THS BELL SYSTEM IS BUILDIKO AHEAD Of THE 00WTH Of THE COUKTRY This is the telephone's job and goal The United States is developing; a new civilization. The telephone is an indispensable element in it. The Bell System is building ahead of the growth of this civilization. In 1929 the telephone budget for land and buildings is 54 million dollars, with new build bgs rising in aco cities. New equipment for central . offices will cost I42 millions ; exchange lines 1 20 mil lions; toll lines 119 millions. The Bell System's total expenditure for plant and service improvements this year will be 559 mil lion dollars. This outlay is required because the telephone is a universal servant of this democracy. Business uses it to create more prosperity. Homes use it for com fort and protection, lor keeping friendships alive anl enriching life. Its general use enables each per sonality to extenditself without regard to distance. The telephone ideal is that anyone, anvwhere, shall be able to talk quickly and at reasonable cost with anyone, anywhere else. There is no standing still in the Bell System.
