Telling the Truth

So far in this advertising have taken the ground
that the telephone of Knox county entitled
know all about their telephone business.
This only be accomplished by giving the facts to
the public. We have endeavored to do this. We know
have told the truth about the figures and facts that have
set forth.
The telephone company is really the servant of the
people of Knox county 1t is their telephone business that
is being DONE The company really hired perform the
service for them They therefore entitled to know
what the facts and the for the of the
ey that they expend for telephone service.
Some may think that the managers Of this company
have very wide latitude how they expend the money
paid by the telephone 1t is remarkable how little
latitude there really is.
Over third of the income of the company devoted
to repairing the plant The major portion of the money
expended is for wages Any with experience with
wages will realize how little purchaser of labor has, in
the long rum to do with what is paid for labor.
The cost of traffic switchboard service is almost all
labor and the lack Of latitude left to the manage
ment.
The cost Of taxes absolutely out of the hands Of any
connected with the telephone business either user or
manager.
The other items of cost that have given full and
with degree of analysis offer great amount of lat
ude to the management The costs made by forces
tirey outside the managers Office.
There two places where the management might be
ctcsed there might be wastefness in the purchase of
material and there might be too much paid the stockod
On these two points invite the very strctes in
vestgaton by any disposed to investigate and who
knows how to investigate. We that all purchases
for this company made carefully and economically
The final costs indicate that this is Of know
that this is and want you to know it too
In the matter of dividends, what we pay the stock
holder is known and upon what amount of capital is
known Any investigation of this will show that the stock
holders underpaid instead of Over-pad.
We will be glad to questions this as on 9TH
