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.

F
AID IS BESOUGHT
PORTLAND. 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.
E
SYSTEM IS PLAN
MlIiAN. Italy. ; ''Whlto coal"
flowing down from the Alps and Ap
ennines will drive 41 per cent of he
Italian railroads when Mussolini's
present program of hydro-electrification
la completed.
The full plan for the next five
years Just published, reveala the gov
ernment's determination to continue
the electrification of these projects:
The two main lines from Milan to
Regglo Calabria, In the toe of Italy,
one passing through Bolongna-Plor-enee
the other through Qenoa-Plsa.
The ' line across the north from
Turin to Trlest.
The roads from the port of Oenol
to the Alpine passes of Slmplon and
St. Oothard. thus giving Swlteerland.
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. .
Thle kingdom calculates she al
ready saves 700,000 tons of coal yearly
by using hydro-electric power, since
all the ooal ah uses must be Import
ed, this assists her foreign trade bal-
