STEPPING INTO A MODERN WORLD
Charting tomorrow's telephone needs
Looking ahead — laying a firm foundation for tomorrow's telephone service — has long been a keystone policy of the Bell System.
To illustrate; business starts creeping into a residential district — a sign that greatly increased telephone facilities will be required. Through intensive studies, commercial engineers forecast the needs
of five or more years hence with scientific accuracy. Additional exchanges, cable ducts, equipment of all kinds are planned and built. When the call comes the telephone company is ready.
So long as the nation continues to change and grow, the plotting of its future telephone needs will never grow dull. The opportunity is there!
