Phone Book
Warning

WAStIlNGTON-UP-The Navy
Department is using its telephone
directory 10 remind its personnel
that "a secret is a secret.
Nearly every page OF the direc-
tory carries an admonition against
careless violations OF security. Slo-
sans are printed in large type at
the bottom Of the pages.
The Navy obviously doesn't sub.
scribe to that old man-conceived
idea that it's only the women who
can't keep secrets. To show that
it is playing no fayorites. the direc-
tory puts forward these warnings:
TO the ladies-don't tell him. -
ITO men only-dont tell her."
The reminders were directed
especially against circulating gos-
sip and rumors. Gossip is faster
than radio" the book points out.
Don't circulate rumors.'
Spies are habitually inquisi-
tive" the directory continues. and
cautions its readers about those
eyer-present strangers. Don't give
information TO strangers Why
does he want to know that BE
ware OF. inquisitiVe friends The
slogans not only warn the reader
about his words. but ask him TO
take action II necessary. Report
suspicious actions. Demand iden-
titication from strangers"
For the benefit OF those new TO
their jobs who may be overly i'm
pressed by the vital information
they think they possess. the silent
watchdog suggests: Don't show
off your confidential knowledge
You don I have to tell everything.

tude of the book might be:
