R. Powlcy, president of The Pacific Telcphono and Tele graph company, Issued a state ment today In connection with the release of the dividend checks to shareholders In which he commented on the indicated adverse effect on the company's earnings due to its huge plant construction program in excess of 80 per cent over last year now totaling more than $70,000, 000, heavy increased wage pay ments recently effective and the forthcoming substantial tax in creases. In further commenting on the statement to the shareholders, Mr. Powlcy stated: "Throughout the entire Pa cific coast we are making huge plant additions to meet the extraordinary service require ments Involved in the defense preparedness and the accelerat ed tempo of business activity. Our working forces have been considerably increased in num ber and we now have In excess of 33,000 employes or over 8000 more than a year ago. We have the highest payroll in the his tory of the company. "Prior to the first of the year we estimated that our 1941 con struction program would ap proximate $60,000,000 of which an aggregate of $48,000,000 would be exclusively for new construction. We now estimate that this program, which is still in a state of flux, will be In ex cess of $70,000,000 and it will undoubtedly be enlarged due to the continued unusual and un foreseen extraordinary service demands. The plant require ments run into larger figures land and buildings $2,754,000; equipment installed or added in central offices $21,320,000; sub scribers' telephono equipment $23,962,000; exchange cables, wire, poles, etc., $13,334,000; toll cables and lines for long dis tance traffic $9,452,000. We are adding new facilities In prac tically every city, town and ham let in which we operate as well as materially enlarging facilities over long distance routes. We are building, wherever neces sary, entire new telephone lay outs to meet the national defense requirements. "The net gain In telephones in May was 10.641 as compared with 6.260 in May last year. Net gain for the first five months of 1941 was 61,596 as compared with 40,347 for the correspond ing period of 1940.

BASEMENT MONTGOMERY WARD FIRE-BUGS 1ST RAPPED BY SENATORS WASHINGTON, July 1 W) To guard against "the Increasing possibility of acts of incendiary sabotage," the senate voted $1, 100,000 Monday for emergency protection against forest fires. principally in California, Oregon and Washington. E. W. Loveridge, assistant chief of the forest service, said all but $100,000 of the sum would be expended in those three states to employ more fire guards, more lookout men and for "standby suppressing squads. " The $1,000,000 item was in cluded In a $1,000,000 deficiency appropriation bill after the sen ate's appropriations committee had heard Loveridge testify that witn the fire season just open ing "something urgently needs to be done" to prevent forest fire damage to military estab lishments, defense industries and communication and power facilities. Loveridge said there had been a "serious weakening" of the regular fireflghting organization because of loss of 99 CCC camps in the three states and asserted there was a "serious danger of sabotage" because of "a great influx of people Into that sec tion to work in the defense in dustries." Horace Andrews, assistant reg ional forester at Portland, Ore., told the committee that fires threatened damage to "a great concentration of defense activ ity" In northwest Oregon and western Washington. He said "extraordinary fires, possibly due to sabotage," not only could retard movement of lumber products needed for de fense activities but "could also so smoke up the fields and roads" in the area "that air and road transportation would be practically stopped at times."

MONKEYS want security, warmth, peanuts and bananas, companionshipeven as you and I. Monkeys get these things in the zoo prob ably to a far greater degree than in their native trees. But they lose their FREEDOM to get them. Now the great difference between a FREE man and a SLAVE has nothing to do with peanuts or security. The free man keeps his freedom by being able to PROTECT HIMSELF. The slave, or the monkey, gives up his freedom TO GET PROTEC TION. Dictators, like zoo keepers, believe it is unnecessary for the INDIVIDUAL to make any decisions. "The STATE will tell you what you are to do, what you are to believe," says the dictator. "And if you do not do and be lieve as you are told NO PEANUTS!" That doesn't sit very well with free men in a democracy. They say: "WE, the people, will tell you, OUR PUBLIC SERVANTS, what to do and what to believe. Fail us and we'll throw you out of officel" : : BUT THEN COMES THIS QUESTION! How are you, the people, to know right from wrong, fact from fancy? How can you watch everywhere at once? How can you keep your eye on the businessman who runs the national "pea nut stand" and still watch the state and local and national government? How can . you POSSIBLY know what is going on all about you? AND HERE IS DEMOCRACY'S ANSWER I "The answer is easy. We will have free speech, freedom of thought and religion. We will let every man express his own views. We will give to NEWSPAPERS the job of keeping us informed. We will put these rights of ours to KNOW THE FACTS even beyond the reach of our government beyond temptation. "And we will KEEP for ourselves the . power to get a new zoo keeper or a new mayor or a new senator if any true report comes to us that these or other public SERVANTS threaten to become our MAS TERS. No dictatorship can exist in a nation that has a truly FREE press." Over SOOUading newspaper publisher join together to bring you this weekly menage about the function of the prett in a free nation.
