Aviv this year, Hilton has one
under construction. Now, the
government supports the build
ing of popular-price motels and
youth hoStels to attract lower
income, younger tourists.
A basic appeal is the exhil-
aration of being in a land of
thousands of years of history.
Only a short drive from Tel
Aviv the Amphitheatre of Gaze
sarea, first built in 10 BIC. by
Herod the Great, is being re-
constructed; few weeks ago,
Pablo CaSalS gave a concert

and civilizations that existed
1000 or 5000 years ago.
"Tourism is among your top
dollar earners now. Will it be

GIN Net Dips;
ChrysIer Due
To Show Loss

DETROIT, Oct. Is CAP).-
General Motors made less
money in the third quarter this
year than last and today Chrys-
Ter will announce a loss for the
July-September period.
The ChrySler report will come
following the close of the New
York Stock Exchange. Last
year Chrysler earned STA mil
lion in the third quarter, its
first profit for the period since
1857.
The General Motors report,
made last night, showed a net
profit of $87,811,756 for the
quarter, compared with S89,-
1894 for the similar period
of 1860. The corporation said
quarterly earnings per share of
common stock were 80 cents in
both years.
The company said it earned
$528 million in the first nine
months of this year against
$70l million in the similar
period of 1860. Sales dropped
from 1881 billion last year to
$7.78 billion this year.
Chairman Frederic G.. DON
ner and President John F. Cor
don said much of the difference
between the two years stemmed
from record production during
early 1860 to make up for out
put lost during the 1859 steel
strike and lower sales in the
third quarter of this year
brought about by a United
Auto Workers Union strike
which shut off production for
10 days.
They said the local strikes
in September resulted in a
loss in production in the United
States and Canada of over
10000 vehicles, of which more
than 100000 are expected to be
recovered during the balance of
1861"
Third quarter sales of 444,-
600 units included 10000 new
1862 models, the executives
said.
Mr.. Bonner and Mr.. Gordon
said that during the 1861

cleanup the cemetery for Memoir

have planned a meeting at the
home of Harriet McKinstry, sec

The cemetery association is
striving to make the cemetery
something that Sidney residents
can be proud of and for that rea-
son they are asking for some help
in cleaning up the cemetery for
Memorial Day. 1t is nothing that
anyone has to do but it would be
greatly appreciated if some folks
would attend this meeting and
lend a little help toward this
purpose.
1t is a rather big undertaking
for a few of us, bat with respect
to the pioneers that have passed
on and with the help of some who
appreciate what those pioneers
have done for this area we make
our appeal to them for help, and
the job will not be SO big, the

of sugar beets and is in accord
with terms of the sugar beet con-
tract, whereby growers receive adj
ditional payments as the sugar is
sold"
Thus far, Holly's growers in the
three factory districts have been
paid some $1,000, 900 for the 80
