New Zest for Home Sweet Home
By VIVIAN BROWN
AP NewsfeotuFes Writer

Winter is the time to face
realities about your home, If
boredom has set in. The man
of the house should have
given up the idea Of buying
a barn and turning it into a
ranch house, and the Coop
erative lady of the house
should revised her ideas
about turning a ranch house
into a barn.
Summer in its bucolic love-
illness does strange things to
the sanest homemakers.
Instead Of seeking the rain
bow in rural pastoral scenes,
its a good time to improve
that place where you hang
your Home Sweet Home
sign. a place that was prob
ably chosen for practical rea-
sons, with or without woods,
fields, lawns or groves.
A house may be refurbished
in many ways to add zest.
A new entrance can liven
up a dreary or badly planned
spot.

Liars Club Stamps Champion Title on Non-Windy Texan

BURLINGTON, Wis, R-When a Texan says Texas hasn't got the biggest of everything, it's bound to be a lie.
 We'll, podner, there's a fellow named w.. c. Cook in Wichita Falls who fibbed so well about what he says is Lone Star short coming that he's done himself and his state mighty proud. Cook today was named world champion liar for 1859 by the famed Bur- lington Liars Club.
 Cook topped this years moun- tain of mendacity with a story pinned on - of all things - lack of wind.
 Here's the lie he submitted to the club in it's annual contest:
 "You have heard of big winds. We'll, last summer we had so litle wind down here and I had to take down two of the three windmills on my ranch to get enough wind to operate the other one. And if I hadn't taken down the wire fences that were obstructing the wind, that wouldn't have worked" :" Honorable t???) Mention!
 When the club awards an hon. orabe mention it may be stretch ing the term bit. Nevertheless, the organization saw fit to pin that doubtful honor on three other tall tales, including one that proves the Arctic Circle has a dizzying influence.
 About the only crop we can't raise in Manitoba is sunflowers, :" R. T. Mccullough of Winnipeg wrote. Being so far north, we enjoy the midnight sun = and sunflowers, following the sun around, twist their heads off"

The 1950s, time of technical triumphs, draw to a close tonight, and the world embarks on a new decade, on the edge of a strange new frontier.
 At midnight, men and women around the world will greet the dawning Sixties.
 And as the eras shift, mankind had begun a different kind of struggle to reach the stars - no longer in spirit alone, but by phys ical prowess.
 This was the challenging, still unfamiliar horizon of the new decade, born of period of un- precedented mechanical advances - of rockets, satellites, automa- ton and of computers that out raced the human mind.
 But age-old problems, of peace and decency, still remained, and these, too, marked the occasional legacies of the past and respon- abilities of the futures.
 As the church bells and party goers sound forth in celebration, there will be prayers and hopes that the time ahead will bring solutions. And signs, both for op- timism and anxiety, were in view.
 In international relations moves were afoot to ease tensions.

Dominican Republic Consul Confesses to Arms Smuggling in Miami

WASHINGTON R - The State Department said today it has asked the Dominican Republic to recall it's consul general in Miami, Fla, for trying to smuggle arms out of the United States to his country.
 The department said Augusta Maria Fernando pleaded guilty December II to an indictment charging conspiracy to export arms illegally and trying to bribe a U. s. customs officer. He was sentenced in Miami to five years but was put on probation. This means Fernando will not go to jail as long as he is in the United States, unless he violates the pro- visions of the probation.

Wisconsin Senator Says Humphrey Welcome, But Won't Run UnOpposed

Army Will Blast
 Dangerous Snow Ledges on Kenai

ANCHORAGE, R = The Army has been called upon to combat winter hazards caused by alter nate snow and rain at the Port of Whittier and dangerous snow lodges in the Girdwood area southwest of here.
 A detachment of 100 men and three officers went to Whittier yesterday to help the community dig out from alternate layers of heavy snow and ice.
 Snowfall totaling 108.5 inches, mingled with rains, have created a snow removal problem on roof tops. The problem has been ag- gravated because seasonal winds, which usually whip snow from roofs, have been lacking this year.
 Another Army group left for the Girdwood area, between here and Seward, to dislodge heavy snow ledges with gunfire. They carried 105 nm. and 75 nm. how itzers and 100 rounds of ammu- nition
 In another part sof the Kenai Peninsula motorists reporte moose were begging down in snow along the Portage Pass sec ton of the highway But game management officials made an aerial check and found the moose apparently were getting along nicely.

over a large number of stations of the Fish and Wildlife Service.
 It was indicated that Seaton, who was empowered to delegate his authority to subordinates in the Fish and Wildlife Service, will make some of the transfers as of January 1, but the White House did not issue any list of these items.
 The state has been carrying out some of the functions under con- tracts which provide that Alaska takes over certain duties under federal supervision as rapidly as the state has been able to provide staffs.
 Alaska has been represented in conferences preparatory to issu- ance of regulations, and federal files have been turned over for their use.
 The White House gave assur- ance that these and other meas ures would permit the transfer of functions without any lapse in the performance of essential duties.

Governor Reveals New Application for Federal Help in Paying ESC Benefits

JUNEAU, R -- The State of Alaska today applied for another one-half-million- n-dollar fe l loan Wednesday to provide addi- tional financing for its ailing job less insurance program.

 The Governor said the state had available, as of last September 30th, about 21s million dollars for payment of benefits under the unemployment compensation ben eft program. Egan said present expectations were that the state fund, without new federal loan, would have been exhausted by next April.

Nixon, Mitchell Try Mediation in Steel Dispute

NEW YORK, R = Vice Presi- dent Richard Nixon said today he and Secretary of Labor James Mitchell have met with leaders on both sides in the steel dispute but that no agreement had been reached between the parties.
 "As for the prospects of a settlement, I cannot anticipate at this time what the outcome will be-" Nixon said.
 Nixon said the last meetings were held in Washington Wednes- day.
 Asked whether he is reporting to the President on the situation, Nixon replied: "The President is, of course, always kept informed on meetings in which members of the cabinet participated

 He said federal officials sug- gested immediate application be- cause pending loan application from another state would take all money presently available in the government loan program.
 In his letter of application to Secretary of Labor Mitchell, Egan noted that since October of 1858, Alaska had paid nearly 61a mil lion dollars in benefits under the jobless insurance program.

End of Fabulous Fifties Marks New
 Era in Our Emergence from Drudgery
Other Bright Notes

~@@ASA 0AA9AAA ANO4C0
 There were other bright notes, too. Prosperity abounded, and lei sure increased. Material comforts surpassed those of any civilization that ever existed, and religious institutions flourished.
 Wider distribution of modern medicine saved and extended lives until overpopulation loomed as a problem. Streamlined agri- culture piled up billions of dol lars worth of American surpluses, but children starved in the Far East.
 Men travelled by jet faster than ever, but saw less as they travelled.
 Seeking to perfect the ultimate weapon, the world discovered it was contaminating the air even in peace. And so it has paused in it's testing - uneasy, suspicious and uncertain about whether to continue.
 All this was part of the out look, as men faced the new decade, and looked back on the old one. To many, it was simply an occa- sion for fun and frivolity. But to others, it was time for weighing prospects, and reflecting on passing era, the changes made, the strides taken, the tasks un- done.

 Some time will be required for orderly determination of the items to be transferred The properties range from equipment for one- man field camps to complete fa- cilities for the control and repair of aircraft. The items are spread
