As utilization has grown, it has steadily widened the possibilities for logging out the leftovers of yesterday, while serving in the sawmills—in the large ones, at least—to banish the old-time re fuse burner with the giant red eye. So, since 1933, the salvage log gers have returned as many as five times to comb some areas of the Tillamook Burn. One hun dred or more salvage logging op erations are at work there now They are taking out sizes and grades of timber that the expert estimators of 1934 could not see as possible material for profitable conversion into building products But now those sizes and grades are usable. And so, despite y ears of dead timber decay, today's estimates for total salvage from the Tilla mook Burn exceed the 1934 esti. mates of merchantable timber killed, in terms of board feet.

Our goal is now, as it has always been, to bring you the best possible telephone service at the lowest possible cost. But costs continue to go up. as the following illustrations show: At the close of World War II, it required an investment of $193 for each new telephone we added to our system. By mid-1952 this figure had risen to $392. Last year costs con tinued to rise so that at the end of 1953 an investment of $436 was required for every added telephone. In 1940, it cost us $33 per telephone to keep our system running. But these costs have more than doubled since then. From where I sit...

By the end of 1952 this had soared to $21,530,847 and during last year it rose another 15% to reach $24,725,122.
