WASHINGTON, (JTA) =
Chairman Emanuel Celler of
the House judiciary committee
has asked Secretary of State
Acheson to cut off financial
aid to Iraq because of the bar
barism practiced against Jews
in that country.
Celler pointed out that the
U. S. Export-Import Bank had
allocated credits to Iraq in the
amount of $12,O00,000 and
suggested that, if this credit
has not been completely drawn,
any balance should be can
celled. He said the annulment
of the anti-Jewish DEGREES
should be the prerequisite for
the resumption of American
financial aid to Iraq.

Spider Webs Are
Transformed To
.SHpery Threads

AS you decorate your Christmas
tree, have you ever wondered why
you put lights and tinsel on it? Two
beautiful legends give us the an
swers.
Many years ago, there lived
good woman who had a large fam
ily She was Immediately clean
about the house and everything she
did was spic- -and-span. One Christ
mas Eve she prepared a tree for
the children and trimmed it with
all sorts of things but, during the
night, spiders visited the tree and
crawled from branch to branch
leaving their webs behind them.
The Christ Child saw this and
knew that the good woman, so
clean about her house, would feel
very badly when she found the
tree covered with cobwebs. To re-
ward her for the goodness she did
TO others, He blessed the Christ
mas tree and all the spider webs
were transformed into silver.
In the morning, lC and behold,
the good woman and her children
agreed they had never seen such
a beautiful tree before, resplendent
with threads of silver. And that
they say, is why we put tinsel on
our Christmas trees.
Another legend tells us the orr
gin of Christmas tree candles, the
forerunners of tree lights.
Long, long ago man was lost in
a great woods. For days he wander
/ through the woods and over the
meadows but he always found him
self back at the place from which
he started. AT last when he was
SO worn out that he thought he
must die, night came on-0ne OF
those beautiful blue nights when
the heavens were filled with bright
stars. BY the light of the stars, he
found the pathway which he had
lost. When he reached his home, he
learned it was Christmas Eve. The
light of the Christmas stars had
brought him back to his wife and
children. So, in thanksgiving, he
went into the woods again and cut
down a small tree. He covered it
with little lighted candles which.
like the stars in the Christmas sky,
burned to honor the birthday of
the Christ Child.

down as far as they would go.
ITS really dreadful, the egoism
of mothers" lamented Hella. IF
you've been sitting all cramped up
in an office all week, naturally
you've simply got to have some
sunlight some time! / gave Nom
more presents this Christmas than
ever before really, more than
| could afford! and besides,
/ left theatre ticket for her to
use. / really couldn't have done
any more"
Everybody agreed with Hella.
Now, let's forget all this truck
about the sentimentality of moth
ers," Wolfgang advised, laughing.
And forget it they did as spirits
rose higher and higher during the
remainder of the train trip and
the subsequent climb to the noun
tain lodge where they we're to
spend Christmas. The festive mood
increased as they entered the
lodge, saw the roaring fire on
the hearth, and graSped the sturdy
and welcoming hand of the host.
Marianne went up to her room
but was down again in no time.
Let's get to the top of the noun
tain this afternoon" she called
to her companions. "Who knows
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1951-12-21

what the weather may be like to-
morrow Besides, the view must
be just simply superb right nowl"
The visw was superb, the sun
greaming against the distant blue
haze. And the climb through the
snow was exhilarating; but after
while it began to be strenuous,
making itself felt in knees and
muscles and nerves. At every
bend in the trail the climbers
longed to see the peak they
must get back TO the lodge before
nightfall. Each would have liked
to suggest turning back, but all
were reluctant to say the word;
and so they plodded on, becoming
more silent with every passing
moment; until no one was saying
a word, no one laughed, and GER
tainly no one had the urge to re-
sumo the singing with which their
adventure had begun.
Finally, the blush, glacial peak
suddenly loomed into view ;.
but it was still a long way off.
This will mean at least an
other hour" Hella said. The
Others agreed, as they took mental
note of the perilous, strenuous
climb that still lay ahead.
Wolfgang took out his field
glasses to size up the situation.
Suddenly, just as he go; them in
to focus. he almost dropped the

glasses. What the ?" he ex
claimed Was he having hallucina-
tions? High on the peak he dis
tinctly saw a Christmas tree, light
ed with white candles, and around
the tree he seemed to see gifts
no. not gifts !. j, flowers!
The glasses were quickly passed
from hand to hand Each gazer
verified Wolfgang'S findings. But
there was one thing they could
not figure out: who on earth
could have gotten the tree up
there? And how could ne have
lit the candles? Surely it was mol
their host-he was sturdy but
rather aged for such a climb; be-
sides, he did not give one such
poetic impression! 1t would have
been more practical, and much
more in keeping with his type,
to have set up the tree in front
of his lodge.
Meanwhile, it was getting later
and later; so they had to turn
and leave the mystery unsolyed,
contenting themselves with con-
lectures as they made thei way
down the mountain. But hardly
had they reached the lodge before
they began plying the host with
questions.
Cautiously the innkeeper looked
from right to left before answer
ing. Hesitantly he explained: Last
spring young skier had met his
death up there-buried under a
sudden avalanche of snow. Not
even the spring thaws had reveal
ed the body. But, only yesterday,
the boys mother had made her
way up-yes, with the tree and
the candles
The host stopped speaking, alb
ruptly, and looked towards the
door. The others turned and saw.
