In spite of the fact that a great majority of the telephone using
public thoroughly understand the rights, duties and obligations of pub
lic service companies, we find now and then an individual who does not
understand the matter.
A telephone company in it3 broadest sense, is a partnership consist
ing of the State as an institution, the public as a group of customers, and
the company. The State determines the extent to which the company
may go and regulates its rafes, services and practices. The company
furnishes the facilities with which these rights are exercised and the
services rendered. Those member's of the public who constitute the cus
tomers, furnish the revenue with which the company is enabled to per
form these services. No telephone company can exist without custom
ers, and these customers must be treated with fairness both by the com
pany and by the State. The State does not permit any undue burden to
be placed upon a customer.
A public service coq;oration, in a broad sense, is merely an organ
ized right to render the public a service, and in the same larger sense
the service belongs to the company's customers. It follows thatthc
customers are really the company. What benefits or harms the one has
a like effect upon the other.
We are anxious that our present customers, applicants for service,
and the company shall be treated fairly. To continue to extend our ser
vice under our present conditions is impossible. We invite our custom
ers, the public of Oregon, to interest themselves in our problem.
PACIFIC TELEPHONE & TELEGRAPH COMPANY
The Country Printer and Publisher
and His Revenue
IN TI1KSK T1MKS OK lfHCUNSTKL'CTlON AND liEADJUST
MtlNT it ill becomes the advertiser and buyer of printing to
object to the reasonable advances in prices which country pub
lishers and printers are establishing for the continuation of their
business.
The country printer and publisher with few exceptions, lias
never enjoyed the remuneration demanded by his banker, grocer, cloth
ier, lumber dealer, carpenter, bricklayer, plumber, painter, and repre
sentatives of various other mercantile lines and trades. It may have
been his own fault, lie may have been too "fair'1 with his patrons nnd
not fair enough with himself. Be that as it may, within the last several
months he has been given stern object lessons in business economics, and
as a class has become convinced that he is entitled to a compensation
for his capital employed, labor and money expended and intelligence
and ability required, ou a par with other businesses comparable to his.
And he is right.
Even though there is a general falling market, prices will for sev
eral years remain at a higher level than before the war. The printer and
publisher will have to pay more for the things he has to buy for himself,
his famly and his business, and it is therefore right for him to ask and
receive better prices for what he has to sell, and lay a new foundation
that will hold up his business structure under the new conditions which
will assail it. Those publishers who have not already done so should
lose no time to protect themselves in this matter. And those printers
and publishers who have been able to establish a price level fair to
themselves and their customers should be deaf to importunities for n
reduction.
It is to the shame of hundreds of communities all over the country
that the local papers and printing plants have.been closed for lack of
patronage suflicient for the proprietor to continue them and maintain
his self-respect as a citizen and a business man. Publisher's Auxiliary.
