TOPEKA, Kansas — A new
strain of hybrid corn producing
three or four extra ears of corn
to each stalk has been announced
by the Crow Hybrid Corn Com
pany, It is claimed that this new
variety will not only produce 20
to 25 per cent more corn, but that
it is also more nutritional to live
stock. It also dries faster in the
field, making it easier to harvest.
At this glad time of the year
when we remember the birth of
the Saviour who came here for
us, may each one receive the best
gift He offers . . . life . . . even
“eternal life”. When we think of
the gift the Lord has given men
in discovering more life even in
plants; we know that in these
momentous times He would long
to have men come and bow down
before the Prince of Peace. “O
Come, Let Us Adore Him” . . . .

Alaska Airlines Proposes
Lower Family Fare Rates
Alaska Airlines has filed a new
low family fare for air travel be
tween Seattle or Portland and
Fairbanks or Anchorage to become
effective Jan. 1.
According to President and
General Manager Charles F. Wil
lis, Jr., Alaska Airlines family fare
plan will permit families to fly at
a reduced rate when they travel
together. When one member of
the family pays full fare, other
fnembers of the immediate family
over 12 years or age pay only two
thirds of the usual tariff. Chil
dren under 12 are charged half
fare and those under 2 ride free
as always. The plan is applicable
only to members of the immediate
family, that is, parents and chil
dren.
The plan will be in force, Willis
said, from Jan. 1, to April 30.
The new rate has been filed
with the Civil Aeronautics Board
for approval.
Kennedy States Johnson
Will Help to Improve
U. S. - Latin Relations
WASHINGTON Wl — President
elect Kennedy is reported con
sidering designating the incoming
vice president as a trouble shoot
er to improve U.S.-Latin Ameri
can relations.
This may be one of the outside
assignments Kennedy indicated
during the presidential campaign
he had in mind for Sen. Lyndon
Johnson of Texas.
Any designation of the only
other nationally elected official of
the government to deal with the
problems of hemisphere countries
—including Prime Minister Fidel
Castro’s Cuba—would emphasize
the importance Kennedy places on
re-establishing good neighbor
policies with republics of the
south.
Shortly after the election, Ken
nedy predicted that Johnson, the
retiring Senate Majority Leader,
would become the most effective
vice president in modern times.
He indicated he would ask John
son to take on even more duties
than President Eisenhower as
signed to Vice President Nixon.
As the Senate’s Majority Leader
and as a Texan, Johnson has taken
pains to establish warm relations
with President Adolfo Lopez
Mateos of Mexico.

Cash Gifts to be Sent
To Former Tenants
HEMPSTEAD. N. Y. (/PI — A
Long Island landlord is sending
cash Christmas presents this year
to 1.200 present and former ten
ants, all of them servicemen.
The checks range from $10 to
$220, depending on the length of
residence and the rental paid at
Michel Manor, a government
sponsored housing project near
Mitchel Air Force Base.
Alexander Muss & Sons. Inc.,
which announced the rebates Wed
nesday, explained that they repre
sent $124,674 in tax refunds. Nas
sau County and Hempstead Town
had collected too much money in
taxes between 1958 and this year,
and returned the money to the
company.
Alexander Muss explained that
he felt it was only right that the
tenants should get the money. He
said he hopes to get the checks
to everyone by Christmas day.
Many of the recipients have been
transferred to bases in remote
parts of the world.

Many Fans Attend
Durante - Little Wedding
NEW YORK UP) — Jimmy Du
rante married pretty Margie Little
Wednesday. The ceremony went
off quietly, as planned, but the
couple didn’t expect the mob
scene which followed.
Jimmy, 67, has been going
around with Margie since 1944,
when he was a widower of a
year and she, 23, a show girl. They
were wed at St. Malachy’s Roman
Catholic Church—the “Actor’s
Chapel” on 49th Street just off
Broadway.
Jimmy didn’t bargain on his
fans when he looked forward to
a nice, quiet affair. The fans—
plainly dressed, off-Broadway
types—jammed into St. Malachy’s
Church. For the most part they
sat there quietly.
But after the ceremony the
fans made a quiet, determined
mass of humanity when Jimmy
and his bride—Jimmy grinning
for the first time since long be
fore the nuptials—tried to get out
of the church.
