A group attack on the “X” of industry
Research, finding answers to the eternal
x = ?, keeps step in the Bell System with
the new industrial viewpoint.
The joy in working out studies in de
velopment is shared by many. Results are
reached by group effort. Striving to
gether, the mature engineer and his
younger assistants, each contributes to
the final solution of the problem.
Men of the Bell Telephone Labora
tories are sharing in useful, interesting
research. They are getting valuable train
ing in the modern strategy of organization
attack.
And because that strategy assures them
the aid of men and material resources,
they are actually turning some of their
vision into fact.
