He discovers it first when he prices the
Cadillac of his choice. Invariably, he is sur

than the car he is currently driving.
And then, once his Cadillac is delivered into
his hands, he discovers how frugal it is with a
gallon of gasoline. He finds, as we said, that
full tank is sufficient for full days drive.
Next, he learns of Cadillac's extraordinary
dependability. In fact, it is sometimes necessary

Of a book in which the sentence

She is Emily Davie, whose PRO

highly regarded by the United

tion that it sent 29,811 copies of

member of the House Appropria-
tions Committee read the passage
from Thoreau and another from
a Eugene O'Neill play ~Ah
Wilderness") and decided they
might be misinterpreted"
abroad.
Request Withdrawn
Whereupon. Miss Davie said,
the USIA withdrew its request
for further appropriations for
"Profile of America" before a
House Appropriations subcom-
mittee even voted on it.
A USIA spokesman, who called
attention to the fact that the
agency withdrew its request for
further funds for the book on
March %, 13 days after the
hearings had been completed.
said that the "the overall effect
Of the book overseas was good"
Representative Bow. Republi-

House Critic of Thoreou
Gets USIA to Drop Book

But the two together might be
a damaging thing in the hands
of Russian propagandists that
could be used against U.S."
Said Miss Davie: IF such
treatment goes unchecked, the
USIA book program will have
been hopelessly crippled and no
writer in America is safe"
Chairman Rooney Of the
House Appropriations subcom-
mittee considering the request
said he thought Profile of
America" was "a fine book for
American consumption. But
when it comes to showing for
eigners what foul balls we are,
that is something different"
Miss Davie said $1,000 copies
were bought in America.
The book ran into a Senate
critic yesterday, too. Chairman
Kilgore of a Senate Appropria-
tions subcommittee took a dim
view of a picture Of a Negro
dance team.
This is not a typical Amer
lean dance. 1t is completely fan
tastic utterly vulgar /.
some wild-eyed extravaganza"
The couple in the picture were
jitterbugging.
Cites Schoolhouse Picture
Mr.. Bow said that a picture
of THE Little Red Schoolhouse,
1850" showed something we have
very few of left in this country"
II went to a little red school,
house myself and am very proud
of the fact, and there are pic
lures following which show fine
modern schools. But the Rus
slams could say we still go to
schools built in 1750.
IF you have studied Russian
propaganda it makes a clearer
picture. You will not find Rus
sia's propaganda showing bad
parts of their country"
Profile of America" has a
foreword by Charles A. Lind
bergh and an introduction by
Louis Bromfield. President Eli
senhower sent Miss Davie a let
ter thanking her for waving
royalties on the book as a pa
triotic duty.
