This was the Dixie of romance and leisurely life.
Dixie that still lives that memory
but today there's a new sound that new tempo the land of promise
that may come a land of accomplishment. Signs of progress are everywhere.
Business is booming this thing but the levees must be

Aluminum plant grain elevator

that brought that southern end of the modern ship.
Building practice follows the assembly man welded on the ground massive

better than the best they can
and then they are an essential
part of the industrial sector.
Within the area
or a constant flow of raw material everywhere the telephone quickens
that pulse of industry.
Automobile assembly and the growing activity in normal production plants
that turn out over a thousand cars every working day
factories make millions of tires and tubes to supply the industry.
And to keep the family car rolling on Robert

Today impressive administration building

transportation enjoys an enviable position from her docks trade goods move

and the answering inbound flow across as I was going to bed in a mounting strain
the call to adventure response among passengers leaving on a holiday cruise
visitors come down the gangway at the Sounded good wishes mingled with good byes

Well that's
the big get underway places for the News

Another vital element in the transportation.
That is the railroad passenger service powered trains operate on frequent
modern airlines crisscross the city of other region

many travelers remained to cast their lot with this land of opportunity
as careful a sense
of a project.
One of America's great atomic energy ways

But it will be connected with the railroad

river past the project millions of gallons of atomic energy

Guys craft industry the lessons learned in World War two
They work as the propeller plane back into the crowd.
Thank God the freedom of the world
as the number one training ground for the nation's.
Defense becomes a very personal matter as the best of America is conditioned
on the project there is always the chance of a telephone visit as an elder
that has no equal.
But the ladies and courteous attendant make
that visit
when the call is ready to record the proper requirements of the military
camp a tremendous but as they call go through.
Welcome words wing across
that there's been a
revenue call got plenty of you meant

that called the businessman housewife
and all the others who turn for the telephone to get the message through
their things directly to the progress on mammoth
that Manda vast opportunities whether they turn out today because the reality
of their demands on those who would serve any
requirements been so great many kinds of telephone fidelity
to the challenge of progress telephone research has developed many marvelous
devices which I helping to meet the increasing communication of the is the coaxial
cable thousands of miles.
The length
and breadth of cable buried underground carries hundreds of telephone
conversations and radio and television
and news reports as well as requiring vast quantities
of special equipment frequently the
cable train to take on a pole real
new cable is bet into the machine like a thread into a needle with this done.
Cloud alarm goes off again behind the tract as Blade opening up beating the cable
into the ground and filling the trench behind.
Much country.
The train back on track to try to almost disappear
and there's a tense moment until they come through.
Somehow they manage to keep going and finally reach for Mardi Gras.
It's a little easier going through the pine a woods and eventually a man
and equipment break through into the old ones
beyond the trees the train really starts rolling
where cable ends meet.
Crisis complete a painstaking job of joining securely
again
while the sections are still being laid out or is replaced.
This calls for special underwater cables
and equipment which includes a cable laying by
piled into a king sized convenience
and the sections together before the cable goes into the
thing itself isn't a tubing is cut away the wires can be joined with the
Prado exact to have a common axis and.
This combination. Actually the tubes
that I think days underground superhighways of communication as I may then
carefully covered with fabric steel

moves from dockside to those with one hand joining with the landscape.
And the brain in very slowly
begins to move things is on the way
there's a heavy tide running this however good the
crew with cables with smooth
final passes through the guides to drop us the
run is over
and trucks with line attacks bringing the cable
head calling from the truck hauling the underwater cable to the spot where
it will meet the man they knew
linking together.
And countryside America let communications pay market cable
today's communications needs tremendous
and telephone engineer's through radio relay.
The airwaves to help in the big job more
and more telephone calls now radio relay with their shake than ten a
link areas of the south in a mighty network Green Line expanding telephone
require construction of the radio relay system crews joined together on
the ground
and waveguides begin to take these guide through which tiny
radio waves pass from antenna to amplifier
and back to antenna many sections are soon
on their way to the busy crews along
their carbon into position by agile workman two crews stopping at the center of the
tower work in opposite directions one going up the other down to speed
and work progresses steadily upward as the top most cruel
labors with short put it efficiently
or waveguides will connect with antenna which look like giant hard on the top.
The top spread around town as work
and one pair picks up the incoming signal
and passes it through our wave guide to amplifying equipment below.
After being boosted about ten million times in strength.
That's the wave guide to the companion antenna which sends in its way critical
adjustment keeps the radio be Monday could.
Final adjustment is made and waveguide and the antenna I join this is
that all can be guided to

there first with terrain.
They are hearing from several hundred feet to a chubby little power topping America
will do the same

apart where possible existing telephone buildings are used to house amplifying
equipment.
Elations deference to the one important thing service.
The service is an exacting one urgent messages have been underground
that lets out the band more
and more on their expanding telephones as the Southern
Belle has responded by bringing new rides erecting new buildings
laying new cable installing new equipment connecting new telephones
in record breaking proportions
and yet the call of the few tourists were still more and more off.
For more investments and equipment than serving.
People the telephone business is a business
that we make your telephone system come alive
when you let your telephone receiver separately operate
the engineer the construction mat
the crap.
Killed in underground line installed
by the service representatives in the business office.
It is these and the other telephone men
and women in many different jobs so certainly whether your calling across
southern belle people take pride in serving this community and the growing size
and helping to regions rich from the promise of the past have gone
today a solid achievement in barrel will keep growing with the new South
meeting her needs and serving for.
