As broadcasting towers grow taller and taller the demand for tough, strong guys made of Roebling prestretched galvanized bridge strand grows apace. New giant on the horizon is WJTV's tower in Jackson, Mississippi, at 1615 ft. one of the tallest structures anywhere in the world. Designed and built by Kline Iron & Steel Company, Columbia, S. C, this tower, which includes an elevator, is held securely erect by eighteen Roebling galvanized bridge strands. All over America, broadcasters are getting the message: Roebling is the source for dependable strand to assure tower security. It stands to reason. Roebling has the experience, the facilities and the engineering knowhow to handle the most complex suspension problems — whether it involves the massive bulk of a bridge . . . or the delicately poised needle of a TV tower.
