To Speed Long
Distance Calls
The Air Force’s 1929 Communi
cations Group, which operates the
Alaska Communication System, an
nounced today that they expect a
record volume of telephone calls
to and from Alaska duriivg the
coming holidays.
Additional stateside circuits will
be activated for the holiday period
in order to handle the heavy traf
fic load.
To speed service, the Air Force
suggests that persons planning to
make long distance calls during
the holidays secure in advance the
telephone numbers to be called.
When exchange of telephone
-
numbers by personal correspond
ence is not possible, the Air Froce
will secure in advance the re
quested telephone numbers with
no charge to the customer. This
service is available by contacting
the long distance operator and ask
ing for the telephone number of
the person to be called.
The Air Force called attention
to the fact that the reduced rate
for holiday calls will extend from
6 p.m. Monday, Dec. 24, through
4:30 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 26. Re
duced rates will also apply during
the corresponding New Year’s
period.
