From the beginning it was forbidden to speak in Basque by telephone in Hego Euskal Herria. The press collected: “It is forbidden to speak in Catalan, Valencian, Asturian, Basque and Galician through this apparatus. The telegraph worker will be punished with the penalty of suspending the conversation, as it is his responsibility to hear what is said in the announcements.
