hotel to the House Chamber,
only to find the room empty.
The session yesterday after
noon lasted a total of 23 min
utes. According to veteran law
makers, this was the shortest
session in history. It beat the
past record of 30 minutes set

critical acclaim there, is concerned
with a man’s search to learn what
he is and how he came to be
that way.

Fabulous steps into the future, such as this,
can be made only by men with fabulous
imaginations. A lot of such men work for
General Motors and its divisions. There’s
room for a lot more—maybe you. .
In addition to research in the automotive
and appliance fields, General Motors and its
divisions are concerned with solar energy,
astronautics, astrodynamics, electronics, and
many fields of space engineering. If these
areas of scientific study challenge your
imagination, perhaps GM has a place for you
at one of its plants in 71 cities.
Here is a real opportunity to put your
imagination to work on everything from tiny
transistors to dynamic diesels.
