WATERFORD. Va, Oct. A.
This quaint Northern Virginia vii
lage took on an Early American
atmosphere today as hundreds of
visitors crowded through its mar
row streets to see the ninth an
nual exhibition of handicrafts
staged by the Waterford Founda-
tion.'
Early American arts and crafts
could be seen at every turn. Near
the Red Barn a blacksmith had
set up his smithy on a plot of
grass, and in the tin shop nearby
a potter's wheel was whirling out
pots from native clay.
Further down the street a group
Of Loudoun County women were
making apple butter by a Colonial
recipe. Smoke from the wood fire
used to heat the copper kettle
blended with the crisp fall air to
settle a scent of nostalgia over the
village.
At the Old Mill were demon
STATIONS of rug making and lamp
shade construction. Two floors of
the mill were crammed with
examples of the work of local
craftsmen.
There also was a weaving DEM
onstration, with craftsmen show
ing how our forefathers made the
cloth that went in to covers and
home-spun clothing.
More Exhibits This Year.
Mrs. Mary E. Stabler. chairman
OF the craft exhibits, said the
foundations show this year topped
any other exhibit. She said a
greater number of craftsmen
showed this year than ever before.
The foundation, a non-profit
organization, was founded to in
spire interest in early American
crafts. In addition to its annual
exhibits, it sponsores classes so
that local people may learn the
home arts of long ago.

0nSeryicemen's
Taxes Refused
Defense Department
Refuses to Help in
Collection Effort

The Defense Department has
refused to cooperate with an Arl-
lngton attempt to increase collec-
lion of taxes from servicemen and
their wives living in the county.
A letter from the Assistant Sec
rotary Of Defense read to the Arl-
lngton County Board yesterday
said that the department docs
not accede" to a request to inform
of their tax liability
Departments Contention.
The department contended that
the Soldiers and Sailors Civil Re-
lief Act Of 1910 provides that mil
itary personnel on duty away from
their homes are not liable to pay
ment Of personal property taxes.
Arlington County Commissioner
Of Revenue George d. Fischer
agrees with the basic exemption of
servicemen from the tax. He con-
tends, however, that under GER
tain circumstances the tax must
be paid.
The board voted yesterday to
have Mr.. Fischer consider the de-
partment's reply and make any
necessary recommendation.
Request for Circulars.
The commissioner had asked
that circulars be distributed to
convey this information:
All persons living in Virginia are
to file a tax return,
whether they are exempt or not.
To obtain exemption under the
Civil Relief Act, military personnel
must exhibit proof that the per-
sonal property tax has been paid
in the place Of permanent domi-
cile.
The exemption does not apply
to the wives Of military personnel.
Autos owned by servicemen and
titled in Virginia are subject to
the Virginia personal property tax,
even though the owner claims
permanent domicile in another
State.
Short Term Loan Policy.
In other business, the board
asked its Fiscal Affairs Committee
to study the county's policy of
making Short-term loans to meet
expenses before tax receipts come
in. Board Chairman Alfred E.
Frisbie said a crisis resulted last
week when a law suit threatened
to prevent payment of teachers
salaries. -.
A pay raise was approved for
county employees. Total cost OF
the increase for the current fiscal
year will be approximately
1888. 900. ............
Most workers will receive q
raise Of about $3.50. Most hourly
paid employees will receive a boost
of 5 cents an hour. The $4,000
a-year salary Of County Manager
A. T. Lundberg was increased to
$4,000.
Approved with the pay increase
was a new classification plan. In
cluded in the plan are the Board
Clerk, with a salary scale Of from
SIS, 200 to $6.700. and the Central
Registrar. $4,000 to $500.
The board appropriated $44. 900
for street widening in connection
with installation of seven sidewalk
projects. Property owners in the
areas involved have agreed to
meet the cost Of sidewalks, curbs
and cutters.
