The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company has built up a telephone system, in Oregon from 7027 stations in 1900 to 94528 stations in 1920. This development was se cured for the most part during a, period when cost of labor and materials was normal. During these 20 years the Telephone Company has carried out its part in the building of Oregon. Its operating expenses have increased faster than its revenue for the last five years it has been operating at an increasing deficit. This condition cannot permanently continue. New capital cannot be obtained by public utilities at all except when rates are such as will afford reasonable assurance, with efficient management, of earnings sufficient to care for legitimate fixed charges and establish for them a basis of credit. This does not mean that rates should be such as in themselves will supply new capital, but that they bo such as to justify capital investments in competition with other business ventures. The proposed rates represent a very small increase to the individual user from 2J4 to 11 cents per day. In the aggregate they represent a revenue to the Telephone Company sufficient, to enable it to continue to serve, the public, meet its payroll obligations and show a reasonable return upon a legitimate investment. 1 Adequate service is dependent upon adequate rates.
