In order to accomplish this we have almost doubled our plant investment during the past six years, and we are now planning an enlarged program of additional improvements which will cost about thirteen million dollars. This tremendous expenditure is necessary to provide you with the kind of service you went and deserve. The money to provide this equipment will come from the investing public. I t cannot be obtained unless we are able to insure fair earnings for these investors. Therefore, we have found it necessary to request increases in telephone rates— the first in creased rates since 1946. The new equipment we have already installed and which we are planning enables us to operate our system more economically. Neither this saving nor our increased totsl income has kept pace with mount ing operating and material coats. Because of them, however, we have been able to keep our rate increases to a minimum, and these changes are much lower then increases in most other prices in this same time period. unni MIMI PAGE 2H S.
