March 1 Complimentary Dinner, , 6:30 p.m. Special Entertainment, Nominations The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company (Southern Calif oraia Telephone Co. Bell Telephone Co. of Nevada) Subsidiaries . The Board of Directors in making the 1944'Annual Report'to the shareholders presented it also id tHe men and women - -,. pf the company and to the public which it has the responsibility and privilege to serve. Copies of the report are. available V at any of the company's business offices or at the Secretary's, office. . .' EXCERPTS FROM THE 1944 ANNUAL REPORT living as we all are in a period in which a stupendous sweep of history is taking place, so big that it obscures a full com prehension of it and so diffused that it is difficult to envision the full significance of its impact, our company has continued to do its utmost during the past year to play its full and effective part in our Nation's attainment of decisive Victory in the dire world-wide conflict into which we were plunged. "Geared to full war tempo with increasing emphasis on military activities throughout and directed from the Pacific Coast, the demands for telephone communication continue toiexceed previous record levels. With its tremendously increased and mobile population and teeming with unprecedented activity, the territory of the five Pacific Coast .states in which our com pany operates has rapidly developed into one of the most important strategic, military and production sections 'of our Country. , . "As shown . . . from each of our Annual Reports, 1940 to date, the all-out war effort of our company has been woven and interwoven in the warp and woof of its operations. In fact, the Fall of 1939 saw our sights lifted over the horizon beyond which were ominous clouds that cast the impending gloom of oncoming conflict. Throughout this entire period, our com pany has been put to a test as never before and its ability to serve under the stress and strain of war has been outstandingly strengthened, as it has been over the many years, since 1880, by its membership in the Bell System. : . "There is no period throughout its entire his tory which is comparable to that of the last five years, 1940 to 1944, inclusive, in its tremendous expansion which, through its all-out war effort, has required gross plant additions aggregating more than $276,000,000, with the net result that at the end of the year the investment in its tele . phone plant had reached the huge total of $651, .669,679, or one-third more than it was on Janu ary 1,1940. "Since January 1, 1940, our net telephone in. crease has totaled 640,223 telephones, or 33 per cent, a five-year period unequalcd in telephone demand in the history of our company. Our net telephone increase for tho year was only 19,853 telephones, considerably less than for any year since 1933, and compares with the 1943 net in crease of 187,002 telephones, tho highest of rec ord. There were at the end of the year 224,573 pending applications for main tele phones, 96 per cent of which were for residence service. "Toll and long distance calls reached a record total of more tlion 289,700,000 calls, an increase ' of more than 29,000,000 calls, or 12 per cent, over 1943, which year the previous all-time high was 27 per cent over 1942. Since January 1, 1940, the volume of this traffic has increased 124 per cent. The longer haul calls, originating in and destined beyond our territory, have in creased almost ten-fold from 797,000 calls in 1940 to more than 7,737,000 calls in 1944. "In the last five years, due to the tremendous - volume of wartime traffic and the unprecedented telephone demand, the number of our employees has increased 13,536, or 45 per cent. The number of employees on our payrolls at the end of the year was 43,534, the highest of record. "The payroll for the year was an all-time high and exceeded a hundred million dollars, totaling $104,043,347, an increase of $10,306,606, or 11 per cent, over 1943. It waa higher than tha year 1940 by $44,382,262, or 74 per cent "The earnings of our company on invested capital long-term debt and shareholders1 equity not only have been declining, but also are on the low side as compared with many other businesses. Earnings on its average invested cap ital in 1940 were 6.06 per cent and in 1944 they' had declined to 5.79 per cent. Although costs of operation have risen sharply, adversely affecting its net earnings, our company has had no in creases in its price levels nor has it profited by its large volume of business, but to the contrary, rates have been reduced which, since January 1, 1940, have resulted in savings to our customers, based on 1944 usage, aggregating $15,000,000 annually, "Promptly meeting as we have all telephone requirements vital to the war effort, it is a matter of deep regret and great concern to us that the unavoidable physical limitations of our plant have prevtMtcd us from meeting fully the civilian telephone demand. We dislike to tell people that they have to wait for telephone service, put due to the limited quantities of telephone equipment being manufactured for non-war use, it now ap pears that we will not be able in the near future to fill promptly all applications. The winning of the war in the shortest possible time, of course, comes first. The amounts and kinds of equipment which will become available to us will depend upon the extent of and the time involved in the shifting from war to civilian production of the manufacture and of the manpower now engaged in direct production for our urmed forces. "As we now visualize our forthcoming wort, our postwar requirements will be such that it will be necessary to make plant expenditures ag gregating more than $175,000,000, an increase) of more than $25,000,000 over the amount so estimated a year ago. The construction programs may well be the largest for the first few years after the war that our company has. ever experi enced and they will require an extraordinary amount of new capital, the yearly amounts fi nanced being dependent upon business and eco nomic conditions and the availability to us of material, manpower and money. "Our company has the duty and obligation to welcome home tie men and women in uniform and so to direct its operations that it plays its ef- -fective part in providing full employment for them immediately upon their return. We havo given that assurance to our personnel. w"a have also the community responsibility so to handle our affairs that the veterans of the war will, on their return, have and hold all that tha cause of freedom signifies. To be capable of doing its full part, our company must, of neces sity, be-able financially to offer the employment opportunities which not only create hope and enthusiasm for the future, but also make for ' home and happiness through 'work and liveli hood for Villing hands.' , , "We have before us not only the responsibil ity, with all of its exactions, but also the oppor tunity to continue to render an indispensable service, with constantly improving standards, to a great section of a great democracy, conceived and dedicated to the public service. To serve as it should, our company must continue to contrib ute to make our Nation and the world a better place in which to live. In so doing, we go for- ' ward with the firm belief that a great service, ef ficiently and economically rendered, will con tinue to be received and recognized in accord ance with the ideals and traditions of the great est of all human enterprises tlio American way of life." For the Directors, i. President. :
