Former Venezuelan Dictator Extradited • MIAMI (UPI) — Marcos Perez Jimenez, who once ruled Venezuela with an iron grip, waited in a jail cell today for extradition to his homeland on charges he embezzled $13.5 million from ■the national treasury. A Venezuelan plane was scheduled to arrive in Miami today with a delegation of 15 government officials to escort the onetime dictator back to his homeland and a “speedy trial.” Secretary of State Dean Rusk ended Jimenez’ long fight against extradition Monday when he ordered the former strongman extradited at the request of Venezuelan President Romulo Bentancourt. It was not immediately known if a paternity suit against Jimenez would delay the plane’s return, but one Venezuelan official said he did not see how a state court suit could supercede the federal ruling. Jimenez, the bespectacled major general who ruled Venezuela from 1952 until his overthrow in 1958, had to post $300,000 bond for the jnother and child in the event of his extradition.

Many Saints Do Not Fit To Stereotype

By LOUIS CASSELS United Press International The word “saint” conjures up in most minds the image of a gentle, pious, unselfish person to whom goodness comes as naturally as breathing. But the church calendar contains the names of many saints who just don’t fit that stereotype. For example, Thursday, July 25 1 was the feast day of St. James the Great. The New Testament has\quite a lot to say about this fellow; And it depicts him as a very ordinary human being, with a tendency to be vain, ambitious and hot-tem-pered. He was the son of a fisherman named Zebedee, who lived in the town of Capernaum, and operated a fleet of fishing boats on the Sea of Galillee. James had a brother named John and two close friends named Simon and Andrew, who worked with him in the fishing business. The monotony of their lives was broken one day by the arrival in Capernaum of a young itinerant preacher names Jesus of Nazareth. When Jesus talked about God. he sounded like he was speaking from first-hand information, rather than quoting out of a book. He was the most alive and compelling person who had ever come to Capernaum, and the four young fisherman were greatly attracted to him. One day, Jesus walked down to the shore where the four fishermen were at work. "Follow me.” he said, "And I will make you become fishers of men.” James and his three friends didn’t hestitate. They didn't tell Jesus they'd need a little time to wind up their business. They just dropped their nets and followed him. They were the first of the 12 Apostles. And they were destined to remain Jesus’ closest friends and confidantes. Jesus seems to have had a particular affection for Simon, whom He renamed Peter, and for the two brothers, James and John. The New Testament records that He chose Peter, James and John to accompany him on several special occasions, including the last night in the Garden of Gethsemane, when He waited for His arrest and crucifixion. Close association with Jesus did not change James overnight into a gentle and unselfish soul. Once, when the people of a Samaritan village gave Jesus a discourteous reception, James lost his temper and wanted to call down fire from heaven to wipe out the whole village. Jesus rebuked James severely for this proposal, and reminded him that “The Son of Man

came not to destroy men’s lives but to save them.” Later, to rub in the lesson with a little pointed humor, Jesus gave James a nickname: “Son of Thunder." On another occasion, James and his brother went to Jesus privately, and tried to extract a promise that they would be given the top seats of honor—on his right hand and left hand—when He came to His throne. They were still thinking, as all of the Apostles persisted in doing despite Jesus’ efforts to teach them otherwise, that He had come as an earthly messiah or king. Jesus Rebuked James Again Jesus had to rebuke his friend, and as always, he used the qccasion to teach a positive lesson. "You know that those who are supposed to rule over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority among them,'' Jesus said. "But it shall not be so among you. “Whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all. For the Son of Man also came not to be served, but to serve . . . . ” It took James a long time to understand what it meant to be a disciple of Christ. Perhaps he didn’t really comprehend until he had the awesome experience of being a witness to the Resurrection. But when he finally did get the point, James followed his Lord all the way. When the first, persecution of the
