Symbol We rather like this photo of our Floyd Conn . . . we think it's symbolic. Here Floyd, who is a Western Electric installer, is soldering telephone cable in a new Bell central office . . . helping install dial switching equipment made at our factories. And the connection he makes symbolizes the close bond that exists between ourselves and Bell telephone communities— including yours — through telephone service. Each month, Western Electric installers are busy on about 4,000 separate jobs in over 500 cities and towns across the country . . . making additions, modifying equipment, changing manual switching equipment to dial service — to mention a few. By working closely with Bell telephone companies — as we have now for 75 years as the manufacturing and supply unit of the Bell System — we become part of the community's Bell telephone service.
