Attention: Parking<br />

Garage Speeders<br />

Several employees<br />

have recently reported<br />

“close calls” in the<br />

parking garages when<br />

they, as pedestrians,<br />

have been nearly run<br />

down by cars traveling<br />

too fast. All employees<br />

are urged to slow<br />

down and be alert to<br />

pedestrians. Your live<br />

could depend on it!<br />

Drive carefully, please.<br />

International goodwill<br />

Recently, three law students from the People’s<br />

Republic of China, who are studying in the<br />

United States, visited <strong>GE</strong> Capital headquarters to<br />

learn more about American finance.<br />

The students, Dong Jing, Li Li, and Deng Jing,<br />

discovered great differences in the two systems, as<br />

Newsletter Back Pages 251.09<br />

The design of the back page is as important as<br />

that of the first page. The back cover can become<br />

the cover when the newsletter is lying on a desk.<br />

Thus, it is important to carry important stories on<br />

the back page and make the layout as inviting as<br />

possible.<br />

one would expect, since the government controls<br />

business in China. But they all agreed that their<br />

country was changing every day and becoming<br />

more Westernized and open to new ideas, especially<br />

the private ownership of business.<br />

The students were particularly fascinated with<br />

the notion of credit in this country, since consumers<br />

cannot buy on credit in China. They also<br />

admired the flexibility and autonomy of American<br />

business.<br />

But while the two countries are miles apart<br />

geographically, culturally and politically, there<br />

are some things that are universal – and <strong>GE</strong> is<br />

one of them. All three students, who spoke<br />

excellent English and French, agreed that the<br />

Company was well known in China.<br />
