CONSTRUCTION
PROGRAM @
is under way
...Telephone service for those
waiting Is first goal of
$1 40,000,000 project
The postwar telephone construction and
improvement program already has started. It is a
$140,000,000 program designed, first, to catch up
with the demand for service, and second, to pro-
vide telephone users with the most adequate and
modern service possible in the years ahead.
Service for woitlng applicants
We are making thousands of new telephones, hun-
dreds of miles of cable and wire, and equipment to
expand scores of central offices. As facilities become
available, we are putting in telephones in proper
turn for those waiting.
New telephone instruments are being installed
as rapidly as they are delivered, and by the first of
the year—or shortly thereafter—we shall be able
to furnish service for those waiting in neighbor-
hoods wtarre there already is enough central office
equipment and coble to connect thefr telephone*.
The slower, more complicated job of building
and installing central office equipment,in the many
towns where it is needed, is bring pushed. A lot of
progress will be made by the middle of 1946, and
most of this job should be completed by the end of
the year.
Service will be even better
When waiting custc ers have been served, the job
of expanding the te phone system to provide the
kind and amount of service ’* -ople want wil 1 get
into full swing. These incluu- i.vidual lines and
residence extensions. More .. . pment and the
most modern devices also will be added.
Hundreds of miles of long distance lines will be
placed in underground cable, and steps will be
taken to introduce in some places a system by
which operators can dial telephones in distant
citiea.
In the next five years, we plan to inst ' 900
new rural telephones, more than doubllr., .m-
ber of farm telephones in this territory.
The conversion of telephone exchanges from
manual to dial telephones will be resumed.
Mobile radiotelephoning — whereby drivers of
busses, trucks, and automobiles can talk through
the central telephone system- will be developed.

Besides the $140,000,000 for special construction
and improvement, another $100,000,000 will be
