Haifa Phone000000Mls Short
HAIFA, (JTA)Naming no of-
fenders, an Israel telephone serv-
ice" official reported this week
that a mechanical system of
keeping Haifa users from talking
too much was working fine•
Mr. M. Y. Guy, director of En-
gineering Services and Tele-
phones, said that the limited fa-
cilities of Israel's telephone serv-
ice made it urgent to keep calls
short.
It was decided that the best ap-
proach was to install a time met-
ering system by which users are
charged for the length of a call,
without any minimum period.
Mr. Guy explained carefully
that this procedure was,approved
to "encourage brief calls" and
thus to free the overburdened
lines for other "subscribers•"
