Another Roman Catholic blow at the held hand and the shared ice-cream soda (TIME, March 11) came last week when Santa Fe's Archbishop Edwin V. Byrne warned the 70,000 parochial-school children in his diocese against the "pagan" practices of "going steady, keeping steady company, necking and kissing." Warned the prelate: "Any boy or girl who persists will not be allowed to hold any position of honor in a school-and will be expelled, if necessary...
Last week, despite the mutterings of patronage-bent Republicans, President Eisenhower named Democrat Robert McKinney, New Mexico newspaper publisher (Santa Fe New Mexican), cattleman and corporation director, as the U.S. representative in the 45-nation International Atomic Energy Agency, created to carry out the atoms-for-peace program that the President proposed in December 1953. Patronage problems aside, brainy Bob McKinney, 47, seemed a sound choice for the post. A onetime (1951-52) Assistant Secretary of the Interior, he served ably in 1955-56 as chairman of a top-level citizens' panel set up by the Joint Congressional Committee...
...Mexico's Ambrosia Lake is a misnamed patch of sunbaked, bone-dry limestone where miners have long thought they smelled uranium. The Santa Fe Railway opened a small strip mine near by in 1950, and Anaconda Co. began to work the richest U.S. uranium mine 20 miles southeast of Ambrosia Lake. But no one struck it rich in Ambrosia Lake until 1955. Then a young (31) Texan named Louis B. Lothmann came in with a $10,000 grubstake, two years of college geology and a hunch on where to look. He teamed up with Septuagenarian Stella Dysart...
...freely elected bodies of Argentine citizens were trying-painfully, confusingly-to shape a democratic future for a nation still rent by a decade of dictatorship. At the inland city of Santa Fe last week, 205 members of a constituent assembly gathered to write a constitution to replace the dictatorial charter used by deposed Strongman Juan Perón. In a Buenos Aires dance hall, Peronista and anti-Peronista labor leaders fought for control of the all-embracing General Labor Confederation (C.G.T.). President Pedro Aramburu, the uncompromising general who heads the provisional regime, spurred them on with urgent warnings. "While...
...case study for economists. From the headquarters of roads from Boston to San Francisco came gloomy news of a sharp setback in earnings: a 40% decline for the Pennsylvania, the nation's largest railroad, a 60% nose dive for the New York Central, 15% for the Santa Fe, 25% for the Rock Island, 11% for the Boston & Maine. All told, said the Association of American Railroads, railroad profits for the first six months of 1957 have declined $61 million from 1956 levels. Worse yet, twenty-one Class 1 railroads even failed to earn enough to pay their debt interest...
