Brig. Gen. John K. Cullen, di rector of nlans anrl l,.-ii,li. nuiiatua- tion, based his estimate of money nccas on an average service cost of one cent per diaper. That would provide for an estimated 14 million diaper changes annually. "The diaper service is a big business with us because the baby V business is a big business," the general told the House Appropria tions Committee. It's cheaper, the croipral to contract for diaper service thaii lor tne Air force to buy its own diapers, "have them rinsed and cared for by our attendants and ent to the commercial laundries." Cullen explained Ihp Air irnn,n diaper policy is response to ques tioning by Rep. Harry R. Shep- para lu-Lalif), who commented, "It seems to me that if vnu ran issue manuals on the care and feeding of dogs, you could arrange to instruct medical attendants the diaper routine. "If we are going into the diaper service, why not bibs?" asked Sheppard. "There was a factor in the early stages of our matrimon ial concept where good wives and assistants, members of the family, took care of the little idiosyncra sies oi tne cniid. "They still do." the cenpral rp plied, "but in the hnsnilal ihp babies are kept in the nursery ana attended by our trained at tendants." Once the baby leaves the hos pital, the free diaper service ends, but committee members said they got the impression a free diaper goes with each departure compli. nients of the Air Force.

What bothered the Street was the fact that new orders for all manufacturing companies fell by si Diinon $o00 million each in durable and nondurable goods. uniuiea orders on an tin adjusted basis showed a dprlino of $600 million, all in durahlp goods industries. ine Lensus Bureau in a spn. arate report said .lannarv taipe ol merchant wholesalers showed 13 per cent decline from Dp cember, a more than seasonal Irop.

Thpv hold that the ratio of sales to inven tories was more important and showed that this ratio was well below a year ago, the 1958-1959 high and the 1953-1954 high in all :ategories. On this basis thev held thai the inventory and sales figures were still on the .optimistic side with plenty of room for further changes before they would war rant a pessimistic attitude. Market men. It is admittpd. arp confused by the various intpr. pretations of currently available sialism's. It is pointed out that thp 83 fin decline from the intra-day high of Jan. 5 to the inlra.riav lnu of Feb. 17 in the industrials left many wounds that haven't healed as yet. There is a growing attitude in the Street that if the market needs more liquidation to bring it to a level where it can form sound base for a recoverv. "let's have it rieht now and ppl it over with." "If we are going to have an other spell of weakness in the stock market, bear in mind that the sooner it gets started thej sooner it will end." savs R K Thurlow of Winslow, Cohu & Stetson. "Current bases give upside ob jectives between 639 and 655, certainly not far above current levels," says Edmund W. Tahell of Walston & Co. "Cnnlinupri backing and filling in. rouehlv the 605-650 range could produce a much higher indication, how ever. While the outlook for business and industry is being more thor oughly appraised and analyzed and technicians and market fun damentalists are Irvine to esti. mate more clearly both the near and longer range price action of tne averages, stock groups and individual issues," says Kenneth Ward of Haydcn, Stone & Co., "caution will be the watchword of the 'general market. mis nealthv hesitation was partly reflected by sharply con tracting volume on the Drnfif taking, testing setback early last week and by the erratic per formance of the recoverv. Admittedly, there are individ ual areas of temporary uncer tainty, notably in the steel, paper and auto industries. Yet most major segments of the economy are stilt in pretty sound shape and should produce vprv satisfactory earnings."
