War has not only stopped the manufacture of telephone equipment for civilians, but has made many more people want telephones. Since the National Defense program began in 1940, we have been hard at work supplying the needs of the Army, Navy, war producers and the public. There has been a net increase of 4½ million in the number of Bell System telephones.

The Russian chorus, featuring the Mazurka, as interpreted by Ann Avon Chew, Marilyn Hargrove in the Trepak, the Cossack by Diane Schroeder, were brilliant and beautiful. Other numbers too numerous to Since the National Defense program began in 1940, we have been hard at work supplying the needs of the Army, Navy, war producers and the public. There has been a net increase of 4½ million in the number of Bell System telephones in service. This has used up our normal reserves, so there may be a delay in moving service and there probably will be a delay in establishing new service. Switchboards are carrying more lines and calls than they were designed for. Every telephone facility we have has been pressed into service. If you’re waiting for a telephone, we want you to know we’re doing our best to serve you as soon as we can.
