Universal Newsreel Volume 36, Release 25

Description

The original release sheet reads: U.S.-LATIN TALKS: 7 PRESIDENTS CONFER IN COSTA RICA President Kennedy receives a tumultuous welcome in San Jose as he arrives in Costa Rica for a "little summit" conference with the heads of six Central American nations. Nearly everybody in San Jose-250,000 people-turn out to cheer Mr. Kennedy on his way to the first session of the conference. At the national theater a "Declaration of Central America" is drawn up calling for new measures to meet subversive aggression from Cuba. Mr. Kennedy pledges new aid for economic development both in Central and South America. THAW TRIGGERS LANDSLIDE IN JAPAN Roaring down the mountains that tower over the Japanese waterfront town of Nou, a landslide cuts the village in two and pushes a crack passenger express train into the sea. Tons of dirt and rock crush thirty houses and despite the cataclysmic force of the slide, no one was killed. EASTER PARADE: HATS TO TURN A PRETTY HEAD Ladies have something in their future to chase the doldrums of winter. A preview of hats for the Easter Parade features turbans...but they are not all severe. Flossy flowered fantasies are forcast, too. From turbans to cartwheels-there's something for every parader, come Easter.
