NW Daylight Saving Time Elsewhere Affects Long Distance Calls @] Daylight saving time is now being ob- " served in many cities and some states throughout the country. This should be remembered when placing long-distance telephone calls. Generally in those places the clocks have * been advanced one hour ahead of the local standard time, causing differences in lunch times, office closing times, and retiring times at night. Business calls should be placed early enough to permit them to be completed before 4 p.m. here, which in daylight saving places is 5 p.m.—the general clos- ing hour of the business day. Some of the more important cities ob- serving daylight saving time, which is one hour faster than standard time, are: Atlantic City, N, J.
