company that every housewife or woman head of a family in the metropolitan area will be interviewed within the next few weeks. Never Attempted Before Such a comprehensive inquiry never has been attempted before, it is said. The Indianapolis inquiry is a phase of a national consumer research covering 1.200 communities and involving personal interviews with 11.000.000 housewives. Directory officials assert the information obtained In the study eventaally should be reflected in increased efficiency in merchandise distribution. It was pointed out that a few months ago a nationally known telephone executive disclosed that during the dinner-hour broadcast of a certain radio feature, telephone calls slumped 85 per cent. Auto Data Sought It is expected that the Indianapolis survey wll reveal a staggering number of hours in the aggregate devoted daily to their radios by Indianapolis people. Likewise, it is a purpose of the study to disclose whether the Indianapolis citizen is driving a used car, and how old that car was when he bought it. The citizen will be asked whether he has a preference for certain gasolines, motor oils and tires.
