Frsnzen announced Wednesday that new tele phone numbers for city offices will become effective today to be handled through the newly completed city police, fire and first aid switchboard. i By dialing the new number, 2-4191, persons phoning the city hall may contact any one of the various city, offices, including the police and first aid departments, Franzen said. Fire alarms, how ever, should still be given by calling either 3144 or 3145, he added. Separate fire department numbers were kept to prevent lost time in reporting a fire, in the event the other city telephone lines were busy. The old fire department num ber, 5445, however, will be dis continued as soon as the new system becomes effective, j Fran zen said. j The new number, 2-4191, will also contact the city shops at 13th and Ferry streets. Each of the city offices and the shops are to be given extension numbers which will be made known to the public as soon as issued by the telephone company, Franzen said. The new switchboard is to be manned by members of the city police radio force, headed by Don Poujade.

Change Needed Says Cordon KLAMATH AGENCY, Ore., Aug. 20-(JP)-Klamath Indians have no reason to fear they will not get full value if the reservation should be liquidated as pending legisla tion proposes, Sen.

In the first indication of sens torial sentiment, Sen. Guy Cordon (R-Ore) said, "I don't believe present conditions on the reserva tion are proper.

S. Says Official WASHINGTON. Aug. 20-UP)- There is not a thing in sight to show a depression is coming, Di rector F.wan Clague of the bureau of labor statistics said today. Clague told a news conference that a summer slump predicted by some has been "indefinitely postponed." Current high prices contain "nothing spectacular" of an economy-wrecking explosive nature, he observed. Employment topped 60,000.000 in July for the second consecutive month and even a drastic drop in exports would not mean a cor responding slump in employment, the official said. Domestic de mand, he declared, could "absorb a large part, if not all, of the difference." Unemployment reached a sum mer high of 2,600,000 but already has begun to recede, Clague said. He pointed to an increase in housiryf activity as a factor in sustaining the employment level. Food 'Greatest World Problem' SPOKANE, Aug. 20 -(P)- W. Averell Harriman, secretary of commerce, told the Spokane Chamber of Commerce today that "food is the greatest problem in the world today."

He said also that German coal production cannot be increased unless more food is sent to the miners. He expressed gratification that the 20 per cent of the Americans who are farmers have been able to feed the nation better than any other is fed and at the same time have a surplus for export that is greater than is produced "by all others together."
