MYTH traditional leisure, charm
w and graciousness, Virginia
proudly upholds its titles of "Old
Dominion" "Cradle of a Nation"
and Birthplace of Presidents"
Rich in historical associations, the
romance of Virginia is interviewer in
warp and wool of a nation, its ira
ditions and lore deep in the fibre Of
its people.
A part of old England was trans
planted across the wide Atlantic, its
laws and standards set up in rich,
new land. Through hardships, wars
and trials, those principles took on
new growth, the virgin soil added
new strength and new meaning.
They blossomed in George Wash
ington's wisdom and talent, in the
magic of Thomas Jefferson's pen,
in the rousing voice of Patrick Hen
~, and in the genius and under
standing of Robert E. Lee.
At jamestown, the first perma-
nent English settlement in America
was made in 1907. At Yorktown in
1871 the American Revolution end
ed with the surrender of CORVALLIS
and the British army. Williams
burg, settled in 1882, is said to be
the oldest incorporated town in
America, and was the capital of
Virginia from 1899 to 1850. The
Commonwealth was the scene of
many campaigns in the Civil war
which closed with the surrender of
Lees army, April, 1865, at Appomat-
tox court house near Lynchburg.
The Commonwealth of Virginia
was named for Elizabeth, England's
virgin queen. Heaven and earth
never agreed better to frame place
for a mans habitation," Capt. John
Smith declared. It was he who
claimed this new land for his queen.
Virginia's territory once included
Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and West Vir-
ginia. When Charles II was
crowned he wore a robe Of Virginia
silk, and had engraved on coins that
the English kingdom should consist
of England, Scotland, Ireland and
Virginia."
Virginia has been the birthplace
Of eight Presidents, including Har-
rison, Taylor and Wilson, who were
elected from other states. George
Washington, Thomas Jefferson,
James Madison, James Monroe and
John Tyler were residents of Vir-
ginia when they took Office. The
names of other Virginians, howev-
er, sprinkle the pages of history,
literature, art and science. Includ-
ed among them are Princess Poca-
hontas, George Rogers Clark, Meri-
wether Lewis, John Randolph, John
Marshall, Stonewa1 Jackson, Hen
~ Clay. But the list of Virginia's
great is too long to name here!

Admiral Cassidy was to receive

The Communist newspaper Rizo-

100000 Lbs. Of Meat
Guarded by 0pA 10
Avert Illegal Sale
BY The Assoeiosed Press

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 6.-Ofice
of Price Administration agents kept
a close watch today on at least
100000 pounds of meat they un-
covered in four storage plants at q
time when hundreds of butchers
were unable to obtain supplies.
An OPA spokesman said go agents
had been assigned to maintain "a
hour watch in an effort to keep the
meat from finding its way into illegal
channels when meat ceilings are re-
stored next Monday.
In addition to the meat located
yesterday, the spokesman said AT
least Is other cold storage places In
operation here have equally large
stocks on hand"
Plenty in Cold Storage.
There is more meat in Phila-
delphia than meets the eye" he
added. "The shelves of retail dealers
and wholesalers are empty. but
hundreds of thousands of pounds
are stored in cold storage lockers. ~
Most of this meat, the spokesman
said, was purchased when price CELL
tngs were not in effect.
TT could be sold now without price
ceilings" the OPA spokesman said
but is instead being stored away for
future sale The inference is that
there is an intention to sell through
illegal channels at over = ceiling
prices"
But the OPA said it intends to
curb any desire the owners of the
meat may have along that line.
We intend to learn the owner
ship of every pound of this boarded
meat" the spokesman said. I'VE
will maintain our watch until it is
sold, and unless it is sold at ceiling
prices and with proper business
procedures, there will be prompt
charges and arrests.
Owners Not Identified.
None of the owners of the meat
which included beef, ham and other
pork cuts-were identified.
Meanwhile, 180 members of the
Eastern Pennsylvania Slaughterers'
Association were shut down because
of lack of livestock. The association
said it expects the rest of its 497
members in nine Southeastern
Pennsylvania counties to shut down
early next week until more livestock
is made available to slaughterers by
producers who have been refusing
to sell at present ceiling prices.
John j. Felin & Co., one of the
East's largest pork packers, an
nounced that it will close down to-
day following its early morning de-
hveries Six hundred of the firms
700 employees will be laid of, George
A. Casey, president of the company
said, until such time as livestock

During the war the working day
in Russia was II hours. From 1917
to 1928 the general practice was q
six-day work week with one day
allotted for rest and recreation.
Between 1929 and 1910, the report
explains, there was a general at
tempt to achieve uninterrupted pro-
duction by a working period of five
days with workmen allotted rest
days on every sixth day." The
working day was seven hours. The
six-day work week with day Of
rest on Sundays, and an eight-hour
day, were restored In 1910, prior to
the Russian entry into the war.
The report adds that more than
two-thirds of the Soviet population
at that time was rural and not
affected by the allotment of rest
periods for urban workers.
The report describes group or
CARNATIONS for leisure, including
workmen's clubs, mass activities,
"circles" devoted to politics, trade
union matters and cultural, recrea-
tional or athletic pursuits. There
are no professional athletes in
Russia except in the circus" In
terest and participation in numer-
Gus forms of athletics is almost uni
versal among young men, and many
girls and women. Soccer Is the
most popular game. There is no
baseball, football or polo.
