If everyone who uses the tel ephone talked just 30 sec onds less on each local call, the aggregate saving in time for our war-busy equipment would be about 7,000,000 minutes each av erage working day or over 13 years. That's important time-saving these days when tele phone lines are so crowded , with calls, including military and government calls that help fight the war. Won't you try to shorten your local calls not just 30 seconds but all that's pos sible? It will help a lot, too, if you can manage to make fewer local calls.
