NEW TELEPHONE MAP OF THE
Call -speeding plan divides country into
r,"7",,, T' "RX"' " - - - . -yrrU
1. Long Distance operators in many Western cities are
"Jready putting through calls with "push-button" equip
ment like this.. .as the program to speed up cross-country
calls moves ahead. The program divides the nation into
some eighty areas... each with a three-digit code. Your
area's code, plus your own number, will distinguish your
telephone from all others in the United States and parts
of Canada.
3. We're making progress in extending this new "push
button" plan. But it will, of course, be some time before
it's used universally. Meanwhile, Long Distance service
has been restored to prewar quality or better. And the
cost? You can call anywhere in the nation for not more
than $2.50, plus tax, at the day station rate for three
minutes. Even less after six in the evening. A real value.

tlie East. Magic? Almost. But it's done many times each day.
2. Today, nine out or ten Long Distance calls are put
through while you stay on the line. Many of these calls
are completed in less than thirty seconds. And here's
a tip for better service: If you give the operator the
number you want, she can often put your call through
three times as fast as if you give just the name and
address. So it's a good idea to keep a list of the out-of-town
numbers you call.
