Maintainin Telephone Service j Sisndards . i' v I As America girds for national defense, the Southern Bell Company's aim is not only to meet the increasing telephone demands of government and industry, bur to continue rendering %igh quality service to the individual user. Despite the necessity for training numerous new employes, and caring for a record increase in telephones and volume of jills, the service has generally xtntinued at a high standard. Telephone -men and women ?re continuing to furnish friendly, helpful and tcchnittlly flirient service. These trained and experienced workers and their management are accustomed to working together and to planning ahead under conditions jniposcd by emergencies. , The workers, while meeting ihc rapidly expanding defense telephone requirements, are suing for the needs of the in dividual user in ever)' way they can under existing conditions. Th? telephone organization is doing its best to see that during these times of national anergency you continue to dejm: the greatest possible advantage t com your use of the service.

But the legislators know that the heavier axes \t ill fall due next March, "in j in election year, aiitl- they are ' a*J laid that the dose will be too heart for some voters.

For the first time n many months, the Congressmen ire actually hoping for a letter, and iost4ard' demand front hack home that non-defense spending be dashed-' If they don't get support front ionic, then the Washington htireau rats will triumph and (lie people imply will have to keep <?n paying axes for defense plus taxes for vasteful spending. ??o?One thing tliat stimulated I he fer or behind this telepathic plea for ic stitueut support is that some fl- ! tires liave been passed around 011 , 'apitol Hill translating tax and de ; 'ease billions into terms that .nn'y-j dy can understand. Figures, tile sokms realize, may | boring to a lot ol people ? but J lie> rliink they aren't so lioring 1 hen they are expressed in a size j hat fits tile average man's pocketmok.

Ionian and child, Hut even thaat von't fitly the defense load. for defense aloue, expenditures his year will average $llu per peron. Next year, they will amount to 181! per person. So that despite the act that taxes will be more than ouhled, defense expenditures alone vill bo only about half paid. Cousequently, if the non-defenso expenditures a rent, lleduced, ;them he solons will fiad themselves dou ding the taxes and more than douiling tho deficit. That, some of hem think, isn't a very sound hitig to do. Those figures are sound, hut ome others that are being bruited round are, a lot less applicable. Ihlney .Hlllinan is the author of oino of tlieni. He says, for instaue. that In lf'40. four days of labor vera lost by accidents to each one ost by strikes. That much of the , truth sounds ine,.

According to records of the High way Safety division, only one of the nine fatal accident's involving "hike" riders was clearly chargeable to a motor vehicle operator, and 11 of the bicycle, riders killed in the State last year were violating traffic laws or safety rules at the time they were killed.
