SPRUCING UP Getting ready for the big event, Carole
Nielsen does a little retouching on a model of the American
President Lines' SS President Wilson. The big liner will
soon celebrate its millionth mile across the Pacific between
San Francisco and the Far East.
SLOW AS ..,
.. Norwich, N.Y. OJ.R) The old
adage, "slow as molasses in Jan
uary," was well illustrated here
recently. The manager of a local
feed store could not mix his
daiiy cattle feed because the mo
lasses was too cold to be pumped
through pipes into the mixing
machine. And with good reason
the mercury stood at 22 be
low zero.

tives have reported.

erage and distribution were

U.P. executives presided over by
U.P. President Frank H. Bar
tholomew in the agency's world
headquarters here.
Earl J. Johnson's vice-president
and general news mana
ger, said the U.P. had been able
to recapture the "old flexibility
of coverage" because of the eas
ing of travel restrictions almost
everywhere outside the Iron
Curtain. ,

interest," he said. "When the
story is in Bandung as it was
last week we were able to have
half a dozen men on the scene
from Cairo, Washington, Tokyo,
Manila and Hong Kong.
News Chain Reaction
"Almost every big story this
year has set off a chain reaction
of other news. London, Wash
ington and Tokyo react quickly
to something said or done in
Paris, in Moscow or New Delhi.
"Foreign news editor Phil
Newsom and his staff keep con
stantly in mind their responsi
bility to make this news .under
standable and interesting. "Thou
sands of words must be com
pressed into dispatches that fit
the space and time specifications
of newspapers and radio,
v Johnson noted a gradual re
laxation of consorship restric
tions in Russia, but regretted
failure so far to get an Ameri
can reporter into the .Chinese
Communist capital of Peiping.
The "best team job" of report
ing in recent months, he said,
came on the resignation of Win
ston Churchill.
"Our London staff, under the
guidance of bureau manager
Gene Patterson, anticipated the
news impact of this historic
event," Johnson said. "Their ad
vance copy, for release when
Churchill stepped down, caught
the ,epic sweep of the occasion.
"For most of it, they allowed
Churchill's own words, gathered
from over the years, to tell the
story, and they told it well."
Harry R. Flory, general man
ager of the U.P. communica
tions, reported that radioprinter
circuits established two years
ag now supply news to 78 cit
ies in 48 countries and territo
ries. Seventy of these cities are
on one of the two basic circuits
beamed from New York to cli
ents abroad, he said. .
Fax-Reaching Circuit
Flory saia one of the circuits
reaches 26 cities in 25. countries
and territories from London to
Cairo, Johannesburg, Bombay,
Manila, Tokyo and Sydney. Four
new pointSjwere added to the
circuit this yearhe said. They
are Ceylon, Singapore, Teheran
and St. John's, Newfoundland,
The other basic circuit, Flory
said, runs from New York
through Latin America and the
Caribbean area. Approximately
50,000 words daily, almost en
tirely in Spanish, are sent simul
taneously on this circuits to 44
cities in 19 countries and terri
tories, he said.
Joseph "L. Jones, vice-president
and general European man
ager, came the report that the
U.P. has more television clients
on the continent than all other
agencies combined. The U.P.
telephoto network also is the
largest of its kind in Europe, he
said.
He said that the easing of re
strictions on the other side of
the Iron Curtain had made it
possible for the U.P. for the first
time to supply pictures from in
side Russia, Hungary and Yugo
slavia. : ; ' ,
Asiatic Clitnti '
Earnest Hoberecht, U.P. vice
president and general manager
for Asia, reported the U.P, now
has clients in every country in
that area outside the "Bamboo
Curtain."
"On Formosa and in other top
news spots in the Far .East, the
United Press has taken special
pains to deploy reporters and ar
range special communications to
cope with the event," Hoberecht

What every
good cook knows:
said. -
Thomas R. Curran, vice-president
and general manager for
South America, said the first
city-to-city teletype circuit in
Argentina ' was established in
March. It runs between Buenos
Aires and Mar Del Plata, where
the daily La Manana now re
ceives national and internation
al news direct from U.P. head
quarters in Buenos Aires.
Of special interest, Curran
said, was a successful . experi
ment in whichteletypesetter dis
patches were sent y radioprint
er direct from New York" to El
Universal, in Carcas, Venezuela.
This was the first such trans
oceanic transmission ever rec
orded. The U.P. now has four sepa
rate photographic transmissions
to Latin America, he said.
Buenos Aires has been added
to the list of Latin American
cities where U.P. Movietone
News film is being shown on
television, he said. The others
are Havana, Mexico City, Sao
Paulo, Rio De Janeiro and Ca
racas. Canadian Operations
Philip R. Curran, British
United Press general manager
in Canada, reported B.U.P. has
established a facsimile news
picture system. The circuits
carry photographs to newspapers
and TV stations in Montreal,
Windsor and Hamilton.
He said B.U.Pi has 50 news
paper and 123 radio clients in
Canada. All TV stations on the
Canadian Broadcasting Corpora
tion's network receive U.P.
movietone news film, as do many
privately owned stations, he said.
United Press recently has
established two press association
firsts in Australia, reported
Peter B. Gruening, manager for
Australia, New Zealand and the
South Pacific.
The pioneer achievements
were a direct 24-hour radio-
printer news service 'and daily
scheduled radiophoto beamcasts
to the continent. The first travels
over a 15,200-mile circuit direct
from ' New York. The second
spans 7,400 -miles of Pacific
ocean, from San Francisco.
The Australian Broadcasting
Commission contracted for U.P.
radioprinter news soon after the
circuit opened. It now supplies
news "to 98 stations. "

Just a little difference in ingredients
makes a big difference in cooking results
Snowdrift is just a little lighter than any other shorten
ing and that can make the big difference in giving
your family lighter, more digestible foods.
V34 ' r
Snowdrift gives just alittle more
safety than ordinary shorten
ings, because it fries perfectly at
correct high temperatures. That
can make the big difference in
digestibility of fried foods.
Snowdrift's ingredients ere just
a little .costlier than any other 1
solid shortening's (yet you pay
no more). That can make the--big
difference in better tasting
foods, whether fried or baked
No other shortening at any price is
so creamy, "so digestible - and so light!
