see that it is in good working
order by dialing a special number
at the office. They then give the
subscriber card bearing a new
number if necessary and make
any explanations of the new sys-
tenn that may be necessary. A
small booklet is left with the user
to explain the details of the new
system.
The students say that the chief
cause of difficulty for phone users
is the instructive habit of lifting
the phone and waiting for the
operator. They po'nt out that with
the dial system the person placing
a call should wait for the dial
tone instead.
Others are under the impression
that they can call Miami numbers
under the new setup although this
is not the case. Local manager
Chet Cold said that long distance
dial service is expected to be add
ed in the future, however. Until
then it will be necessary to call
the long distance operator to place
such call, he added.

Snyder May
Be Linked 10
Tax Scandal

WASHINGTON B = House in
yestigators report that, after a
year of trying, they now have
documents purporting to show Sec
retary of the Treasury Snyder took
undue interest in a multimillion-
dollar tax case.
The report came, after a closed
door session yesterday, from a
House ways and means subcom-
mittee investigating tax scandals.
It said the group has received
from the Justice Departments S
Criminal Division a log of tele-
phone conversations between Sny-
der and Charles Oliphant, former
chief counsel for the revenue
bureau. Oliphant served in that
post from 1947 until last fall, when
he quit under fire.
Committee sources said extracts
from the long-sought telephone
transcript show Snyder displayed
"an unusual degree of interest" in
a claim by Universal Pictures,
Inc.. for 2O-million-dollar refund
on excess profit taxes levied some
10 years ago.
The sources said Snyder tele-
phoned Oliphant frequently in 194S
and 1949 to speed up handling of
Universars claim. The case was
expedited from the New York field
office directly to the Treasury
where a two-million-dollar award
was made last December.
Along with the Stenographic rec
ord of the conversations, Snyder
sent the committee a letter of ex-
PLANTATION, not made public. A com
mittee aide said Snyder's letter
claims he took only an official
interest in completing the tax
settlement.

School Support
Ideas Are Asked

ATLANTIC CITY u Catholic
bishops were called on yesterday
by a leading Methodist churchman
to state IN "clear and unmistak-
able" terms whether they seek
public support for Catholic schools.
The statement was made by
Methodist Bishop G. Bromley Ok
nam of Washington, D. c., during
the semi-annual meeting here Of
the Council Of Bishops of the
Methodist Church.
A controversy has risen from a
3, 3,000-word Catholic declaration last
week on religion and education.
Protests about the declaration also
have been voiced by officials of
the Baptist Church and the Unitar-
ian Ministers Association.
The Catholic Bishops of Amer
lea had said in the declaration that
it is the states duty to aid re.
ligious training. In addition, they
described as utterly unfair" deni-
al of such services as tax-financed
bus transportation to Catholic
schools.
Oman, secretary of the Meth
odist Council of Bishops, called on
Catholic leaders to define clearly
their detectives in respect to tax
aid to parochial schools.
Before there can be any con-
structive discussion of school
lunches, buses and other auxiliary
services to Catholic schools, Ok
nam said, there must first come
word from Catholic leaders that
these are not merely an initial
step in the direction toward more
public support.
