Domestic revenues for both the three month and six month periods ended June 30,
1995 grew primarily due to new product introductions and increased marketing at
Miller along with volume growth in non-residential construction businesses.
Operating income increased during the same time periods due to the volume
growth at Miller and the construction businesses.  Margins were flat for the
three month period due to a slower rate of growth in the automotive and
residential construction businesses.  Miller also moderated margin growth for
the second quarter of 1995 compared with last year due to the absorption of raw
material price increases.  Margins increased year-to-date in 1995 as a result
of increased volume at Miller and the construction businesses along with new
product introductions at Miller.

International revenues increased for the three month period primarily due to
increase a volume in the European automotive businesses as a result of
increased penetration in the European automotive markets.  The European auto-
motive businesses, followed by the European construction businesses, largely
contributed to the year-to date revenue growth.  For the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1995, operating income and margins increased due to cost
reductions in the European construction businesses and volume gains in the
European automotive businesses.

Strong demand for industrial packaging products and increased penetration in
the beverage markets for the consumer packaging businesses led to an increase
in domestic revenues and operating income for the three month period and
year-to- date ended June 30, 1995.  Margins increased for the same time periods
due mostly to new product introductions in the industrial packaging businesses.

International revenues and operating income for the quarter ended
June 30, 1995 increased due to the consumer and industrial packaging busines-
ses. For the  six month period revenues and operating income increased due to
the previously mentioned groups as well as the finishing systems businesses.
Margins increased for both periods because of new product introductions, and
cost reductions in the industrial packaging businesses.  In addition, cost
reductions in the finishing systems businesses led to increased margins for
the both periods.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating costs as a percentage of revenues decreased to 65.5% in the first
half of 1995 versus 66.8% in the first half of 1994. Selling, administrative,
and research and development expenses were 18.4% of revenues in the first half
of 1995 versus 19.1% in the first half of 1994.  These ratios were lower
because of cost reductions as a result of a Company-wide objective to reduce
costs.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense declined to $14.1 million in the first half of 1995 from $14.7
million in the first half of 1994, primarily due to a reduction in commercial
paper borrowings outstanding.

OTHER EXPENSE

Other expense decreased to $.4 million in the second quarter of 1995 from $7.3
million in the second quarter of 1994.  The decrease in expense is primarily
due to a reduction in nonrecurring costs unrelated to operations, along with an
increase in interest income and income from investment properties, partially
offset by a decrease in the gain on sale of operations and affiliates.

NET INCOME

Net income of $181.3 million ($1.55 per share) in the first half of 1995 was
49.0% higher than the 1994 first half net income of $121.6 million ($1.07 per
share).  Foreign currency had no material impact on earnings in the first half
of 1995 versus 1994.

The increase in trade receivables in the second quarter of 1995 was primarily
due to acquisitions and stronger revenues in the second quarter of 1995 versus
the fourth quarter of 1994.  Second quarter acquisitions combined with overall
business growth contributed to the increase in inventories from year-end 1994
to second quarter 1995.  The increase in short-term debt was mainly due to
additional borrowing of commercial paper to fund second quarter acquisitions.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased at June 30, 1995 versus
year-end 1994 as a result of overall business growth and acquisitions.
