Today, more than ever before, Mississippi needs adequate,
dependable telephone service, and it is our purpose to pro-
vide it. We are now furnishing more service to Mississip-
plans 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
telephones. We installed $4,000 new telephones in 1916. But,
we still have 16,4OO orders on hand for telephone service.
Our study of the states growth indicates that the demand
for more service from present as well as new customers will
continue to increase.
Although the cost of everything we do to provide service
keeps going up, your local telephone rates generally are no
more todou than 90 years ago while long distance rates are
lower. 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 business. Since 1910, the costs of
providing service in Mississippi have climbed 148 per cent,
while revenues have increased only 116 per cent.
Total payroll costs have increased 265 per cent since 1910.
Wage rates in Mississippi have been raised during the past
two years by 81, 900 on an annual basis. This was in
keeping with national policies and trends and to assure COM
petent personnel to provide adequate service. We now have
$500 Southern Bell people providing service to Mississip-
plans. Wages account for about twothirds of our operating
costs.
The cost of erecting telephone buildings is up IS to 100
per cent and the overall cost of providing telephone facilities
is up so to 65 per cent.
The rapid advance of costs in comparison with revenues
has caused our rate of earnings to go down. In 1910, the
Company was earning 3.81 per cent on the amount of money
invested d in the state. In 1916 our earning rate was only $40
of one per cent. The 1916 rate reflects the latest wage in
creases and does not include any possible tax refunds

T During the period January /, 191 to December 81, 1916 over $4,000 new

facilities. IN order to meet the anticipated growth of the future it will be
necessary to spend millions of dollars for construction of new lines and

II would like to tell you why
g.
Increased Rates
on Telephones are Necessary"

available only during 1916 on 1914 federal income taxes.
Southern Bells earnings are today the Lowest in history.
Improved earnings are essential in order:
To meet the day to day cost of providing
service to present customers.
To raise new money on favorable terms
for additional facilities to improve SER
vice to present customers and expand it.
These are the reasons we have asked authority to raise
rates for local service and for most long distance calls with
in the state.
The requested rate increase will not produce all the added
revenue that current costs indicate is needed but will af-
ford immediate relief. Whether the requested rates will
prove sufficient will be determined by operating experience
under the new rates. The increased income under the new
rates would amount to only 1919 per cent of our total Mis-
sissippi revenues. In face of the greatly increased costs of
providing service, this is moderate.
We must go ahead with a huge expansion program and
we are preparing to spend about $~25,O0O,OOO in the next
five years on construction work to improve and expand tele-
phone service in Mississippi. We must proceed with this
construction work, despite high costs, in order to meet de-
mands for service.
Mississippi is now in a period of its greatest growth
and expansion, a growth that will bring the state more
prosperity than it has ever known. Good and effective tee-
phone service is essential to this progress and the Telephone
Company must be in a position to supply it.
We believe, therefore, that our request for increased rates
is sound and in the public interest.

Health Board Sues
To Stop Practice
By DR.. Walden

The Mississippi State Board OF
Health filed suit in Chancery
Court last week against DR..
Dewey II. Walden of Pascagoula,
charging that he has been prac-
ticing medicine without a Ii
cense and seeking an injunction
prohibiting his practice until
and unless he is grantees a Ii
cfnse to do SO" bv the board.
Hearing OF the suit was set
at 10 a. M. May 81 in chancery
court ut Gulfport. The suit was
signed by DR.. Felix Underwood,
head of the board, and DR.. j,
2. Culpepper, a member of the
boards executive committee.
The boards suit is the latest
move In litigation which began
about two years ago, when
County Attorney L. K. McIn-
tosh of Jackson county first
moved to prohibit DR.. Walden
from practicing on the charge
that he did not have a license
to do SO in Mississippi.
Attorney Mcintosh charged al
that time that Walden's tenn
porary license which the state
board had granted him, had ax-
pired and that the board had not
seen fit to renew it.
DR.. Walden countered with q
suit filed in Forest county on
October 4, l945 against the state
board of health by which he OBJ
tanned a temporary injunction
permitting him to continue the
practice of medicine until his
suit for a permanent license could
be decided.
The state board of health now
states that DIR. Walden's suij
has been pending in said court
since that time without any trial
being had thereon or final dis.
position made thereof" 1t now
seeks an injunction prohibiting
DR.. Walden to practice, until and
unless he a obtain a license
from the board.
The board of health's suit stat
es in part: that said complaint
ant (the board of health has not
issued a license to the said Dewey
II. Walden to practice in the
State of Mississippi never
theless, the said defendant has
an office in the city of Pasca-
goula, Jackson county, where he
is holding himself as a physician
and is treating numerous pa
tents end practicing the pro-
fession of medicine, and that
such action on the part of the
defendant is without sanction
and approval of the complainant
and is being done without a Ii
cense having been issued to the
said defendant"
