ALL FOR The CHURCH
The Church is the greatest factor
on earth for the building Of char

a. storchouse Of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can sur
vive. There are four sound reasons
why every person should attend
services regularly and support the
Church. They are: CD For his
own sake. (2) For his chldren's
sake. ~ For the sake Of his COM
munity and nation. ~ For the
sake Of the Church itself, which

Tribute Paid
r. B. Rans61,

The following resolution was
adopted ~ the Advisnrv nnars
Of the Peoples National Bank Of
Central Virginia. at . useetino
held In Dillwyn OH Octooer 5.
1862.
Whereas our Heavenly. Father
on August 20. 1862. called our
good friend and fellow member,
Mr.. Radford B. Ransom. from
his earthly tolls to his Heavenly
abode.
Therefore be it resolved that
each member Of this Board feels
keenly this loss, not only as a
personal friend, but as an as
sociate on the Board for many
years. His wise council and
companionship win be greatly
missed. He always stood true to
his horhst convictions. And
Be it further resolved that we
bow in humble submission to the
will Of Him who doeth all
things well and we hereby ex-
tend to his bereaved family our
sincere sympathy in this time
Of sorrow. And
Be it further resolved that a
copy of this resolution be
spread upon the minutes of this
Board, a copy published in the
Farmville Herald and a copy
sent to his daughter. Mrs. j. M.
Burroughs.

real estate owners. Further
more, the locations secured by
the early supermarket chains
have become very valuable and.
in a way, make them a mo-
nopoly in the industry. It is diff
flcuN for new supernnarket
coming to a city to secure a de-
cent location.
Importance of Discount Houses
The fact that many super
markets are awakening to the
importance of discount houses"
makes me believe that the stock
quotations for the supermarkets
will go higher. Many of these
supermarketS are erecting the
buildings for these coun t
houses directly adjoining their
own operations. While the
growth of super1markets has a
very definite relation to popula-
ton. it is possible that some of
those located in areas of stag
nant population might be able
at least for a time-tO offset
this handicap by attaching to
themselves discount house
Otherwise. the supermarkets in
Stagnant populations will be
licked!
As one who believes in tn
"cycle theory" 1 am interested
to note how every community
started with its general store"
which included everything from
the cracker barrel to the post
office! Then the general lines of
i n d u try became distributed
amongst a large number of
small local stores. Now the cycle
Is coming back to the general
store idea which was 90 COM
mon in every community one
hundred years ago. This makes
me again bullish on the stocks
Of supermarket chains.

What causes common. at this
particular time is the report
have which deals with a partic-
ularly bestial sex crime. the
murder of a l2-year-o.d girl.
This Child was attacked in
one Of the structures that go to
make up the Housing Authority
complex. Her assallant, as a
parting gesture. stabbed her
once in the throat and twice in
the stomach, and left her dead
on the kitchen floor.
Who did it?
Who knows? The little girl ar

This project is a terrible

Senator Byrd's Warming

\ENATOR Harry F. Byrd, chairman
OF the Senate Finance Committee,
has been warning the nation against
reckless spending and budget deficits
for SO long that his latest warning is
likely to sound like the same old re-
frain.
But 1t is warning that could he the
last before serious financial trouble
if it is not needed by the Kennedy Adj
minlstration. Everyone must know by
now that in his first year, President
John Kennedy ran up one of the larg-
est peacetime deficits in U. S. history
over six billions.
The current year promises to be an
other year of deficit spending. Mean
while, the drain on the dollar, while
being slowed in recent months, contin-
ues, and if it cannot be halted the dol
lar may be in for confidence crisis
winch Will force drastic action to halt
the outflow of gold from the United
States
Senator Byrd predicts that the cur
rent years deficit will be at least five
billions. That will mean the first two
years under Kennedy have meant a
total deficit of between eleven and
twelve billion dollars!
The disturbing thing about the pre-
sent situation is that the President has

Democratic forces of United
States Senator Harry Floo d
Byrd. which generally prevail in
Old Dominion politics. are con-
siderably to the right Of the
party norm nationally. and the
majority of the people of this
state seem to like it that way.
Nothing has happened in recent
months to change this situation.
There are exceptions, Of
course, but struggles for pwoer
in Virginia are usually between
the conservatives and the more
conservatives. Since the present
national administration is admit
teddy in neither Of those camps,
Mr.. Kennedy continues as some
thing less than a hero to a ma
jOrity of Virginians, just as was
the case on presidential election
day two years ago.
There has been one significant
shift in Virginia's political
winds. The school segregation
issue has drifted into the back
ground. Desegregation, on a
limited scale, has been accepted
reluctantly but without incident
in 30 localities. In nearly all ur-
ban areas and in many rural
areas no serious thought seems
to be given to any possibility Of
hating the gradual increase in
racial mixing in the classrcoms

ton is entirely different, how

Yet, in the past seventeen years, we
have backed down, time and again. in
the face of Communist probing, and
testing, being too hesitant to make a
proper use of this power.
Thus, with the power, we must be
willing to commit it, as the Communist
are, if we are to protect the free world
and save our system.
This may sometimes cost lives and
may bring us to the brink But so long
as we have the greatest military power
in the world, the Communists will not
risk about war, and if they are aware
that we are willing to use our power,
in showdown, they will avoid the
showdown.
1t is still not too late for the Ken
nedy Administration to right our posi-
ton and lead from a policy of strength
and the will to use that power proper
ly. But so far in fact ever since World
War ii, we have lacked the resolution
to use our great power and this has
cost us and the free world dearly.

Babson Discusses Supermarkets

BABSON PARK, MASS. Oct
Is : Many newspaper publish
ers have noticed recently that
supernarkets are cutting down
their advertising. Naturally this
is of interest to readers of this
column who depend on super
market advertising to check the
prices of their products one
with another. Let me discuss
this week the possible reasons
for this reduction in advertising
by some of the supermarket
chains.
Cost Of Trading Stamps
When only a few stores used
trading stamps mostly S 4 H,
tie distribution of stamps was
reasonable. These Stamps, used
in limited amounts, were doubt
less appreciated by many who
were buying goods. Not only
were the amounts then used
very limited, but the stamps
were often thrown away by buy
ers. Today the situation n a S
changed greatly. Not only are
most of the supermarkets and
similar establishments using
trading stamps, but they are
competing with one another in
the number of stamps they give
for the purchase Of certain
items.
Furthermore. many of the
large chains are printing their
own stamps and operating their
own centers for redeeming the
stamps. Altogether this is be-
coming quite expensive and I
fear TIE cost Is being CHARGED
to 0eneral advertising. The final
result win depend ON whether
tie owners Of the supermarkets
st more customers through
trading Stamps Or through i'd
verttang. From studies I have
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1962-10-16

made. it is evident to me that
business derived from trading
stamps has about reached its
maximum. I believe that tn e
better supermarkets are return
ing to increased newspaper ad-
vertising, and are curtailing so
far as possible the competitive
use of stamps.
"Overpr0ducti0n"
Many who invested earlier in
the stocks of new supermarkets
have made a great deal of
money. A number of these stocks
sell at several times their origi-
nal cost. The rapid rise in super
markets was due primarily to
bulk purchasing and modern
merchandising. It did not take
long for them to wipe out the
old grocery stores. meat mar
kets. and similar competitors.
Many of the small stores COM
bined at first into cooperative
organizations to meet the new
competition. Some of these CO.
operatives have survived a n d
others have been disbanded or
bought by Supermarkets.
The automobile has been a
big help; the supermarkets saw
at once the importance of pro-
viding sufficient parking space
for their customers. This caus-
ed many of them to leave the
center Of the city, but the Gus
toners did not object because
practically all Of them came in
automobiles. The supermarkets
also provided carts" for the
customers to push around and
I'LL up and then provided boys
to take the packages out Of the
carts to the customers automo-
biles! The policy At the super
markets in purchasing big park
ing lots has made them large

asked for more money for countless
programs. Congress, with a more sober
eye on fiscal reality, has refused to
appropriate it.
Senator Byrd says this is the most
serious crisis we face as a nation to-
day. In the past he has been right far
more often than he has been wrong
His comment helps focus the issue in
this coming congressional election M
whether they should elect members of
Congress who will favor more spending
or more financial responsibility in gov
eminent.
Thus the November elections ar, mo-
mentous for the nation and every Amer
lean.
Just to get and idea of relative i'm
portance, can you tell us who won the
penants in 1861?
Who can remember when the tax
payer had nothing to pay but small
tax on his property?

form of taxation there will ALWAYS he

Power Potential

HANSON w. Baldwin, military editor
II of the New York Times, has recent
ly completed book on World War |,
what it meant and what it was all about
and what really happened in that great
war. He says our failure in the face of
Communist aggression in recent years
is not due to a lack of United States
military power but due to the lack Of
the will to use that power
This sounds simple to begin with but
let US take look at just what he is
saying, specifically. for it is of vital i'm
portance to every American. He is say
ing our diplomats and our leaders in
Washington have been too hesitant to
employ our military power at the pro-
per place.
Baldwin believes that, all in all, there
is no question but that the United States
today is the most powerful military
nation on the face of the earth. More
over, he thinks this has been true for a
long time-ever since the end of World
War II.
