Today Telephone Properties
Are Returned

States government.
While the property has been properly maintain

ment took over August 1st, nineteen hundred
eighteen 1t is not adequate for it's job or we'll
manned as il was; that it is not, is in no way the
fault of Federal control which was eminenty fair
1t is due to for which neither the government
nor the companies are to blame.
A year ago today we were at war. Labor and
materials needed for both telephone operation and
construction were turned to military uses Some
materials were vital to the carrying on of the
that even the work of providing telephone facilities
for the government was retarded and part of
them could be spared for commercial telephone pur-
poses
No less vital was the government need for those
skilled to create, mantaiu and operate the vast in
accommodation systems necessary in modern
fare and in the conduct of the vastly increased gov
ernment service.
Thousands of telephone men were already at
the battle front Thousands more were under arms
and still telephone experts and skilled operators
went into the service of the government and contr-
butory industries by the tens Of thousands
The reserves of plant and equipment were
drawn upon until they were entirely used up, and
the experienced staff was gradually depleted To

and instantly the business world sprang into intense
activity The demands for telephone service passed
all former records.
To replace the exhausted reserves which had
been carried for just such purposes and to replace
the skilled forces to meet this unprecedented emer-
gency there began rush for construction, for
adjustment, for high pressure repairs, for feversh
extensions. All these must be continued with in
creasing effort.
The return of the property comes in the very
midst of this race between an overpowering demand
and an upbuilding of a system whose growth
held back and whose forces were scattered by the
vital needs of war.
Much progress has been made in the upbuilding
of this system but far more is still required to meet
the swift growth of business and also to give First

vice struggling against an unprecedented demand
The prosperity which creates this emergency
in service also scarcity of those desiring employ
ment in the service. Under such conditions tele-
