In the engineering of a telephone plant—switchboards, conduits, cables, pole lines
and general mechanical equipment—we have always tried to anticipate the growth of a
community and provide therfor by advance construction. This course has enabled us to
more promptly comply with requirements for service with better construction and at an
ultimata expense less than that involved In waiting to meet demands as they arise.
In the war period w s ware unable to maintain thia reserve plant, aa the vexj)
things we needed for telephono purposes were required and necessarily taken for gov
ernment purposes. The demand for telephone service did not decrease and our reserve
facilities were practically absorbed in meeting it.
99
Aa every business man knows, the problems of reconstruction following the war
have been acute and prolonged to an entirely unexpected degree. Unusual conditions
are prevalent throughout the entire manufacturing, mercantile and social world. The
telephone industry has had to meat all the difficulties and handicaps of retarded produc
tion distribution and transportation.

even accomplishment. In the face of an unprecedented demand for telephone service
In the last few months, hampered by the exhaustion of our reserve plant and difficulty
in securing materials, we have added more telephones thus far this year in the State of
Oregon than jn any sim ilar period of telephone history.
In the State of Oregon, in the eight months ending August 81, we have added 6868
telephones. In the eight months ending July 81, 1917—before the war—we gained 2666
telephones.
In the State of Oregon we have approximately 2600 unfilled applications for tele
phone service. A sim ilar situation exists all over the United States. We w ill con
tinue to secure all the equipment possible, and the desires of the public w ill be met as
soon as it is humanly possible to do so.
The Telephone Company regrets the inconvenience tq prospective subscribers. It
