...most of his life, lean, lobo-eyed Jesse James, now 39, seemed well on the way to paralleling the career of his notorious namesake, though less successfully. A hard-bitten Harlem Negro, he spent a dozen years in Comstock, the Elmira Reformatory and Sing Sing for crimes ranging from narcotics addiction to armed robbery. Out on parole in 1961, Jesse went West and straight -even to the extent of becoming a lay minister in the All Nations Church of God in San Francisco. Last week, in the city's crime-rife Mission district, a new James gang was riding...

Even that diversion may soon end. Last week El Lobo ("the Wolf") ousted Isabella's chief lieutenant, José Alonso, as general secretary of the giant General Confederation...
...Explosives. The increase in sugar production has produced some sour with the sweet. Exceptional harvests all around the world will create a 4.4 million-ton surplus this year; prices have toppled from 11.18? per Ib. only last month to last week's 2.20?. Two companies operated by Julio Lobo, the world's foremost sugar buyer, recently went bankrupt by banking on a rising market. The situation is complicated by Castro's Cuba, whose crop this year is expected to rebound to 5 million tons. Russia, the world's largest grower (from sugar beets), takes...
