DOVER AGAIN RIPS EW DEAL POLICIES
Appears at G. 0. P. Rally With - Hamilton.
By United Press SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 14.pHer- | bert Hoover, only living former President, slipped back into the sil< ences of San Juan Hill on Stanford University’s campus today, leaving the political world guessing whether his brief appearance last night in the presidential campaign would be his last. The crowd that filled San I'rancisco’s Memorial Opera House last
night was as anxious to applaud Hoover as it was the speaker of the evening, John D. M. Hamilton, the red-haired Republican national chairman. The present campaign, Mr. Hoover said, is not a contest between two parties but between two philosophies of government. “It is a conflict between those who believe in the American safeguards of ordered liberty and those who believe in New Deal collectivisn.,” he declared. “We have seen the continuous weakening of’ the safeguards of self government by Federal centralization and greed for power. We have seen ‘the rise of personal government, We have seen the growth of a swarming bureaucracy. “We have seen Congress reduced from proud independence to a flock of ‘must’ sheep. We have seen the Constitution violated a dozen times. ‘We have seen coercion, propaganda, and presidential orders substituted for specific laws in a land builded upon the government of laws and not of men. We ‘have seen intellectual dishonesty and the smearing of opponents. . “And we are told that all this is

good for us.”

BY JOE COLLIER
Indiana, Bell Telephone Co: officials today announced that at the end of July this year there were 4134 more telephones in Indianapolis, 12,061 more in the state, than July last year. The gain in 1935 over 1934 was only 7182 in the state. In the single month of July this year, there was a gain of 825 telephones in the state,
# »
which constituted a ‘very good month,
” since the only gain in recent
years registered in a July was in 1929 with 25 stations.
Although all ‘these gains represent only one-third of the number of phones lost in the state “during the bad years,” phone company officials said the recovery has been steady and ever-increasing: Long distance business also has shown a praquat upward swing.
74,000 Phones in City:
The telephone business generally is/ regarded as one of the reliable
business indices. At the moment there | are more than 74,000 telephones in Indianapolis and- 190,541 in the state. At the peak, there were 230,000 in the state. In the phone books for Indianapolis, scheduled to be delivered Aug. 31 and Sept. 1, there are to be approximately 4000 new alphabetical listings. Total number of alphabetical listings in the. new directory will be approximately 55,461. There | will be approximately 18 more pages in the new book than in the last one. |. 4 There will be approximately 32. 280 ¢cnanges in the alphabetical section numbers in the new book, and 12,050 changes in the classified section, ‘representing a 59 per cent change over the old directory.
Exchanges Are Rearranged
Corrections in the downtown.exchanges, Lincoln and Rlley, have been rearranged to take care of additional trunk line facilities
needed by various business and
commercial subscribers. - Moreover, many’ residential listings formerly carried in the DRexel, TAlboft and IRvington exchanges have had to be transferred to other exchanges, because the telephone development in. certain residential areas has grown past the estimates of the phone company. In addition to that, WAshington
exchange units are being trans-
ferred to the HUmboldt exchange because city telephone sqrvice has been extended farther north. The telephone company was ready for recovery. In the first place, every single employe is qualified ale suihorjsed to take any

Watchman Takes Order The night watchman at the downtown building heard a banging on the door the other night at 11. He opened and found a man and his wife who explained ' they wanted service at their home next day, bul were going away early in the morning. He took the order and the money and the phone was installed. There are several major reasons In the downtown exchanges, numbers were - changed this year when so many business clients needed more trunk lines into their boards. These trunk - line arrangements work on specialized equipment which automatically * selects a line not in use no ‘matter what . number. is dialed. Thus if a business had CAnal- 1111, 1112, 1113 and on up te 1120, by dialing the first number you would get any one of the 10 no busy. And then there are the ordinary reasons for changes, such as the subscriber moving from one part of the city to another, from one exchange area to another. With dental mirrors and oil cans so delicate that they expel the finest of oil in fractions of drops and look like hypodermic needles, employes keep all this dialing equipment in working order. They are engaged constantly in
what they call preventive mains
tenance. They test the apparatus periodically. under conditions more severe than ordinary business ever
- would ‘develop, just to try to find
“bugs” in -the machines. When they do they fix them. The dial apparatus rooms sound like a hundred sewing machines in action, as they automatically hunt out connections so fast your ear can't follow them: The new book cover, which has been redesigned, will be green instead of brown. Black ink instead of blue will be ‘used. : Fire, police and ambulance numbers will be on
