ALL-PURPOSE VEHICLE
Station Wagon Rises
In Popular Appeal

DETROIT (AP). - One day |
last summer a wagon train set
out on a trek west from De-
troit.
AS in days of old there were
families with children, dogs, a
wagon boss. But these were
modern day wagons - gleam-
ing station wagons which have
become the true multi-purpose
automobile of the SOS.
The auto companies talk of
the increasing diversification of
cars with more sizes, shapes and
body styles than ever before.
All this is true. But the station
wagons continuing popularity
seems to stem from it's ability
to serve variety of uses.
The station wagon of today
is a far cry from its ancestors
which were used to haul pas
sengers from railroad stations
to a few fancy resorts. Styling
is as up-to- o-the-minute. or more
so, as any other body type. And
mechanical components some
times are more durable on the
wagons than on standard pas
senger cars.
Trend Continues
From a bare 2 per cent of all
car sales in 1850 station wag-
ons doomed to 16 per cent by
1860. And the trend is contin-
uing.
The advent of compact cars
from the Big Three manufac-
turers caused temporary dip
in station wagon sales but only
because the compacts did not
come up with the wagons un-
til some months after they first
came on the market.
But in 1861 the 10 compactS
were devoting almost Is per
cent of all their production to
station wagon models.
One auto executive compares
the station wagon to the basic
black dress in a woman's ward
robe - it can go anywhere. BY
now wagons are common sights
at country clubs, churches and
on busy city streets whereas in
their early days they were rel
egated mainly to work roles.
Easier To Handle
With the rise in popularity
of the wagon, manufacturers
have been paying increasing
attention to improving the ride
and handling of this particular
body style. The 1862 models,
loaded with a wide range of
power accessories, are as easy
to drive and ride as luxury Sc
dams.
Several factors have been
credited with the boom. Two of
the most common are the pop
ulation rush to the suburbs and
! the increased size of American
families.
Suburban life is synonymous
with trips to the shopping CEN
ter, nursery school, PTA meet
ings and recreation spots. The
wagon has proved ideal.
Evening star., 1962-01-09

Expanding families obviously
need more room in a car. Wag-
ons, many of them equipped
with three seats, seem an i'm
mediate answer.
Station wagons in one form
or another have been around
since 1902. In 1929 Ford began
production of modern (for the
period wooden bodies at a
plant in Upper Michigan. The
introduction of all steel con-
struction in 1852 sparked the
rapid rise of the sos.
Some Like Wood Effect
Ford still likes the effect of
wood and dresses the luxury
versions Of its wagons-big and

Senators Rap
NAT0 Faults,
Vote Aid Bill
By the Associated Press

The Senate Foreign Relations
Committee complained yester-
day of what it called painfully
visible" deficiencies in the
North Atlantic Treaty organi-
zation.
1t did so in recommending
Senate passage next week Of a
s4.662. 100000 foreign aid bill.
Debate will start next Tues
day on the measure, which fixes
ceilings and terms of the for
eign aid program for the fiscal
year starting July 1. A later
appropriation bill will provide
actual money.
The formal report estimated
military assistance for NATO
would cost abut 1914 million in
the fiscal year starting July /,
but said, "Only moderately en-
couraging is the performance
of certain NATO members in
meeting their military commit
Iments."
The committee, Of which
Senator Fulbright, Democrat of
Arkansas, is chairman, an
nounced it plans a later review
of the scope and complexity
of the NATO problem, as well
as the manner in which the
executive branch is coping
with it."
The report mentioned what
it called the problem Of de-
veloping common NATO po-
sitions on the critical military
and political questions" and
added at another point:
"At present the organization
is not sufficiently geared to the
requirements Of the alliance.
On both sides Of the Atlantic
there is an understandably
compelling interest, If not fas-
cination, in the expanding
economic interdependence of
the Atlantic community.
However. the political and
military relationships of the
NATO members are failing to
evolve and are tagging we'll be-
hind these rapidly maturing
economic relationships"
Now would be a good time,
the committee said, for the
United States to inspire struc-
tural and policy alterations.
Failure to do so may deepen
the division between Washing
ton and other NATO capitals
on such critical questions as
nuclear weapons, arms, control
and Berlin" it added.
The report. among other
things, defended continuation
Of limited economic assistance

member of the Sino-Soviet bloc

Agriculture is another field

a unclear war;"
The schools in engineering

1T Is generally acknowl-
edged" DR.. Andrews said,
that any space ships going
beyond the moon probably will
be nuclear-powered. ...
"The physics department

guidance systems. We know
now that radiation throws
transistors out of kilter.

A Senate subcommittee is
tackling the problem Of de-
veloping the ablest and most
promising Federal employees as
career generalists to fill a va
riety of important Government
jobs relating to the national
security.
Undertaking the project is
the Subcommittee on National
Security Stating and Opera
tions, a unit of the Senate Gov
ernment Operations Commit
tee. 1t is headed by Senator
Jackson, Democrat of Wash
ington, who was chairman of
the National Policy Machinery
Subcommittee which won high
praise for pinpointing various
problems facing the Govern
ment in stating national Sc
curity jobs.
The new subcommittee ac-
tually is a continuation Of the
work of the previous group. and
will delve into the ways the
Government can establish q
program that will develop ca
reer employees into generalistS
who could be assigned to a
variety Of duties as the oc-
casion arises.
Its inquiries will embrace the
Defense and State Depart
ments, the Agency for Interna-
tional Development and related
agencies as well as inter-agency
problems in the national secur-
ity field. 1t will not deal direct
ly with the Central Intelligence
Agency and the National Sc
curity Agency, since these come
within the province of the
Senate Armed Services Com
mittee.
Senator Jackson said it was
essential in these times, when
more and more of the Govern
ment's activities are concerned
with national security matters
for the Government to develop
a program of career planning
and development in the ma
tional security area.

DR.. Warren M. Andrews, who
will direct the center when it
opens in the fall Of 1853, won't

Of exotic vegetables, miracle
drugs or -than-perfect
detergents.
But he doesn't discount the
possibilities, either.
Enter Nuclear Age
I'VE are Just entering the
nuclear age" he said. THE
possibilities are fantastic"
There is nothing new about
a university getting into nu-
clear research. That has been
going on ever since the subject
came off the Governments
top-secret list in 1854.
But the Auburn center will
be different. Other universities
have concentrated on nuclear
engineering and production of
power; the facilities here will
be available to all interested
departments on the campus.
The 81 million-plus center
will provide classrooms and lab
ratory space for Auburn's
Schools of Agriculture, Veter-
mary Medicine, Pharmacy
Home Economics, Engineering,
Physics and Chemistry.
These facilities will be in
wings leading off a nuclear re-
actor. The center is designed
so more wings can be added.
Home economics isn't a field
you ordinarily think of In con-
nection with nuclear research.
New and Better Ways

new and better ways to pas
teurize and preserve food" said

old.

THE GSA preferred wording

tained before signs designating
shelter areas could be placed
on building exteriors. At the
time of the staff survey Fine

gave blanket approval to shell
ter-sign posting in the Dis
trict."
In its 94-page printed report,
eighth in a series since 1855

tee described the administra-
tion's program for fallout
