Music for the dance will be provided by Jeff Harper, a household name to the area’s pop music fans. From the spring of 1975 through the fall of 1981, five nights a week, the Jeff Harper show ruled the airwaves of rural and suburban Northern Virginia. Broadcasting from WEER FM in Warrenton, Harper played records from an unusually diverse library of rock, oldies, jazz, blues, big band and bluegrass. “The Oasis,” as the station was affectionately nicknamed, is gone, replaced by yet another “safe formula network operation,” as Harder puts it. But Jeff is still around, living in nearby Delaplane and taking his show on the road most weekends. He's built a mobile sound system and performs at local parties, wedding receptions and school hops. Harper, a Rappahannock resident from 1971 through 1978. will be playing the hits and taking requests on Saturday night, July 3, from 8 p.m. until midnight.

For Further Study Shooting Range Amendment Tabled By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON KnppahanmH'k N«*w« Staff I rtltr "I don’t think we need a firing range in "the county, period!” insisted Albert Doub, speaking for the majority of the 30-odd people—most of them from Amissville—who attended last Wednesday's planning commission public hearing on a proposed amendment to the county’s zoning ordinance. The amendment would allow archery, skeet, trap or target shooting ranges subject to certain restrictions, by special use permit in an agricultural zone. Under current zoning regulations, ranges are not allowed anywhere under any conditions in Rappahannock County, attorney E. P. Luke appointed out, adding that failure to provide a legal mechanism for allowing that use could be deemed exclusionary. “It may be illegal and unconstitutional to say it (a shooting range) can’t go anywhere regardless of restrictions," acknowledged planning commissioner Newbill Miller. David Konick, Washington lawyer and the county’s zoning administrator, noted that if the issue is tested in court and failure to provide for that specific land use is found unconstitutional, then a shooting range could be put anywhere without restrictions. However, he described the ordinance amendment proposed by Luke on behalf of Robert and Ruth Bowers, owners of the Blue Ridge Gun Shop in Amissville, as inadequate. After learning from commonwealth's attorney Douglas Baumgardner that it is the planning commission’s responsibility to develop amendments to the zoning ordinance, Baumgardner, Luke and Konick were authorized to work with commissioners David Fannon and Charles Estes on a shooting range amendment which would provide adequate safety and noise controls. The commissioners will consider the group's proposal at their July 21 meeting. First Step Luke, in presenting the amendment at Wednesday’s hearing, explained that the Bowers are interested in building a ritle range on a 25-acre trace of land behind their Blue Ridge Gun business in Amissvillc. Since ranges aren't allowed in any zoning category, he said, the Bowers have proposed the ordinance amendment as the first step in setting up the legal mechanism for approval of a firing range. The county's agricultural zoning category was selected for allowance of shooting ranges by special use permit because that category includes fiat lands under 14 percent slope. Luke continued. "A firing range required fiat ground." Luke noted that if the ordinance amendment is adopted, applicants must comply with all the terms set out in the proposed amendment as well as any extra conditions set by the Board of Zoning Appeals. (The amendment restricts hours of operation to between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., requires a detailed site plan covering lay-out, parking, sound abatement measures and screening, specifies that the owner or his agent will be present at all times the range is in operation, prohibits consumption of alcoholic beverages on the premises and requires that the range he located at least 100 yards from any public road and 150 feet from adjoining property lines.) "We're here to consider an amendment to the zoning ordinance (which would allow shooting ranges by special use permit on agriculturally zoned land anywhere in the county)," Luke emphasized. The proposal doesn’t involve the range that the Bowers eventually want to build, he said. "Technically, that's not before you at all," Luke told the commissioners. Range Needed Robert Bowers maintained that Rappahannock County, with ten times as many hunters as golfers or tennis players, needs a place where people can shoot, a place for young people to learn “the right wav. the safe way" to handle a firearm. The range he plans as part of Blue Ridge Guns will be supervised by certified instructors. "If its properlv run. with no drinking, then it's a family sport and we need it." Bowers maintained. Susan Wittl maintained that the range would be an attribute to the county “in a recreational sense." "Most people in the county have guns but most don’t have a place to shoot or to sight a gun," said Bob Ludwick, the third and final speaker in favor of the ordinance amendment. "1 don’t want to get into an argument over w hether Amissville is the right place but 1 don’t think county laws should intrinsically forbid a range." Addressing safety concerns. Ludwick said he’d never heard of a serious accident at a firing range. "The worst thing you can say about it is that it tends to be somewhat noisy.” (Continued on Page 4) Supervisors Loan Sewer Funds At a joint meeting Monday night with the Water and Sewer Authority, the Rappahannock supervisor approved an agreement to loan up to $105,000 to the WSA to pay for design work on Sperryville’s sewer system. Under the terms of the agreement, which runs from July 1, 1982, to July 1, 1983, money will be loaned at no interest with the WSA’s property in Sperryville as collateral. Buchart-Horn, engineers for the project, requested the county to guarantee money for design work in the event that expected grant funds —$1.4 million from the Environmental Protection Agency and an additional $500,000 to $600,000 from the community development block grant program—fail to materialize. "I’m not about to tell you that it’s 100 percent sure but my experience of 15 years says it’s what you can expect until all the pieces of paper are signed on he bottom line, said Hank Gerhart, engineer with Buchart Horn. ‘‘Certainly this is not something that’s steeped in controversy so 1 think it (the grant awards) will go fairly smoothly. “The State Water Control Board staff b enthusiastic about getting something done (to correct the problem of Sperryville's malfunctioning septic fields which have polluted the Thornton River and contaminated ground water in the community, creating what is ranked as the number five health hazard in Virginia).” Gerhart said. "When you find them in that position, they’ll bend to help you as much as they can.” With repayment expected when grants are awarded, the vote by the supervisors to authorize the one year loan was 3-0 with H. B. Wood abstaining and Clarence Baldwin absent from the meeting. Lions Club Auction The Rappahannock Lions Club will hold an auction Friday. June 25. to benefit Lions Club projects.

Rowe Hired The Rappahannock School Board at a special meeting last Thursday night approved the employment of Pamela M. Rowe as coordinator of special services, a new administrative position proposed tor the past three years and finally endorsed by the board during this year's budget w ork. A resident ot Front Royal. Rowe taught fourth and fifth grade at the county's elementary school for five years before taking off last year to earn her master's degree in administration and supervision from the University of Virginia and serve an administrative internship in Frederick County. She returned to Rappahannock for 1981-82 as a sixth grade teacher. According to superintendent Robert Estabrook, k^*c's special education experience is limited to serving on eligibility and placement screening committees. Fstabrook said, however, that he secs the new administrator as providing coordination between the regular classroom teachers and Title I. gifted and talented and special education programs, noting that Rowe’s experience in the regular classroom and in administration is suited to provide that coordination. He emphasized that she is particularly strong in planning. In addition to hiring the new administrator, the board authorized entering a contract with Moselv-Henning Associates, architects from Richmond, tor providing services “up to the blueprint (Continued on Page 4) — Kappahanr>«M-k News Photo lyorrie >oung A MINI-TORNADO touched down in Huntly last Wednesday night just long enough to cut a swath of destruction at Cdr. and Mrs. A.R. Kreutz’s home. The winds uprooted 24 trees, including a white cherry that was the family’s “pride and joy,” three apple trees and a dozen or so locusts. The storm also interrupted electrical service to the area for approximately 13 hours. Potomac Edison personnel were out cutting away tree limbs downed by the tornado until 4 a.m. Thursday morning, according to Kreutz. Planners Okay Payne’s Rezoning "It was a county mistake and the county's obligated to correct it." said Charles F.stes in supporting a commercial re/oning tor Luther Payne at last Wednesday's planning commission public hearing. Zoning administrator David Konick told the commissions that it had been the intent when the zoning ordinance was adopted in 1973 to designate Luther Payne’s property as commercial. The parcel, located on Route 211 cast of Washington had been in commercial use for some time as the site of Payne's garage. But instead, two adjoining lots, two that were and are in residential use. were colored in commercial on the official zoning map that was adopted along with the ordinance. The error didn’t eonte to light. Kon.ick continued, until the owner’s son. Reid Payne, recently applied to the Board of Zoning Appeals to open a pool and game room in the old garage, a use allowed by special permit in a general business-commercial /one. The B7.A members decided they couldn’t grant the permit because the property was actually zoned agricultural. although the designation was made in error, and they recommended that Payne seek a rezoning. Speaking on behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Payne. Randolph Clater told the commissioners that the properly has been in commercial use for the past 20 years. They thought it was zoned commercial and they would like to have it zoned commercial." Neighboring landow ner Gene Whet/el announced that he had to object to Payne’s request as long as he adhered to rules outlined at the earlier hearing, specifically that the game room v Id not have a public address system and that alcoholic beverages wouldn't be served or allowed on the premises. "The only thing the Paynes are asking tor at this point is commercial zoning—nothing else, just zoning for a garage and repair shop." Clatcr responded. "Are they applying to open the garage again?" asked Virginia Cloud, an adjoining landowner. "They're only asking tor (Continued on Page 5) FEC Taps Demos’ Wrist A letter dated May 10. 1982, from the Federal Flection Commission gives Rappahannock County Democrats a tap on the wrist for a violation of federal election campaign laws during the 1980 presidential campaign.

Baliles concluded that notice and an opportunity to be heard are required before the Equalization Board may issue a final order adjusting a real property assessment.

Activities At Canton Commune Center On Scientific Farming By DIANA BIRD Rappahannock V%» Special 11 rilcr The Australian group I have joined to take the Silk Road tour into western China as far as Urumogi got off to a dramatic start today with a visit to Sho Chiao commune, an hour and a half's drive from Canton. Sho Chiao covers a large area with 68,000 miles ot farm land. Seventy-two thousand people live and work there. The commune specializes in producing silk and fish. Sugar cane is also grown. A tributary of the Pearl River runs through it, linking it readily by boat to Canton. Mulberry trees grow everywhere, young ones, replaced every seven or ten years. They are kept small to facilitate harvesting the leaves to feed the silk worms. The leaves are hand-picked and stuffed in an orderly fashion into bushel baskets and carried to the worms which.are kept on the lime covered floors of roofed sheds. The lime sanitizes the worms’ environment. There are 2,400 sheds for the silk worms in this commune. We saw moths hatching from their cacoons arrayed on flat woven bamboo trays. Immediately they are weighed into two ounce quantities and placed on paper covered sectional flats where they begin laying eggs at once. The eggs adhere tightly to anything they are laid on. After ten days the eggs hatch into worms and on to the leaves in the sheds. After being fed every four hours for 22 days, they begin to spin their cacoons, which takes two days. For this process they are placed on upright racks about three feet long and two feet wide made of loops of w icker. Once the cacoons are formed, some of them are sorted and separated. Small sections of the ends of the cacoons are shaved off and the female worms are identified and saved to hatch and produce more moths and eggsSoften In Water Most of the cacoons are taken to a nearby factory where they are put into basins of hot water to soften them for the process of removing the thread. The factory is a large building where machines are arranged in two flanking rows tended by about 60 women located at regular stations. When the cacoons have been softened enough in warm water, the workers pick them up one at a time and throw them against a small spinning wheel. This catches the thread and leads it through a series of holes to a spinning reel almost a foot in diameter. Think of the w av a sewing machine is threaded and imagine putting the thread on a spool rather than spinning it off. When the reels are filled, the workers transfer them to other machines where the thread is unreeled onto metal spools almost twice the si/e of the original reel. The threads are removed from the larger reels, ftappaJtannnck £fcuia Rappahannock & Adjoining Counties per year $8.00 Elsewhere in the U S. per year $10.00 Outside the U S per year $8 00 plus postage SUBSCRIPTION RATES BY MAIL ALL PAYABLE IN ADVANCE ( (New ( ) Renewal ( ) Check Enclosed NAME_ ADDRESS _ _ CITY_ STATE_ ZIP _ _ Entered as second class mail at the Post Office in Warrenton.

The hanks are then twisted several times and folded once into a short rope which looks like a large piece of pulled taffy, weighing perhaps two pounds. All this work requires dozens of persons doing routine but exact operations. At this point, no thread spinning has occurred. None seems to be done at the commune. Each thread, almost invisible and looking like a spider's thread in a web, is eventually spun with 10 or 12 others into a thread of silk for weaving. The surprising thing is the whiteness of the thread hanks. I thought of “The Girl with the Flaxen Hair." It is lustrously beautiful. If you have done embroidery or knitting and have bought hanks of wool or thread, you can imagine the condition of the silk as it leaves the commune's factories. To be in the presence of so much silk and to observe the great effort and skill required to produce it gives one respect for the product, reinforcing its traditional preciousness. Worms Feed Fish Now why the fish at this commune? The worms' droppings make good tish food. Four types of fish are grown in the ponds, fed with grass as well. We did not see the details of the fish » culture but we were taken to holding ponds at the riverside where the fish are loaded into boats bound for Canton ahd perhaps elsewhere. The tish were more than a foot long and looked beautiful. We were served one tor lunch —really a dinner—at the commune. I have never eaten better fish, or any other food such as we were given, platter after platter of traditional Chinese dishes, different entirely from what we know in America, although not different altogether in appearance. 1 have skipped supper since to w rite this. We have been given a banquet by the head of the Canton travel bureau and served other wonderful meals but none has improved on the commune food. The scrambled eggs and shrimp was my favorite, as before. 1 noticed our guides relished this dish too. The fish droppings recovered from the ponds are used to fertilize and mulberry trees and the agricultural crops. Almost 20 percent of the fertilizer requirement is met in this way. This cycle of culture was designated scientific farming by the commune spokesman, an earnest but affable Mr. Ho whom I left feeling I had made a friend. As on my previous visit to a Canton community, we were shown a hospital, two schools and a residence.

But the income per person is rising steadily and on this commune, we were told the average has reached 420 yuan a year. The commune is shooting for 1,000. A yuan's value is about $1.60. There were about 50 children in each simple classroom equiped only with a blackboard. After nursery school level, the children had larger quarters than 1 had seen previously in a city and some modern toys. The children were at tables in an orderly. controlled environment. There were two teachers for every ten pupils. On previous visits to nursery schools, we were always given a show of the children acting and signing. This time I saw them interacting with their teachers in regular sessions. The littlest ones were being taught a song accompanied by a teacher beating a tambourine. We were told the teacher works to teach the average student but that both ha ndicapped and especially able students are helped on weekends and their parents are encouraged to work w ith them as well. I he nospuai naa an x-ray but all the facilities were of the simplest character. Mothers are allowed to stay with their sick children and 1 could see relatives of adult patients sitting beside them. Consumer Goods The noticable change in living conditions over the past three years is in the prevelance of consumer items. The home we visited has a transistor radio with a tape player. A TV stood prominently on a shelf and there was an electric fan in the ceiling and another on the table. Colorful pictures decorated the walls and there was a lamp in the shape of an elephant with a light bulb—appropriately small —extending from its trunk. Other figurines and traditional Chinese objects were behind glass in a case. There were several lights. Previously, 1 had seen provision for what appeared to be one 40-watt bulb. Not all households are as well provisioned as the one we saw. TV is popular and radios can pick up Hong Kong broadcasts. There seems to be one Canton TV station used extensively for teaching English and math and showing entertaining social dramas of uplifting character. Hong Kong TV shows violent plays and Julia Child type Chinese cooking lessons. The home we visited had a separate building for a kitchen—a place for perhaps four woks heated by wood or coal. A well was beside a modern basin attached to the wall with a drain located in the floor. There is no way to convey the scene I am encountering in China; such a down-toearth existence everyone lives but the variety is staggering. 1 want to film everything to bring back the message of differences and astonishment where human labor is the basis for everything. Activity, instead of being boring or the same, is full of individuality. I came to China again fearful that this system cannot work or succeed. Who but the Chinese would attempt to organize and modernize a quarter ot humanity? Beginning at starvation level? So far. 1 can't conclude anything but the Chinese appear too busy even to pose the question. We asked to see schools at the commune and at the end we were taken to a primary and middle school. Turning a corner, we unexpectedly walked into a great old temple and dwelling complex, an architectural remnant of by-gone davs. The effect was one ot perreci balance and scale with a great hall in the canter flanked by two other buildings making a huge court yard from which to look into the temple with its giant altar at the back. Children were playing pingpong at three tables. The buildings were decorated with carved wood and stone ornamehts. The occupants of the school seemed oblivious of the grandeur in which they were living and working. 1 was overwhelmed.

RIAlTOt FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE A government study uncovered the fact that of all people over the age of 65, only 6 percent are financially independent. All of the lucky 6 percent became so because of prior investment in real estate. A good start on the road to your own financial independent r is through ownership of a home. It's the s .undest long-term investment you can make. Today, real estate is one of the only investments for which the average buyer can receive a long term loan of 20 to 30 years because the lenders know that the security for the loan is a good one. The homeowner pays something into this loan every month which gives him more and more dollar ownership each year. The portion of the monthly payment which goes for taxes and interest is deducted from his taxable income. Best of all. the value of your home normally more than keeps pace with the cost of living. This could mean that once your loan is paid off. the selling price of your home is double or triple what it was when you bought it.

Audit Bureau of Circulation S Thursday, June 24,1982 Range Amendment Tabled (Continued from Page 1) Identifying himself as an acoustical engineer with 35 years experience. Bob Leibold questioned whether it would be monetarily feasible to build an amphitheater for a shooting range which would comply with noise restrictions set in Article 13 of the county’s zoning ordinance. He maintained that noise levels at a shooting range will be high enough to cause ear damage as well as pain. To abate the noise, Leibold said, will require 1,000 feet of very dense evergreen foliage. Doesn’t Apply The zoning administrator explained that a shooting range in an agricultural district wouldn’t have to meet Article 13’s noise regulations. (The underlined title of Article 13 specifies that it applies to commercial, industrial, commercial recreational, institutional, multi-family housing, attached single family housing, rental, special housing and condominium housing projects, mobile home courts or trailer parks.) Under the proposed shooting range amendment, noise limitations would be attached to a special use permit by the Board of Zoning Appeals, Konick added. As to the need for a shooting range. Leibold said he had no problem with sighting his guns on his own property, that he shoots three, four or five rounds every year or two. He reported that Prince William County is currently having difficulties with a firing range operated there by the Izaak Walton League, a range he described as much better designed than what Bowers plans to build. Distance that noise will travel from a range depends on a number of variables, including humidity and temperature on any given day, he said. "Go by Clark Brothers (a gun shop with firing range in Fauquier County). It sounds like there’s a war going on.’’ According to Liebold, there are no houses within a half mile on either side. ’’There's got to be a reason for that...You can hear Gark Brothers before you can see it." Jim Grehan, Emile Smet and Dot Grehan all voiced opposition to a shooting range in general and to a range on the Bowers’ property in particular. “I want to keep peace and quiet in Rappahannock County,” announced Mrs. Paul A. Poling, clapping her hands enthusiastically as she sat down but inducting only one other member of the audience to join her applause. "Guns are inherently dangerous,” said Sperryville attorney Bill Fletcher, maintaining that a shooting range would pose a safety threat to the surrounding area. He said he’d talked to shooting range operators who admitted receiving complaints about ’’bullets whizzing around” from landowners a half-mile away. He maintained that any outdoor range should be located in a sparsely populated area. Robert Linquist told the planning commissioners that a shooting range will attract people from surrounding counties, not just serve the needs of Rappahannock residents. "This will affect everyone in Rappahannock. I hope you take a long, hard look at it,” said S#hh Latham. “It will affect (fhd values which in turn afpct the tax base.” Jon hf organ described the range a* “commercialization going’’ next door to you...Th»t*s theiuue.” More Opposed W. B. Weaver said he opposed a rifle range anywhere in Rappahannock and Rose Bowey, another next-door neighbor of Blue Ridge Guns, said that the county will no longer be a peaceful, tranquil place to live if a shooting range is allowed. Gladys Havstad told the commissioners that a rifle range will generate additional traffic, noting that the Bowers will need a lot of customers in order to make the venture profitable. "A gun range is not an agriculturally related purpose...It’s really a commercial use,” said Alvin Henry, maintaining that the proper way to proceed would be for Bowers to find a commercial area for his range. (Under current ordinances, a shooting range is not allowed either by permit or by right in an industrial or general business-commercial zone.) Henry said that last year, while working on a farm two miles away from Clark Brothers’ shooting range, he could hear the firing “just as plain as day.” The presence of a range will lower property values, he said, expressing concern over the effect of the noise on livestock, particularly dairy cattle. “It’s not possible, with high powered rifles, to have 100 percent safety within one mile (of a rifle range),” maintained Phil Irwin. A range is “totally inappropriate anywhere in Rappahannock County,” he said, sparking a round of applause from the audience. "Next year, in order for you to obtain a hunting license, you will have to pass a safety course and qualify with a weapon," Bowers predicted, noting that such a law was recently adopted by Florida and is currently under consideration by the Virginia Game Commission which will work for its adoption here in 1984. Nothing Is 100 Percent Luke described the county’s failure to allow for a rifle range anywhere in Rappahannock as ‘‘patently unreasonable...Even if you have 5,000 acres and want to put a rifle range in the middle, you can’t do it!" That denies people the right to use their property in a reasonable manner.” "Nothing in this life is going to be guaranteed 100 percent safe. That’s not a feasible argument. The question is, can it be reasonably safe?" Luke continued. “It obviously can...People are not dropping like flies all around us (at ranges in neighboring counties). Neither are hordes of people coming in complaining about going deaf...A rural county is much more suitable for a range because it's not densely populated," Luke said, adding that Rappahannock should have a mechanism in its ordinance for allowance of a shooting range, provided reasonable criteria are met. Even if alcohol isn’t allowed on the premises, Emile Smet asked, what's to stop shooters at the rifle range from keeping a six pack of beer or a whiskey bottle in their cars? "I have a license to protect,” Bowers replied. “I wouldn’t sell a box of 22 shells if I thought someone was drunk. There are some people who can’t go anywhere without a beer or a bottle in the car but they don’t come to a gun shop.” Somewhere Nofeey After the public hearing had been closed, commissioner David Fannon suggested that if a gun range is allowed in Rappahanock, “it should be somewhere that’s already noisy,” proposing a commercial or industrial zone instead of an agricultural zone. He added that the problem created by not allowing a gun range anywhere in the county will be corrected in zoning ordinance revisions now being studied by the planning commission. In response to repeated concerns regarding safety, Bowers said the range would be built eight feet into the ground and surrounded by mounds of dirt 15 feet high with additional mounds of dirt behind targets. “You wouldn't be able to hear or see the range 100 yards away. You wouldn’t even know it was there.” The amendment as proposed includes “nowhere near enough legal information on design,” Miller responded. Konick agreed that the requirements for a special use permit should be more specific particularly as regards standards set for noise abatement. In order to avoid difficulties with enforcement of noise standards, he said, controls should be instituted at the design stage with the burden on the applicant to have an expert certify that standards have been satisfied. “What has been proposed (by Luke). 1 don’t think is acceptable...but I agree there’s a point that it (shooting range) should be allowed somewhere,” Miller stated. With responsibility for developing an acceptable amendment resting with the planning commission, according to the commonwealth’s attorney, the commissioners agreed to table the issue until their July meeting when they will consider a revised amendment drafted bv Luke. Konick, Baumgardner, Fannon and Estes. Rowe Hired (Continued from Page 1) stage” for the new combination bus shop-central office building, the superintendent reported. Services at a cost ceiling of $2,500 include site evaluation, research on applicable state and local building regulations, specifications for bids on the project and other background information, Estabrook said. The data is expected to be received from the architects within the coming week. The board will then schedule a meeting to review the information and authorize advertising the construciton project for bids. The superintendent noted that the new building is still slated to be finished by the end of August in time for the school board offices to be moved out of the elementary school before classes begin. Car Wash Rappahannock’s varsity and junior varsity cheerleaders have planned a car wash, the first in a series of fund raisers, for Saturday, June 26, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Rappahannock County High School. Charges will be $2 for a wash and $1 to have the interior vacuumed. Money that the cheerleaders raise will be used to send the varsity contingent to summer camp and to buy new uniforms for both squads. Other fund raising activities planned for the summer include a spaghetti dinner, bake sale and another car wash. Taxpayers Are Disaster Victims By PAT S AI.TONSTALL Rappahannork Nrt%« (»u****t (<»lumni«l The biggest tax assessment in its history is over but the aftermath is just beginning. Rappahannock property owners only now are realizing what has hit them. Rappahannock taxpayers are like disaster victims emerging from a storm or bomb shelter. Everyone is a bit stunned. They take a quick survey of the damage suffered by their properties, then tour the neighborhood to see how others fared by comparison. They add up the damage as best they can, but the rules for placing a dollar value on everything are very confusing. They hear that five among them have been chosen as “equalizers” to untangle the mess, assess the damage and aid those damaged, according to their losses. Some do receive help—but only when they request it in person and prove it. The people pretty much leave the equalizers alone to work in peace for several months. The confusing figures are seen and discussed by enough people to begin to make sense, or, at least, an understandable picture. Some who are damaged are denied any help. Some do receive a fair share of help. And a few, spared by the disaster, seem to receive some aid anyway. Things don’t seem quite fair. Alot of Rappahannock folks are mad. They waited patiently — even trustingly'—from last January until now for the Equalization Board to play fair with them, and left it alone to do its job. No public attention to the Board’s work was made until the May 13 Rappahannock News story—this after three months of Equalization Board hearings. A small percentage of property owners—just ten percent of all tax cards on file, many of which belong to one owner—was "equalized." More than 90 percent was not. These landowners h*ve received only the original Hall assessments of land and buildings. They were provided with no detail as to how Hall figured the gross values. To learn this, they would have to go in person to the Commissioner of Revenue office, locate their cards, figure them out, then do the same with neighbors’ cards. The few with the nerve and know-how to do this, talked. The word got around. Feelings of betrayal began. More came to see their cards. More felt wronged. Some people who had trusted the process and never complained are among those most wronged: they have been left with higher property values than comparable properties lowered by the Equalization Board—and may not even know this yet; or they were raised by the Board to “balance” a neighbor who complained; or they are in the dark because their entire neighborhood was bypasse dby the Board because no one has complained. So, what now? Now, in that most American of traditions, they are seeking help from their elected officials. the Board of Supervisors. As well they should. It is always fascinating to watch the behavior of elected officials when the heat is on. In as classic case of: “He went that-a-way!” — of pointing anywhere but at oneself—Supervisor Richard Latham turned the heat back onto his own constituents. According to the June 10 Rappahannock News, he: blamed them for not going in numbers before the Equalization Board with their appeals; chided them for complaining at all if they are among the 260 land use applicants; and shooed them off to circuit court, to go tell it to the judge. In the same News story. Supervisor Estes apparently feels that the new assessments are much fairer than the old. Few would argue with that. A look at the old assessments is revealing. And, we also have Equalizer T. V. Williams’ public ad; mission to all kinds of biasef in setting assessments in past years (May 13 Rappahannock News). But the Estes concern begs the question of whcthef the 1982 Assessment is fair t *h. v So here we have a risin rage among property owners, alot of confusion, probably much misunderstanding—and a deep sense of powerlessness and betrayal. And always, fear. When Latham singles out his land use constituents from his non-land use constituents, he is playing to fear and envy, that can only divide two groups of equally valuable citizens. To what end? When Estes refers to past assessments, he plays on the well-known fact that small property owners were disproportionately assessed in favor of large landowners. Yet a week later at the June 14 Supervisors' meeting, Estes clearly disapproved of the large versus small landowner appeal. No mention has been made of the practise of deliberate discrimination against Rappahannock “newcomers”. In past assessments, the gross overassessment of new construction was by design and "premeditation” by our past boards of tax appraisers, according to Fred Forberg in the May 13 News. In short, some of us have unfairly carried the county tax burden for year. Yet, how is it helpful to create or let stand a new set of disparities, a new class of "Favoreds”? The past has taught us that such injustices, once in place, can continue for years with little or no public protest. Our Supervisors should be glad that some constituents still look to them for help in seeing that every property is treated fairly. The history of past official lack of concern about unequal treatment does not encourage one to hope for too much. The apathy so evident in Rappahannock political life didn’t develop overnight. Public cyncism springs from years of unfair treatment—the very unfairness acknowledged by Equalizer T. V. Williams. After that, why shouldn't people feel they "can't fight city hall” and that it will be "business as usual”? 1 have heard this too often in this county. Two members of the new Board of Equalization served as county tax appraisers in past years; the present chairman also chaired the old /tax board. Moreoever, rural folks do not appear to be eager to attend public meetings or rummage through Commissioner of Revenue files. Many, many do not even realize they have that right—not only to review their own taxes, but to demand to see and then review their neighbors’ cards. And even if they know they can, is it not fair to assume that many are reluctant to do this, to be seen looking at a neighbor’s card? Finally, some folks fear that they may not understand the cards—may make fools of themselves or appear ignorant. Even sophisticated people have trouble with these cards; many need the help of Commissioner Merle Scoggins (always freely and generously given, I might add.) So, what could the Board of Supervisors—or the Equalization Board—do to make things easier for people? Well, for one thing, they could conduct small informal evening meetings around the county—teach-ins on tax assessments. Had it been done earlier, it might have assisted the work of the Equalization Board. Mrs. Scoggins could be invited to explain. A blow-up of a sample yellow card could be used to take the mystery out of the whole procedure, with explanations about each line—how houses are figured, what the crossouts and recrossouts mean, what the basis for each assessment is. Questions should be encouraged and given approval—and answered with straight answers. A second suggestion: that each supervisor find a couple of people to volunteer in his district to accompany constituents who desire such help with their cards. Or, all the board could form such a committee of such helpers, I feel sure Mrs. Scoggins would agree to train them. It could be done at one session. Anything will be better than the wall of unconcern so far exhibited by the Board of Supervisors, who represent us all. Then, and only then, will they be justified in pointing a finger of blame at their own constituents—when they have bent every effort to help people come forward, when they have bent fevery effort to insure that his re-assessment is truly equal. As to the Equalization Board, it has far from discharged its responsibility. It has intimidated people who have come forward. Even a sophisticated newcomver * a successtul businessman, reported to me that he was greeted with: “Well! What’s YOUR complaint, Mr. X?" in a tone that suggested he was being unreasonable even to be there appealing. Others have reported great rudeness and curtness by some certain board members. This is inexcusable. At the June 7 public hearing on the tax rate, Mrs. Helen Kilby raised the issue of the Equalization Board's failure to review and balance all assessment cards, whether a complaint is made ornot. Equalization Board Chairman H. S. Barksdale was stated that there were instructed by Fred Forberg not to make a countywide reassessment but only to review appeals and neighboring properties. David Jordan, Appraisal Supervisor with the Virginia Department of Taxation in Richmond, confirmed this week in a telephone interview that the Board's job was not to make a reassessment but to correct known errors. However, he said, the Board is under no restriction only to review appeals and neighboring lands. It has been merely a matter of practice, he said, for boards to handle only appeals. There is no property barred from their consideration, he added, should they choose to widen their review. The problem of a blanket approach arose in the 1930 case of Taylor v. Lynchburg. Interestingly, the 1929-30 falling economy figured prominently in the case. After a 1929 general reassessment of all Lynchburg real estate, a board of equalization reviewed and changed 130-40 assessments. The 1929-30 crash and depression was so devastating that 1929 assessments suddenly were unfair and actually higher than the fair market value of the county by the end of the 1930. On December 30, the Equalization Board ordered a 20 percent uniform reduction of all assessments. The Lynchburg Commissioner of Revenue, Taylor, held this to be an illegal action and sued the Board of Equalization. The Virginia Supreme Court held for Taylor. Result: equalizations or reassessments must be done on an individual, property by property basis. Ruled Inadequate (Continued from Page 1) The Attorney General’s ruling does not address several other notice provisions involved with the Equalization Board, according to local attorney David Konick. He reported that section 58-903 of the Virginia Code requires the Equalization Board to give public notice of each sitting at least ten days beforehand in a newspaper of general circulation in the locality. The law also stipulates that notice of when and where the Equalization Board is sitting must be posted at the courthouse and each voting precinct by the sheriff or h]^’deputy, the attorney said. As to the powers of the Equalization Board to decide when it will cease hearing complaints from property owners, Konick reported that the code gives that authority to the governing body of a locality. In addition to setting the date by which property owners must make application for relief to the Equalization Board, Konick said, the supervisors may also set the deadline for all applications to be finally disposed of by the Equalization Board. The supervisors, in exercising their authority in both instances, must do so by ordinance, he added. Konick pointed out that the code further stipulates that “all such deadlines shall be clearly stated on the notice of assessment.” — Rappahannock News Photo/Lome Young AMISSVILLE ANNUAL FIREMEN’S CARNIVAL was held June 17-20, highlighted by crowning ceremonies on Friday night.

V Letters To The Editor Silliness To the editor: It’s difficult to answer seriously a bit of silliness like the Will Hoare letter on his missing rooms (June 17 News). But. since he tossed me the opportunity, I will. His eight-room house, as represented on his property tax card on file with the Commissioner of Revenue, is wrong, says Hoare. It should read “12 rooms", to include the famous four, reportedly missing. Eq. Board: take note. Four new rooms deserve your attention, surely. Equalize—and do right by Mr. Hoare. The Hoare house is in good company. Lots of cards are missing structures quite visible to any visitor to those properties. One giant landowner is said to be missing over 100 tenant houses. The Moore farm "lost" its big white barn next to Fodderstack Road. I have personally reported assorted “missing" tenant house sites to the Eq. Board. It is now their job to see that all of these are ‘‘found’’—and assessed. After all. we are constantly exhorted by the Eq. Board, not to mention the Supervisors, to bring such matters before them. All good citizens should respond like Mr. Hoare. I'm glad to see someone make an honest house out of the Hoare house. In my guest column two weeks ago, I failed to mention one large detail about the Hoare house. Jerry Hall's initial assessment of $91,300 on this house didn't hold. The Eq. Board dropped it $20,000. No reason or basis given—just slash and drop. Come now, Eq. Board: $20,000? I guess it must he because of that embarassment. on the block — the 14-roomer belonging to Eq. Board Chairman Barksdale, still at a low $61,300. Mr. Hoare doesn't know a serious issue when it hits him—or his house. If he could just get hold of an elephant or even a straw and pull hard, maybe he could get his head out of the sand.

The seniors are also grateful for the continued interest shown by the county’s citizens. Our success was dependent upon you and we thank you very much. LAVONNE ADKINS 1982 Class President How To Do It 1. Go to the Commissioner of Revenue’s office in Washington. Ask Commissioner Merle Scoggin for the cards for any properties you wish to compare—your own, your neighbors’ or a similar farm or house in another district. She will help you find the right cards. Just give her the names and approximate locations. 2. Ask for a place in a side room to sit down and review them. Tell her you may need her help and that you will call her if you do. Ask her to get you started on a card, if you wish. She has helped me on all these questions. 3. If you prefer not to stay there but to go home and review the cards privately, ask her just to copy whatever cards you need. You will need just one side of the card. She or you can be sure the card owner’s name is written in. Each copy will cost twentyfive cents. 4. If you stay there to review them, copy down all important facts about house size, square foot values, tenant house site values, outbuilding values, and note all crossouts. Ask Mrs Scoggin to explain each set of crossouts to you. Generally, red crossouts were made by Hall. Black crossouts were changes made by the Equalization Board. No crossouts means Hall’s original assessments stand. Be sure to get all the total figures, too, both the Hall totals and the totals after any changes. You can do the arithmetic checking with a pocket calculator later. 5. Then go to see the Equalization Board. Make an appointment first. Ask someone to accompany you. Two heads are better than one in a meeting like this. Clarification The 1982-83 county tax rate on personal property is $5.60 which will be applied on one-fourth the finance value of licensed motor vehicles. Last year, Rappahannock's personal property rate was $1.40 on 100 percent of finance value. The higher rate applied to one-fourth the value works out to the same levy as in the previous year, according to the commissioner of the revenue. FEC (Continued from Page 1) failure to note who was paying for the advertisement or broadcast without authorization by the national Carter-Mondale committee. In each case, the FEC took no action other than the issuance of the warning to avoid improper advertising in the future and in every instance, the amount of the unauthorized expenditure was less than $1,000.

Semi-Finals Matches played in the past two weeks have narrowed down the field for this weekend’s championship. In earlier rounds of Rezoning (Continued from Page 1) commercial zoning and nothing else,” Clater repeated. Once the property is zoned commercial, the landowner is entitled to all uses allowed by right in that category and can apply to the Board of Zoning Appeals for other uses permitted with a special use permit, commissioner Werner Krebser noted. He added that the garage, a use that the property was put to when the ordinance was adopted in 1973, would be allowed to continue under the "grandfather” clause. Acknowledging that Payne’s property was intended to be zoned commercial when the county’s ordinances were adopted in 1973, Krebser said he still had a problem in approving the rezoning application without also addressing the issue of what should be done about the two parcels which were zoned commercial by mistake in place of Payne’s lot. “What is going to happen to those other two parcels?" he asked, pointing out that Rappahannock's comprehensive plan specifies that commercial zoning should be kept off Route 211 except in the Flat Woods area between Washington and Sperryville. By majority vote with Krebser opposed, the commissioners recommended that the board of supervisors approve Payne’s rezoning application. "The time to handle the rest of the issue is in the revision of the new ordinance." Miller noted. The commissioners set a work session on the proposed ordinance revisions for June 30 at 8 p.m. in the courthouse.
