A dollar in the hands of the telephone company has no greater purchasing power in the labor and material market than has a dollar in the hands of the individual. ' ' '2. -Increases in wages and prices of materials cannot be paid without money . and the telephone company is no more capable of paying out money it hasn't got than is the individual. 3. The telephone company must be provided with means to meet the de . mands made upon it for increased wages and increased cost of materials. As these increased costs are obviously reflected in the cost of rendering telephone service, the telephone company must ask the telephone using public to pay for the service it receives. 4. Higher wages can be paid, increased costs of materials met, and satisfac tory and improved service can be furnished, only when the rates are suffi cient to meet the costs of rendering the service with a sufficient margin for a reasonable return upon the investment. 5. A large territory served by a utility with many patrons may produce large gross'receipts, but not; necessarily huge profits. The State of Ore gon is a large territory and the telephone company serves a large num ber of patrons and has large gross receipts, but small profits. Under present rates and conditions it will earn less than 3 per cent on the value of its property in the state. The idea that a large corporation doing a large business must necessarily, be accumulating great wealth is a preva lent fallacy which the public must get away from. - 6. Telephone rates in the State" of Oregon have remained practically the same . for the last fifteen years or more. There have been a few adjustments in various classes of service to meet demands of the service, with a corres ponding adjustment in rates. Increases in rates are now made because of absolute necessity which made it imperative. Make your own compari son of your telephone rate with the increased cost of shoes, clothing, t food products and all other necessities. Is not the increased telephone rate reasonable and consistent in comparison?
