Weeping flcon off Madonna
Hempstead, N.Y. (UPB A
Greek Orthodox archbishop
said Monday night he did not
doubt reports that an icon of
the Madonna in a home here
had shed real tears, even
though he did not see tears
forming when he examined
the printed image.
Archbishop Lakovos of the
Greek Orthodox archdiocese
of North and South America
said ther appeared to be tear
like stains on the inside of
the glass that covers the litho
graph of Mary.
Hundreds of persons are
said to have seen the icon
weep. Mrs. Panagiotis Catsou
nis, a 22-year-old seamstress
who owns the lithograph, said
. she saw the tears for the first
time when she was praying
before the icon Wednesday
night.

"I do not think I can ex
; plain it," Archbishop Lakovos
said, "but I cannot doubt it.
It has happened before in
Greece."
He said he had taken the

not removed it from the

investigation was planned.
The Rev. George L. Papa
deas, pastor of St. Paul's
Greek Orthodox Church here,
said he had seen the weeping
but that it apparently stopped
after the Catsounis apartment
was blessed Saturday.
The icon incident recalled
a terracotta statuette of the
Madonna which was reported
to have shed tears in 1953 in
Syracuse, Sicily. The Vatican
has given the reports sub
stantial credence. ;
The Syracuse Madonna,
which stood over the bed of
Mrs. Antonina Giusto Jannuso
in a humble peasant cottage,
was said to have started weep
ing Aug. 29, 1953, while Mrs.
Jannuso was in the pains of
childbirth.
Tears were reported to have
flowed at intervals for five
days, and doctors who an
alyzed them said in a signed
statement they contained the
same chemical elements as
human tears.

Elecfra Airliner
Makers Called To
FAA Conference
Washington (UPD The Fed
eral Aviation Agency called
the makers of the Lockheed
Electra airliner and its en
gines to a meeting today to
discuss why one of the planes
disintegrated over Indiana
last week.
The closed-door meeting
presumably will determine
whether any modifications
are needed in the turbo-prop
plane if it is found that the
disaster and a similar Electra
crash in Texas last fall were
caused by structural failure
due to weather turbulence.
Sixty-three persons were
killed in the Tell City, Ind.,
accident and 34 died in the
Buffalo, Tex crash.
Speed Limited
Today's session brought to
gether officials of the FAA
and the Civil Aeronautics
Board and representatives of
Lockheed Aircraft Corp. and
the Allison Division of Gen
eral Motors, makers of the
Electra's engines.
The FAA has ordered that
the Electra be flown no faster
than 316 miles an nour until
the cause of the crashes is de
termined. The plane normally
cruises at about 400 miles an
hour.
Chairman A. S. Mike Mon
roney (D-Okla.) of the Senate
aviation subcommittee said
preliminary evidence in the
Tell City investigation ap
peared to show disintegration
of the Northwest Airlines
plane in rough weather.
Bad Conduct Case
Goes fo High Court
Seattle-When the case of a

conduct came up in municipal
court, aides reported the de
fendant had died since his ar
rest. '
With a sigh, the judge said,
"He's moved his case to a
higher court. Next case."

He told the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee it was
too early to assess Russia's
true attitude. But its latest
overtures, he added, leave "no

meaningful disarmament."
Questions Answered
Hard bargaining at the con

will show whether there is
"more talk than substance" to
their newest proposals.
Herter made the comments
in answer to questions during
his appearance before the

Americans Not Given Blame for
Plight of Philippine Republic
Editor's note: Reports of anti.
Americanism in the PhiliDDines are
out-of-focus and the Anurlrim r.
siding in "Asia's showcase of democ
racy are not altogether blameless,
according to the following dispatch
by t'PI's Philippines manager for
the past three years.
GLASS CO.
303 N. Bartlert SP 3-3613
I 2
By WILLIAM MILLER
Manila - (UPD - Don't believe
all you hear about "anti
Americanism" in the Philip
pines.
It may not be like the so-
called "good old days" when
the natives came running as
soon as the white man yelled
"Boy!" But it is still one coun
try where Americans are
liked, admired and imitated.
This young island republic,
once dubbed "Asia's showcase
of democracy," has serious
problems. But one of them is
not widespread, deeply-felt
race hatred, "anti-Americanism"
or anti-anything.
Rich Get Richer
It's true that the rich are
getting richer while -the poor
remain very poor. There is
acute inflation, grinding un
employment and poverty plus
various charges of govern
mental graft and corruption.
Many Filipinos have some
what less than enough to eat.
. But, for the most part, Fili
pinos don't blame the Ameri
cans for these problems.
The off-year elections in
November proved again, as
have previous elections, that
race hatred is a hard commod
ity to sell to Filipinos on elec
tion day.
Whatever animosity Fili
pinos feel for "aliens" is cur
rently directed to a great ex
tent at the large and econ
omically powerful overseas
Chinese here. They number
some 300,000 and control most
of the food supply and much
of the money.
' It is probably true that if a
vocal group of nationalists,
mostly centered in Manila,
have their way, this animosity
may eventually also engulf
the dwindling American col
ony in the Philippines.
Uncertain Future
But that is generally con
sidered to be in the uncertain
future. And if real "anti
Americanism" does develop in
the Philippines, it would hard
ly be expected to reach the
car - burning embassy - wreck
ing, head-smashing stage ex
perienced in some other areas.
Most of the recent reports
on U.S.-Philippines problems
voiced by touring U.S. law
makers, centered around the
sprawling U.S. Air Force base
at Clark Field, scene of a con
siderable amount of looting
and pilfering by Filipino
thieves over the past several
years.
The Congressmen were bas
ically right with their facts,
but the picture got slightly
out-of-focus.
Far From Proud
It is a situation that most
Filipinos are far from proud
01, and iilipino defense au
thorities took quick action
after the first Washington ac
counts hit the front pages
here. The situation has report
edly improved.
On the other hand, how
ever, Americans stationed in
the Philippines are not entire
ly blameless
The fact remains that Clark
Field, and the other U.S. bases
in the islands, are. crammed
with new cars, sprawling post
exchanges and commissaries,

I I jlLLaECT'PABK
j-jl jjj North Phoenix Road Phone SP 3-6162 or SP 2-71 11
air conditioners, radios, TV
sets and such.
They will remain a tempta
tion to the less fortunate Fil
ipinos looking in from outside
the guarded fences, many of
them without jobs and some
living on two meals daily of
salt fish and rice.
Some Lire Too High
There will be more stealing
and more shooting of pilferers
and more controversy as a re
sult.
Considering the acute and
bleak economic facts-of-life in
the Philippines today, some of
the American visitors live too
high. And some do not set the
best possible examples.
Great amounts of American
PJt. goods find their way into
the booming black markets by
devious routes. One of the
most profitable businesses in
the islands today for Ameri
can servicemen and diplomats
-as well as the' Filipino mid
dlemen-is the mass selling
of U.S. cars, TV sets, air con
ditioners, washing machines
and other such items, import
ed tax-free at U.S. govern
ment expense.
Official Americans in the
Philippines can, and some of
them do, make as high as a
100 per cent profit on the sale
of these items and some bring
in two cars during their tour
to increase the take.
Basie Issues
As for the official disagree
ments between the Philippine
and U.S. governments, they
boil down to three basic is
sues:
-The long dispute over Fili
pino demands for increased
legal jurisdiction over U.S
servicemen stationed in the
Philippines.
-The old matter of the Phil
ippines' S800.000.000 "omni
bus claims" against the U.S.
resulting mostly from World
War II. The U.S. has authoriz
ed payment of a small amount
and given a no answer on
the rest. The Filipinos don't
intend to take "no" for an
answer.
-And there is the old com
plaint of the Filipinos against
being taken for - granted by
the U.S. - a debatable point
which is, nevertheless, firmly
believed in Manila.
Observers here feel that
this third complaint stands the
best chance of being settled -
possibly by a brief visit from
President Eisenhower to Ma
nila sometime in 1960.

is still under study. '
His comment was prompted
by inquiries about a United
Press International story re
porting that Russia's initial
explanations of its latest offer
have not convinced the Presi
dent or his aides that it is
acceptable. The story did not
say the President 'tad made
up his mind, but stated that
he must in the next few days
decide whether to accept or
reject the new Soviet offer.
Has No Quarrel
Hagerty said he had no
quarrel with the UPI story
"except to say that I think
the emphasis is a little wrong
at this time."
The Russians announced
Saturday they would accept
Eisenhower's Feb. 11 proposal
to ban all nuclear weapons
tests except small under
ground blasts if it were ex
tended to include a "mora
torium" on the lesser explos
ions, too, pending agreement
on how to police these sub
terranean shots of less than
20 kilotons.
This, in , effect, took the
President's plan and convert
ed it back into the old Russian
proposal for. a total ban ir
respective of whether detec
tion methods were adequate
to police it.

HE
"You Bet:flvm Proud off tilhie Way
We 'Build Evary- OSdmbler!"
"I'm one of the 25 thousand workers
who build Rambler. Like most of us,
I've worked in automobile plants prac
tically all my life. That's why I can say
that this sign above me is more than
just a slogan on a factory wall.
"We began to think and work this
way about five years ago we know it
helped make Rambler sales rise. We -know
it's an important reason why
we're working 24 hours a day, 6 days
a week to fill your orders.
"We're determined to keep building
cars the way we would want them built
for our own use. We think this is the
way we can keep Rambler sales and v
jobs going op and build our own future.''
Yes, it's the people on the line who
make Rambler a better car . . . who do -the
thousand and one little things it
takes to finish a car right.
It's the precise way they fit the doors
. . . seal the vent windows . . . tailor the
upholstery ... all as if they were going
. to own the car themselves.
Why Rambler sales break records
American motorists want quality in
the cars they buy. They've found it in
Rambler. That's one reason why Ram
bler has broken previous year sales rec
, ords for 29 consecutive months.
Rambler quality starts with 100 per
cent Single-Unit construction.
This year, many makes have followed
Rambler's better construction because
it is stronger, safer and lastingly quiet.
But in copying Rambler, some cars
have gone only halfway, ending their
unit construction at the fire-wall.
Others still use a few nuts and bolts,
joining body to frame, instead of Ram
bler's welded construction.
Rambler quality, too, means Deep
Dip rustproofing the entire body is
submerged in primer paint.
Most cars get only spraying no dip
at all. Others get only a "tip-toe" dip
along the bottom eighteen inches.
Rambler gives you a better choice
Rambler gives you the widest choice in
the compact car field . . . 33 different
models, including 17 station wagons.
v Many people don't realize that there are
three distinct classes of compact cars:
small compact cars, all-purpose compact
cars, and compact luxury cars. Only
Rambler dealers sell them all.
' All of the new imitators are in the
smaller car class competing with the
Rambler American. Despite claims to
the contrary, these cars do not have suf
ficient shoulder room to ride six big men
in comfort.
The 108-inch wheelbase Rambler Six
and Rebel V-8 are true all-purpose com
pact cars. They have the big car room
and comfort needed for six 6-footers.
Yet they have the handling ease and
economy of smaller cars.
At the very top of the compact field is
the 250 horsepower Ambassador V-8 by
Rambler America's only compact lux
ury car. The Ambassador offers luxury
car performance, comfort, room and ap
pointments plus the maneuverability of
a compact car, yet costs hundreds of
dollars less than other luxury cars.
Rambler gives you more
for less money
Manufacturers suggested factory deliv
ered prices prove Rambler the lowest
priced U. S. car.
It holds the postwar Mobilgas Econ
omy Run records as well as NASCAR
transcontinental economy records.
And Rambler owners find repair costs
are much lower because Rambler is built
better. Insurance rates are less.
According to official used car guides,
Rambler has higher resale value.
Ask any Rambler owner what Ram
bler quality means in terms of real
motoring enjoyment. Thee prove it to
yourself. See and drive the 1960 Rambler
at your Rambler Dealer's today.
How Rambler's Basic Excellence Brings
Yon Balanced Qualities of Usefulness
Rambler is built to give the ideal
balance of qualities most useful
to you:
Highest quality ideally balanced
with lowest prices.
Fine performance ideally bal
anced with top economy.
Big car comfort ideally balanced
with small car handling ease.
Greater strength ideally bal
anced with less bulk.
Plus smart modem styling.
That is why the runaway compact
car success is RAMBLER.
