For doing business and keeping in touch w ith friends, overseas telephone service has become an everyday tool, in its twenty-two years, the calling rate has jumped from about 2,300 calls a year to 6 0 0 ,0 0 0 . Today, you r voice can be sent over short-wave radio to ninety-four per cent of the w orld’s telephones ...over circuits as long as 8,000 miles. 3. In 19 2 7 , the lowest overseas rate from the West was $84.00. N ow the maximum to most countries is $12.00 (plus ta x ) for three minutes. Many calls cost less. Making it possi ble to call almost anyone, at low cost, is another way we’ve made your telephone more valuable. 2 . Skilled tech n ician s in the circuit control room keep constant watch on their equip ment to make sure your voice can hurdle the earth and still sound about as clear as a cross- tow n call. And overseas service is easy to use. Your Long Distance operator will give you the rates, the best time to c a ll. . . and set up an appointm ent call for you if you wish.
