The Belgian Nazi paper Volk en Staat, received here today, protests the fact that Jewish names are still used by the telephone company in giving instructions in its directories on the correct use of the telephone. “Instead of saying ‘A as in Adam, D as in David, etc.’ when spelling out names on the telephone, Aryan names should be used,” the Nazi, paper demands.
