BELL SYSTEM WAS LARGEST SOURCE OF RADARS JOR WAR Reason Of Request For Applicant’s Wait On Phone Service

The Bell Telephone System through its research and manufacturing branches has served as the nation’s largest single source of radars during the war, Walter S. Gifford, president of the American Telephone and Telegraph Co., has announced following the release of radar news by the armed services. Up to June 30, 1945, according to Mr. Gifford, Western Electric Co., which is the manufacturing branch of the Bell System, had supplied to the government more than 52,900 radar systems of 64 different types, valued at more than $800,000,000. With the aidj of hundreds of sub-contractors to which it provided specifications' and details of manufacturing pro-1 cedure, Western Electric has supplied more radars—all of them of Bell Telephone Laboratories design—than any other manufacturer.

Bell Laboratories has had a larger group of scientists and engineers than any other industrial organization working throughout the war in advancing the radar science and in designing new radars for the army and navy. Not only have more radar designs come from these laboratories than from any other industrial laboratory, but also a much larger volume of completely new and essential components have been developed there.

Mr. Gifford said, “Because so much of the Bell System’s effort has been applied to radar and other war development and production, it has been necessary for ; the telephone companies to ask upwards of 2,000,000 applicants to wait for telephone service. Certain delays have been necessary from time to time in long distance service. Yet the American people have demonstrated their patience and understanding, which we deeply appreciate.” The Bell System head revealed the following: The Bell Laboratories and Western Electric together have had substantially full responsibility for development and production of radars for navy ship gunfire control. All large guns of the U. S. Navy are pointed by radars designed and produced by the two organizations. Radar systems designed and made by the Bell System research and manufacturing team have been standard for B-29’s in the Pacific for navigation, target location, and high altitude bomb-

ing. The Bell System also developed and produced low altitude radar bombsights used extensively by the army and navy in attacking enemy shipping. Bell Laboratories pioneered in the research on electrical computing portions of the radar

bombsight and has been responsible for the development of most of those that have had large combat use. One of the important phases of the Bell System’s contribution to the armed forces’ radar program was the school for war training conducted by Bell Laboratories in .New York City. There some 4,000 officers and men of the army and navy were instructed in the intricacies of military electronics, chiefly radar.

In addition to armed forces’ personnel trained at the Bell Laboratories’ school, more than 500 Western Electric neers were instructed, after which training they served directly with the Navy’s Bureau of Ordnance and Aeronautics, Marine Corps, Air Technical Service Command, Signal Corps, and Army Ground Forces. Bell Laboratories prepared and published textbooks for this electronic and radar training and also compiled instruction manuals to go along with each radar system supplied by Western Electric. As a result, the laboratories ranks as one of the largest wartime publishers in America, both for size of printings and number of book titles.
