ANCIENT PAY PHONE

DALLAS, Tex.-P)-What would
you say if you found a telephone
in a leading hotel that had bright
plated slots for nickets, dimes,
quarters, half dollars and silver
dollars? Here's what S. Bert Hard
in, "A, said: That's a 1912 model
magnetO-pOwered coin telephone
the first coin phone ever built"
Hardin went to work for the
telephone company here March 20,
1900, when Dallas had 2,459 tele-
phones. Today there are 27O,154
within the city limits.
Hardin and other old timers met
recently in the 3Oth annual conven-
tiOn of the Telephone Pioneers Of
Americas Lone Star chapter. The
first coin phone was on exhibit.
Cost about five times as much to
call in those days." Hardin said.

State Is Cooperating In
Summer Speed Control
Program For Safety
teontlnued irom flrst 10


The safety coordinators, who act
as liaisOn officers OF official accident
prevention agencies in their respec-
tive states, banded together in the
effort several months ago at the
suggestion Of Mr.. James r. Barrett,
VINO is chief Of the Police Bureau
of New York States Division of
Safety. and William M. Greene, of
Hartford, director Of the COnnecti-
cut Safety Commission. Other
states represented in the cOordina-
tors group include: Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachus-
etts, Rhode Island, Connecticut,
New York, Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sey, and Maryland
At sectional meetings held re-
Gently in Boston and Philadelphia,
the heads of traffic law enforce
ment and judicial agencies and or
ganizations of the individual states
and the entire region joined forces
with the coOrdinatoFs in putting
teeth" into the showdown CAM
paign," according to Mr.. Ashton.
The Boston meeting was attended
by SIS top traffic safety, motor We
hicle and police officials from all
New England states and New York
State, who pledged fullest SUPPORT
of the summer safety effort. Simi-
lar action was taken by 35 official
Representatives of the state police,
driver licensing and highway de-
partments of Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, Delaware. and Maryland at
the session in Philadelphia, which
likewise was attended by the pres
idents Of state associations of chiefs
of police, associations Of sheriffs,
judges and magistrates, and other
highway safety officials.
Excessive speed is the target of
this summer showdown campaign
in the northeaster area because it
is known to be the cause of most
of the deaths and severe, injuries
suffered in accidents on the open
highways" said Mr.. Barrett. Not
only will police intensity their eff
forts to reduce the expected num-
ber of accidents this summer by ap-
pretending violatOrs of speed reg
ulatiOns, but the courts will be sol
idly behind their enforcement pro-
gram. Linked with these official ac-
tivities will be a broad scale educa-
tiOnal campaign directed toward
the individual motorists. Millions
of resident and nonresident drivers
will be crOwding the highways of
the IL states this summer in un-
precedented numbers. We want the
individual driver to understand that
the showdown campaign does not
mean series of speed traps on
the highways in all of these states.

tion at this time, because the bill
has already passed the House of
Representatives.
The Senator indicated that
strong efforts would be made to OBJ
tain its approval in the Senate.
He warned that if Delaware should
lose the 5-million dollars annually
obtained from corporation fees, the
State would probably have to find
other ways to make up the revenue
He also noted that should Fed

Incoming House Choirmon's Resolution
Provides Direct Primaries Throughout U S.

February. It was considered al

Committee but no action was
taken.
Mr.. Simpson has not been ar
advocate of so-called Washing
ton home rule" In his statements
to reporters today. he stopped
short of any declaration for ar
elected city government estab-
Ilished by simple congressional
legislation.
Open Minded on Subject.
He said he had an oper MIND
for consideration of proposals on
this subject, but added that he felt
Congress could not divest itself OF
its constitutional responsibilities
by means of simple legislation.
Referring to his bill for national
primaries by a constitutional
amendment, he said: "1'his would
give the people Of the District a
vote in presidential elections.
Mr.. Simpson, a 10-year member
of the District Committee, said he
had not voted for the Auchincloss
home rule bill in the 80th Con-
gress. He said he was against it
because it included a dual voting
provision, allowing persons to vote
here and back home.
Since then, the Senate twice
mas passed other home rule bills
in which changes were made in
the dual voting provisions. Mr.
Simpson refrained from any direct
statement on these bills, recalling
they had not come up for action
in the House.
Backed ID. c. Funds Boost.
Mr.. Simpson reminded reporters
he had voted for an increased
Federal payment toward District
costs. II have voted for every

1T was only So million when ]

cent last year in the House"

He decried what he called the

it has left a dangerous popular

Mr.. Rees said his resolution was
