Women Can't Be Pushed Says Sales Psychologist By PATRICIA McCORMACK Uniled Press International New York -(CPD- Chalk up one for our side: A psychologist male claims that women are not the stub born, obstinate creatures men think they are. It's just that women can't be pushed, said Dr. Daniel Brower in the current issue of "The American Salesman." Psychologically, he said, there are subtle ways of mak ing a woman say "yes" to a sales talk even though most "are conditioned to say no' at first." There are three basic ele ments to consider in selling women: Submissiveness, dom inance and essential immatur ity," Brower said. "No one outside an institution is a pure example of one type or another." ' The submissive woman, ac cording to Brower, needs en couragement, since "she won't make her own deci sions." Fatherly Approach . To sell this type, he sug gests a fatherly approach - a mixture of soft and gentle words, plus patience. . "Help her to make deci sions, don't push her into making them," he said. The domineering woman, according to the psychologist, brings out the worst in a man, he said: "Most men feel the urge to bull their way ahead and mow her down. This is al most guaranteed to lose a sale. With a woman like this, the approach must be more diplo matic. "Use what we call the car thartic approach. She'll wear herself down and save you the trouble. Cajole her a lit tle. She may want to see what you're going to do about her objections. "You've got to match her verbally and intellectually. There's almost an aspect of a pleasant tug-of-war about it." The essentially immature type, according to Brower, may be somewhat neurotic. She's the hardest to get to say "yes" because of her inner turmoil, he said. Timing Brings Sale He views this type as a combination of the submis sive and domineering type. The approach, as he put it: "Let her talk until you get your bearings. She is never normal; she is always rushing past it. It is wiser, therefore, to sell her when the aggres sive climb has reached its peak. For a while she has then overcome her inner struggles and is more reasonable to deal with. "If you miss this peak - or don't, recognize it until too late let her go on talking until she gets down to the low point." In his analysis, the psychol ogist doesn't say a word about a fourth type - the woman who says: "Hello . . . no! . . . goodbye." She hasn't vanished from the American scene, has she? Hotel's Executive Chef Describes Gourmet Meal By MARGUERITE DAVIS United Press International . Chicago-(UPD-The ideal diner sips no more than one cock tail before dinner, according to Chef John Kaufmann, and shares a split of wine with his companion during a 2li hour gourmet meal. .

Telephone Use Increases With Color Instruments By CLAIRE COX United Press International New York -ftPD- Now that the idea of two cars in every garage has been accepted as a symbol of success, the Bell System is pressing for three telephones in every home as a way to expand the economy. Colored telephones may help do the trick, Bell System officials believe. When colored phones were introduced in 1954, there were about 52,000,000 somber black ones in use across the country. Since then, housewives and businessmen have been order ing phones in decorator hues ranging" from white ,to cherry red at such a rate that 6,000,- 000 of them are jangling away in homes, hotels and offices. Not only are they pleasant to look at, a spokesman said, but they encourage the use of the gift of gab. Color Encourages Something seems to come over a person when his eye lights on a , colored phone, whether in home, hotel or of fice. He just can't resist pick ing up the receiver and ring ing someone up. ' This is just as true of men as women. . That makes the telephone companies very happy. Every telephone ring is like the mu sic of a cash register to them. A recent survey was made in a hotel in which some rooms had traditional black phones and others, colored. Guests made nearly 20 per cent more calls on the colored phones. "Color has helped take the phone out of its hiding place" a Bell spokesman said. "The result is that the phone is in view more readily, more of ten, and we are stimulated to make more calls." The National Society of In terior Designers was so im pressed with colored phones that it gave the Bell Tele phone System its 1958 award for the most outstanding con tribution to interior decorat ing of the year. Match Furniture Decorators match phones to draperies, chairs, lampshades, and other furnishings. Event ually, telephone wires will be hidden as electric wiring is. , Bell officials say it will be sometime before the three-phone6-per-family concept is established, however. But the two-telephone idea has made much progress. In homes with one phone, living room, dining room, hall and kitchen are favorite places for installation in that order, surveys showed. In multiple-phone homes, the bedroom is . the favorite site for the second phone. Plug-in phones, which can be moved from room to room, also are becoming popular. The Yale & Towne Manu facturing Co., makers of locks and safes, gave the telephoned companies a big boost with an appeal for a telephone at I every bedside. 'When threatened by dan ger," the locksmiths advised, 'call for help."

The last time as few as 7,000 men were drafted was in the October December period of 1957. The reduced April call re sults in part from manpower; slashes imposed on the Army.
