Daylight Saving Time To Start In About Half Nation Sunday By UNITED PRESS About half the nation's popu lation will lose an hour, and farmers, travelers, and timetable authors will have their annual c'ay of confusion and frustra tion next Sunday. That's when Daylight Saving Time replaces Standard Time for an estimated 69,779,806 Ameri cans in most of the nation's ma jor cities and throughout at least nine states. Chang at 2 A.M. . The big switch will come at 2 a.m. local time. Or, to be more exact, 2 a.m. will never arrive. Instead official clocks will be MASON'S Old Fastaod ROOT BEER rrs M-M-M!

The change-over generally re sults in suburbanites missing their trains, employees turning up late for work, and farmers grumbling because their cow milking schedules are out of step with the clock. This year, however, may bring even more confusion. Many eastern states have de cided, or are on the point of de ciding, to extend DST an extra month until the last Sunday in October. Out of Stp This will put them out of step vith the rest of the nation, where DST traditionally ends on the last Sunday of September. It may also play hob with tele vision and radio schedules. New York is already officially com mitted to extending DST and this could'mean TV shows would be originating in New York City on daylight time schedules while the rest of the nation had gone back to standard time. Other states where more Day light Savings Time has been ordered or is being considerea are Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New Jersey, and the District of Co lumbia. An extension was also under study in Chicago. Practically all of Pennsyl vania will make the change, even though state law requires that clocks in state-owned build ings stick to Standard Time. The law didn't affect state employees, who planned to show up for work an hour later along with everybody else. Same Situation in Ohio The situation was about the same in Ohio, where 41 cities and numerous villages will make the change while official time remains Standard. In Kentucky and West Virginia a few cities and counties will switch over while the rest of the two states stick to the old time. Across the nation, nine states will switch officially to Daylight time and the change will be made on an optional basis in 15 others. In the remaining 24 states, some will be Standard through and through and some will have both times. The Elgin National Watch Company estimated that 43 per cent of the nation's population will be under daylight time this year, as compared to 37 per cent in 1948.
