Police Departments, the country over, rely upon directory information for the location of lost persons. Lawyers and executors of estates are likewise depend- ent on the information that these "city catalogs" contain.
Real Estate buyers and agents have multitude oc- casions to refer to the pages of directories of other cities in order that they may have detailed and authen- tic information on parcels of land and subdivisions in which they have a personal or business interest.
