The thought of preparedness
is not new to Bell Telephone
workers. In fact, the South'!
and the nation's vast telephone
system is what it is today main
ly because preparedness is one
of the fundamental principles
of the B.ill System's policy.
Telephone people are constantly
at war with the elements,
fire, flood and hurricane. They
are prepared in advance to
meet the emergency whenever
and wherever danger strikes.
Rapidly changing industrial
demands?shifting populations
?quick expansions in some
places and contractions at
others?ever-changing problems
of supply and demand, are
conditions under which all telephone
people are accustomed
to working.
Years of experience in anticipating,
planning for and meeting
these exacting demands
strengthen the confidence of
telephone workers in their ability
to provide for the needs of
the South and the nation under
any conditions that may arise.
