If you're sharing a telephone party line,*you’re
helping someone else here have telephone serv-
ice now. Otherwise he'd likely be waiting hi*
turn for service.
Party-line service is one way of stretching the
telephone system here—to serve as many peo-
ple as possible now instead of asking some to
wait until we’ve had time to put in the wires and
cables and switching equipment needed to serve
everybody who is waiting.
It a a big job—catching up with four years of
backed-up demand. But we’re hard at it As
soon as possible, we’il bring service to every-
body who is waiting for it. And, after that, we
expect to be able to furnish one-family tele-
phone service to those who want it.
