CROWDED
WITH THE
CALLS
OF WAR
It’s true we usually can put
through quickly your long
distance telephone calls to
towns near-by. But when you
send your voice to far cities,
it may travel on lines jammed
to the limit with calls that
help move troops, make
planes, build tanks.
We can’t put up more lines,
because most of the metal has
gone to war. So please help us
in a vital job. Make as few
calls as possible to war cen-
ters, or cities far away, and
please plan to keep such calls
short. It will help clear the
way for the calls of war.
