Peace 1 "I An abundance of materials for telephone construction purposes, an alwayi j i available supply of labor, a well knit business organization, and normal and S gjl long- anticipated demands for service " ' Telephone service of the type that the Rocky Mountain West received in thos H pre-war days was within the bounds of possibility. i H 1 ' War '. I !jj . But then came the day when the nation squared' its jaw and turned its face I s toward war when industry in general lined up behind the nation in one p !? solid phalanx to bring about the Great Result. E Wf There was no longer an abundance of labor and material available for any - - &j purpose not directly connected with the prosecution of the war. Thousands - 5): f highly trained telephone men and women were called, upon to devote all f. !' . their time and skill to meeting the needs 'of the government. ' And neither was there the same normal demand 'for service. The candle was i burned at both ends. While the supplies of the things that made service) .- I sjj possible at all fell far below normal, the demand for the service rose steadily i sj , until the daily number of calls reached tremendous proportions. d During this period we rendered the best telephone service that war-time con- I w ditions would permit, but it wan not and could not be the same type of ser- r ? vice that the public enjoyed in days of Peace. c I Reconstruction 1 s: We have gone through the troubled period of war and we face to-day the g . important period of reconstruction. - m t But it has not been possible to overcome in a few months the handicaps im- j& 1 4 posed by nearly two years of restricted construction, v New buildings and ! 1 completed switchboards cannot be improvised nor can large numbers of addi- 1 g tional employees be, trained to the highest point of efficiency in so short a j period of time. ... , We ave not yet been able, under these conditions, to bring your telephone 1 servxce back to the same high standards that characterized it in pre-war days. k I, But the same policy of striving to give the Best Telephone Servioe in the ' World still exists, and to-day our efforts ore centered in the work of supply- J5 ;! ing the most efficient service that the present unsettled conditions will Eg II permit, m r May we expect your confidence and cooperation while waiting for . - 1 t that period of normality to which all business is looking forward?
