. 01 VA. STATE LIBRARY ' “ RICHMOND 19, VA. S/6I ss lfjr 23219 ? Volume XXVI, Number 37 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, JULY 24, 1975 FIFTEEN CENTS Ski area plans are questioned RAPPAHANNOCK’S planning commissioners have ihet twice in the last week with Donald Weil, trying to determine the specifics of Weil’s plans to develop the Rappahannock Ski Area into an all-year resort, but they have made no recommendations. Weil had applied earlier this month to the county Board of Zoning Appeals for a use permit in order to place “recreational vehicles” or camper trailers on the ski area property. The Zoning Appeals Board did not turn him down, but asked that he resubmit his application under a different provision of the county zoning ordinance. This would give the county more control over the camper trailer aspect of the new development, as well as other site plan matters, such as screening, location of parking areas and roads, drainage, water supply and sanitary facilities. The Zoning Appeals Board has asked the Planning Commission to act as a fact finding body, to help them obtain the information necessary for making a decision on the use permit request. Weil appeared at the regular planners’ meeting last Wednesday, July 16, to request a special meeting. As he said it, “We’re under contract to purchase this property and that contract is contingent on us getting a permit which would allow us to put in the facilities we want. But if we don’t get this thing resolved by the end of the month we’ll be pretty much out of it anyway,” Weil said. The cause for such hurry is “this is going to be a private type area. And we have people who will do our selling or marketing of the area for us. They’re saying they can’t be ready in time for next year” if Weil and his partners can’t get to work on the project soon, he said. Owners of the Rappahannock Ski Area have already applied for a use permit so that Weil and his partners could find out if they would receive permission to develop the property as they want, But after that first hearing, the zoning appeals board advised them to resubmit the application under different sections of the zoning ordinance. If the permit were granted under the other articles of the ordinance, specifically Article 12B, the county would have more control over how the area was developed. WEIL didn’t think it was necessary for the owners to apply for the use permit under the different articles of the ordinance. These articles would require what he has already promised he would do. “We were led to believe that we only needed a special use permit in regard to the recreational vehicles. We thought we had a right to the other uses under the zoning of a recreational resort.” ‘‘But somebody has got to see some plans for this thing,” Planning Commission chairman Herbert Barksdale said. Barksdale was reflecting the opinion stated at the earlier meeting by the zoning appeals board members, as well as that of his fellow planning commissioners. They all wanted Weil to present a more specific program of his plans for the ski area. Weil didn’t think this was the stage for such a requirement. At this point, he only wanted to obtain the use permit which would grant him certain uses. The site plan would come later, he said. Newbill Miller said he’d be ready to oppose the use permit request, if Weil didn’t present ‘‘the total picture.” George Muth, a member of the zoning appeals board which grants use permits, said “we want a detailed plan. Not a page with just a block, saying this will be here.” “WE’VE already spent $3,000 on planning for this. How much more specific do you want us to get,” Weil complained, noting all this costs would go down the drain if the permit weren’t granted. Walter Masterson asked “Why didn’t you think about that before?” Pete Luke thought the planners and zoning appeals board members were justified in being so specific, “because of the contentious nature of campers and trailers.” The development of the ski area as a year round resort “potentially has one of the largest impacts” of any development to date in Rappahannock County,” Phil Ir win said. It may seem like a lot of red tape to the applicant, but that’s the only way to protect the rest of the county. Irwin added that he is “distressed” with the private nature of Weil’s proposed development plans. NEWBILL MILLER said he isn’t as worried about the specifics of See Page 2 Rustling charged JOSEPH AND LOIS SMITH of Woodville have been arrested and charged with larceny of livestock in Rappahannock. The pair, man and wife, alledgedly stole livestock from Miss Florence Settle of Castleton. According to Trooper J. A. Watson, the Smiths took the animals from the Settle farm July 16 and attempted to sell them at the Fauquier Livestock Exchange at Marshall. The officer also said they had recovered two more animals which were taken from the property of Peter Labovitz at Sperryville. The Smiths were taken before Magistrate Peter Kramer who released them on their own recognizance. They will appear in Rappahannock General District Court tomorrow, Friday. The Smith’s truck used for the transportation of the cattle was confiscated by the State Officers. Trooper G. F. Gregory assisted in the investigation which continues. Sam Sisk of Sperryville has been charged with cattle larceny by the local Sheriff’s Department and was released on property bond. A pavillion is underway on the Recreation Center grounds at Washington and a playground for small children is being planned. The Rappahannock Woman’s Club presented Rec. Center chairman T. Granville Eastham with a check for $1000 for playground equipment. Mrs. Virginia Cloud, club treasurer, right, makes the presentation as Mrs. Aney Massie, retiring club president, looks on. The excavation for the pavillion is visible in the background. Funds were raised by the Woman’s Club through the fashion show held in the spring. The club has taken the playground as a continuing project.

LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349_ Local government AN IRONY of local government was touched on last Friday night in the “colloquy” between Karl Hess, anarchist, and James Kilpatrick, conservative, but the point was not developed. Both men agreed that government has grown too big and impersonal for our own good, and Hess elaborated at length on the desirability of keeping government at a neighborhood level, where participatory democracy can be most effective. Compelling thoughts, but the sad truth is that neighborhood people seldom want to participate in their government, and when they do, their elected officials often do everything they can to thwart that desire. “Executive meetings” are held, to discuss the public’s business behind closed doors; “conferences” are held, to which the public is not invited, even though it’s the public’s business that is being conferred about— the list goes on. The irony remains: The “grass roots” level of local government, which is siqjposed to be most accessible to the people, often is the most remote. We know of some com - munities in this area where it’s difficult to even find out when public officials meet, much less what they do when they meet. THE PUBLIC must share a large portion of the blame, as well. The bad voting habits of Americans are well documented, and anyone who regularly attends local public meetings, as newspaper people do regularly, is struck by how seldom members of the public take enough interest in what is going on to actually attend a meeting. Oh, there will be occasional emotional floods, when a hearing room is packed in response to some special outrage or opportunity, but by and large the public stays away from public meetings, in droves. Mr. Hess and Mr. Kilpatrick were right, though. Government should be kept as close to the people as possible, where direct causes and effects can be observed, and where direct action can be taken, if required. If we don’t, there are legions of bureaucrats and politicians at other levels only too willing to take over what should be local options.□ Route 211 crash Sunday is fatal James Jarvis of Gainesville was fatally injured in a traffic crash early Sunday morning which occurred on Route 211 at Hillsdale, .8 mile east of Massies Corner about 1:10 a.m. Jarvis was coproprietor of Lom-Bar-Dy Restaurant at Amissville which he operated with Evelyn Williams, also of Gainesville. Jarvis was a passenger in a car, a ‘67 Mercury, driven by Frederick Vincent Barnes of Alexandria, according to Trooper Charles Moore. Jarvis died of multiple injuries including a brain concussion and fractured hip. Barnes sustained a severely lacerated left arm with nerve damage. The Barnes car was travelling west when it went out of control, tkiAfcd broadside, said the officer, and overturned. The crash is still under investigation. □ AUXILIARY MEETS The Washington Ladies Auxiliary held its regular monthly meeting July 21. Officers were elected for the 1&75-76 year, as follows: President, Ruth Clark, for the 3rd year; Vice President, Mary Kllen Burke for the 2nd year; Secretary, Kthel Bailey for the 2nd year; Treasurer, Frances Foster for the 3rd year, Other members present were Bertha Armel, Ktta Fsles, Mary Bailey, Pauline Bruce, Ann Kastharn and Sarah Brown.□ “Close-ups” The photo last week was the side view of a bottle cap and stumped many of our readers.

Ski area plans From Fage_l the site plan as he is about the landowners association that will be formed to administer the resort. “I don’t care so much where the johnny house or the swimming pool will be, but what kind of rules and regulations this owners association will have,” Miller said. Weil still maintained that it wasn’t necessary to reapply under Article 12b of the zoning ordinance. Article 12b only applies to agricultural and conservation zones and the ski area is already considered a commercial zone, he said. And the requirements of 12b would be enforced by the homeowners association anyway, he said again. In fact, the by-laws of that organization would be stronger than the ordinance, Weil said. But George Muth was adamant. He wanted Weil to present specific plans to the planning commission before the request even came back to the zoning appeals board. And Muth emphasized, the rules of the homeowners association could change with the membership, so that was no guarantee. So the planners scheduled a special session and Weil returned Tuesday night. He met many of the same questions as he had at the earlier meeting of the zoning appeals board. Newbill Miller pointed out that Weil had said earlier that he planned to sell interests in the year-round area resort to 1,500 eventual owners, who would all hold deeds and be “tenants in common.” A deed would guarantee each owner a site on which to park his camper trailer for no more than 15 of every 30 days. Weil nodded that Miller was representing his proposal correctly. But, Miller then asked, what is to prevent these owners from sub-letting their lots. That would mean all 1,500 lots could be filled with trailers all the time. Weil didn’t have an answer for that one. PETER KRAMER, mayor of the town of Washington, was especially concerned about the impact of the trailer traffic on the town. In order to reach the ski area, the driv ers must bring the trailers through “downtown” Washington, negotiating two sharp curves, one the Country Store and another at Skipper Giles Cash Store. Following a suggestion of commonwealth’s attorney George Davis, the planners will make a special tour, following the route the , camper trailer owners will take, from the bypass turn-off for Washington up to the ski area. George Davis asked Weil how he would feel if the Zoning Appeals Board granted a conditional use permit, perhaps stipulating that the area would never have condominiums. Weil said he and his partners weren’t so sure they could go along with that. Mrs. William Lyne asked Weil what the price of a membership in the private resort area would be. Weil said he didn’t know. CHARLIE MANSON wanted to know where Weil would find his-'* 1,500 buyers. Weil said that would be no problem. A similar project he has developed in Warren County is full every weekend, he said. People come from as far away as Annapolis. Mary Jamieson asked how much Weil expected to spend in order to develop the ski area into a year-round resort. Weil said he didn’t know. Charlie Manson wondered if the county could derive some special tax revenue from the ski area, to cover costs for what additional county services might be demanded. Weil said he had thought of that; perhaps one per cent of the profits or a dollar a head, he suggested. □ BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT Mr. and Mrs. Raymond (Butch) Smoot of Sperryville announce the birth of their second daughter, Linda Kay on July 14, 1975 in University Hospital, Charlottesville. Grandparents are Mary E. Thomas and Mrs. Cecil Smoot of Delaware and Harvey Smoot. Mrs. Vergie Pullen is her great grandmother.□

Anarchy vs. conservatism A lively ‘colloquy’ heard in Rappahannock SINCE it wasn’t billed or structured as a debate, perhaps it is somewhat unfair to say that Karl Hess, admitted anarchist, made the most telling debating points in his “colloquy” last Friday night at Rappahannock Elementary School with James Fitzpatrick, nationally syndicated conservative newspaper columnist. But , then, “Jack” Kilpatrick seemed to win the argument, at least with a majority of the sizeable audience on hand, and it wasn’t just because he’s a sometime Rappahannock resident, either. It was an audience which simply couldn’t shake the builtin responses of a lifetime of public school education, commercials and “instithtional advertising”—that is to say, free enterprise propaganda. The initially beguiling premises of Karl Hess against big government, big business, bigness of any kind, and in favor of small scale, neighborhood-level, participatory democracy, were eventually overwhelmed by an abiding American belief that big accomplishments are the sole prerogative of big government or big business, and nothing the softvoiced, persuasive Hess could say could shake those inbred instincts. It is suspected that the bearded and bra-less youths who were sprinkled throughout the audience were as skeptical as the solid Rappahannock Establishment types who almost filled the school’s auditorium, but they’d be the last to admit it. The “colloquy” between Kilpatrick and Hess was another in a series of programs arranged by the Nethers Community School to provide some summertime intellectual stimulus for rural Rappahannock. Nethers is an experimental, “Hippy” (to use a readily identifiable adjective) school that has been established near Woodville, a small Rappahannock community. The lecture series or whatever you want to call it was organized loosely around a consideration of solar energy, and so far all speakers have been in favor of that alternative sourceeven Kilpatr&k and Hess. SOLAR ENERGY was not the only thing these two men agreed on last Friday night. They both agreed that as presently arranged, nuclear energy is proving to be a disappointment. In Hess’s words, “it is sloppy, dangerous and not producing any energy. Kilpatrick admitted that he, too, has been sorely let down by nuclear energy, and he agreed that solar energy experimentation might turn out to be a more fruitful field of exploration in the long run. . But Kilpatrick and Hess didn’t talk all that much about energy We Can Supply All Your BUILDING NEEDS CULPEPER BUILDING & SUPPLY CORP. Phone VA5-8383 Culpeper sources, per se. They were more interested in generalized views on government and society, and how those views might relate~to the nation’s energy problems was almost coincidental. Hess was first to speak, and in acknowledgement of Mary Jamieson’s introduction, admitted: “Yeah, that’s right. I’m an anarchist. . .What that means.. .is you believe people are only citizens when they fully participate in their community.. .Since Republicans stopped being anarchists, I had to stop being a Republican.” Hess was once a rabid Republican. He was one of Barry Goldwater’s speechwriters when the Arizona Senator ran for President. Now, he believes “there is no justification for the nationstate whatsoever. It cannot protect you. It cannot do any of the things it promises. There is no reason left for the nation-state.” He documented his feelings, abou| how public education has failed, about how public police forces have failed, to the point where “citizens are just random spectators at a government spectacle. . .The state creates nothing, it is simply a consuming institution. . And Karl Hess sees “very little difference between government and great corporations, “which he proceeded to denounce statistically and philosophically. Small industrial corporations are different, he thought, and he urged more attention to their nurture and well-being. And getting to the supposed subject of the evening—solar energy—he warned against letting the “great institutions” lay claim to something which is essentially very simple and amenable to widespread application by individuals. Great corporations and large government have tried to make simple things seem complicated all along, to cement their monopolies, he said. “The production of power is about as complicated as a bunch of wires and magnets,” he asserted. Likewise, solar energy is about as mysterious as a black hose in the sunlight. “By lunchtime, the water in that hose will be boiling hot, and that’s the principle of solar energy. All the rest is a matter of plumbing.” KARL HESS also espoused the “technology of the turn of the century” in calling for more use of wood-burning stoves to heat homes. Burning wood is nothing more than another version of solar energy, he observed. Branching out to more generalized views, Hess informed the audience that most American leftist groups are indigenous, and See Page 4 Self-admitted anarchist Karl Hess makes a debating point while newspaper columnist James Kilpatrick awaits his turn at Rappahannock Elementary School last Friday.

Anarchy vs. conservatism ‘colloquy* From Pa?e 3 do not want to see China or Portugal or the Soviet Union transported here; that it was the American left, not so-called conservatives, who opposed “Nixon’s guaranteed minimum income nonsense”; that “America is us, not the government and its silly little Bicentennial Train with Howdy Doody and McDonald’s.” He concluded: “Don’t let anybody tell you they know how to live your life better than you do. Don’t let anybody tell you anything is .too complicated for you to understand.. .Wg’re too close to letting (big government, big business) people take over the whole thing.” He sat down—a gentle-voiced, bearded man in a blue work shirt and blue jeans—to resounding applause. Then it was Jack Kilpatrick’s turn, and he symbolized his conservatism with a brilliant red blazer which he resolutely kept on over his shirt and necktie although even some of the most conservative members of the audience stripped down to shirtsleeves in die humid heat of the school’s un-air conditioned auditorium. SAID Kilpatrick of his opponent, right off: “He has the finest Fifth Century mind I've encountered. He's a beautiful dreamer— loving, decent, kind—but a dreamer. But that is not the way the world is, or America is..." The newspaperman then proceeded to attack Hess's anarchistic views—that America is a nation of 220 million people who simply must have a strong governmental structure for the main NOTICE VIRGINIA: IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY.

Kilpatrick was contemptuous of Hess’s espousal of wood-burning stoves, especially as a solution for cities. He attacked the idea of neighborhood participatory democracy in an age of huge-ness, and he reminded everyone that “reality means jobs and a highly industrialized society is the way to provide jobs.” Freedom is not a “little community sort of thing,” said Kilpatrick, but something which demands national policies, or at a minimum, watershed policies. Hess’s proposals, carried to their logical ends, would mean a return to “some primitive life,” concluded Kilpatrick, to which he replied: “Nonsense! Absolute nonsense! That would mean going back to the hardships, and the stinks.. .of Fifth Century life!” KILPATRICK also sat down to resounding applause. Karl Hess said his old friend didn’t understand. He said too much wealth and power is concentrated in too few hands in America for Kilpatrick’s generalizations about big corporations to be valid, and he argued that most of this nation’s most significant technological breakthroughs had come from individuals or small firms, not big corporations. He cited the automobile industry and the transistor industry as examples of his point, and blamed the nation’s industrial ills on a surrender to “merchandising” as opposed to engineering. “We can’t continue to use 60 per cent of the world’s energy to produce style,” said Hess. “W'e must return production to engineering and away from style and merchandising.” There followed more generalizing by both men, and then Kilpatrick invited questions. The very first one found both speakers in agreement. A woman wondered about American labor laws which keep youngsters off the job market, and indicated she felt this was ridiculous. SO DID both Hess and Kilpatrick. They took turns waxing indignant over American public education. Both were critical of existing systems; both would revise mandatory school age laws. But Hess would go further and abolish all public schools; Kilpatrick was not willing to endorse that step. Said Hess: “The day that public education is abolished, that’s the day when public education will begin. Education should be returned absolutely to the communities, and if yome communities don’t want to support schools, then those communities should have no schools. In cities, we only have facilities for imbeciles —schools turning out savages.” Kilpatrick was not so sure that all “elements of our society are capable of coping with that problem,” but he indicated sympathy with Hess’s extremist view. Continued Karl Hess: “If kids were left out on the streets they would learn to read more effectively than they do in schools, where they don’t learn to read as an act of resistance.” He called for abolishment of all compulsory school attendance laws, and warming up to the subject, called for an end to all compulsory laws at all. “You’ve got to have compulsions in an orderly society,” Kilpatrick objected. “You can’t have freedom without order.” A young, bearded man wanted to know if either speaker had any feelings about setting optimum sizes for cities. Neither had, although both agreed that some curb on scale might be helpful. Kilpatrick was the most skeptical on this point, stating that “we must have a common body of law to bind all the people together.” TO A question about pollution control, Hess replied that he thought neighborhood controls were the most effective. Kilpatrick disagreed. “Jack believes in the state,” said Hess. “I believe in the neighborhood. There will be no end to pollution because of state and federal regulations...” Hess wound up with a flurry of extremist statements that seemed to chill the audience— certainly the more “conservative” members of the audience. He denounced big corporate farming in America as little more than Soviet collective farming transformed to the North American continent; denounced the “earl and baron” theory of history, whereby it is held that all great events are the result of Great Men and wars; and so on. Both men ended agreeing that the prospect of nuclear power is a dim one, with Kilpatrick—who admitted to a long advocacy of nuclear power development—being perhaps the most severe critic of nuclear power as it has been manifested in this nation up to now. On that mutually agreeable point—both men confessed they’d rather see more attention paid to solar energy development than to nuclear energy—another lively Nethers Community School Seminar ended. The next session is at 7 p.m. Friday, July 25, between an opponent and proponent of nuclear power.—Ray Dilley □ DODSON REUNION The reunion of the relatives and friends of the late Earnest and Neva Nicholson Dodson will be held August 3 at the Forest Grove School at Viewtown.

Sheep can be valuable addition ADDING sheep to cattle farms can be profitable, an animal scientist at Virginia Tech notes. “If the goal of one ewe per cow on every farm in Virginia could be reached, the gross agricultural income of the state would be increased by about $25 million," George A. Allen Jr., Tech professor of animal science and Extension sheep specialist, said. Allen said that sheep can be added to most beef farms without additional costs to the farmer. Sheep not only increase the grazing harvest from 70 per cent with cattle alone to 78 per cent with cattle and sheep together, but sheep also help to contain weeds and to reduce internal parasites, the Tech specialist added. The advantages of mixing sheep with cattle will be discussed by "Allen in detail on Friday, July 18, during the 12th annual Animal Industry Day to be held on the Tech campus from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. AN OPEN invitation is being extended to persons in agriculture throughout the state to attend the event, sponsored annually by Tech’s Extension Division and the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences’ department of animal science. Allen’s talk, “Adding Sheep to Cattle Farms to Increase Profit,’’ will be among several during an afternoon panel program on efficient forage use, at 1 p.m. at the livestock pavilion.

Erosion control ordinance backed <#■ & •* ' v A RAPPAHANNOCK’S planners have forwarded to the Supervisors an erosion and sedimentation control ordinance which will require anyone who undertakes a “land disturbing activity” to file a plan with the county engineer indicating what steps will be taken to prevent erosion and sedimentation run-off during and after construction. The plan will be reviewed by the county engineer who will follow up with an inspection tour of the construction site, to see if the plan is.followed. All counties and municipalities in Virginia are required to adopt such an oidinance. Among the land disturbing activities to be covered by the ordinance are private roads, if that road will be in a conservation zone or in an area of 14% or more slope or if the road will be more than 300 feet long. The fee to cover the county engineer’s inspection and review services will be $250. “That’s a pretty stiff fee for a private road,” Newbill Miller said. “You’ll gonna hear some squealing from the public on that one.” That might not be much, compared to what it would cost to repair the road after it erodes, Masterson said. And it the road has met the ordinance require Swindler retires CMS Addison L.

JOHN WALKER JENKINS AUCTIONEERING SERVICE Sperryville, Virginia 987-8211 merits, there’s little chance that it will erode, he said. “WHAT DO you suggest, Newbill?” Herbert Barksdale said to Miller. Newbill Miller said he didn’t know, “But I do know it’s not going to be reflected in a good light.’’ George Davis said the proposal to cover roads over 300 feet in length or located in areas of more than 14% slope “doesn’t accomplish what you think it will.” Roads in agricultural areas with as much as a 14% slope wouldn’t be covered, while the builder of a short road with a 3% slope in a conservation area would have to pay the $250 fee. The control should be the grade of the road, not the slope of the area in which it’s located, Davis said. After some discussion, the planners revised the proposed inspection fee for private roads to cost $100 for the first 300 feet and $10 per hundred feet after that.D Speeding arrests up STATE Police speeding arrests for the first half of 1975 climbed to 110,896, well above the 55,374 and 72,271 for the same periods of 1973 and 1974, says Colonel H.W. Burgess, the Department’s Superintendent. He said the arrests were for all types of speed law violations and not only for those of the 55 mile per hour limit, although the great majority was for the latter type. Deaths for the first half of 1975 numbered 452 or 13 less than for the first six months of 1974. Traffic volumes were up from four to five per cent. Arrests of commercial drivers for speeding numbered 16,151 during the period. Colonel Burgess stated that he felt apathy on the part of motorists and an apparent lack of concern over the energy problem were heavily contributing factors. □ Sperryville Firemens Carnival opened Wednesday night and will continue through Saturday night.

The proposed subdivision is located in Hampton Magisterial District approximately 2 miles south of Washington, Va. facing on Rts. 621, 626 and 668.

Jones, Clerk NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC Notice is hereby given to the public that Central Telephone Company of Virginia on June 30, 1975, filed earnings and financial data for the 12 months ended May 31, 1975, as required by the rules governing Annual Review of the State Corporation Commission of Virginia. The Company simultaneously filed with the Commission a rider to its current tariffs to become effective August 1, 1975. The proposed tariff rider, if allowed to become effective, would result in a 5.65% surcharge on rates for local telephone service, excluding intrastate toll, WATS and coin telephone rates. A copy of the proposed tariff plus the material submitted by the Telephone Company in support of its proposed tariff may be seen during normal working hours at the office of the State Corporation Commission, Blanton Building, Richmond, Virginia, or at any Centel business office where bills are paid. The Commission has suspended the effective date of the proposed surcharge until August 15, 1975, and prior to that date will issue an order giving its decision whether or not to further suspend the proposed surcharge tariff and establishing any further procedures for investigation and hearing on the Company’s need for rate relief.
