"WE'D RATHER
We don't like to tell people that they'll have to wait to
get a home telephone. We'd much rather say "yes" to
requests for service. That's the way it used to be. .
But the needs of war have first claim on available
telephone equipment and on telephone manufacturing
facilities and manpower. Delays in filling civilian
orders just can't be helped.
All of us telephone people sincerely appreciate the
co-operative understanding being shown by the many
thousands who are waiting their turn to get service.
