From where I sit ... 61 Joe Marsh
Jeb Had the Folks
in Stitches!
At the Friday Night Social,
Jeb Crowell had the audience in
stiUhes doing a take-off on the
bl lute ring character who belittles
everybody and everything that isn't
from his own home town.
Well, we can laugh at that sort
of character because from where
I sit, Americans are just the op
posite. We like to boast a bit per
haps, about the paint job on the
new barn, or the missus' style of
cooking but we aren't intolerant
of people who don't think or act
exactly the same way we do.
In our town, for instance : Some
folks like band concerts, others
don't some families serve beer
with dinner, others, buttermilk
and as for politics, there's plenty of
healthy disagreement.
But when it comes to denying
folks the right to think or act as
they choose ... no, we're like you
we don't believe in it, whether it
goes for serving beer, or speaking
one's mind on public affairs.

1. Imagine packing 500 voices together
in a tube no bigger than a pencil and sort
ing them out distinctly at the end! That's
what we're doing with coaxial cable. Radio
type waves whisk calls through pipes. ..in
stead of on wires.. .allowing one "co-ax" to
to do the work of a number of the more
usual kinds of long distance cable.
Uaa ?m&ti Lid II..
2. We plant "co-ax" with giant plows that
lay the cable in one operation. Every eight
miles a "booster station" keeps calls going
through clearly. For incredible as it seems
high frequency waves fade so rapidly in
the cable that all the sun's energy, if it could
be funncled into the pipes, would not carry
half-way across the country.
Millions of new work
ing dollars, needed to ex
tend and improve service, must
come not from telephone bills
but from thousands of people
who put their savings to work
in the telephone business. To
attract these working dollars,
we must pay a reasonable
amount for their use. We can
do this only if we sell our serv
ice! at fair and adequate prices.
3. "End of the line".. .it takes huge panels
of complex equipment like this to sort out
the calls carried by just one cable. Since De
cember, calls have been going back and forth
from the Coast to the East over 2300 miles
of "co-ax." And we're adding still more
cables to augment long distance service for the
growing telephone population on the Coast
