" From now on, any bad service need not be ascribed to 'war condition',' and not reported. We should be promptly advised when things go wrong." B. V.. Sunny, ptesident of the Chicago Telephone Company, now the Illinois Hell Telephone Company, gave the dcta:i of the company's struggle to improve servu e conditions at his annual luncheon to the company's supervising forces. Mr. Sunny said: "We started 1920 with a shortage of 1431 operators. We should have had 8436 on the payroll and we had 7005. Heavy traffic and the " Flu" made matters worse in the spring months, so that the compaicn to secure additional help was pushed vigorously. During May and June intensive recruiting brought a large number cf new people, so that the capacity of the Operators" Training Department- was overtaxed. 797 new people were employed in one week alone, and it became rccessary to train many of them at the Ccntr.il Offices. Conditions were bad all through the summer, nor did they improve greatly until September and October, since when the change has been marked and rnost favorable. "In a metropolitan exchange like Chicago, for the purpose of comparison, an arbitrary figure known as a "Traffic rating is compiled Iron the varum important service items. The ideal ratine rhntili ! :.u is 70. This figure is technical and not be confused with percentages. ;th regard to this traffic rating 1:1 June, Chicago was 27; in July 2'); August and September 31; October 40; November 4", while in the early part of December, for the first time in thirty-six months, we reached 71. The requirements ot pood service are that Q4 nrr cent of the calls be answered i t in less than ten seconds. As a matter vi (i fact, at the time this report was written, c5.2 of all of the calls were with.n ten seconds. "Another requirement is that r5.4 per cent of the calls he free frcm opcrjri-ic errors, while we reached a pcrvent,ije (f S.y per crr.t.
