Nevertheless, a re cent study shows that 90 per cent of them "find time" to read the daily newspaper on an average day. straight toward (you'll pardon the expression) togetherness: It looks tnat way. It appear that, in the not too distant future, we may be dress ing more alike, eating much the same foods, living in a few stand ard types of houses, watching the same international TV programs, dancing the same dances, re sponding to the same advertise ments, developing pretty much the same tastes. Fantastic? Of course, but look over your shoulder. Only yesterday, a low - slung European car was so rare on the road that you stopped to stare at it. Few Americans ever heard of a vodka martini, much less tasted it. Foreign movies were confined to small, arty theaters in the big cities. Who would have dreamed that a Japanese actress would win an Oscar? Only yesterday. Coca-Cola in vaded Europe. The wine growers rocked with laughter at first Soon, they were yelling for gov ernment protection. Same with the Paris coiffeurs when Ameri can hair-waving gadgets began to tcke hold with the girls On Formosa, the other day. a Chinese lot had a birthday. Which gift wrecked the parly? A cow boy suit with chaps and a 10-pint stetson. One night, some Indonesian stu dents gate a musical program.

All over, you see the "shoji" panel, screens used as room-dividers, vases of flowers and scroll paintings set in com bination, the Japanese way of honoring a guest. These are not unrelated devel opments. They are part of a uni versal trend. Let's look at some of its major aspects. Take the position of women in some countries where, for centur ies, they have been the inferior sex. In Egypt, a feminist leader is agitating for their right to vote. In East Germany, a woman Com munist is the minister of justice. In Japan, women hold seats in Parliament and have become business executives. Take Sonne changing social customs. Communist China is edging to ward birlh control. On two counts, this is startling. First, it aban dons the Oriental tradition of large families. More important. happen in a Socialist society It is hardly news that rock V roll has taken root all around the world, that there are native ver sions of Elvis Presley in other countries, that the marriage ar ranged by the parents is disap pearing in the Orient. Take an American psychological development. Do you delect a tendency among young Americans to play it sale, to overvalue security and undervalue adventure, to empha size pensions and benefits instead of opportunity in a job. European young men and women have been doing that for many years. Take a major political current, me communist nations consti tute a bloc. As a reaction, other nations have drawn together into blocs. It is not only NATO and SEATO. You see it in the Coal and Steel Federation and Euralom in Western Europe, in the new West Indies federation, in the Arab at tempts to come together. Thus few nations today can' af ford the luxury of a wholly inde pendent foreign policy. Few can go free-wheeling along in their own way. These arc the trends. Powerful influences are at work, accelerat ing them by the minute. Long ago. for example, mass communications and advertising largely erased the differences in they see each other on interna tional TV. Think of the impact of jet air liners, cutting travel time, mak ing it possible for more people to go farther from home. One of these days, no doubt. science will provide the Eskimo with an ordinary business suit except that it will be electrically heated. Air conditioning already has come to the tropics and the blazing deserts, changing the homes, costumes and habits of the people there. Even the cold war. ... It brings thousands and thousands of peo ple from many nations to the United States for training; Ihey carry away with them ideas about American living methods. Vice porate into the way they live. Like it or not, for better or worse, we are losing our differ ences, becoming more and mora alike. For More Living Per Gallon See the New MORRIS '1000' at Robin & Myers 1200 I. Main TU 2-SS11 FREE!
