O'BRIEN United Preit International Portland, Maine - il'PH - Foreign correspondents cov ering the American scene for readers and listeners overseas are becoming aware that life in much of the United States is sharply distinct from the daily living in New York and Washington. Through the state of Maine's program to entertain foreign journalists and broad casters, those who have visit ed here in the past six months are discerning this difference and reporting it back to their home countries. America's often-tarnished image abroad has taken on a new, most favorable dimension. This state, easternmost in the nation, is known for its social simplicity and the lei surely pace of its 970,000 citi zens. Since last March, Maine has been cooperating with the federal government in help ing present a picture of U. S. life that infrequently is transmitted overseas. Because much of the state is vast forest land and the total industrial output is not great, the way of life of Maine people is not reflected in the daily flow of major news events from th nation's businesses and political capi tals. Correipondents Hosted In its biggest single effort to demonstrate how Maine people work and play, the slate entertained 20 foreign correspondents for an entire week in mid-August. The newsmen and their wives were brought to Maine in a chartered bus. They visited the Telstar earth station in the mountains of Western Maine; they saw huge pulp and paper mills in operation, and they were treated to a unique display of all products made in Maine. But most important, they liv ed in the homes of warm hearted families. A number of foreign journ alists had been entertained by Maine families previously, but the August outing was the biggest and longest visit by members of the foreign press to the "Down East" slate. Another busload of re porters from around the world now are in the Bangor area. Maine officials hope their example of good neighborly ness to visiting newsmen will be followed by many other slates. At least 10 stales al ready have expressed serious interest in the program. By coincidence, the week's vis-it began while President Kennedy was enjoying a brief vacation on a coastal island near Maine's seaside village of Boothbay harbor. A highlight of the foreigners' visit was an old-fashioned Maine lobster and clambake on pine-studded Cabbage is land, a 20-minute boat trip from Boothbay. For nearly seven hours, the foreign guests conversed on all manner of subjects with American newsmen covering the Kennedy party and with Maine people representing a wide variety of occupations and cultural backgrounds. The words were in many lan guages, but the smiles and nods of understanding had universal meaning. Ocean Dinner Late in the afternoon, the guests were served a de licious dinner of steaming lobsters and clams coo';ed in seaweed over an outdoor fire. Curious seagulls soared above the stately pine trees and oc casionally dipped into the surf for their own seafood specialties. A mild breeze bore a sally scent from the ocean as the clouds parted to reveal sunwashed views of Maine's rockbound coast. To a man, the correspond ents agreed that New York was never like this. Aristide Moleon of Ultimas Noticeis in Caracas, Venezu ela, and his vivacious wife, Gloria, former editor of the women's magazine, Paginas, were among those impressed with this flavor of Maine. They have lived about three months in New York. "I scn?e here, as in other places I've traveled in the United States, the goodwill and the desire of the people to help other countries solve their problems. I realize that most of the time the chief problem is lack of communi cation. To exchange ideas, to get to know each other as we are doing today, is the basic way to settle differences be tween nations. I think this is a fine way to have us learn about' your people.". Moleon said. Mrs. Moleon said "it is lovely and peaceful here. The absence of noise around makes us feel more warmth from the people. This is the most important kind of thing Americans can do." Henk Ohnesorge of the Chemists Try To Stop Static Electricity Atlantic City, N. J. - HTH -Chemists now are trying to eliminate sialic electricity from synthetic fibers and plastics. Dr. Allen E. Sherr, of the American Chemical Society's division of organic coatings and plastics chemistry, told scientists at the society's an nual meeting here that mixing an anti-static agent into a plastic before it is spun into textiles is the best way to solve the problem. Springer Foreign News Serv ice in Germany, has been in the United States for about two years. He perceived the contrast with life in New York. "I can't think of any in stance when I've fell so much at home in America." Ohne sorge said. "I am amazed at the lack of noise, traffic and flashing neon lights." Ohnesorge's charmin j wife, Margot, compared the setting with Baltic sea re sorts in Europe. She was im pressed "with your beautiful Bert Van Velzen, KRO ra dio, representing Belgium and The Netherlands, has been in New York for three years and seashore and the thick woods at the edge of the ocean." Darnel Viklund of Dagens Nyheter in Stockholm recent ly arrivprt from I.nnrinn to spend two or three weeks in was on his second trip to New York before moving on i Maine. He said the person-to-to Washington. He liked the person approach to mutual old-fashioned houses and the j understanding "is a terrific slower pace in Maine. j "Many of your houses look i 'ea like those built in Sweden 40 ! "This is the only way to or 50 years ago. I like it here I get to understand people in because everything is not so j different parts of America bright and shiny. Theri is a and to find out what makes more settled culture . . . peo ple seem more sure of things." them tick." said Van Velzen, aptly summing up the mean ing of the program.
