[From the foreword] During the past 50 years, the organization which is now known as Standard Telephnes and Cables Pty. Ltd., has been rpivileged to work in close co-operation with the Post Office Authorities, Government Railways, Transport Services and Public Utility Bodies of the Commonwealth of Australia and the Dominion of New Zealand, in the development of telegraph, telephone and radio communication. During that time, it has introduced many new improvements, some of which have revolutionised the science of electricla communications in both countries. [...] It is with the purpose of this 50th anniversary in view that this book has been published and, in the following pages, a record is outlined of the expansion of STC in Australia and New Zealand since its inception fifty years ago. During this time many valuable inventions have been perfected and the world has been enriched by the contribution made in production in all fields of electrical equipment which, during the second World War, proved instrumental in assisting the Allied Nations to ultimate victory.
