YOUR CHAMBER OF
, COMMERCE
Perhaps, few people appreciate
The efforts of the Chamber of
Commerce in the light of its ac-
complishments during one of the
hardest years of civilisation ex-
istence. That year, which has just
closed, shows some marked prog-
ress toward the items on the im-
portant list even before there was
a war to hinder the normal flow
of activity.
Work in behalf of Possum King-
dom Lake; better highways and
connecting roads; improvement of
local air facilities on a state and
national recognition basis and
closer laision with the agricultur-
al (and livestock people of the
trade territory have all definitely
shown improvement.
When weighed against the
amount of money spent by the
Chamber of Commerce, most of
the effort expended for these
above projects has come from the
personal time of those individuals
asked to serve on various com-
mittees. These business men have
taken from their own time and
generously donated the same to
the cause of a better .Graham and
fh vicinity.
Keauford H. Jester outlined last
week several ways by which the
local Chamber of Commerce and
the people who believe Graham
has a future, can improve the fa-
cilities in this area. In his re-
marks, he recommends a city plan-
ning board—an aency which care-
fully studies the potential and
makes definite plans and recom-
mendations toward accomplish-
ments.
To substantiate his remarks,
Mr. Jester cited Tyler and point-
ed out some of the outstanding
work done there during the past
several months toward locating
some smaller factories in Tyler.
It is Jester's belief that Graham
needs a city planning board. It
is a matter worth some careful
consideration.
If there is to be any>criticism
of our activities within the past
five or maybe ten years, that
would be that we are so close to
the forest we. are unable to see
the trees. We have lived here suf-
ficiently long to get accustomed
to the vast potential h?i;e.Citi-
zens of any town are likely to be’
guilty ojf the same.
But—If the accomplishments of
IMS are an indication, 1946 should
be one of which the entire city
and area will be proud. From the
projected list, one lean pick one
or several items which promise
good return for the amount of
effort expended during war years.

By the year’s end, enough central office equipment,
to connect 43,000 additional telephones had been
made and installed in this company’s territory. This
is the time-taking part of tlie job—the apparatus is
complicated to make and complicated to install.
Equipment for 10,000 telephones must be wired to
handle nearly 50 million possible telephone connec-
tions. We’re pushing thia complex job as fast as we
can; it v/ill take time, but we’re doing our best to
take as little time as possible.

Miles and miles of cable to connect telephones with
central ofl.ces have been put in since tlte end of the
war; and in the last few weeks, by reason of increased
supplies of men and material, the rate of installation
has doubled.
We have made progress—and every month during
the coming year our progress will be still more rapid.
Everyone will get service in his proper turn. Your serv-

tion is before us; and as soon as the equipment is
available to connect your telephone, we will notify
you and arrange details for providing your
