 The high wind and heavy rain on the night of July 2S started the troublous days for the telephone people. Thisc storm took a great toll of telephone equipment, by breaking lines and causing outside electrical influences to burn them out The damage by this storu, was widespread and ran the gamut of things that can happen to put telephone service out of order.
 On successive days or nights thereaft- CT till the present, some part of the been visited by electrical storms and heavy downpours of rain, each ioi1g it's own destructive work.
 A lightning storm of July 24 caused a burned out cable in Stamford. putting 300 telephones out of commission there and nearly twice that number there have since bepn affected by storms which crossed the Stamford section On :he same night Danbury was hard hit by the same storm. Then along came a storm that struck hard up New London, Put nam, Danielson and Willimantc way and in other towns in that section. From 200 to 800 telephones were put out of order by succession of storms in the eastern part of the state. Bridgeport, Norwalk, New Canaan and other towns in the eastern and northern part of the state were in the path of another intense electrical storm which played havoc with the telephone lines. Cornwall, for in- stance, was out of telephone comnuni- cation with the state at large for few hours on Saturday morning because of a break in the main cable. Lightning caused the trouble.

 HIT BY ELECTRICAL sToRN

Electrical storms, severe in their inten- sity and damage, recurring daily for more than three weeks, occasianaI ex- tremely high winds in some sections of the state, accompanied by prolonged period of excesslve humidity, have pro- duced the worst condition in the outside plant that the telephone company has ex- perienced from summer storms in it's history.
 Despite the fact that every available telephone man has been put on trouble work and that many of them have work ed nights and all of them on Saturday afternoons and Sundays, they have not been able to repair the damage as fast as it has occurred. To date the storms are ahead of them for it has been just one break after another in the tele- phone business. A few days of dry weather, however and the service will be cleared in all sections of the state
 For three weeks or more, no A hour period has passed without a heavy down pour of rain in some part of the state and it is also a fact that a lightning storm has occurred in some section of Connecticut every day for 23 consecu- tive days. When it rains anywhere in this state it rains on the equipment of the telephone company.
 Cables struck by lightning, broken by 1aIlen trees and then burned out by con- tact with trolley or electric light wires flooded manholes, grounds or telephone lines in damp cellars and elsewhere, and elsewhere, and other disturbing effects ot the long spell of wretched weather had put 1000 telephones out of commission in two weeks ending today.
