Comment On and That By HARMAN W. NICHOLS Unitrt Piwi FmIvm Writw JMJ - Washington -U.R) It's quite a job to go through your card case and fish out the things you may never need. : .... Cards like one "dedicat ed to the .pres ervation and use of cloudy crystal balls." My card says I am president of the "Clear and Opaque Club Fact that everybody else who Is a member is a presi dent too, is beside the point. ' -And few people, I suppose, have been honored by getting a card that starts out like mine 1 does with "Know, ye by these -presents that H. W. N. has been . elected to honorary membership in Cigar Smokers United, dedi cated to protect the inalienable .rights of cigar smokers every - where." .: . : ' Makes a man wish he liked cigars. That particular card was Herman Nichols Price Differential In Grades of Milk OKd by Commiffee ' Salem U.R) A bill to '' in ' crease the price differential be tween top and second grades of - milk and cream won approval in -, the House Foods and Dairy Com mittee yesterday and was sent ; to the floor for final vote. Committee members said they - thought the 1 present differential of price to producers "between grades was too. small to encour age production of premium quality milk and cream. Rep. Elmer Deeiz, Canby. Re publican, said such a law would go far toward eliminating infer- . lor grades of milk and cream.. - - The committee also approved by unanimous vote a bill to exempt persons owning one cow or three goats from provisions of grade and standard require ments for the quality; of fluid milk. Rep.-Joe Rogers of Inde pendence said passage of the bill would merely legalize a common . practice. -, ry ' Minimum Price Bill Due Rogers told the committee he . planned to introduce within a few days a bill to establish a minimum price paid to produc ers of grade A milk and to pro vide a rigid auditing plan. If ap proved, the bill would give a uniform payout to producers and : would set up distributor pools. Congress To Hear Haitian President ' Washington (U.R) President Paul E. Magloire of Haiti goes . before , a joint session of Con gress today to thank the United States for help it has given his Caribbean nation. He was scheduled to tell Con gress that the helping hand the United . States has extended . to Haiti and other American na tions is the chief reason. Com munism has failed to gain a foot i hold in the Western Hemisphere. . Magloire, who arrived here on Wednesday for a three-day visit, also planned to see Washington area landmarks and confer with Secretary of: State John Foster Dulles. - . , . Magloire,' , the first foreign dignitary to arrive for an offi cial visit this year, was invited by President Eisenhower. His visit is billed only as a "good ; will" mission, but he is expected to sign a military assistance agreement with the - United , .States before departing Satur day to tour part of the nation. signed by my friend Maurice C. ureicer, wao nas spent - more time searching the world for the perfect steak and martini than sucking the wet end of a cigar. And here goes one to certify that "Bro. H. W. N. is a full fledged member ;of the 'Ugly Mug' Lodge." That is a carrying card from Kahn's Cocktail Bar at Cape May, N. J. I have been told, although I have never seen it, that a mug with my name on it . in gold hangs by a silver string from the ceiling in the joint along with hundreds of others. One from the Anteaters Asso ciation I must keep because dur ing the fall months we gather at the : Washington Zoo and , Dr. William M. Mann serves up ev erything delicious from antelope to buff alo to rattlesnake at won derful luncheons. - . Another card entitles; me; to dip where angels of the male sex fear to tread- in the all-gal swimming pool at the Meridian Hill Hotel here in Washington President Eisenhower and - V.P. Nixon also are card bearers and they are scared, too. . It. seems, in looking things over, that I also am a member of the order of "Yellow Dogs," the fun club of the Department of Commerce. I started out as a "puppy" and graduated after a rather hectic initiation. -; . " There is also ;a little, card calling me a White House corres pondent. T It won't get you in the White House without a special come on from the big house guards, but the guards at least will say "howdy." It is something to keep anyhow Maybe it will get you out of a parking ticket in Yuma. Chicago U.R) A distinguish ed attorney's fight to get out of Chicago's tawdry skid row was giving a boost today to every bum on the city's "mile of misery.";"- 7- q - ' - Public interest In the case of William G.
