Civilians Asked To
Cooperate in Use OF
Long Distance Calls

Civilians were reqr(s ted today
to cooperate with the nations war
effort by refraining as far as pos
sible from using long distance fac
ilities On Christmas Day and New
Years Day in order that long dis
lance telephone lines can be kept
open for government use in this
emergency.
The request came from Mr.. A. M
Burroughs district manager Of Sou
thern Bell Telephone and Telegraph
Company, who said that war pre-
parations might be seriously ham,
pered if long distance circuits be-
come so crowded with civilian Holt
day greeting messages as to delay
cmpletion of calls necessary to the
war program.
He asked all persons contemplate
ing exchanging greetings by Ions
distance telephone to place theil
calls some time other than Christ
mas Day and New Years Day as
contribution toward Americas pre-
parations.
In making his appeal, Mr.. Bor
oughs said "long distance facilitie.
have been crowded with calls evel
since the United States was attack
ed on December 7.
Government long distance tele.
phone requirements, both military
and civil, have increased sharply
Industrial plants, stepping up the
tempo of production, have started
using long distance in an ever-in.
creasing volume.
'In addition, news services of es-
sential and semi-essential nature
have found it necessary to increase
their use of long distance. Long
distance lines also are used to link
the stations Of the radio networks
On top of this, the heavy volume OF
civilian calls which we had already
anticipated shows signs Of increas'
ing beyond the capacity of our fac
~ilities, despite u about prepare
ton of the past months. Unless there
is a sharp reduction in volume Of
non-essential long distance calls or
Christmas and New Years Day
there might certainly be delays OF
essential calls.
