For us, the Solar Battery may be the key to more economical ways of giving service, especially in sparsely settled areas far from town. Although he enjoys talking about Solar Batteries and electronic switching, Tarbell is just as enthused about new developments which have already passed from the experimental stage into day-to-day use. One example is Direct Distance Dialing. ith thii; new service, customers in more and more cities are dialing their calls from coast to coast as easily as they dial across town. Another engineering feat is the first transatlantic telephone linking the U.

S. and Canada with the British Isles.
