Doug Dillon, trim (6 ft. 1 in., 188 Ibs.) but beginning to fringe on top at age 49, last year nailed down a top place in Ike's regard. As Under Secretary of State for Economic Affairs, hardworking, soft-selling Dillon earned a major share of the credit for steering reciprocal trade and foreign aid through a bullheadedly balky Congress. Perhaps the most popular of all-State Department officials on Capitol Hill, Dillon is especially friendly with Arkansas Democrat William Fulbright, new chairman of the powerful Senate Foreign Relations Committee...

P-B instituted group life insurance in 1928, profit-sharing for all employees in 1936 (current share: 6½%; of base pay), health insurance in 1941, noncontributory pensions in 1948. P-B has never had a strike, and the last attempt to unionize the company was snowed under 2 to 1 back in 1946. But Pitney-Bowes does have an elaborate parliament of workers, supervisors and brass who meet regularly and publicly discuss everything from the cafeteria's coffee (pretty good) to wages (above average...
