How we're guarding your telephone lifelines Making sure service will be ready to help meet any emergency is one of our important jobs today Just as our nation is girding its strength against enemy attack though it may never happen so are we protecting one of our country's first-line weapons of defense the telephone. And a good share of this protection is in the very nature of the telephone sys tem itself. In its size, for instance. Today there are some 45 million telephones at work in the nation, interconnected by an intricate network of more than 150 million miles of circuits. There's further protection, too, in the variety of communications facilities we use cable above and below ground, open wire, microwave radio. And these facilities are widely dispersed all over the map ...so that if any section of one route is cut, calls can be re-routed over alternate paths while repairs are being made. In certain key cities, we're setting up facilities to handle emergency long distance calls at outlying locations independent of the main switching center. If the main switchboards were damaged, these cities could get their calls through via the suburban offices. Perhaps most important of all are the men and women who make telephone service possible. They know their jobs and you can be sure that their spirit of service will do much to keep the voicelines of communication open in any emergency. a'iawMWi TTW i'ill'yuia)aw IRaiaaei -a aaaaalHaaaiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaMailaav- I J W&v i I - - - 4. 1 Xv- 'N v 1 fog) ?77 . T( ' 1A ft I ft I Your telephone is one of today's best bargains The sort of service you and our nation can depend on at any time is one of the values you've come to expect from your tele phone system. And you buy this service today at prices which are a good buy in any budget your hom's or your nation's. Radio trucks are spotted in many locations through the West to "bridge" breaks in wire lines. Emergency materials, too, are stockpiled in many places. Our vast network of long distance routes makes destruction at any one point as relatively ineffective as toeding a tiny pebble through a giant spider web. Pacific Telephone
