Seven Years Make Many U. S. Changes Correspondent Bock After Seven Years (Editor's Note: This is the second in a series by a U.P. correspondent just returned from a seven-year assignment In Europe describing how America looks to him.) By ROBERT E, JACKSON United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK (VP) — When we left the United States seven years ago. the tunes of ‘'South Pacific" and the debate over Alger Hiss rang in our ears. "Pinky." blazing a trail across the color bar. was a controversial movie. Skirts were long and Joe DiMaggio was known as quite a baseball player instead of what’s-her-name’s former husband. Television was confined to lady wrestlers and Milton Berle. The last play we saw was “Death of a Salesman.” Others may have faded away between 1949 and 1956, but I’m here to tell ydu that few salesmen died

Cash has gone the way of the 5-cent cigar in America. Even if you haVe it, nobody will relieve you of it—not all at once. “Cash’” the salesman exclaimed. "Let ns finance it for yon. A little bit down, a little bit later and . . And it would cost me 20 per cent more in the end.

In Europe I had said I wouldn’t have one of those monstrosities in , clashing colors. I didn’t need an automatic gearshift. White sidewalls were show-offy. I forgot the salesman. In North Carolina. I bought a tourquoise - and - ivory Chevrolet which a state patrolman can spot from 25 tniles on a rainy day. It has a carload of chrome, white sidewalls, automatic gears. It wasn’t low-priced in my books but the salesmen assure me it was an “honest to gosh bargain” which stole the next meal right? out of his kids’ mouths.

Receives Report Os Savings Bond Sales T. F. Graliker. chairman of the Adams county U.S. savings bonds committee has received a report re. vealing that sales in the county for last month were $53,464 compared with $53,765 for September of last year. s Sales of U.S. savings bonds in Indiana during September were $9,549,262 and $13,124,865 for the like period of 1955. There was a 19 per cent drop in savings bonds nationally. The reduction in sales is only partially explained by the fact that there were 19 sales reporting days during September this year as compared with 21 for the corresponding period of 1955. Considering September statistics on the basis of daily averages to correct for tils variation, sales nation-1 ally were still 10.7 per cent below a year ago. Twenty-two of Indiana’s 92 counties reported sales gains. Most of the loss in sales is accounted for by a slackening demand for the series “H” bond, while sates, of the popular series “E” bonds are reported from all parts of the country to have held up fairly well.

Kefauver coupled a new blast at Nixon with praise for Sen. Thomas J. Hennings (D-Mo.) Kefauver said that Hennings “had the courage to stand up in the senate of the United States and defend the constitutional rights of all Americans. “He dia so at a time when Dwight Eisenhower wouldn’t.” Kefauver said, "because he was playing footsie with Joe McCarthy." Kefauver 1 apparently referred to the 1954 MiCarthy-army fight and the senate censure of the Wisconsin senator. . " • Kefauver charged from New York Tuesday night that more government officials have been “Im volved in corruption” under Mr Eisenhower than in any adminis: nation since the Republicans under Gen. U. S. Grant after the Civil War. ~ ■ ' Kefauver told his television viewers that Mr. Eisenhower must accept the personal responsibility for the broken promises he has made and for the “misconduct” of his top officials, Kefauver flew into St. Louis early this morning and scheduled .a news conference. He also planned speeches in St. Joseph and Springfield. Mo. ...... - . - In his “television broadcast.
