Dec. 23—(UP)— Christmas spirit does exist and has a very definite effect on minds of human beings, under a court decision made in Kansas City. When James R. Page, prosecutor, asked for continuance of trial date, of three bankers, charged with violation of the state hanking laws, because he did not want them to face a jury at the Yuletide, his request was granted. Under reasoning of Page, minds of the jury are naturally influenced by holiday cheer and Christmas spirit. o GENEVA NEWS Mr. and Mrs. J. A.

Capital Greets Dolls '• As Friendship Envoys Washington, —(UP)—"Doll envoys of Friendship" are teceiving the na tlon’s greeting heie. They are the gift of more than two million Japanese , children as evidence of good-will to America. Seven of the dolls, the finest and most elaborate, have arrived as scheduled from Chicago on the Capitol Limited as sjiecial guests of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. Elaborate receptions have greeted the dolls in the United States. Leaving Japan after a huge farewell party in Tokyo, they were viewed oy over 5000 persons in Honlulu and visited as guests of the city by thousands of San Francisco in the City Hall rotunda. At Chicago they were honored at a public luncheon and reception. Their embassy will take them to New York and Boston and, in groups, of the more than 250 places requesting visits. The development of the idea of promoting good will between .nations throughout the children is due largely it is stated, to Dr. Sidney L. Glick, Secretary of the commission on internafinal justice of ’the Federal Council of the Churches, which instituted the Committee on Wot id Friendship among children. The Government of Japan lias en--trusted the children's message and the safety of .the dolls to R. Sekiya, a special envoy. The dolls will be permanent guests of the American people. o , Indianapolis Negro Is Executed In Illinois Urbana. 111., Dec. 222.— (INS)—In < the shadow of Christmas Day, on J which he chose to kill Thomas Tate, I aged Champaign, 111., negro.
