recipients whose rent is out of

Welfare recipients pay rent
based on the cost of the housing,
it was pointed out. while others
pay graded rent" in accord

1t was suggested that such a
meeting might bring to Con-

funds and restrictions that affect
welfare recipients.

is head of the Real Estate Brok-
ers Digest Service Co.
He advised the Washington
real estate group to use more
Lselective advertising, that is to
select those homes for adver-
Using that are best suited for
such purposes.
"The old idea is that you
advertise every house you have
listed" he said. But not every
house is the kind that brings
response. Spend your money on
the house that will make the
phone ring and you will sell the
others on the responses you get
from the ads you do run"
Mr.. Smith said it is impor-
tant for the real estate sales
man to find out from a prospec-
tive buyer answering an adver-
tisement what the buyer wants.
"As soon as the caller finds
out that the house he is calling
about doesn't have what he
wants. he's gone" said Mr..
Smith. THE salesman has to
find out before this happens
what the prospective buyer
wants."

U. S. to Air Fraud
On Nickel Priorities
By the Assoclated Preaa

F"~E1~H'"NN
The Commerce Department has
announced 1t is investigating
more than 20 cases OF alleged
illegal use Of military priority
ratings to acquire scarce nickel.
The departments Business and
Defense Services Administration
reported that some manufac-
turers have been using priorities
to fill defense orders" they did
not have and other firms have
padded the amount Of nickel re-
ported necessary to meet their
defense production.
In some cases. according to
Administrator H. B. Mccoy, COM
panies which did not use nickel
at all presented false priority
ratings to obtain nickel for the
black market.
The Commerce officials said
the amount Of nickel involved in
the cases under scrutiny is only
"a minute proportion" Of the
amount actually needed for de-
Tense production, but the agency
is determined to stamp out any
illegal use OF the defense priority
ratings.

Whitney Invites
British to Consult
On Major Issues

LONDON. June 5 (P.-United
States Ambassador John Hay
Whitney told a British audience
last night that after the shock
Of Suez it is more important
than ever that we consult to-
gether on major issues"
The ambassador brought up
the Suez question at a white tie
banquet Of the English Speak
ing Union. His statement was
applauded.
The British and French attack
on Suez without consulting the
United States put a severe strain
on United States British rela-
tons. The United States OPP
posed the invasion.
This was Mr.. Whitney's first
public appearance since taking
up his post in February. Prince
Philip. husband of Queen Eliza
beth II. presided and extended a
warm welcome.
Mr. Whitney said the prin-
ciple of mutual consultation APP
plies to all members of the At
lantic alliance.
I'm NATO itself we have built
a common front on the most
serious political issues facing
Western Europe" he said.
But the record Of consulta-
ton among Atlantic community
nations with respect to their
policies and actions which affect
other parts of the world is not
so clear.
When nations feel their own
interests greatly at stake, the
matter Of consultation with
others becomes at once more diff
f1cult and more urgent.
I'VE cannot afford to let any
past failure deter us from striv-
ing to develop within ourselves
a stronger sense Of common in
terest."
