Moves Pushed
On ; Fronts
BY WALTER BREEDE, JR.
Associated Press business Writer


NEW YORK, Mar. 8.-The
forces of recession were under
attack on three broad fronts
this week.
Federal Reserve authorities
gave the reserve banks the go
ahead to trim discount rates
another notch. This is the
interest charged on loans to
commercial banks.
The aim: To help business by
making it cheaper for you to
borrow money. whether you
need it for your own business
or for buying consumer goods.
Other battle strategy taking
shape was aimed at unemploy-
ment, which rose to a 16-year
high Of $500. 900 last month.
The Senate cleared the decks
for fast action on an emergency
aid-to-housing program. The
measure would reduce down
payments on homes financed
with Government insure d
mortgages. 1t would make CT
mortgages more attractive to
banks. 1t would provide a ST.
850, 100000 kitty which the
Government could use for buy
ing mortgages that banks and
other lending institutions might
not want.
Another job-creating meas
ure calls for appropriation of
extra funds for the Federal
highway program.
These and other pump-prim-
ing efforts cheered Wall Street
this week.

The elder. Corr had manu-
featured and repaired bicycles
there since 1880.

But in 1887 times we're tough,

II started from absolute
scratch" he said.
Model Kits Stocked
A few years later, a salesman
dropped by with an armload of
model kits. Mr.. Corr thought
he would try some, laid in a
supply. and put an assembled
model in the window. He was
surprised at the attention ii
drew.

model builder was of a certain
type" he said. 1T was

Soon, Mr.. Corr was out of the
bicycle business and into the
hobby supply business.

Turning Point
The business prospered. but
the real turning point came
during World War; II. when
the Red Cross officials asked to

heaviest load was in 1856. when
he first began carrying the mail.
A new missionary had more
than 5000 pounds of parcel
post sent to him at Savoonga.
Chester and the dogs had to
cart it in December weather.
1t took more than one trip.

From June through October,
Chester carries the mail over

Baby Shoes Find A Home On U. of Alaska Campus

Baby shoes for freshmen women are not a part of the suggested wardrobe at the University of Alaska, but a newcomer arrived last week with a pair in hand - and she had a letter from the president telling her to bring the shoes when she came to enroll
 It all started Is years ago this week, when Diane DeWree, an entering freshman in biological sciences, was born in Fairbanks. Her father, Frank P. DeWree, 1928 business administration grad uate, was treasurer of the Uni versity. The president at that time, pr. Charles E. Bunnell, sent Diane a baby gift and with it the following letter:
 Dear Diane:
 'sThese are intended to be your first shoes. I hope you like them. Much is to happen dur ing the next eighteen years, but when you come to enroll at the University of Alaska, bring these shoes with you. There will be a special place for them"
 Everything happened much ac- cording to the letter. Diane wore the shoes as her first baby shoes; she enrolled at the University on Monday and turned IS on Tues day, the 18th; she had the shoes and letter with her, and Dr. Err nest N. Patty, president, said there would definitely be a spe- cial place for them.
 With Diane's consent, h e shoes will be bronzed and placed with the letter in the presidents office or Wickersham Hall, Wo- mems residence where Diane is staying.
