'Real Drug Store' lo Quit Business New Orleans (IP A drug store that never sold a maga zine or ice cream cone but did a flourishing business in black leeches and slippery elm bark, will be closed soon. Max Samson's "Real Drug Store," a Camp Street landmark since 1973, is being sold by the former's owner's daughter, Mrs. Herman Barnett, wife of a New Orleans attorney. Mrs. Barnett has dispensed prescriptions and drugs since the death of her father in 1920 from behind the huge old-fashioned mahogany counters which were imported from Germany. Samson purchased the store more than eight decades ago after receiving a degree from the old New Orleans College of Pharmacy. He wore a black al paca coat and ceremoniously bowed each of his customers out the door with an "au revoir." Antique pill rollers, grinders, and mortars and pestles are still in the prescription department along with thousands of volumes of carefully bound prescriptions. Except for fluorescent lighting and a few other modern touches. Max Samson's remains the same as it did 84 years ago. Mrs. Barnett said she is do nating all of the store's fixtures, old prescriptions, exotic herbs, and medicines to the Historical Pharmacy Museum.

Mexico is borrowing some American ideas to push development of its "backward" economy. With the help of experts from five states, the Mexican govern ment is organizing an American-model Economic Develop ment Commission to overcome Mexico's 80-year technological lag. The commission will work on programs to decentralize indus try, strengthen provincial econ omy and slow the migration of Mexicans seeking esaier living across the border. One chief goal will be to take part in Mexico's development. Mexican industrialist Antonio Ruiz Galindo, former economy minister who heads the commis sion, calls it "the irst step in facing a pr blem that has slowed the progress of Mexico." U. S. Experts Consulted Taking its cue from the work of simillr groups in Arkansas, Massachusetts and other states, the commission will attempt to organize and plan industrial and economic development on both regional and national scale. It will solicit new industries and attempt to steer prospective investors to the most logical and profitable areas. Easier credit will be made available for planned development. Technical aid for new industries also falls under the program. The Mexican Economic De velopment Comission got its start when Economy Minister Gilberto Loyo invited a group of American experts to give the benefit of their experience in state programs. William p. Rock of the Ar- jkansas Development Comission, ur. xvaiiaau i. rxienune ox me Oklahoma Development Com mission, Ohio Development Comissioner Prentiss Mooney, Dr. W. H. Caldwell of the Vir ginia Development Commission and Robert P. Lee of the Con necticut Development Commis sion sat down with Mexican of ficials in the series of meetings held here. Both government and private enterprise will take an active part on the commission. The fields of research, development, planning, financing and promo tion are represented. Richard Zevada, director of the Bank of Foreign Commerce, said Mexico now realizes it "no longer is practical to fail to plan both government and private enterprise in each and every re gion of the country." Other officials emphasized that more foreign investment is needed since Hexico's economic situation despite tremendous progress in the past 20 years is comparable to that of the United States in 1860-70. The officials said that if Mex ico continued its rate of steady progress, by the year 2000 it can catch up with the United States level of 1957. "But the work of the commis sion should boost our present progress rate considerably," said one member, "and offers a notable step in the right direc tion 'towards a better industrial and modern life patterned after Mexicon needs, using and adapt ing the invaluable experience of the United States." 'Passenger PocT May Answer Problem Chicago HP) A "passenger pod" is expected to be the an swer to a passenger problem created by the modern jet air liiers. The new device will eliminate the costly ground runs that air liners must make from the run way to the terminal to pick up passengers. The pod also will help eliminate the hazard of en gine blast, always present as the plane maneuvers to park. The "passenger pod," develop ed by the Clark Equipment Co., will be a shell with seats. It will be picked up by a "straddle carrier" and taken to the plane parked at the end of the run way. The straddle carrier is a modi fied version of the ones now being used by industry. The in terior of the pod will resemble the inside of a plane, complete with air conditioning and good lighting. Flight passengers will board the pod outside the ticket gate at the airline terminal and the straddle' carrier will pick it up and take it to the plane. The carrier will raise the pod to the plane door, allowing passengers to walk to their seats. TORNADO TROUBLE Royalton, 111. OP Mr. and Mrs. Walter Young figure they must be tornado-prone.
