Today, more than ever before, North Carolina needs ada-
quate, dependable telephone service, and it is our purpose
to provide it. We are now furnishing more service to North
Caroinians than at any other time in our history.
Both local and long distance calls have reached an all time
high for this state and more and more people want tele-
phones. Since the first of the year, we have installed $4,000
new telephones. But we still have $4,000 orders on hand.
Our study of the states growth indicates that the demand
for more service from present as well as new customers will
continue to increase.
In order to keep up, we must enlarge our facilities and
hire more people, regardless of the fact that construction
costs and wages have risen tremendously.
The cost of erecting buildings is up Is to 100 per cent.
The cost Of providing telephone facilities is up As to 60
per cent, and telephone materials Is to 25 per cent.
Total payroll costs have increased 1856 per cent since 1911.
Wages in North Carolina have been raised s~2,311,415 within
the past IL months. This was in keeping with national poll
cies and trends and to assure competent personnel to provide
adequate service. We now have 1890 Southern Bell people
in North Carolina. Wages account for about twothirds Of
our operating costs.
Although the cost of everything we do to provide service
keeps going up, your telephone rates haze remained um-
changed for many gears. Because of this, the amount of
money we are paying out is increasing faster than the
amount we are taking in, despite a record volume of bust
ness. Since 1941, the costs of providing service in North
Carolina have climbed 1O2 per cent, while revenues have
increased only 76 per cent.
The rapid advance of costs in comparison with revenues
has caused our rate of earnings to go down. In 1911, the
Company was earning $50 per cent on the amount of money

invested in the state. Today our earning rate Is only 211
per cent. This rate reflects the latest wage increases and
does not include any possible tax refund that may be aval
able this year only on 1914 federal income taxes. Southern
Bells earnings are today the LOWEST in historx
Nevertheless, the Company Is going ahead with a huge
expansion program. We are preparing to spend about s40-
100000 in the next five years on construction work to inn
prove and expand telephone service in North Carolina We
must proceed with this construction work, despite high costs,
in order to meet demands for service.
We need improved earnings if we are to meet the Increased
costs of providing service. and if we are to obtain, on reason.
able terms, the capital funds necessary to improve and
expand our service.
That is the reason we have asked authority to raise rates
on business telephones and to charge 5 cents more on most
long distance calls within the state.
Current costs indicate a need for greater increases IN rates
than we are asking. But we hope our operating experiences
under the new rates will prove them sufficient. Since resi-.
dence local charges are to remain unchanged, the increased
income under the new rates would amount to only Z per cent
OF our total North Carolina revenues. In face of the continu-
ously rising costs of providing service. this is moderate.
The State of North Carolina is now IN a ner,od If its
greatest growth and expansion, a growth that will bring the
state more prosperity than it has ever known. Good and
effective telephone service is essential to this progress and
the Telephone Company must be in a position to supply il.
We believe, therefore, that our request for increased rates
is sound and in the public interest.
