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
