litical Lines.

Speaking at the forum luncheon
of the Women's City Club yester-
day, Mrs. Medill Mccormick. wife
of Senator Mccormick and chair
man of the Women's National Re
publican Committee, opposed the
formation of "a women's nonparti-
san organization on the grounds
that a non-partisan political organ
ization can accomplish nothing.
Women will have accomplished
a big thing" said Mrs. Mccormick,
when they remove the stigma from
the word politics, but 1t must be
done by working within the parties.
The sex line fight has been won and
women should now go into the
party of their choice and work
through them"
Mrs. Mccormick stated that she
was proud of being a good ward
politician, and of being the first
woman lobbyist in the State of
Illinois.

The Storm
Your Telephone
Service

With Washington practically buried under the heav-
lest fall of since 1S99 there has
telephone service the most gigantic volume of traffic
known in the history of the city.
AS result of the Storm Washingtons local telephone
traffic yesterday leaped to nearly 100000 calls pract
caly double the normal daily number. Many business
men remained at their homes ransactng their business
by telephone. This involved tremendous number of
calls from the residential sections to the downtown
trail offices.
Our operating force consists of 1850 young women
many of them living in outlying sections from which it
was impossible to reach the exchanges. But many of
our former operators and some former operators of
other Bell System Companies, fortunately were able to
present themselves at offices volunteers to aid in
handling Washington's traffic.
The companys fleet of motor trucks was turned to the
task of bringing operators to and from their work
Many of our young women early anticipating the condi
lions which would arise walked great distances and ar
rived at the switchboards before they were actually
due. One young walked six miles through the
snow and reported for work on time.
The men of our traffic supervisory forces were at
their posts throughout the entire night planning for the
emergency which they knew would come.
The devotion of entire personnel to the service of
the public has been splendid and it was due to this fact
alone that it was possible for the service meet the tre-
mendous demands of yesterday.
we realize tnat IN the lace OF these conditions it has
not been possible for operating forces to render
service of usual high standard We are endeavor-
ing to give special attention to messages involving public
health and safety.
The efforts OF forces to render the best service
possible in the emergency will be continued Operators
whose homes are distant and inaccessible are being
housed and cared for in the companys buildings or in
nearby hotels.
The cooperation of subscribers in this emergency
is earnestly solicited Our wish is to give you the full
est measure OF service. At the same time if certain
calls can be deferred avoided it will aid greatly in our
continuing to meet the emergency and such recognition
of the efforts of forces will be thoroughly appreci-
ated by them and the management
