Aofuil 11 UM THE FLBSHJ&arSN AJ:)VANeE ,.. ,fjy, cy^ff-|«TTV IT/i^ We Need More Money! Last year our rates for service were increased by ten per cent. That was the first general increase in telephone rates in over twenty-five years. To-day the general level of commodity prices is three hundred and fifty per cent over what it was twenty-five years ago. Our operating expenses in 1919 had increased 99 p)er cent over 1915, while gross revenue was only 49 per cent greater. Wages absorbed over 56 per cent of our revenue last year, and our wage bill this year will be at least 35 per cent higher than in 1919! It is apparent that if we are to continue to pay good wages, and so ensure good service, and at the same time pay such a return to investors as will attract new capital to enable us to extend our plant, we must earn more money! We must accomplish both of these things, else service to otir present patrons will suffer and new applicants for service can- not be accommodated! Increased rates are the only source from which such further revenue can come !
