FLOOD OF PHONE A tornado of telephone calls struck the local exchange yesterday within a few minutes after the firing of the shot that took the life of Constable George Proacott on the front porch of the L. A. Banks residence at 1000 West Main street. The exchange switchboard, according to Manager R. B. Hammond, permits 13 operators to work at onoe. Under ordinary conditions only five to seven of the "positions" are necessary to carry Vie load. ' Shortly aftor the tragedy at 10:24, lights began to blink by the hun dreds on the switchboard as the girl operators worked frantically to stem the tide of Incoming calls. The force was Immediately augmented, accord ing to Wire Chlof Jack Ralston, 12 girls being . stationed at the board until after noon when the number of calls began gradually to decrease. Under normal traffic, a girl oper ator working one "position" at the board can complete 1100 calls per hour. With 12 girls working at top speed, telophone officials estimate 28,040 calls wore answered in a pe riod of approximately two hours j tthe greatest traffic ever experienced at the local exchange. As the tremendous load began to sweep over Ohter operator ciarita Bernhert and her girls, Manager Ham mond cnlted radio station KM ED and asked that a request be broadcast for all to limit telephone use to strictly business as the police and news papers were being handicapped In use of wire facilities due to the flood of calls. One telephone operator, Mrs. Ada Thornell, who was enjoying her dAy off duty, had Just ordored her lunoh at Groceteria No. 3, near the tele phone exchange, when she heard the radio In the store broadcasting Man aHer Hammond's appeal. Mrs. Thor nc!l immedttftely dashed for the tele phone office next door, leaving her lunch untasted on the table, and Joining In helping keep the telephone subscribers pacified. Another Interesting feature of the emergency, according to Manager Hammond, was the extraordinarily long conversations Indulged In by pertton who succeeded In getting their connection. This long use of lines, mainly in discussion of recent events hero, was the underlying cause of the number of "line Is busy" re ports given out by the operators as they answered the calls.

Mar. 17. yp) In a mood of obvious optimism and hope fulness, members of the Western Pine association met here today In their annual business session. One reason for the optimism was a statistical report which showed that While in December, 1932. the average price for Ponderosa pine was $14.81, In February of this year the price had increased to $15.53. The association today adopted a resolution petitioning railroads to base their rates on the net weight of fruit, regardless of the weight of the container. This, it waa said, would materially increase the use of wooden boxes The lumbermen said that while wooden containers weigh more than other types, they are more sub stantial and Insure less loss of frit.

Austria and southern Germany last train communication to connect with the new fast liners, Rex and Conte dl Savota. Several smaller projects bring the total mileage to be electrified to 3.735. of which 1,648 miles are double tracked. Added to the 1,350 miles already electrified, this will bring the total to 3,975, or. 41 per cent of all the trackage In Italy. .
