The Bell System the largest source
of Radar for our fighting forces
This is not surprising for Radar de
velopment and production stems
from the same roots that produced
and continue to nourish this coun
try's telephone system.
Radar, the instrument which
enabled our land, sea and air
forces to spot enemy targets
through darkness, smoke or fog, was one of the outstand
ing fighting instruments of the war.
Two years before Pearl Harbor the Government asked
Bell Telephone Laboratories to put its wide experience ,
and knowledge of electronics to work to help perfect
Radar as a military instrument. From then on the Labo
ratories cooperated closely in the Radar program with
the National Defense Research Committee, with Army;
and Navy specialists, and with scientists of Great Britain
The Western Electric Company, manufacturing branch
of the Bell System, became the Nation's largest supplier
of Radar systems. One type it made was universally used
by B-29's in the Pacific for navigation, target Jocation
and high altitude bombing. Another played an impor
tant part in aiming the guns on our warships.
If you're waiting for a home telephone, it helps a little
to know that Radar is one of the reasons. For years tele
phone manufacturing plants were devoted to war needs

OOD forestry which seeks to keep
American forests continuously at
work growing successive timber crops
is just one long battle with FIRE, say
dost foresters.
Nature is bountiful, trees reproduce
and grow rapidly, thrive to maturity
quickly on lands which have been cut
over, if seed sources and young seed
lings are not consumed and the land
rendered sterile by forest enemy Num

Devastated forest areas are usually
