How the War Is Affecting
the Telephone Business
The War Has Causeds
1. An unprecedented increase in the demand
for local and long distance telephone service.
2. Acute shortages of materials needed to
provide additional telephone lines and equipment.
3. Substantial increases in taxes and other
telephone expenses.
I . .A ■
The Result Is:
1. War needs for telephone service are being
met first—promptly and fully.
2. In many communities, it is not always
possible to provide, for civilian use, just the type
of telephone service that is wanted.
3. Long distance calls placed by the general
public may sometimes be delayed.
4t. Telephone earnings are lower in spite of
a much larger volume of business.
We thank you, the users of our service, for the fine
cooperation you are giving us, and we pledge our
selves to continue to provide the best telephone
service that is possible under existing conditions.
