Ubiquitous Atom: General Electric's
educational "comic book" Adventures Inside
the Atom, recently translated into
Urdu and Arabic, has made its debut in
Pakistan and the Middle East, through the
auspices of the U.S. Information Agency.
The popular pamphlet-some 8.7 million
copies distributed in the U.S.-is available
in six other lands, scheduled for Turkey,
Indonesia, and Portugal. The Company
has granted free reproduction rights
for overseas publication, through such
agencies as USIA and the United Nations
Educational, Scientific & Cultural Organization
(UNESCO). In the photo below,
Atom makes a hit- in three languages with
U.N. guides in New York: (from

India's Mrs. Ratna Jhangiani with
Urdu translation, and Afghanistan's
