23219 Volume XXVD, Number 26 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIAN • THURSDAY, MAY 13, 1976 FIFTEEN CENTS County offices New building not needed, committee says By DAPHNE McCULLOUGH THERE is no new county office building in Rappahannock’s immediate future if the Board of Supervisors follow the recommendations of the Space Study Committee. Instead, as an interim solution to the space problem, the Committee voted to recommend that offices be moved into buildings already owned by the county. “There’s room there. It’s just a matter of someone putting it together,” said Walter Masterson, who with A. H. Kiser and Carson Johnson had investigated the space needs of the county constitutional offices and concluded that an immediate solution would be to use the jail building near the Court House. The jail includes living quarters for the jailer and his family. Fanning Baumgardner said the two rooms upstairs and two downstairs . measured approximately 12 by 14 square feet. The building also has a large basement used by the present occupants as additional living quarters, according to Masterson. Kiser pointed out that moving the sheriff’s department to the jail would eliminate the need for a jailer. He felt that someone would be there all the time to watch any prisoners. (The Rappahannock jail is used only as a lock-up facility for 24 hours; then prisoners are transferred to Fauquier County jail.) Kiser added that elimination of a jailer would save the county approximately $5,000 a year. CARSON JOHNSON said that the cell block included four cells upstairs and four downstairs. “The upstairs hasn’t been used (for holding prisoners) for a longtime. There are stolen items collected by Sheriff Estes stored there... Seems to me, the county could auction them off,” said Johnson. “The large passageway outside the cells could also be utilized for storage,” added Masterson, specifically mentioning the possibility of storing School Board records. The School Board now pays Warren county for storage facilities. Masterson also mentioned the possibility of storing records from Clerk Ned Jones’s office in the jail, eliminating part of Jones’s space problem. JAMES FALLS, Randall Updike and Hubert Gilkey’s report on the space needs of the social service offices brought out the possibility of solving the overcrowding at the Health Department by switching their offices with those of the food stamp program. The Food Stamp office has more space than it needs, more space than the Health Department has now, and a much better room arrangement, they said. Johnson questioned whether the County has the authority to move offices funded by the Federal GovSm Pace 2 Indictments returned FIFTY-EIGHT INDICTMENTS were handed down in Rappahannock County Circuit Court on Monday. William Michael Foster of Flint Hill had entered a plea of guilty to six counts of breaking and entering and is awaiting sentencing. C. W. Short of Stanley was indicted on eight counts of breaking and entering the B. J. Vierling property in 1975; John Paul Dodson of Flint Hill was indicted for the May 1975 breaking and entering of Bradford’s Store. Forty-two counts involved a group of young men from the Front Royal area including Larry Dean Land, Robert Winfrey Jackson, Carroll Robinson, Lawrence Turner and Eugene Green. Charges included breaking and entering the Aileen Manufacturing plant on Christmas Day, the Bowser Williams property, the theft of a CB radio from Herbert Foster, a police monitor from Gid Clater and a robbery at Reager’s Store near Chester Gap. The indictments followed extensive investigations by Trooper J. A. Watson and State Police Investigators Cecil Handy and Mike Ashley.

LATHAM, Maam Editor €75-3349 Costly government “IN MY judgement, we have more government than we need; probably more government than the people want; and certainly more government than the wage-earners can pay for.” These words by Senator Harry F. Byrd Jr., contained in his latest report to Virginians on his activities and attitudes in Congress, struck us as being especially pertinent right now, with local governments going through their budget-making and tax-setting procedures. Oh, we know—the usual complaint about Big Government is aimed at Washington and the federal establishment, and there’s no doubt that this is an awesome problem. But few people seem to realize how local government is growing, too, and of how costly it is becoming. In the first of a new series of governmental finance reports released last week, the Bureau of the Census, U. S. municipalities and townships totalled $37.1 billion in fiscal 1974-75, of which 12.6 billion were county taxes, $21.1 billion municipal taxes, and $3.4 billion township taxes. These staggering figures don’t mean much to the average taxpayer, except when the rate of increase is calculated—the total was an increase of 8.5 per cent over the preceding year and 25.1 per cent over fiscal 1971-72! INFLATION is a big factor in this increase, of course, but we suspect that the process of self-fulfilling bureaucracies is an even bigger factor, that Local Government may become as big a burden on the American taxpayer as federal Government is already. In some respects, such as taxes on real estate, the burden is already becoming excessive, especially for such enterprises as farming, which require a large amount of acreage. It is no exaggeration to say that many people are literally being forced out of their own homes by high taxes. One pat reply from the bureaucrats, when people show up at public hearings to complain, is that taxes are high because so many people are “demanding” so many services. People do expect more from government than they did in the Good Old Days, but it has been our observation that a lot of these so-called public “wants” are really bureaucratic wants. People want simple things like tennis courts and baseball fields; what they get instead is an elaborate bureaucracy that keeps saying it has to have more money so it can administer all these pressing public demands. THE bureaucrats have a way of generating their own momentum, and the current assumption of automatic pay raises every year—“to keep up with the cost of living”—is a good example. In all of the counties around here people on the public payroll seem to take automatic pay raises as their unquestionable due, the only quibble being over the actual percentage. We’ve got news for these people: Most of the guys out here who are paying for the bureaucrats, (and where labor unions are rare), aren’t getting any automatic pay raises when prices go up. Inflation reduces their income, not acts as a catalyst for a raise. Senator Byrd is right. And the first step for reducing the oppressive tax load is to reduce the size of government, at all levels. □ Student trip Students of Wakefield Country Day School in Huntly will leave for a two day trip to Philadelphia on Thursday. The trip, which is part of the school’s Bicentennial celebration, will include a tour of Philadelphia’s Independence National Historical Park, the city waterfront, the Franklin Institute, and nearby Valley Forge. Funds for the trip were raised by student sale of stationery. □ 4th meeting The second in a series of public meetings to plan Rappahannock county’s 4th of July Bicentennial celebration is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m., Monday, May 17th at the county court house in Washington. As discussed at the previous open meeting, the observance will begin at noon on the 4th following regular church services throughout the county. Hie theme will be a “country fair,” including the traditional games, sports, crafts, and entertainments popular with colonial Virginians of two centuries ago. It is also planned to have various displays, exhibits and booths, plenty of music and food, and a religious and patriotic program befitting the occasion. All will be topped off with the traditional evening fireworks display sponsored by Mr. Carrigan. The Bicentennial Committee urges anyone wishing to volunteer time, talents or suggestions to attend this meeting. □ Close-Up The shoelaces pictured last week were recogmzed by many readers 2 rie of Carol Miller was drawn from the entries.

No office building Fnm Pace 1 emment. Masterson agreed that the matter needed some investigation and Baumgardner said he would contact the proper Federal authorities for an answer. Roger Batchelder and Emory Russell reported that the Extension, Registrar and ASC offices were satisfied with their present office space. The 14 by 14 Zoning office is “adequate but they have to move,” said Batchelder, adding that he had tried to talk C. J. Miller at Rappahannock National Bank into making one more office upstairs over the Bank. Batchelder offered to share his office with the Zoning Office “if they have to move out in a hurry.” Johnson maintained it was necessary to set Court House space priorities before proceeding further with any recommendations. “Judge Moffett has to get another room,” said Masterson. “Give him the zoning office. He’s said he would be perfectly happy with it just the way it is.” Baumgardner said the best place for the Zoning Office would be over the Bank where the office would be close to the Clerk and the Commissioner of Revenue. He said there is an office available there for $75 a month. COMMITTEE Chairman T. Granville Eastham suggested that the members make a “strong recommendation” to the Supervisors that the jail be used for office space. “One person incarcerated for 24 hours is stopping us from using that entire building,” said Masterson. Johnson suggested the Committee recommend that the Sheriff’s office could be moved to the downstairs of the jail, with the School Board or Zoning and Registrars office using the present living room and dining room. “Hie two rooms upstairs are as big as any in the Court House that are used as offices, and there’s oceans of storage space in those cell blocks,” said Johnson. Baumgardner agreed to draw up the Committee’s recommendations and send them out to the members for any additions and deletions. The Committee will hold another meeting on Monday, May 24, before forwarding their suggestions to the Board of Supervisors. □ SPECIAL SERVICES “We cordially invite each and everyone to our Bring a Friend Sunday at Hopehill Baptist Church in Castleton, this Sunday May 16 at 10 a.m.” said the Rev.

Supervisors hear budget pleas SUPERVISOR Chairman Pete Luke didn’t receive a copy of Rappahannock County’s total working budget in time for last Thursday’s meeting of the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors, but the budget work sessions began as scheduled. Representatives from the Health Department, Chapter 10 Board, Sheriff’s Department, School Board and Library appeared to state their pleas for no cuts. Richard Sharp, administrative assistant for R. S. LeGarde, said the Health Department was requesting a $3,600 increase. “I’m usuaUy more nervous when I’m describing . a budget but I feel so good about this one. Rappahannock County gets value received for money spent in Public Health.” County shares of Health Department costs in Virginia rank from 18 to 45 percent and are based on a formula derived from “the true tax value of the county,” according to Sharp. While Rappahannock’s share has increased 3.7 percent, it’s still the lowest share paid in Planning District 9. (According to this formula, Fauquier County will pay the highest percentage possible—45 percent.) “I’m glad to see that we’re at least not in the top five,” commented Luke,” like we are in everything else.” SHARP explained that the increase was due, in large part, to having to restock the almost exhausted supplies of the Rappahannock Health Department. In Sharp’s opinion, the only way to make an appreciable cut in their budget would be to share facHities with another county. The Chapter 10 Board is requesting $5,805 in county funds, an increase of $1,161 over last year. According to George Muth, the county will receive $72,109 in mental health services for the $5,805 expenditure, a 1242 percent return on their investment. “We think we’re doing an excellent job,” said Muth. Rappahannock County School Superintendent 0. A. Norton agreed. “Chapter 10 is a lifesaver for a small school system,” said Norton. He estimated that the speech therapy program and psychologist services would cost $6,500 if supplied by the school system alone. Public Health Nurse Frances Thornton added that the county had not had any commitments to the State Institution since Rappahannock belonged to Chapter 10 and that “quite a few” former inmates had been returned to their homes. RAPPAHANNOCK Sheriff William Buntin addressed the Supervisors regarding his request for funds to hire an additional deputy. “We’re so busy, it’s impossible to make a thorough investigation, ’ ’ said Buntin. Buntin’s figures for the first four months of 1976 showed 55 criminal reports made in comparison to 85 for the entire previous year and 292 papers served in four months, versus 519 for the previous year. Buntin said his two full-time deputies are overworked, having two full shifts a day on weekends. A new deputy would start at $8,040 a year with the county only liable for one-third of the salary. The remainder would be paid by the state. Buntin felt sure the State Compensation Board would approve the hiring of an additional deputy if the Supervisors did. “ABOUT as tight as it can go,” was the way School Board Chairman E. N. Montague described the school budget. “It’s unfortunate the press stressed the eight percent increase over last year’s budget when the increased cost to the locality is only four percent,” said Montague. Luke questioned the proposed teacher salary scale. “It doesn’t make very good sense,” commented Luke of what he thought was a decrease for two years in percentage increase for some of the teachers. “I don’t believe in kicking a ground hornet’s nest if I can avoid it. It’s what they (the teachers) want,” said Montague. He explained that the teachers had requested equal salary stepsequal in dollars and cents, not in percentages. THE county library requested $3,569 for fiscal 1977. Librarian Mary Jameson, in a letter read by George Muth, said the library was actively used by 1,000 Rap pahannock citizens out of a county population of 5,099. The library more than doubled in use over the past year with 7,000 books circulated. Luke said he thought the total working budget would be completed by county auditor Walter Cox of Daniel Robinson Association of Charlottesville within a week. The supervisors hope to have it ready to advertise by the first week in June.—Daphne McCullough BLOOD DONOR The name of Peter Kramer was omitted from the list of blood donors which was presented to the newspaper for publication last week.
