KEYS TO BETTER CALLING -how we improve
service and keep your out-of-town calls low in cost
imMi ' ' ' ' ljj ' ' '"'
Today, your long distance calls can go through
in seconds where it once took minutes. Why? In most
cases,' operators like those in the top picture speed your
out-of-town calls straight through with push-button dial
ing. Or perhaps you live in a place where you dial them
direct yourself. And today's fast long distance phoning is
yours at low cost, too. We've made it that way with radio
relay and cable networks that carry thousands of calls at
once. With tiny transistors that cut down space and power
needs. These improvements have helped us make long dis
tance phoning a pleasure anytime. A pleasure, as the box
at the right shows, that's priced right for everybody. ,
