INTRODUCTION
R. L. POLK & CO., publishers of the Indianapolis City Directory, as well as more than 700 other city, county, state and national directories, present to subscribers and the general public, this, the 1930 edition of the Indianapolis Directory, which also includes Beech Grove, Broad Ripple, University Heights and Woodruff Place. This edition is distinguished by an entirely new feature, a symbol differentiating between tenant-owned and rented homes in the Directory of Householders section.
Confidence in the continued growth of Indianapolis' industry, popula- tion and wealth, and in the advancement of its civic and social activities, will be created as sections of this directory are consulted, for the directory is a mirror truly reflecting Indianapolis to the world.
The enviable position occupied by R. L. POLK & CO.'S directories in the estimation of the public throughout the country, has been established by rendering the best in directory service. With an unrivaled organization, and having the courteous and hearty cooperation of the business and pro- fessional men and residents, the publishers feel that the result of their labors will meet with the approval of every user, and that the Indianapolis Directory will fulfill its mission as a source of authentic information per- taining to the community.
Population
The publishers estimate the population in Indianapolis at 445,205, bas- ing their figures on the number of individuals' names in the alphabetical section of the directory, with due allowance for children and for women whose names are not listed separately from those of their husbands. Territory immediately adjacent, which is part of the city, as far as business and social life are concerned, is included in the directory, and as the names listed in the directory are not confined to arbitrary boundary lines, or corporate city limits, the 1930 Federal Government Census for Indianapolis will no doubt show a considerably smaller figure.
Six Major Departments
The several essential departments are arranged in the following order :--
THE MISCELLANEOUS, DEPARTMENT, pages 15 to 37, presents a variety of information, such as lists of city, county, state and federal offi- cials; post office and public school directories; statistical review; manu- facturing, trade and civic surveys, etc.
THE BUYERS' GUIDE, pages 101 to 280, printed on tinted paper, con- tains the advertisements of leading manufacturing, business and profes- sional interests of Indianapolis and vicinity. These pages will be found particularly interesting and instructive to substantial purchasing factors. The advertisements have been carefully grouped by departments and are indexed under headings descriptive of the business represented. This is reference advertising at its best, and, as such, merits a survey by all buyers eager to familiarize themselves with sources of supply. The community's activities, in many interesting phases, are authentically pictured. In a great commercial and industrial center like Indianapolis, the necessity of having this kind of information immediately available, is very great, and frequently, pressing. General appreciation of this fact is evidenced by the liberal support the city directory enjoys in the many fields which it serves.
THE ALPHABETICAL LIST OF NAMES of residents, business firms and corporations is included in pages 281 to 1484. A feature of this section is the inclusion of the wife's name in parentheses following that of the husband.
THE STREET RAILWAY AND BUS LINES DIRECTORY is contained in pages 1485 to 1487. Correlation of this section with the Street and Ave- nue Guide determines the street car or bus running nearest to any given number or intersection.
THE DIRECTORY OF HOUSEHOLDERS, INCLUDING STREET AND AVENUE GUIDE, covers pages 1489 to 1936. In this section the names of the streets and avenues are arranged in alphabetical order; the residences and business houses are arranged numerically under the name of each street and avenue, and the names of householders and business concerns are

placed opposite the numbers. A new feature of this department is the distinction between tenant-owned and rented homes.
THE CLASSIFIED BUSINESS DIRECTORY is included in pages 1937 to 2126. This department lists the various manufacturing, mercantile and pro- fessional interests of the whole community in alphabetical order under ap- propriate headings. This feature constitutes an invaluable and indispen- sable epitome of the business interests of the community. "The Directory is the common intermediary between Buyer and Seller." As such it plays no small part in the daily doings of the business world. "More goods are bought and sold through the Classified Business Directory than through any other medium."
