Mortgage & Fiat. As Labor Minister Lopez Mateos often worked a seven-day week. His. ministry handled 13,382 labor disputes; only 13 developed into strikes.

He also helped write the successful Mexican-U.S. agreement on control of border-jumping "wetbacks," and might well express his admiration for Mexico's northern neighbor were it not that by local tradition such sentiments are political suicide...
Playhouse 90: Farley Granger appears to try twice as hard as most young actors, but the end product is often not good enough by half.

It's not the years," he says sorrowfully...
Time was when fathers often passed the craft of painting on to their children, and sometimes created artistic dynasties of the first order. Some of the greatest painters of the Renaissance grew great at home. The practice never took hold in the rough and tumble of American life, though Revolutionary War Hero Charles Willson Peale did raise two painting sons, one of whom, first-named Raphaelle, surpassed the father. But the 20th century does offer an outstanding example of an American artist following in his father's footsteps. The one is Andrew Wyeth (TIME...
