Rappahannock News, December 5, 1974

Unspent school funds to be returned O. A. NORTON, superintendent of schools for Warren and Rappahannock Counties, told a P-TA meeting in Front Royal last week that $109,000 must be returned to the state because not enough money was spent la'st year in the two counties on “quality education.” Norton said the money was ordered returned because the counties failed to spend $628 per pupil for quality education in 1973-74. He explained how this happened. According to Norton the School Board began budget calculations for the 1973-74 school year late in 1972 and based enrollment projections on the previous year. He said the minimum of $628 per pupil was arrived at with these projections in mind, but that enrollment through March of last year increased by more than 100 children over the original projection. Norton said that additional funds came from the state, but by that time it was too late to add to the staff and to provide the additional facilities. NORTON said this meant that only $599 per pupil was spent in “quality education” funds, and that the extra money sent by the state and unspent, will be returned. Norton said another factor that lead to the excess was a miscalculation of county sales tax revenues for 1973-74. He said these additional funds also will be returned to the state. In a formal debate with Charles Biggs, president of the Warren County Property Owners and Taxpayers Association, Norton noted that most of 21 area counties are without vocational schools and kindergartens. He said there have been increases in enrollment in recent years, resulting in overcrowding, particularly in the intermediate school. And he pointed out that the 1974 General Assembly session decreed that by 1976 every school system in Virginia must offer kindergartens and facilities for vocational and technical education. BIGGS countered that there is no indication that the county population will continue to increase. He said that his experience in real estate has indicated that the metropolitan influx is slowing and that people are no longer buying houses in quantities as before. Biggs also noted that nationwide, the birth rate is on the decrease.d Ski area hopes to open next year ATTORNEYS for the Rappahannock Ski Area say a petition for bankruptcy will be submitted today to U.S. District Court in Charlottesville. Although the ski area will be closed for this season, Winchester attorney Jim Largent Of the firm Largent, Anderson and Larrick, said Ski Area’s directors hope to reopen next year. The bankruptcy papers were filed under “Chapter 11,” a special type of bankruptcy law which forsees that the business may come out of debt after a certain period of time, while operating in the meantime. Eric Adamson, a member of the Front Royal office of the Largent, Anderson and Larrick firm, says a “Chapter 11” permits the businesses filing for bankruptcy to take “a new lease on life.” Largent said he submitted a plan to federal court which would allow for the ski area to pay all creditors over a period of five years. He said the plan has to be approved by 100% of the creditors as well as the court. In September, Jim Moore, president of the operating firm in charge of the ski area, had told all creditors that the ski area would be closed this season. Although Moore avoided using the word “bankruptcy,” he told creditors at the September meeting that the ski area is carrying debts in excess of $600,000, some $112,000 of that “unsecured,” and the rest in investments forwarded by its .companion firm, Camelback of Pennsylvania, and in first, second and third mortgages. MOORE has said that Rappahannock’s financial problems are by no means unique among ski areas. Last winter’s mild weather and the “energy crisis” led to 15 ski operation bankruptcies in the New England states, and Camel back itself “had difficulties*” - Moore had said at the September meeting that the ski area might be used for “off season” recreation. He suggested that camping, hiking and picnicking activities might begin next summer. Attorney Adamson said last week some consideration had also been given to opening the restaurant in the summer. Moore was in Florida this week when Largent filed the bankruptcy papers. Largent said he couldn’t confirm what plans the ski area directors had in mind, but he repeated that it would be possible for them to reopen for, business, under “Chapter 11,” provided the court and the creditors agreed Butchering Time With Thanksgiving past and temperatures falling the butchering season is upon us. What delicious pork chops, scrapple and sausage these hogs will make. Charles Brooks and Ernest Fincham were butchering Tuesday near Flint Hill for Mrs. Voigt of Huntly.

LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 '__ Another -plan’ adopted IN NOVEMBER, Greene County joined the ranks of Virginia counties which possess a “comprehensive land use plan.” There was no special to-do involved; two of the three County Supervisors listened to a 45-minute slide presentation, and then with ten silent citizens looking on, voted to adopt the plan. Judging from what we’ve observed of such plans in several counties, it’s the standard going document for small, rural counties. It purports to “control growth,” encourage the concentration of new development around existing population centers, and “preserve the county’s rural, agricultural character.” Sound familiar? It should, if you’ve paid any attention to such matters, not only in Rappahannock but in a large number of surrounding counties. All of these “master plans” seem to say the same thing. Is somebody going around with a stock, off-the-shelf model and merely changing the outlines and the place names for each particular county? The sounds are pleasant. Whether these plans will ever actually be realized is something else. Again, it has been our observation that they seldom are. It is not unusual for planning maps to have only a tenuous relationship with zoning maps, and development lawyers can play situations like these to their client’s content. And even if the zoning and planning maps coincide, so many re-zonings follow that the relationship seldom holds for a very long time. WE DON’T mean to be all that down on “master plans,” or the planning process. It’s just that there is so little to inspire confidence in these documents. Rather than providing guidelines for control, they often become, instead, blueprints for unwanted growth. This is the point we’ve been trying to make from the beginning of Rappahannock’s own venture into the “master plan” business. Draw up one if you must—and all the boys in charge of grants and matching funds and .things like that say you must— but don’t put too much faith in it. The greatest force for directing the healthy development of rural counties like ours remains where it has always been—in electing good men to office, and in providing them with the citizen support (and surveillance) necessary to see that the public’s will is carried out. If a “master plan” can help in that task, then that might be its greatest recommendation. □ Si Sez WHAT DO YOU DO when you wake up Sunday and the snow has covered the mountains and you can’t get out to go to church? Stay in bed and reminisce? Well, I did. These words kept coming to me: “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” It doesn’t mention goddesses. When one is young and the sap from “the tree of life” is runningfree and “every lass a queen” it is easy to put a young goddess first in your thinking. But with advancing years one needs a “firmer foundation” than is found in the transient beauty of that young goddess, even though she is a mature woman now, having retained her queenly qualities.□ Family Lawyer By WILL BERNARD Fred was haled into court on a , charge of drunk driving, after a blood test showed an alcoholic content of more than .15 per ^ • cent. According to local law, this create^ a presumption that he was “under the influence.” But in his defense, Fred argued that such a presumption was unconstitutional. “No two individuals are alike in their ability to tolerate alcohol,” he said. “I happen to be able to hold my liquor better than most people. ” However, the court upheld the presumption and found Fred guilty as charged. “Medical science,” said the court, “has established a rational relationship between the percentage of alcohol in the blood and (the) condition of being under the influence of alcohol. Sobriety decreases as the percentage increases.” The idea of a presumption of intoxication, at a certain, alcoholic level in the blood, has spread nationwide. Almost invariably, it has been held to be constitutional. Nor can a motorist avoid taking a sobriety test on grounds of self-incrimination. Traffic laws usually provide that a motorist consents in advance, when he takes out his driving license, to submit to testing or 4 lose the license. ^ Of course, the test must still be administered properly to stand up in court. Suppose that the that too much time elapsed between the arrest and the test. Either circumstance could invalidate the results. In one case, the officer who had administered a sobriety, test ackowledged at the trial that he was not well trained in operating the device. Result: the defendant motorist was set free. The court said the law would not automatically accept test results as valid merely because they happened to come out of a machine. A Virginia State Bar Public Service Feature An ‘orator’ is answered Editor: It is evidently so rare these days to find somebody who reads serious books that one can understand the headline of November 27, 1974: “Rollison’s oratory impresses Board.” Since Mr. Rollison implies that it is business monopoly which is the cause of high prices, I can only suggest that he read Henry Hazlitt’s “Economics in One Lesson,” 1946. The U. S. has the lowest prices in the world (telephone, gasoline, etc.) because of our free enterprise system. We are constantly asking something for nothing from our government, then we are shocked when we have to pay the bill through depreciated currency which means higher prices and inflation. A. H. Kalish Castleton ERA slide show is scheduled A SLIDE show on the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) will be presented at 7:30 p.m., Thursday, December 12, at the Culpeper County Office Building (beside the Fire Hall). The public is invited to attend this presentation by the Northern Piedmont Chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW). There is no charge. The chapter’s monthly meeting will be held after the slide show. All interested persons are invited to participate. Virginia’s General Assembly will consider the ERA when it meets this January. The ERA was first introduced into the United States Congress 50 years, ago. Passed by Congress in March 1972, it is now before the States for ratification. By mid-summer of 1974, 33 states had ratified the ERA. Only five more states must ratify the ERA for it to become the 27th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. □ RLEP meets on Friday HISTORY and its preservation is the theme of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection meeting at the Washington Courthouse this Friday, December 6, at 8 p.m. Rappahannock homes built prior to 1800 have been photographed by the local Bi-Centennial Steering Committee and Mrs. Dorothy Davis will lead open discussion on the history of each.

Grain allotment programs announced ACCORDING to T.R. Taylor, Chairman, Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee (ASC), a 1975 National Feed Grain Allotment of 89 million acres—the same as for 1974—was announced November 27 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The allotment represents the number of harvested acres of feed grains, based on the estimated National average yield, needed to produce the quantity of feed grains (less imports) that will be used domestically and for export during the 1975-76 marketing year. Projected 1975 per bushel feed grain yields on which the allotment is based are 93.0 for corn, 60.0 for grain sorghum and 45.5 for barley. The allotment does not represent a limit on acreage but is computed only for the purpose of distributing payments to producers should such payments be required. It was also announced that the average loan rates in effect in 1974 for wheat and feed grains will be continued at the same levels for the 1975 crops. The present per bushel loan rates are $1.37 for wheat, $1.10 for corn, $1.05 for grain sorghum (1.88 per hundred weight), $0.90 for barley, $0.54 for oats and $0.89 for rye. THERE WILL be no loan programs for soybeans, dry edible beans, flaxseed, gum naval stores and honey, beginning with the 1975 crops. The Department said little Deer kill running same as last year BY IRVIN L. KENYON, JR. Game Warden AFTER TWO WEEKS of the season, the deer kill in Rappahannock appears to be running about the same as last year. Going ahead of last year’s pace during the first week, the number of deer checked dropped off Thanksgiving week. Amissville and Flint Hill checking stations are still showing some increase from last year. Chester Gap and Washington are running about the same and the Sperryville area is down from a year ago. The figures for the first twelve hunting days are as follows: H&J Grocery-Sperryville 16 Sperryville Exxon 22 Baldwin’s-Washington 35 Jenkins’-Amissville 28 Bradford’s-Flint Hill 62 Williams’-Chester Gap 14 Game Warden 6 183 FIVE DEER WERE CHECKED during the bow season. Only three turkeys have been checked and all those were taken outside of the county. No bear have been checked. This is not too surprising under the circumstances, although a shutout at this stage was not predictable. Rappahannock had a big kill of bear last year, probably cutting into the surplus. There were few reports of nuisance bear this past summer. The season was moved from a week before deer season to a week after deer season possibly putting the bear wise, which it was designed to do. Rappahannock may kill a few bear yet but in past years most bear were taken the week before and the first week of deer season. □ =1 0!heWinal 0'rtibuts CEMETERY MEMORIALS CLORE FUNERAL HOME PHONE 825-2361 “The Home of Thoughtful Service" CULPEPER use has been made of the loan program for these permissivesupport commodities in recent years because market prices are two to three times loan levels. Continuation of loan support on these commodities when not needed would require unnecessary administrative expenditure, the Department pointed out. Wheat and feed grain loans will no longer have identical maturity dates but will mature 12 months from the first day of the month in which the loan is made. This procedure should assure producers more flexibility in marketing crops under loan. A purchase program for honey for which price support is mandatory will continue to be available. Resale prices per bushel (not including carrying charges which vary) will be $2.36 for wheat, $1.59 for corn, $1.51 for grain sorghum ($2.70 per hundred weight) and $1.30 for barley. This established rate of resale will assure producers that government - owned grain which may be acquired will not be used to drive market prices down to target levels. Oats and rye, which do not have target prices, will be resold at $0.78\ and $1.28 per bushel averages, respectively, plus carrying charges, which makes the resale prices comparable to those commodities which do have target prices. A RESALE policy on any honey acquired under the purchase program will be announced later. On April 11 the Department announced a 1975 National Wheat Allotment of 53.5 million acres. The allotment does not represent a limit on the amount of wheat that may be planted. It is used solely to -determine what payments would be made to wheat growers if the National average market price for wheat during July-November 1975 falls below $2.05 a bushel. The 1974 National Wheat Allotment was 55 million acres and farmers planted 70 million acres. Taylor also said that based on wheat and barley prices during the first 4-months of the marketing year, and on current corn and sorghum prices it is highly unlikely that farm prices will average below the applicable target prices. Therefore, it is improbable that any deficiency payments will be required.□ FIGHT INFLATION —/ First with Quality, then Z7 wi ith Sa vmgs on LADIES COATS and DRESSES!

Social Security ruling PEOPLE under 72 can work and earn more and still get their social security benefits starting in January, according to Donald E. Ratcliff, Assistant District Manager in Winchester. “In 1975 people can earn as much as $2,520 and get their full social security retirement or survivors benefit,” Ratcliff said. “Previously the yearly earnings limit was $2,400. The increase keeps the amount in line with increases in general average wages.” For earnings over $2,520 in 1975, social security benefits will be reduced by $1 for every $2 earned. “But no matter how much people earn for the year,” he said, “they can get their full social security benefit for any month in which they neither earn over $210 nor do substantial work in their own business.” Previous, ly the monthly earnings limit was $200. Different rules apply to disabled people Who are getting social security disability benefits. “And people 72 and over will continue to get their full social sec urity benefits regardless of earnings,” Ratcliff noted. The $2,400 figure applies to the report of earnings for 1974 that people who get benefits must send to social security by April 15, 1975. THE SOCIAL security contributions rate remains the same— 5.85 percent of covered wages contributed by employes and employers; 7.9 percent of covered self-employment income. The earnings and contributions base— the amount on which social security contributions are made—will be the first $14,100 of covered earnings for the year, starting in January. Previously the base was $13,200. Social security pays over $4.9 billion a month in retirement, disability, and survivors benefits to over 30 million people. The Social Security Administration is an agency of the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. For information the local office may be visited at 20 South Cameron Street. Hours are 8:45 a.m. to 5 p.m. The telephone number is 667-1511.□ Truckload American Made Fencing 1047-6-11 $92.93 1047-12-11 $69.56 4 ft. Barbed Wire \21h go. $30.77 J. F. Forsyth & Co* MS.

Jackson. The Panthers have been working hard since November 1 and appear to be a better balanced team than at any time in recent years.

We qualify potential buyers first. This process eliminates those people unable to meet the price of your property and saves time for both of us. 5. We can sell prospects on taking action. Even the best prospect needs urging to make a commitment. 6. As a third party, we are in a much better position to negotiate the price of your property and help maintain the asking price involved. 7. With the tight money situation we are in a better position to help buyers find mortgage money when needed. 8. We are experienced with the paper work involved in the sale of Real Estate.
