III he Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone
Company of Baltimore City has filed an ap-
plication with the Public Service Commission
for an increase in telephone rates.
This is an important step for us and we
for it.
Suppose You Were Running fhe
Telephone Business
You'd try to render good service, pay good
wages, make reasonable profit and lay little
aside for rainy day. To do so, there would be
one thing you'd have to ask of your customers
"a fair price for what you sold.
That's the way we look at it. We've made
number of reductions in telephone rates in the
last twenty years and made the telephone more
useful and of greater value to more people.
The last time there was general increase
in local telephone rates in Maryland was in
1925, or 81 years ago. In the meantime there
have been reductions resulting in savings
to customers of a greater amount than the
increases now requested.
PoyrolIs end
All kaGferiol Costs Hove Gone Up
Since 1925 the cost of almost everything
that goes to make good telephone service has
gone way up.

Just since 1889, the payrolls of this COM
pany have increased 21596. Building costs are
900 higher than in 1889. Material costs in
general are way up.
The cost of poles, for instance, has gone up
$3.50 since before the war. Lead-covered cables
and bare copper wire 300. Steel wire $50.
Telephone instruments 1870 and switchboards
about $3.50.
When we go out to buy anything we have
the same problems you have. The only differ
ence is that our needs and our market-basket
are so much larger.
