively think about it.” Fred Buswell then indicated his reservations. “Doesn’t Culpeper have a Senior Citizens club, welfare programs, food stamps? I’m completely against a program like this.” “Some people do contribute for this, don’t they?” Pete Luke asked of Ms. Clark. She said about a third of the old people pay for their meals. “It still seems to me there’s a duplication here,” said Buswell, looking stern. LUKE WENT into a dissertation about how people who live alone don’t always eat nutritional meals; it’s too much trouble, even for young people, who live alone. Art Warren added that Congress approved funds for the program in question, nationwide. “Just because funds are available, we shouldn’t go out and seek them,” retorted Busell. ‘‘That’s what’s wrong with this country.” Richard McNear observed that “Most of programs like this have been on a local initiative thing, and this is one of them. “Some people are willing to back anything,” said Buswell. Peggy Clark invited Buswell, and all commission directors, to attend one of the programs, and “see what it means to them.” “Season tickets to the Redskins games would mean a lot to me, too,” said Fred Buswell. “jAs a taxpayer, I don’t believe my" fellow taxpayers would like something like this.” Observed Elbert W. Brown: “Senior citizens make up a large voting bloc themselves.” Added Time to go.. . BACK TO SCHOOL Call now for your STUDENT SCHOOL SUBSCRIPTION $2.75 for the School Term. Mail anywhere in the 1J&A., NameSchool Address StateDate to begin subscription^ Richard McNear: “I don’t think this has any bearing on the taxes we pay. Funds have been allocated for this purpose and if not spent here will be spent elsewhere.” “That’s what’s wrong with the country now,” Buswell insited. “If it would reduce taxes, I might feel differently, too,” admitted Pete Luke. “But if we didn’t take advantage of it, the funds would just be redistributed. Then, as a businessman, I want to get my share of it. As regards the food stamp program, is there any screening to eliminate people on welfare?” No, said Ms. Clark. “No questions are asked. Congress adopted the program for all older people.” BUSWELL FINALLY found a supporter, “people who get Food Stamps already get more than they need,” said Alvin Lohr. “Isn’t this a trial program that will be evaluated later?” asked John B. Adams. “It’s only been four months,” added Brown, “let’s give it a full year trial. I think it can be beneficial. As a group, elderly people are one of the most nutritionally deprived groups in America.” Some are victims of the system,” added McNear. “I’d rather spend money like this than in trying to rehabilitate al-‘ coholics,” said Pete Luke. “Idon’t think they’ve ever rehabilitated one.” He expressed concern that the schools were not being of more help in the program. “I don’t know how we can prevail on the schools to use the facilities for things like this.” STAN HAWORTH of Warrenton asked how much “per head” per meal was allocated. He was told the figure is $1.50. Replied Haworth: “Well, we’re conservative thinkers, and it’s just not practical to do it at that price.” But Billy Mitchell liked Luke’s point about under-utilization of school buildings, adding his passionate little speech in favor of compassion for the elderly. Brown followed with a motion to approve; only Fred Buswell voted “no.”D MOYERS MOTOR CO.r INC. Ford & Mercury NEW MARKET, VA. 75 Used Cars & Trucks in stock at all times CALL: Robert G.

Pole climbers’ safety stressed Candidates for political offices are urged to caution their campaign workers against attaching signs to utility poles. Potomac Edison Company officials issued that appeal, citing the safety of linemen as the principal reason. Signs affixed to poles create hazards when linemen must climb poles for repair work. Such objects could cause the lineman’s climbing spurs to “cut out” possibly resulting in a fall or other serious injury. In many localities, placing of any type of sign on utility poles is prohibited by law. □ BRIDGE PARTY Mrs. B. M.

Leathers School safety reminder THE- START of a new school year is a good opportunity to remind Virginians of laws regarding school buses, says John T. Hanna, director, Highway Safety Division of Virginia. On divided highways and streets, all vehicles in lanes traveling with the school bus must stop. Vehicles traveling in the opposite direction but separated by either a physical barrier or an unpaved area may proceed without stopping. On undivided highways or streets, all vehicles must stop until the children are clear of the roadway and the bus is moving. Motorists should also be aware of changes in the laws regulating school bus lettering. Since July 1 of this year, school buses in Virginia can be simply identified by the words “School Bus” in the front and back. No longer is the wording, “Stop State Law”, required. “As a final safety reminder, be particularly careful during morning rush hour traffic. Children walking to school and school buses stopping to pick-up children are traffic obstacles not present during summer months,” concluded the safety official. □ 20.8 cu. ft.

Livestock loan guarantees explained FINANCIAL assistance to livestock and poultry producers under the Emergency Livestock Credit Act is available through a new loan guarantee authority of the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA), a rural credit service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. R. A. Goodling, FmHA State Director, said the agency is prepared to implement the recently-enacted law by guaranteeing up to 80 percent of possible loss on loans made by legally organized lenders to livestock and poultry producers. Under terms of the act, the loan guarantee program will be in effect through July 25, 1975. It may be extended for 6 months beyond that date if the Secretary of Agriculture determines that it is needed to help the livestock industry obtain sufficient credit. THE LAW calls for loans to be made by banks or other legally organized lenders. Goodling said producers are urged to make applications to, and complete loan arrangements with lending institutions. The lender in turn will ask FmHA for a loan guarantee if one is required. The lender will process the applications, close the loan and service it. The maximum loan to any single borrower that can be assisted by an FmHA guarantee is $250,000. Loans will be repayable in three years, although renewal for two years may be authorized. Interest rates are determined between borrower and lender. Goodling said the agency is authorized to guarantee up to 80 percent of loss a lender may incur on loans to bonafide farmers and ranchers who breed, raise, fatten or market beef and dairy cattle, hogs, sheep, goats, chickens and turkeys. A majority of the borrower’s time must be devoted to the livestock or poultry production. IN THE CASE of a corporation or partnership, assistance can be extended only when the majority partners or stockholders are primarily engaged in the livestock or poultry production. FmHA guarantees will be made only when the bonafide farmer or rancher cannot obtain financing without a guarantee. Loans may not be used to expand operations. Goodling said the county FmHA office serving the area where the borrower’s livestock or poultry operations are conducted will handle requests from lenders for guarantees, or supply information on the loan guarantee program. The FmHA office serving Rappahannock County is located at 608 S. Main Street, Culpeper.□ CHESTER GAP NEWS MRS. BESSIE PARKS Sam North entered Warren Memorial Hospital Saturday morning.

But some of us, in the rush to get the joh done overlook the importance of conditions necessary for good fermentation and top feeding value. Here are a few reminders: Harvest as much as possible at hard dough or late dent stage of maturity; cut clean and fine to insure packing; pack and pack some more to exclude air pockets and insure good keeping quality. FEEDER CATTLE GRADES — The Virginia Department of Agriculture has revised its feeder cattle grading system. The following is a brief summary: Fancy and choice feeders will be above average in size, scale, length, muscling and thickness. Good will be below average in frame size, but will have muscling and thickness. Medium will be above average in frame size, but below average in muscling and thickness. Common cattle will be lacking in conformation and very thinly muscled. Shorts will be extremely short. The following is the projected effects these grade changes will have.
