GROWTH OF UNITED STATES
The growth of this country and
general industrial activity is shown
by the continued demand for the
service furnished by electric light,
power, gas and telephone companies.
A specific illustration is the Ameri-
can Telephone and Telegraph Com-
pany and associated companion. The
year 1923 was the record-breaking
year for the system, when it ex-
pended over $240,000,000 to enlarge
and Improve Its service.
The 1924 program for the system
will require about $270,000,000 for
plant additions. These expenditures
will be approximately $45,000,000
for land and buildings, $95,000,000
for central office switchboards and
equipment, on subscribers’ premises,
and $90,000,000 for outside plant fa-
cilities.

of the day in the tpyical city. This
"peak of the load" is due to the
opening of business houses and or-

Between 12 and 1 o'clock the tele-
phone traffic again rises while lunch
engagements are made, then drops
off until between 2 and 4 p. m.,
which is the busy period in the shop-

Another peak is reached between
4 and 6 p. m. when the offices be-
gin closing and again at 7 o’clock
when the evening "dates'' are made.
After that the traffic dwindles away
and at midnight the switchboard Is
