TELEPHONES are in greater de- -1- than ever before—even greater than in 1941, an all-time record year. By far the greater part of this demand is for residence telephones. Only a part of this unpreced- ented volume of orders can be ;filled if we are to, have anything left for the camps and depots and air schools of our armed forces—for the plants and' offices of our war indus- tries. Already telephone materials are difficult to obtain. Reserves are steadily diminishing, even though we are re -conditioning and re -using every last piece of eclfaipment that can be salvaged. There can be only one answer: war needs must get first call on available supplies. Even when ne- cessity demands new installations, not all types of instruments and . services will be available. The Wartime Prices and Trade Board established by the Gover- nor -in -Council under the' War Measures Act, has directed us roto do all such things as may be requisite to conserve,,anyand all telephone plant and facilities!' We realize that this will cause inconvenience—perhaps even hard- ship. We shall need your help in working out wise and just solutions to the telephone problems of your community. And we know 'that you will give it cheerfully, as still another necessary contribution to victory. ,Oh 4t9' t 4e9B P. D. WILSON, Manager.
