     Accrued interest on the Notes for each Interest Period (other

     the number of days in such Period divided by 360 (the number of

     360 days consisting of twelve 30-day months).  As a result, the
     amount payable on each Interest Payment Date (other than the
     Interest Payment Date with respect to the Final Interest Period
     occurring on the Maturity Date) will remain constant
     irrespective of the actual number of days that have elapsed
     since the preceding Interest Payment Date.  Accrued interest on
     the Notes for the Final Interest Period shall be claculated as
     described in the Prospectus Supplement under the caption
     "Interest and Interest Rates--Fixed Rate Notes."

     Optional Redemption.

     The Company may at its option elect to redeem the Notes in whole
     on September 24, 1997 or on any Interest Payment Date occurring
     in September or March, thereafter (each such date, an "Optional
     Redemption Date") at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued
     interest to but excluding the date of redemption (the
     "Redemption Date").  In the event the Company elects to redeem
     the Notes, notice will be given to registered holders not more
     than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the Redemption Date.

     Certain Covenants of the Company.

     As of August 1, 1996, the Company entered into a supplemental
     indenture with The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee, eliminating
     the covenants of the Company described in the Prospectus under
     the caption "Certain Covenants of the Company".  Consequently,
     the information under such caption is not applicable to the
     Notes.

Additional Information:

     General.

     At June 29, 1996, the Company had outstanding indebtedness
     totalling $112.517 billion, consisting of notes payable within
     one year, senior notes payable after one year and subordinated
     notes payable after one year.  The total amount of outstanding
     indebtedness at June 29, 1996 excluding subordinated notes
     payable after one year was equal to $111.820 billion.

     Consolidated Ratio of Earning to Fixed Charges.

     The information contained in the Prospectus under the caption
     "Consolidated Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges" is hereby
     amended in its entirety, as follows:


                      Year Ended December                    Six Months Ended 
         1991     1992     1993     1994      1995             June 29, 1996

         1.34     1.44     1.62     1.63      1.51                 1.52

     For purposes of computing the consolidated ratio of earnings to
     fixed charges, earnings consist of net earnings adjusted for the
     provision for income taxes, minority interest and fixed charges. 
     Fixed charges consist of interest and discount on all
     indebtedness and one-third of rentals, which the Company
     believes is a reasonable approximation of the interest factor of
     such rentals.
