ROSEBURG CABINET & SUPPLY 440 N. Jackson Phone 303 Who pays for new telephones? r u o ar f ... ' . . -a"A 1. This sight represent! a lot of money. For the land, buildings, equipment, and wire needed to serve each new telephone we add cost us far more than prewar... just as the things you buy cost you more. Yet we must meet the West's growing telephone needs. To do it we're putting more than half a million dollars to work every day. r - t-lli.lia.mfl I -1 I IIUV'IW iil'Sl i-.a iWii , . ,,,. u ,,. .. a,a-ns 2. This complex equipment can't be paid for out of telephone bills ... it takes a lot of new money ... new work ing dollars furnished by investors. But the telephone bill does play an important part. It covers wages and taxes and other costs of services and when rates are fair and adequate leaves a few cents profit to pay investors for ths use of their money. 3. Can a housewife pay for new telephones? Many do. For many thousands own telephone stocks and bonds.The money for a vast amount of new facilities comes from such investors. And if the system is to keep on growing and im proving, we must keep on attracting the new money to pay for it. We can do it only if we sell our services at fair and adequate prirpa,. 4. When you make a local call, your cost averages less than a nickel. For those few pennies you hire a mighty servant... a bigger servant than ever before. There will soon be twice as many telephones on the Coast as ten years ago. More are being added. And each new one makes your telephone just that much more valuable. is4rp 2?. 1331 The Pacific Telephone (j) and Telegraph Company Mors than 70,000 piopla working together to furnish iverbettar telephone service to the West 222 W.
