The Southern Bell system will not set up in the expansion of long distance service in the southeast this year. The 1929 program, among the largest of its kind in the south, involves over 5 million dollars for additions and reconstructions. It aims to add 322 new circuits and 18 000 circuit miles, reaching 252 000 circuit miles on 30 250 miles of line. Alabama will gain 41 new circuits costing about 634 000 dollars, adding 1 775 circuit miles and bringing total end year lines to 24 600 miles on 3 250 miles of pole line. The plan includes faster, higher capacity service and enhanced toll equipment.
