Postmaster General-to-be read
q book about his new job In
his spare time yesterday.
A little thing, maybe, but a
clue to what has made j. Ed
ward Day a successful business
executive at IS with plenty of
time to spare for a wide variety
Of civic activities.
A telephone call from Sena-
tor Kennedy to his Los Angeles
(Calif.) home at 1880 o'clock
Thursday night sent him
scurrying by Jet plane to WASH
ington.
With just an hours sleep
aboard the jet, he received
several callers in his Washing
ton hotel room. One gave him
q copy Of Postmaster General
Summerfield's book ~. s.
Mail-The Story of the United
States Postal Service"
Finished Reading Book
Mr.. Day said he finished
reading the book in his spare
time in Washington before
flying with Senator Kennedy
last night to Palm Beach,
where his cabinet appointment
was announced today.
One Of the first things Mr..
Day did after moving into a
room in the Palm Beach Tow
ers Hotel last night was to
make a long-distance tele-
phone call canceling plans for
him and his wife to 60 on a
trip to Europe with another
couple next April. He figured
he would be too busy all spring
getting on top Of his new job
to think about any vacation.
Mr.. Day started his working
life as q lawyer in Chicago be-
fore World War II. After IS
months active duty In the
Navy during the war, he be-
came q law partner Of Adlai
Stevenson.
When Mr.. Stevenson became
Governor Of Illinois in 1850,
Mr.. Day went to the State
Capitol with him as his legis-
lative and legal assistant. Then
Gov. Stevenson made him
State insurance commissioner.
Active in Civic Work
He spent four years in Pru-
dential's corporate headquar-
tiers in Newark, N. j., in the
legal department. For the last
four years he has been vice
president in charge Of Pruden-
tial's Western operations, with
jurisdiction over 13 Western
States and $500 employees.
In his four years In Los An
geles he has found time to
become active in some 80 civic
and political organizations -
such as vice chairman Of Cali
fornia Gov. Edmund @. Browns
Commission on Metropolitan
Problems, q member Of the
Governors Business Advisory
Council, treasurer Of Q success
full campaign for q State water
bond issue last month, vice
president Of the Los Angeles
United Givers and vice preSi-
dent Of the Los Angeles YMCA,
His formula for making the
most Of the minutes In the day:
Work fast. delegate as much
work as possible. Learn to dis
tinguish the mountains from
the molehills. Have perspective.
Never worry about yesterdays
decisions"
Only one thing worries him,
he says jocularly, about joining
the Kennedy administration
he isn't the touch football
playing type. They'd ruin
me-" he chuckles. He hasn't
gone in for strenuous athletics
since he broke his back skiing
several years ago.
Served I'm Navy
Like Senator Kennedy, Mr..
Day did part of his wartime
Navy duty in the South Pa
cific. He commanded a sub
marine chaser. He left the
Navy. in 1945 with the rank of
lieutenant.
He was a Kennedy delegate
from California at the Demo-
cratic Convention in Los An
geles.

Secretary of Commerce Muel-

dropped to $19.5 million in

The level of exports to that
area nevertheless was high by

Mr.. Mueller added.
For the first nine months OF

were higher than in the COM
