: construction crews Who DO their duty,
runs back over the space Of many
years. II brings you into expert
ment stations and testine rooms
and laboratories. It covers innumer-
. able experiments and improvements.
Every step forward In the develop
ment OF telephony has been over q
gigantic scIap heap. Bells original
transmittcr has seventy-three de-
scendants. Fifty-three types and styles
OF transmitters have been introduced
since 1877. Within ten years the Bell
System spent for construction and re-
construction an amount more than
equal to the present hook value of the
entire plant.
And what is true OF trapsmitters and
receivers is even truer OF all that lies
between the terminals OF the trans
continental line. for it IS In this field
that the engineers had their real proc
lens. To I'LL In the gap between Den
YER and the Coast with wires and poles
was comparatively. simple. The task
they confronted was to begin at New
York and working all along the line,
make the multitudinous improvements
necessary for 3.400 mile talk. Trans
mftters, switchboards, metallic circuits,
hard-drawn copper wire and loading
coils all had to be attuned to the trans
continental keynote. There's hint Of
the real achievement in what the engi-
neers did with thu loading coil. When
the loading coil let the hands Of It's
inventor 1t was as large as key, and
the fire iron wires inside 1t cost mint
to make. To-day the loading coil is a.
few inches In size, and ~ the New
York-San Francisco line there are 49,
900 miles of that wire whose cost OF
manufacture is comparatively low.
Big Problems Solved.
For those In the Dcy Street Offices
there was striking proof that the prob
lem of transmitting speech is not
solved by any loud-speaking trans.
mftter in the replica OF Bells invention
that lay before them. They realized
as they looked at that instrument,
crude in the light of all that has hap
pened to transmitter3 since, what the
engineers had accomplished to make II
speak across the whole United States.
They saw that 1t was not question CT

imaginable. 1t is mere breath. And
the engineer must preserve and hurry

taneously the thousands CT minute

Vail said:

Nine Million Telephones.
But proud as telephone engineers
are OF what they have accomplished,
they will tell you that this trans
continental line Is by 70 means
the last word in the telephones de-
velopment in this country. The new
line is the backbone of network OF
| 21,0O0,000 miles OF wire woven round
100000 telephone stations of the
Bell System. The completion Of this
line Is q mighty step forward toward
that ideal Of universal service preached
by President Vail and his associates
back in thet Seventies. As they inter
preted universal service, II meant that
anyone anywhere could speak to any
one anywhere In this country by TAX
ing his telephone receiver on the hook.
The line Is still In the hands of the
engineers. There Is on amount OF field
