Winter Day Stroll Through Phoenix Bustling With Local Color
A December sun warms Phoenix as locals stroll Jefferson Street and admire scenes from the Title and Trust Building to Porter's Used Books. Notables include Gaylord and Pinky Bancroft, Fred Porter, and Steve Shadegg. A Palo Verde tree graces a rear courtyard, a tiny cottonwood clings to new leaves, and a soda shop still trades for seven cents. Roadrunner debates, corrections from Arizona Game and Fish, and pet adoption notices mingle with a cheerful New Year greeting Feliz Ano Nuevo.

Millions of World War II veterans will begin receiving GI Insurance refunds on January 16. Checks will go out at about 200,000 daily, with a total of 2.8 billion dollars to be disbursed by June 30. Individual checks range from 90 cents to 528 dollars, averaging around 175 dollars, while economists predict a stimulative effect on business in early 1950. Veterans Affairs notes many refunds will be used to pay debts or buy homes and cars, and urges using savings bonds.
