SHORTAGE IN
EQUIPMENT
Telephone Company is Having Hard
Time to Secure Apparatus for
Which Demand Has Been
incr aSed.

The telephone company has been
having much trouble recently getting
enough apparatus and supplies to in
stall telephones and telephone equip
ment
This situation, telephone officials
say, has resulted from two causes:
There is a nationwide scarcity Of raw
products, especially wood, paper and
metals, the principal materials used
in making telephone supplies. Also
there is an unusual demand for tele-
phone service throughout the country,
whics, has continued for nearly two
years.
Because OF the shortage Of raw ma
teriaIs and the heavy demand for teie-
phone supplies, the factories are I'm
able TO furnish telephone instruments,
wire. switchboard parts and other
equipment as fast as needed
The telephone company is making
every effort TO take care of requests
for the installation Of telephones or
changes in equipment as promptly AZ
possible, but Manager Williams says
that at times there is likely 10 be con-
siderable delay
The telephone company is asking
that it be notified as early as possible
when a new telephone is wanted or
when any change IN equipment is de-
sired
