In spite of the fact that a great majority of the telephone using public thoroughly understand the rights, duties and obligations of public service companies, we find now and then an Individual who does not understand the matter. A telephone company, in its broadest sense, is a partnership consisting of the State as an in: stitution, the public as a group of customers, and the company. Something Wrong. We Can Locate The State determines the extent to which the company may go and regulates Its rates, services and practices. The company furnish- es the facilities with which these rights are exercised and the services rendered. Those member of the public who constitute the customers, furnish the revenue with which the company is er abled t operform these services. If you are not getting full mileage out of your car you are losing money, and your engine needs attention. Possibly the entire car needs it. Where ever there is a “drag” there isa shrinkage in mile age—and no car owner wants to admit that his “bus” is not up to the standard. No telephone company can exist without customers, and these cus tomers must be treated with fairness both by the company and by theState. The State does not permit any undue burden to be placed upon a customer. A public service corporation, in a broad sense, is merely an organized right to render the publie * service, and in the same larger sense the service belongs to the company’s customers. the customers are really the company. It follows tat. 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 tree ed fairly. To continue to extend our service under our present condition is impoeeible. we invite our customers, the public of Oregon, to interest themselves in our problem. We make a specialty of INCREASING MILEAGE in cars. Let us do it for you. Hermiston Auto Co The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company
