. Recently young men starting on the job
of building telephone lines in and around
Columbus, Dayton and Toledo discovered
that the familiar blue bell insignia on their
trucks bore the name The Illinois Bell
Telephone Co." That seemed strange until
their foremen explained:
"Those trucks from Illinois are the reason
you fellows are on the job. The Illinois
company had some trucks it could spare for
a while We didn't have enough to 20
around So we rented nine trucks for several
months to get on with our job"
This bit of "lend-lease" between two associ.
ated companies of the Bell System is one
reason we've been able to install 10000
telephones in the last six months. This
means we're moving ahead on the road to
wipe out all applications for service that
piled up during the war and to bring more
and better telephone service for everyone.

 MT. Seidenverg proposed to CO., relate such information as may he gathered before the next meet ing of the City Council, and lay the project before them for their consideration, and approval, in that the City's sponsorship is needed in order to give impetus to such an organization, and also open the way to various sources of federal financing.
 Letters have been written to Civic Centers in Anchorage, Ket- chikan and Kodiak, for details concerning financing, organization and up-keep. A letter is also being sent to the National Recrea- tional Association in New York City, for organization details. MT. A. Polet volunteered to write to Col. Henry Clark, manager of the Alaska Development Board, who is at present in Washington, DC, to ascertain what must be done in order to obtain federal funds for a project such as our Civic Center.
 The Committee feels that this Civic center is essential to the welfare of the community in which we live. It is hoped to secure the support of every mem- Der of the community, both mor- ally and financially for the pro- ject, following it's sponsorship by the City Government.
