Main 772-2330 S&H Greon Stampi 1W Story cf Capitol Omits Some Features United Press International WASHINGTON (UPD-What is described as "the first full color picture story" of the U.S. Capitol came off the presses a few days ago and was an im mediate best seller. The last time I checked, or ders for the book, published by the Capitol Historical hociety, were coming in faster than it could be printed. litlcd "we, the People, it is part history and part guide book. 1 thought the text ana il lustrations were excellent. This does not mean, however, that the book is perfect. In my opinion, it would be much more interesting if its scope had been expanded to embrace not only the Capitol but the adjacent congressional office buildings. Senate in Action Need holiday money? For example, the photographs include the first official por trait ever made of the Senate in action. One can only regret mat it does not oner, as a companion piece, a color shot of tho senators private swim ming pool In the Old Senate Of fice Building. The bonk tends lo stress the monumental or museum side of die Capilol at the expense of its other role as a "living" in stitution. It could have struck a belter edilorinl balance had the cam era recorded a couple of sena tors in bikini-longlh togas in dulging in aquatic sports. i also leel that the book om t- ted several important fcalurcs in a cutaway drawing that lo cates, for the benefit of tour- IsIs, some of the chief points of interest. It is so happens that my desk in Ihc House Press Gallerv is situated by a door that opens onto a corridor leading lo the purine galleries. Consequently, I am in fre quent contact with tourists who slick their heads in the door and ask directions. Main Inquiries Judging from the inouiries I hear, I would say that the throe main things most visitors want to know about the Capitol are: l. Where is the nearest rest room ; 2. Where can I find a drink ing fountain? .1. How do I got out of here? The historical society's hook is remiss on all of these points. Had it Included a schematic di agram designating all of the public comfort stations, water holes and exits, it would have rendered a valuable service to me, if not to Ihc tourists. Finally, the East Front of the Capitol overlooks a so-called plaza, which is actually a park ing lot. In view of the prominence of this facility, it would have been appropriate to have devoted Studebaker President Byers A. Burlingame and top com pany officials . were in New t York today for a Board meet ing. ! The executives met in South Bend, Ind., with United Auto Workers union officials over the weekend to discuss the fate of , about 5,000 workers who will! lose their jobs as a result of the move. ; Burlingame was expected to announce the demise ot stude baker's auto operations Tues day. The company has a rich transportation history that traces its roots all the way to covered wagon days. Burlingame was unavailable for comment in New York as were other top executives in South Bend. However, reliable sources here said the announce ment would be made in New York Tuesday. Reduces Auto Firms The demise of Studebaker will reduce to four the number ol major auto firms General Mo-! tors, Ford, Chrysler and Amen-1 can Motors. j The automotive division of the company has been a money loser since 1959. That was its best year when it got the jump j on the rest of the industry with I a compact car and the corpora- j tion earned $28.5 million. i However, .Burlingame, in his I first statement of policy since taking over the company, said : early this month the other 12 divisions of the highly diversi-; tied corporation are operating at a profit this year. Studebaker finished 19(30-61-62 ; in the black but the automotive division operated at a loss. Last year, Studebaker posted earn ings of 52.56 million on sales oi $3115.45 million. During the first nine months of the current year, sales to taled $:i02.6 million, up from $250.9 million during the same period last year. However, net losses for the first nine months of the year totaled $9.83 million WIN! WIN!
