Plans for Armed
Forces Day
(Continued from Page 1)
The Seward station in 1927
became the headquarters for
ACS in Alaska. Originally it
was located in the Griffith
house, which is now used as liv
ing quarters for some of the per
sonnel.
A number of changes were
made during the war. Until 1942
the ACS facilities consisted
mainly of the cable terminal and
mux relay point for the Sew
ard-Ketchikan ocean cable, land
line to Anchorage and stand by
radio. At the present time, all
long distance telephone calls are
handled through ACS.
The history of ACS in Alaska
is practically the history of the
Territory, because the communi
cations system was one of the
first steps toward the develop
ment of the country. The ACS
personnel is very modest about
the accomplishments of the serv
ice, although they are well
aware of its history and justly
proud of their part, no matter
how small or isolated the station
they are tending.

After the meeting Sunday eve
