Presidential recollections go on and on. Last week the Washington Post and Times Herald drew some lively ones from old (70) Headwaiter William Reid, long the Pullman Co.'s major-domo in charge of private railway cars for the White House and State Department. Reid's bipartisan White House favorites: Harry Truman and Grace Coolidge. Of Harry: "He got up every morning at 6, and we'd stop the train so he could take his walk." Of Gourmand Warren Gamaliel Harding: "He'd eat anything." Of Calvin Coolidge: "He never used to say much, except when...
...county daily circulation of about 8,800, turns in a tidy annual profit for its owners and co-editors, L. Mitchell White and his son, Robert Mitchell White II.

Even making allowances for statistical overenthusiasm, the U.N. still estimated that the increase in national product "seems to have been of the order of 50%." While the U.S. gross national product dropped nearly i%, according to the figures, China's national product...
...animosity toward Nixon harbored by his opponents has long been bitter and somewhat mystifying. In this biography, already distinguished for having drawn the wrath of Chief Justice Earl Warren (see NATIONAL AFFAIRS), New York Herald Tribune Reporter Earl Mazo recalls that when Nixon gave the 1954 commencement address at Whittier College, two separate receiving lines were necessary-for those who were ready to shake Nixon's hand and for those who refused to. This book, which is basically friendly toward Nixon, may switch some readers from the non-handshaking to the handshaking column. But most of all, what...
