SITE of NEW OMAHA PLANT Company meets Community Nebraska watches as state and local officials together with representatives of Western Electric meet on the site of a new factory near Omaha. This new plant, to be completed in 1959, will add some 1,800,000 square feet of space to our manufacturing operations and will bring more than 4,000 new jobs to the Omaha area. And in other cities and towns— perhaps yours— Western Electric construction activity is benefiting local economy ... as we build up our capacity to make or provide more equipment and supplies economically for the Bell telephone companies. Right now we've got more than 5,000,000 square feet of new space under way. This activity— besides creating new jobs and new business on the local level— illustrates how we are going full speed ahead with our Bell System job . . . backing up your local Bell telephone companies with the things they need to answer each community's call for more and better service.
