The strike of the linemen employed by
the Southern Bell Telephone and fele-
graph company has been officially call
ed off. according to adviees received In
Birmingham yesterday from Atlanta,
where the headquarters of the striking
linemen was located
The strike was declared by the Elec-
trieal Workers union on April 16 and has
been in effect ever since. II delayed to
some extent the improvements being
made by the company in Birmingham
and it has only been within the past six
weeks 1T is said, that the new men en-
ployed have been able to get the service
up TO the standard it was before the
strike.
The announcement is made that the
telephone company has agreed to employ
as many of the strikers as it could use,
excepting such as had been guilty Of al
legged Objectionable conduct since the
strike was declared

The company is at present installing

a dozen of these suburban exchanges and
by the present system all the connec-
lions from one exchange with another
have to pass through the Birmingham
exchange This burdens the wires too
much and when the new system Is COM
pleted Birmingham will have the most
complete of any city in the country.
When the new system is completed
Woodlawn, for instance, will be connect
ed with every other branch exchange,
and when a person in Woodlawn wants
to speak to someone in another suburb,
| they can get direct connection without
having to get connection through the main
office. This will not only greatly facilitate
the matter of getting connections, but 1t
will decrease the burden on the wires into
the Birmingham exchange.
This in turn viii increase the efficiency
of the service in Birmingham, as the
central office will have a great deal less
connections to make
New Cables with several hundred wires
each are being laid to connect the main

As is well known, the engineers of the
company estimate that in ten or twelve
| years the Birmingham exchange will be
the largest in the south, and that 1t will
have about $4,000 phones. The company
Is now laying the foundations of sys-
TEN to take care of this increased bust
ness of the future. Already the number
of telephones in Birmingham is increas-
ing at a greater proportion than in any
other southern city and when the new
system is completed within the next three
or four months, it is believed that there
will be an unprecedented increase in the
number of phones installed.
