8 EDITOR'S is the first iu a six port scries dealing with tudmj's changing life styles and tlicir impact on tlie immediate future. Toddi, Vance Packard, social critic, and author, discusses our nomadic society. By KI TH F. FETTERLY Women's News Editor America's lifestyle may be changing but it's not going to the dogs as many critics seem to believe. It's just a question of new priorities and new goals and achieving them has become a whole new obstacle course to overcome.

AT THE CONCLUSION of a three day conference on "The Family and Home in Transition," sponsored bv Sears Roebuck and Co. at Port St. Lucie, the 123 invited members of the media who attended, left for home with the distinct impression that all is not wrong with our world. There are answers to some of our current problems and Americans will find them, according to various authorities, who spoke. MARRIAGE and the family will survive and probably get stronger.

The divorce rate should begin to decline. Housing will become peo-' pie related instead of- space related. Society will adapt to today's emerging layered living patterns talizing the cities and reducing the importance of the automobile. With women moving into the executive world in great numbers, he sees corporations considering mass transfers more carefully. To date corporate transfers have been large contributors to social fragmentation for several reasons.

First, if a wife fails to accompany her husband because of her job, there are many states where she can be found guilty of desertion. Second, the brunt of the many moves falls on the wife-and has produced a curious life style for these "gypsies" who must seek a standard home wherever they go where their furniture will fit and who buy things that will move, not what they like. In fact, according to Mr. Packard, there has been a drop in the need to acquire possessions. Many now rent furniture wherever they go.

The corporate families moved from one place to another tend to keep to themselves because they anticipate another move in their future very soon and they're all in the same boat. WHAT THEY REALLY need.is getting back to developing a sense of continuity in their lives and fewer transfers occasioned by the energy crisis may start things moving in that direction. (Tomorrow. Afarrtage and the family here to stay.) that divide the population ethnically, economically and by age (over 65. And over-all there's a tremendous education job to be done to dispel a myriad of myths that are being interpreted as truths about many of today's problems.

A case in point is the 10 per cent of the population that is now over 65. Although) 85 per cent of this number-are well, happy and leading normal lives, they are not considered the norm. The concept of Uie elderly as a problem to society has been shaped by reports from social workers and health agencies that deal only with those that are poor or ill. No one speaks for or is asked about the 85 per cent going about their business of living as usual. ALTHOUGH THE energy crisis was not a factor when the confer-, ence was planned it may very well provide the sharp shove that will put a lot of problems into perspective in a hurry.

Vance Packard, social critic and author of numerous best sellers including "The Hidden Persuaders." "The Status Seekers," and "The Naked Society," thinks the energy crisis may save the family. Mr. Packard says the rest of the world considers Americans as whirling dervishes. The average. American moves 14 times in his life and the corporate gypsies, as he Clubs, on the majorette squad and on the yearbook staff.
