MORE HOME-TOWN SERVICE FOR WEST'S HOME TOWNS We're putting many millions more into telephone facilities this year lit! 1. All across the West, in the country and in the cities, telephone people are still hard at it expanding and improving the telephone system. For our popu lation continues to grow. The demand for new tele phone service goes right on ... in spite of our having doubled the number of telephones in use in the past ten years. And doubling the amount of money invested in the telephone business in just five years. 3. It's taken a tremendous investment to build to serve the million and a half new telephones we've added since 1943. And, building as we have in the face of inflated costs, the equipment to serve" a new telephone has averaged about 400. Before 1940, the average was about (230. Yet rates are up far less than our costs of providing service., .on the average less than half as much as the cost of living. Your telephone is one of your budget's best friends. ' ... 2. New facilities, installed in just the past five years have increased our plant $660,000,000, the largest expansion program ever executed by any public utility operating company. Again in 1951, we'll put many millions of investors' money into the West. Much of the material we will use will be purchased in the West's towns and cities. Certainly most of them will benefit from the program's jobs and payrolls.
