TOWARD
OUR .
EMPLOYEES
TOWARD
OUR
iniiESTons
mm
POOBV
The success of this Company, we are
confident, depends upon our operating
along lines that meet with the approval
of the public. ( ,
The people, we believe, have a right
to know what: we are doing and why
we are doing li, and we welcome an op
portunity to explain the reasons for
any of our policies or practices.
All our accounts are kept in strict
accordance with the best known prac
tices,, so the public at any time may
know through their governing bodies
how much money we take in and what
we do with it.
It is our aim to use the best and most
advanced equipment, and to render the
public the most dependable service of
which modern brains and science tire
capable., .
Years of experience has taught us
what it costs to produce telephone
service, and we know that we are fur
nishing service at the lowest possible'
rates at which good service can be pro
duced. We aspire to win and merit a repu
tation with the public for furnishing
efficient service, and .for : inte&rritv,- ,.
courtesy and absolute fairness in all
our dealings. - ,
We foel sure that the best service is
only to be had when fidelity and loy
alty are reciprocal in employer and em
ployee. It is our purpose to pay employees
sufficient compensation to secure their
best services.
We strive to assist worthy employees
-to accumulate by making it easy for
them to acquire a financial interest in
the business. Nearly half of all the
men employed are stockholders.
We have endeavored to keep bur "
working quarters sanitary and com
f ortable,- for without such conditions
the best work would not be possible.
With no expense to the employees,
we. pro vide for sickness, disability, in
jury, old age and death in a broader '
spirit than any corporation or govern
ment.. . To make for the highest efficiency in
our personnel; we rigidly enforce the
principle of advancement dependent
upon integrity, ability and meritorious
work alone. . - -
We have absolutely no "watered
stock." A dollar has been invested for
every dollar's worth of securities is
sued. This has been proved beyond all
doubt by hundreds of investigations by
commissions and governing bodies.
Good business policy prompts us to
keep the investment of our security
holders safe by maintaining a suffi
cient reserve to rebuild or replace our
property when it is destroyed by fires
or storms, or is worn out or becomes
obsolete.
We - are confident; that the ' public
welfare is best served by our constant
ly making extensions and improve
ments to our existing property to serve
the continuing wquirements ' of - the
public for additional service.
In order to get new money for ex
tensions, it is essential that we pay fair
dividends. No man will put his money
in an enterprise unless he is reason
ably sure that it will be safe and that
fair dividends will be paid promptly.
Briefly, owr telephone policy is: To give the best and broadest service to the
greatest possible number of people at the lowest rate at which it can be produced
and still pay a fair wage to the employee and a reasonable return to the investor.
We believe that such success as we have had has been because our business has been
' conducted on these lines. v . ' ?
