in those days. In any case, the
White House managed to limp along
on one phone until the end of Presi-
dent Cleveland administration.
BY the time President Mckinley
entered the White House, all gov
ernment Offices had phones and
they were accepted as everyday
necessities, but they were not an
important element in the handling
Of White House business.
When Teddy Roosevelt came in,
despite his strenuous activities and
what was considered then some
what revolutionary outlook, he
made very little use of the tele-
phoze himself
Then along came Franklin Roose-
welt and the New Deal, a part of
which was a five-position branch
exchange with more than 200 Off
cial extensions and 20 outside trunk
connections to handle the calls.
''White House calling" became a
by-word.
Then also came the first woman
telephone operator and probably
the most efficient of either sex that
the White House ever had or will
have in many day. Louise Hach-
meister-'' 'Hackie"-is probably IA
vorably known to more famous
users of the telephone than any
other operator in history. Her gen.
ius in being able to locate people
anywhere in the world has been the
subject of many story. Louis
Howe, who introduced her to the
President while she was working at
Friends of Roosevelt headquarters,
called her "the worlds greatest
telephone detective" because. he
Arizona sun., 1947-08-22

said, "she doesn't need a number to
get her man."
Once she located Cornelius Van
derbilt Jr. with no other clue than
that he was motoring east from
California.
l don't know how many long
distance calls a day she put in at
the peak of the war but / do know
that the number of long-distance
calls out of Washington jumped
from approximately 1900 a day in
1889 to well over $4,000 in 1945. To-
day they have dropped back to a
little over 44,OO0 1t is fair to as
sumo that the White House calls
have followed the same curve
under the nimble-fngered direction
of "Hackie."
Even by 1885 it took five
operators in shifts to handle the
White House calls. At that time
Miss Hachmeister was the first
and only woman to operate a
White House switchboard.

phone a good deal = he has so

NEWS REVIEW
ANNIVERSARY:
Bells TOLLed

In Hiroshima, Japan, THE bells
toIIed. People of THE city stood
silently in prayer for q moment,
then aren't on about the business
of lining.
It was the second anniversary Of
the radiant, consuming flash Of the
worlds first atomic bomb.
Hiroshima, which saw $4,000 of its
citizens inundated in that uncon-
trollable outburst of energy in 1945.
was perhaps the one place on earth
where the bomb could be thought
of as a reality. Everywhere else
it was a nightmarish, Damoclean
sword; but in Hiroshima the people
were paying it a sort of fantastic
and bewildered adulation.
They tolled bells. and they
planned the building of modern
city with peace memorial at the
spot over which the bomb had been
dropped.
At other points across the globe,
the atomic age was living up to it's
awful reputation by wringing fear
some comments and predictions
from men who are supposed to know
about it.
Robert M. Hutchins, chancellor of
University of Chicago, said that two
atom bombs which now could be
manufactured would make the Unit
ed States uninhabitable if exploded
simultaneously. He made it COM
plete Jeremiad by adding, 1--WE
know that some other country will
have the atomic bomb within five
years. We know that when that
happens we are all set for the final
catastrophe.
In a constructive moment, DIR.
Robert Oppenheimer, atom pio-
neer, said that usable electrical
power derived from atomic en-
ergy may be available by 1852.
But everybody knew that the Unit
ed States was stressing development
and production of the atomic bomb
to build a stockpile for utter de-
struction. And everybody knew that
Russia was laboring furiously to-
ward the same ends.
The people of Hiroshima did well
to toll bells two years after they
felt the bomb. It brought to mind
an old, poetic question::
Did the bells herald a we'd

Is MILLION ACRES
US. Boosts 1948 Wheat Goal

WASHINGTON. - Fourth largest
wheat acreage the farmers of this
nation have ever planted may be
realized in 1913 if the department
of agriculture's revised goal of IS
million acres is met next year.
That mark is a five millionaire
increase from the pattern recon-
mended last year and a seven
millionaire boost over the wheat
goal set last spring before the corn
outlook took on its gloomy cast.
Continued and unremitting interna-
tional demand for food grains in
f1uenced the agriculture department
into making the upward revision.
While officials admitted that the
increased acreage constitutes an in
vitation to farmers to plant heavily
in wheat, they cautioned against

ALEUTIANS:
Bases Retained

The Aleutian islands, that long,
cold chain of fog-bound rocks which
started many an American G.I.
talking to himself during the war,
is being integrated into the pattern
of the North American defense sys-
tenn.
General of the Army Dwight
Eisenhower has revealed that the
framework Of strategic bases in the
Aleutians is being kept intact for
rapid expansion if necessary.
After having paid a visit to the
continents northernmost line of de-
tense, General Eisenhower said that
the islands were not being aban-
doned. but were undergoing a ''con-
traction and concentration Of mill
tary potential"
Arizona sun., 1947-08-22

Estimating on the basis of a 10
year average yield figure of 14.3
bushels an acre, the crop in 1948
would be 1.07 billion bushels, but if
the outturn follows the 1942-46 aver
age of 1873 bushels an acre, pro-
duction would reach 1921 billion
bushels.
In the wake of this years bumpet
crop, a much smaller 1948 wheat
yield normally would be indicated:
however, the world food shortage
makes it desirable, according to de-
partment spokesmen, that the
United States continue its high rate
of production. The United Nations
has warned that the world food sit
uation has not improved in the past
year, and predicts shortages will
continue another two years.
