If you ask him why, he may well reply "so much seems so That's easy to understand because Swedes have the reputation of being the "most people in Europe. So much is done in the American way. They live in a modern, even ultramodern, style, surrounded by gadgets. Self-service stores, dispensers and supermarkets rapidly are replacing the little shops, their around clothes the off corner.

the They hook and they go for frozen dinners. Above all, an American has little difficulty in getting around. English is the second language. And judged by the usual yardsticks for standard of living, Sweden more often than not ranks second only to the United States. It leads Europe, for example, in the numbers of cars, telephones, television sets, washing machines and freezers per thousand inhabitants.

But there are differences, and the longer one stays in Sweden, the more apparent they become. Like the United States, Sweden is prosperous. The national per capita income, tops in Europe, was $3,695 1970 com. pared with $4,274 in the United But it wasn't always so. During the latter half the 19th century and until World War more than a million Swedes fled the poverty of Sweden.

then mainly an agricultural society, and emigrated to America. As a result of the industrial revolution, which came late to Sweden but took hold very fast, the countrys' people are in the main a rather uniform middle class of industrial workers, clerks and small tradesmen. In the 40 years from 1930, the percentage of the labor force engaged in agriculture has. dropped from 36 per cent to only 7 per cent. Swedish society is 1 more homogeneous than the American.

Only 400,000 foreigners live among the eight million Swedes. Consequently, it is not a melting pot subject to all the racial and social strains typical of America. Unlike the outgoing ways of the American, the Swede tends to build a fence around himself, and he is stiff and reserved toward strangers. Inflation is an old story to the Swede prices have risen about 60 per cent over the last 10 years and prices are a shock even to visiting Americans with their own problems of high priced beef and shortages. There are no food shortages in Sweden except as they are dictated by a household's budget.

A pound of filet mignon costs from $7 to $9, ground beef about $2.50 and pork chops around $3 a pound. So it's no wonder that pea soup, baloney sausage, blood pudding and potatoes with herring have become Sweden's national dishes. With American bourbon priced at $17 a fifth, scotch at $14 and gin at $13, many a Swede simply can't afford spir-3 its. Sale of spirits and wines is a state monopoly and the national policy is 10. wean the Swede away from hard drinking to the wines which are not so highly taxed.

But perhaps the most significant difference at all between the American and Swedish way of life is that Sweden above all is a -thoroughly socialized country perhaps the most ad. vanced in this respect in the world. And that means high taxes. Finance. Minister Gunnar has boasted that Sweden leads the international league in taxes.

The average male industrial worker earns an annual gross income of between $6,750 and $7,500. But his take-home pay is much lower. A married couple with an annual 1972 income of $6,000 would have to pay. out around 30 per cent in direct taxes and on an income double. that around 46 per cent.

Another 17 per cent goes in indirect. taxes on all consumer goods including food. But the Swede, of course, gets back part of the tax in the course of his life through the state's elaborate welfare scheme a basic pension, health insurance, child allowances, housing grants and educational subsidies. -Sylvia PorterAuto Protection NEW YORK The summer vacation stampede is now rushing toward its Labor Day climax with tens of millions of you driving out of state or into Canada and, as a result, millions of you also becoming involved in auto accidents, minor, or major, far away from home. This being a certainty, it is important for you to know that new auto insurance coverage is now available to you FREE OF CHARGE which will: (1) Meet the specific no-fault requirements of other states or the Canadian provinces (19 states now have some form of no-fault law).

(2) Meet the financial sibility laws which differ in each state and Canadian province. These laws require drivers involved in auto accidents to furnish proof of financial responsibility (usually done in the form of auto liability insurance) up to specified amounts but the problem is that the amounts differ from state to state and between provinces. If you are planning to drive out of state, check at once with your insurance agent to make sure your auto policy meets the requirements of other areas. Most of the nation's auto insurers will give you free of charge a special out-of-state endorsement which extends your present insurance policy to provide the kind and amount of protection you need. For instance, say you drive into a state or Canadian prov.

ince which requires you to have no-fault protection. States which have enacted some form of no-fault benefits include: Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii. Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, nesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas, Utah and Virginia. No-fault simply means that you collect from your own insurance for certain medical company and economic losses regardless of who was to blame for the accident. The special out of state endorsement would make you eligible immediately.

for no-fault benefits. Or say your special out of state endorsement adjusts your policy to comply with state fin ancial responsibility laws.

Particular Thieves Hit Pharmacy Barbituates and tranquilizers were stolen from the Morton Medical Building, 1630 North Jefferson sometime during the night by burglars who knew what they wanted, police said today. The burglary, discovered at 4:07 a.m., was reported when a broken window to one of the doctor's offices in the building was found. Pharmacist Bill Tillotson was called by police to open the pharmacy and more than 6500 tablets of valium, librium, Secnal and Tuinal were reported missing. The thieves were selective in their loot, police said, taking only the bottles they wanted and leaving behind no mess and lots of other more easily obtainable drugs.

The. robbers broke a window in the offices of a doctor and went down the hall to the pharmacy. Also taken in the breakin was about $150 in small bills and change. A quantity of tools and about $20 in change from a vending machine, were stolen from Bollinger's. Phillips 66 service station, 1933 South National.

Burglars also ripped a pay phone off the wall and took it with them and stole four mag wheels and tires, valued at $280. At the Milgram's Supermarket at 2525 West Division, two young thieves were interrupted in their attempts to rob the store when two Frisco Railway workers working across the street saw one young man standing outside the store catching boxes thrown out a broken window to him. About 15 cartons of cigarettes were taken from the store, but were abandoned in the alley when the two robbers fled the scene after noticing the two Frisco men watching them. Entry was gained to the store by breaking the window.

These are the broad principles of fault, and within them, the individual state laws take various forms each state writing in provisions to meet its specific circumstances. Because of these variations and because many states have not yet passed no-fault legislation, there is no disputing your need for the new protection if you are driving from one state to another. More than 500 insurance companies have adopted the new insurance coverage plan SO far, and the AMIA says that by itself competition within the industry will force the holdouts to go along. Use the protection.

Check up on it at once. It's free. 1:00 STOCKS minimum, amounts of $20.000 per accident. In contrast, the financial responsibility laws in states such as California, Ohio, Maine and Florida require that your lability insurance policy be as high as $40.000. In Canada, the requirements go up to $50,000.

With the new endorsement, you are covered for the required amount no matter what state or Canadian province your automobile accident takes place in. A surprisingly large 42 per cent of the U.S. population is now covered by no-fault auto insurance benefits, estimates the American Mutual Insurance Alliance, a national trade group, and the AMIA predicts that this figure could jump to 80 per cent by the end of next year. Under the no-fault system, if you are the injured party, you look to your own insurance company for compensation of basic medical expenses and losses in wages, regardless of who caused the accident. Because fault does not have to be decided prior to payments, money for your doctor and hospital bills, as well as for your living expenses, is immediately available.

In addition, most of the 19 state no-fault benefit laws contain clauses to curb overpayment of minor claims by prohibiting lawsuits for "pain and suffering" unless the injury is serious.
