REQUESTS "This Christmas, war needs the telephone wires, which will make it increasingly difficult to handle the volume of Christmas and New Year's greetings to dis-tant cities. War never takes a holiday! Since lines already are carrying a heavy volume of war calls, it will not be possible to complete as many holiday long distance calls." This statement was made by Eugene Jenkins, manager of the Mountain States Tel.. and Tel. company, who added that per-sons who do not make their us-ual holiday long distance calls this year will be making a real contribution to the war effort. "Speeding war calls through without delay is the first order of business for the telephone company," Mr. Jenkins said, "and for the past six months the company has urged telephone users to make only those long distance calls that are essential and urgent." D. E. Cummings, 42, Denver, Colo., director of the division of industrial hygiene, department of medicine at the University of Colo., was killed in the crash of a Western Air Lines transport Tuesday 30 miles west of Provo.
