GEORGIA POWER COMPANY Tide Turning in Battle Against Abusive, Obscene Telephone Calls The tide is turning in' the battle against abusive and ob scene telephone callers, the Bell System reports. Dramatic increases in arrests and convictions have been re corded in the wake of a tele phone company publicity pro gram to stir public awareness of the problem, according to W. B. Smith, local Southern Bell Manager. “This campaign has been backed up by the establish ment of annoyance calling bureaus, special training for thousands of telephone em nloyees and the use of a va riety of techniques to trace calls,” he said. The police and the public are working closely with the Bell System. The telephone company collects evidence which determines the tele phone line being used to make the offending calls. Then, if the victim chooses to prose cute, the law identifies and ap prehends the caller. How successful has the cam paignl been? The figures speak for themselves. In 1963 there were 165 arrests and 110 con victions of annoyance callers in areas where Bell System companies operate. This rose to 273 arrests and 189 convic tions in 1964, and 474 arrests and 358 convictions in 1965. Then last year, when the Bell System began l its cam paign to stop such calls, there were 836 arrests and 788 con victions —about a 100 per cent increase over the previ ous year.

XXX UNITED STATES BREWERS ASSOCIATION, INC. VcUO 3390 PEACHTREE RD., ATLANTA GA. 30326 ~ this year alone, there have been 389 convictions. Since the Bell system began keeping tabs on annoyance calls last year, it has received one million reports. The file has been closed successfully on more than 90 per cent of them; work continues on the remainder of the cases invol ving repetitive offenses. The report come in at a rate of 50,000 to 60,000 each month and although this is a very small percentage of the Sys tem’s 10 billion completed calls each month, it is big e nough to constitute a serious problem. The best advice the Bell System offers customers is to hang up whenever they receive an annoying call. This us ually deprives the obsene call er of the .main thing he wants —an audience. However, should the calls continue, the person receiving them is en couraged to call the telephone business office where people have been trained to advise and assist customers who ask for help. If the call involves a serious threat of bodily harm or dam age to property, telephone people swing into action im mediately. They also advise the customer to call the police. However, if the need for such immediate action is not pres ent when the calls have been obscene or otherwise annoy ing or abusive, the customer is asked to keep a detailed log of future calls and to note such things as the date, time State Approved Auto Safety Inspection Station Now located at Sid's Service on Highway 3 301 North Nahunta.
