A BRIEF REVIEW OF TELEPHONE FACTS
IN A NUMBER OF ADVERTISEMENTS appearing in this and other newspapers welfave endeavored to make clear our reasons for asking the Public Service Commission for an increase in telephone rates throughout the State of Maryland. Briefly summarized, these statements have covered the following points:
i.—INCREASED COSTS have seriously affected us. During 1919 we did not even earn enough to pay our operating expenses and interest charges. .
a.—INSUFFICIENT REVENUES mean that a public utility cannot fulfill its obligations, first, to serve the public and serve it well; and second, to earn a fair return. We have undertaken these obligations and must not neglect them.
3.—SALARIES AND WAGES , our largest single item of expense, have greatly increased. Since 1915 the average wage paid our employees has increased yy per cent.
4.—TELEPHONE MATERIALS, our second largest expense, have sharply increased in cost. Since 1914 the average cost of materials has gone up 90 per cent.
5.—TELEPHONE RATES, conforming to an unchangeable law of trade, are governed always by \ the cost of producing telephone service. While a private industry might raise prices or suspend operations until conditions become more nearly \ normal, a public-serving company must continue doing business at rates approved by the proper 4 ' authorities. j
6.-^ALTHOUGH RATE INCREASES were made effective some months ago, these rates have not proved adequate because they were based on an anticipated drop in costs. Instead of decreasing, costs have risen.
ASSUMING THAT OUR VALUATION of the company's property is fair and that our management is economical and efficient, both of which we are prepared to prove, we believe that the public will endorse our effort to earn a fair return on our investment. This is all we are asking in our petition for higher rates now pending before the Public Service Commission.
