Telephone
Does the Telephone in your residence prove more than a convenience
and perform an important part in the management o f your affairs?
In fact, don ’t you find good Telephone service essential in both your
office and home?
The Telephone Company believes you do and wants' to supply that
service to you.
Telephone properties are now operated at a loss in the State o f
Oregon.
Inereaséd rates are necessary to continue present service and attract
capital fo r building new plant needed. Can investors be expected to
furnish funds for extensions when the present plant does not pay its w ay?
Is not the Telephone .Company entitled to rates which will enable
them to continue to furnish good Telephone service to the people o f Oregon,
and without which fhey cannot carry out their plans fo r development?
These are questions o f importance and should interest every Telephone
user.
