telephone factories anas#
work for war
I HERE'S still a vast war to win in
the Pacific, and it will be a long time
before we can serve the last person on
the waiting list for telephones.
Telephone factories must con-
tinue hard at work for v/ar
Huge quantities of new telephone and
electronic equipment are needed in the
Pacific. For instance—in the first five
days on Iwo Jima, the marines built a
telephone system big enough for a city
of 65,000. The bigger the armies in the
Pacific war, and the longer they must
fight, the more they need telephone
equipment, radar, automatic gun di-
rectors—all the things that telephone
factories are making. That’s why, even
though the war in Europe is over, the
amount of such equipment required in
the Pacific theater is greater than any-
thing sent there so far.
Cuts in war demands for tele-
phone equipment will help, hut...
...the war load on telephone factories
will continue to be heavy. If all war
demands ended tomorrow, it would be
many months before everyone who
wants a telephone could get it without
delay.
Telephone factories must switch to
making “civilian” equipment again—
dial central office equipment, switch-
boards, cable, wire, telephones—all
quite different in many ways from war
equipment. And of course, the fac-
tories can make the switch only as fast
as the war load permits.
It takes time to put new
equipment to work
Putting equipment to work can take
more time than making it. More than
1,000,000 connections go into dial cen-
tral office equipment to serve only
10,000 telephones. And 225,000people
are waiting for telephone service right
now in the Southwest.
Just to install that many telephones
alone would take a long time, despite
every effort to speed up the job. Be-
fore the first “all-war” year of 1942,
our biggest increase in telephones was
only 117,000. That was in 1941, when
there was still plenty of equipment of
all kinds.
These things are sure
Of course, the end of the German war
brings us one step closer to the time
when we can again serve everyone who
wants a telephone without delay. But
as long as the Pacific war lasts, the
armed forces’ needs come first. That’s
the way we know you want it.
We can promise you this. We’ll con-
tinue to do our level best to provide
telephones as fast as we can, to as
. many people as possible.

The Summer Season means overtime for your elec-
tric refrigerator ... and heat can mean trouble for a
refrigerator unless it is properly cared for.
A regular system of correct care and use will prove
invaluable in prolonging the usefulness of your refrig-
erator and will assure you greater efficiency of operation.
Because of the part they play in protecting the nation’s
food and health, America’s electric refrigerators are mak-
ing a major contribution to the War Effort.
Check the suggestions listed below... you will find
them helpful in keeping your refrigerator in trim for
rendering valuable wartime service.
He Defrost Regularly ... Follow manufacturer's direc-
tions. Defrost when ice on freezer reaches approximate pencil
thickness. Let frost melt... never use a sharp tool. Empty drip
water immediately.
itiso Store Foods^Properly ... Meats and fish below ih the
cold storage container; milk and cream at top; bufterjleff-
overs in the middle; vegetables and fruits in the crisper. Proper
circulation of air helps, too .so don't overcrowd!
3* Keep the inside Fresh, Cleon ... Wash with baking
soda and wafer. Don't forget the freezer. Use epap and wafer
for the shelves ... and don't open the'door'too often — this
overworks ypur refrigerator,.,.* especially in hot weather.
