It was a chilling thought.
I was somewhere in the Far
East when this idea suddenly be
gan taking shape. It has been
haunting me ever since.
Here it is:
Are we all becoming alike?
Is every nation on earth losing
its special customs, culture,
dividuality? Are we

Over 20 million women in 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

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

One night, some Indonesian stu

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

this is startling. First, it aban

large families. More important.

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.

communications and advertising
