He has called the North Atlantic Trea ty Organization "a society of war lunatics." Laxness, 53, has been a candi date several years for the prize. Apparently the royal Swedish academy this year overcame the dislike of his political leanings that at least some of its members had felt. He will receive $36,720 at the presentation of Nobel awards Dec. 10. Laxness writes about the every day life of the 130,000 persons of his home island in the North At lantic.

In contrast with their silence on conferences with the president in Washington, these executives have been holding regular news con ferences here on what they dis cuss and legislative recommenda tions they present. The problem of sagging farm prices scarcely can be overlooked in the State of the Union message. Political Debate Already it is a subject of hot political debate.

Thus, Spun slice "A" is actually made ah-tight to stay fresh longer. And this means better flavor. The Spun Process also assures perfect texture.
