Optional Redemption.
The Company may at its option elect to redeem the Notes in whole
on June 26, 1998 or on any Interest Payment Date 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.
Certain Investment Considerations:
Prospective purchasers of the Notes should be aware that the
Notes will pay interest at different fixed rates each year
through the Maturity Date unless earlier redeemed by the
Company. Prospective purchasers should also be aware that the
Company has the option to redeem the Notes on any Optional
Redemption Date and will be likely to elect to redeem the Notes
in the event prevailing market interest rates are lower than the
then-Current interest rate on the Notes.

Additional Information:
General.
At March 29, 1997, the Company had outstanding indebtedness
totalling $119.663 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 March 29, 1997 excluding subordinated notes
payable after one year was equal to $118.966 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 31, Three Months Ended
1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 March 29, 1997
1.44 1.62 1.63 1.51 1.53 1.56
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.

paragraph of text under the caption "Documents Incorporated by

hereby incorporated in the Prospectus by reference the Company's

and the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended March 29, 1997 heretofore filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to the 1934 Act to which reference is
hereby made.

"Underwriter"), as principal, at the Issue Price of 100.00% of
