The reconstruction of the complex telephone requires cable, special materials and trained personnel. And everything is Not yet again sufficiently available. The ongoing repair of the inadequate and outdated telephones goes hand in hand with the establishment of new plants. As a result of constant overload of the offices remained intact, the power consumption has risen to double. Temporary shutdowns in the rush hour is unavoidable. Also for long-distance traffic is only a small part of the former technical facilities are available. The post is therefore often forced to allocate long distance.
The individual measures are Of course according to the requirements of each post Directorate.
More recently came also the overseas telephone traffic, which previously was operated by Allied telegraph companies, again under German administration. On this occasion, a small ceremony was Instead of in Frankfurt.

02. News Flashes From Germany:

a. Town Maps

03. News Flashes From Everywhere:

a. Haile Selassie
Haile Selassie, the Emperor of Ethiopia, has become famous for the modern administration and organisation of his country. Western-European and American experts are advising him.

04. Japan Today:

Homeless people
Japan also knows the problem of refugees and homeless people. The railway station in Tokio, once a landmark of the Japanese capital, is now the refuge of thousands of the homeless. They lie on stairs and seek for warmth under the vaults. Raids are often made by M.P. and Relief organisations. Children and grown-ups in want get something to eat immediately. More than 200 people starved to death here last year. Trucks bring these poor human beings to homes and shelters of relief organisations. But again and again these under-earth vaults are filled with new refugees.

[...]. A problem of today:

The telephone ...
Who doesn't know the trouble of a telephone call today? In almost all German towns the telephone establishments of the post offices were damaged. Munich formerly had 60,000 telephone lines - - and now 25,000. Repair of this complicated apparatus requires cables, special material and skilled personnel. With the reinstalment of new lines regular repair of the old telephones is done. Caused by the steady over-loading of the lines still in working order, consumption of current has doubled. So temporary cut-offs can not be avoided, also long distance calls had to be "rationed". Recently oversea telephone communication - - which up to now was in the hands of Allied corporations - - was put under German administration; this was the occasion of a little ceremony in Frankfurt.
