J 1 i i 1 Soviet Exhibition in New York Said To Create Distorted View By ELMER C. WALZER UPI Financial Ediior New York (CPD-Visiting the Soviet exhibition on science. technology and culture in New York gives one an impres sion of strides being made in Soviet tech- t V I nology and in Soviet stand ard of living. These im- pressions e p u 1 d be wrong. Hence. the way to make a visit to the fair, is to take along a busi nessman who recently has been to Moscow. This department had the good fortune to go with Rob Quotes From the News United Press International Warsaw-Nlkita Khruschev, saying he decided against visiting Sweden because of adverse criticism from Swedish newspapers: "If thay spit in my faca, a guest, why should I go?"

Greene, president of R o w e Manufacturing Co., which makes all sorts of vend ing machines-cigarette, can dy, or you might bundle them up with a soup-to-nuts classi fication. Greene was impressed in Moscow with the cleanliness of the streets, the friendliness of the people and the lack of civilian preparations for war in the way of bomb shelters and air raid tests. He was impressed with the eagerness of the Russians to learn and to work hard., If the Soviets "continue their pres ent pace and we stand still" he holds, "the Communist na tion could well threaten Am erican economic leadership." At the Soviet fair, Greene be more of a coincidence than a cause of the moderate re action that has taken place," says W. E. Hutton & Co. The backing and filling should be looked upon largely as a technical affair and not a reflection of what is hap pening in the steel industry, it adds. f Hayden, Stone & Co. lists Island Creek Coal, General Railway Signal and Sperry Rand as three stocks which have lagged behind the mar ket and which may be in for a price rise. Value Line recommends Bigelow-Sanford, Lowenstein and Manhattan Shirt for long term investment in the tex tile industry. 3 D IBs savings are earning money at our Insured Savings and Loan was interested in consumer goods displays-clothing, food, shelter, cars, model apart ments, furs, etc. Distorted View . He found this side of the exhibit created a "distorted view and an exaggerated ver sion of life in the Soviet Un ion." ' Greene, who spent two hours with other Soviet offi cials in Moscow, described the exhibit as impressive, but "not nearly presenting a true pic ture." The items displayed appear ed to him to ' be products "planned for the future." That model apartment on display was a case in point. The present apartments - five story walkups-aren't like that, he said. Greene described present day Soviet plumbing as the type used in the U. S. in the early 1900s. While in Moscow, he visit ed a one-bedroom, three-room apartment which housed a grandmother, aunt, mother, father, and four youngsters. There were -five beds in the bedroom and the residents had so little room they had to hang their clothing on a rail in the hallway, he said. . Soviet kitchens aren't like the one on display. "They have the tiniest of sinks and many of the pipes are exposed. Each tenant does his own painting in multiple dwellings-because (he was told) all tenants have different tastes" which they express with a paint brush. . Cars Unavailable To Public Good-looking autos at the exhibit just aren't available for the general public, he said. "The car available to the av erage Russian," he said, "is priced way out of line,, a fa vorite trick of the Soviets, When, they don't want people to have something, they , can always price it beyond their means: .- "Russians have to work about a month and a half to get a suit. It would take them many years to pay for a car -if they could get one." Greene naturally was inter ested in vending machines in Russia. He found three drink machines in the Leningrad subway station neatly roped off with a fat cord. They are only used during the subway rush hours, he was told. He spotted two others in depart ment stores, dispensing pen cils and books. Russians all carry books, he said, and they 'are well pro vided with radios. They seem well fed but only for immedi ate needs because of a lack of refrigeration. There are none of the delicacies shown at the fair available to the general public in Russia. Y Greene had to pay $1.68 for a candy bar. And that remind ed him when he glanced at the .fur exhibit to . exclaim "You don t see much of that stuff on the streets in Moscow among the common people."

We Give GREEN STAMPS CENTRAL REXALL DRUG Main and Central Television Reviewer Sends 'Peck's Bad Girl1 Show To Early Oblivion By FRED DANZIG UPI Correspondent New York - (DPD - Although Peck's Bad Girl doesn't fade from the CBS-TV schedule until next month, I'd like to give it an early send-off into oblivion. . This is one family situa tion comedy flop that seemed content to wallow in the trivia and Pollyannaisms of all the other family-type shows' on TV instead of striv ing to live up to its promis ing concept. The solemn pur pose of Peck's Bad Girl, as I saw it, was to teach Ameri cans to honor and respect egg heads. This would be achieved by dealing with the family life of a research physicist played by Wendell Corey. Find a Yogi Berra Now that's a noble girl. But instead of giving us the egghead and his offspring on a take-it-or-leave-it basis, they tried to prove that if you scratch a scientist, you find a Yogi Berra underneath. In TV terms, that means the egg head is only fond of watch ing fights on TV, has a sharp sense of humor and is often befuddled by the children. That moved Peck's Bad Girl right back to the Danny Thomas - Donna Reed - Robert Young & Co. group. For example, Tuesday night's episode had Corey as the sunny-side-up egghead be coming an acceptable, non square human by abandoning his principles. That is, he learned a rock 'n' roll dance after knocking the rock earl ier. But his act was supposed to make his daughter, played O Bath Mats 21"x34" Chenille mat fringed' all around. 1 0 different colors. CLEARANCE PRICE O Bath Mats 36"x60". This is a regular $3.98 value.

I recall a recent Playhouse 90 drama called "Project Im mortality," in which Lee J. Cobb played a scientist. His family life was depicted in a way that stamped it undeniab ly "different," but still warm, close and highly communica tive. It was a memorable por trait. You turn that .into a weekly family series and you're doing something for the egghead and the country. You don't do good with a patronizing "be kind to egg heads" approach exemplified by Peck's Bad Girl. Logger Killed At Cannon Beach Cannon Beach (DPD A Cannon Beach logger, 63-year-old John C.
