Phone Service
Still Normal
Woodburn Local telephone
service in Woodburn continues
to be normal in spite of the nation-wide
strike of union tele
phone operators, although no
long distance calls are being
taken except in cases of emerg
ency. Calls are still put mrougn
to Hubbard and Monitor, since
they are cleared by the local of
fice but all calls cleared through
Portland or Salem are on an
emergency basis.
Operators at Woodburn are
not union members and accord
ing to Mrs. Hattie Lytle, local
manager, the only possibility of
Woodburn service being discon
tinued would be a mechanical
breakdown as maintenance
workmen are included in the
strike.
Telegraph traffic at the Wood-
burn office of Western Union
has increased nearly 200 per
cent since the strike, according
to A. F. Fredrickson, local man
ager. Eva Rebekah Lodge
