Appreciation Bell From Japan Sent To Iowans
A 2000 pound bronze bell from Yamanshi province will be set on the Iowa statehouse grounds as thanks for aid after a 1960 typhoon. The gift, tied to a 35 head hog lift and 60 000 bushels of corn, was organized by the National Corn Growers Association led by Walter Goeppinger. The bell house components traveled from California to Des Moines by a National Guard plane. Don't drive if you drink.
