A wartime public notice explains how government restrictions and worker losses crippled civilian phone service after 1939. The company cites increased long distance calls, shortages of equipment, and a 16 000 person waiting list in Myrtle Point, Oregon, as it plans to restore service when supplies and staff return.

A wartime notice explains overloaded systems since 1939 with surging long distance calls. It cites scarce equipment and workers, promises new lines and telephones as manufacturers deliver, and asks subscribers for patience until normal conditions return and service is restored to former efficiency.
