1952: A Year of Telephone Progress for You
We've been building fast to bring still more service,
still better service, to all the Pacific West

At work today in the Pacific Weat are more tele­
phones than ever before in history. And the
service they provide is better than ever, too.
For 1952 was a year of progress for Pacific
Telephone, as have been all the years since the
end of World War Two. Because the telephone
is so im portant to everyone in the West today,
we'd like to give you a quick report on this past
y ear. taken from our Annual Report for 1952.
1952 Highlights
■ Every day, Pacific Telephone spent half
a million dollars on construction.
■ I mprooements in wages and related bene­
fits for telephone employees amounted to more
than $21.000.000 annually.

■ T o ta l taxes per telephone in 1952 a-
mounted to $37.17. This means an average
tax of $3.10 per telephone per month —
almost double what it was ten years ago
■ Aficronwv radio refav facilities were ex­
tended to Portland. Seattle and San Diego
...helping us to handle more long distance
calls than ever, and bringing network tele­
vision to these cities for the first time.
YOUR TELEPHONE IS ONE OF
TODAY'S BEST BARGAINS
New telep h o n e s w e n t in fa st. More than a
million people in the Pacific West applied for
telephones during the year. In most cases we
were able to install them without delay. Enough
telephone buildings, new lines and equipment
were built during 1952 to serve the total needs
of a new city the size of San Francisco. At the
same time, we continued to make the telephone
needs of national defense our first order of busi­
ness. And in both military and civilian service,
1952 was a year of telephone progress. And we II
do all we can to match it in the years ahead.
