The Cost of Service
N thic loyalty and skill of
the human element depends
the character of telephone serv
ice. T h e pro v id ers o f this
service must not only meet the
m a rk e t p rice s for materials.
(They must also maintain at any
cost a high standard of work
manship.
Because of advancing prices,
the telephone dollar goes only
hal f as far as it did ten years ago.
More than three-fifths of this
’d ollar i» necessarily expended
for wages. Less would neither
O
attract nor hold the high-grade
workers essential to maintain
America’s standards.
That Bell telephone rates
have advanced much less than
other prices is largely due to
economies in methods and ap
paratus that have been developed
and introduced. It is also because
the p ro p o rtio n o f operating
plant built at pre-war prices is
«till large, though this is steadily
decreasing because of new con
struction made necessary by the
nation’s telephone needs.
