ANNUAL REPORT
TO TELEPHONE USERS
A Summary of the Southwestern Boll Telephone
Company's 1942 Annual Report Pecently Issued
"PEARL HARBOR" was only three weeks
old as 1942 started but already the telephone
system had felt the first of war's pressing de-
mands. Most metals vital to war arc also vital to
telephone service. During the year we were
able to get for example only a tenth of the
copper normally needed.
Telephone people somehow had to make
this bare trickle of materials meet demands
for entire telephone systems at Army camps
and Navy bases for service to new war indus-
tries for new telephones in thousands upon
thousands of homes.
Service held up rather vell
The skill and "know how" of these people
were in most cases equal tothejob. Duringthc
year the company gained 123689 telephones.
It ended the year with 1867751 telephones
in service. Dut in many ernes lines and equip
ment simply could not serve all who wanted
telephones.
The quality and speed of telephone service
held up rather well during the year. There
were exceptions of course. On many crowd-
ed long distance lines delay's were unavoid
able.
It was inevitable in such a year that
SOUTHWESTERN BELL
some new high marks as well as some low
marks should be set.
Tor example the money taken in by the
company for its services was 120 million dol-
lars 11 per cent above 1941. That seems a
lot of money.
Expenses mount faster than revenue
But expenses climbed even faster. They
jumped from a little over 88 million dollars
in 1941 to more than 101 million dollars
an increase of 15 per cent. Most of this in-
crease was a result of sharply higher payrolls
and taxes. Taxes grew from slightly less than
20 million dollars in 1941 to more than 24
million dollars.
The result was that the company matched
its high record with a low..
Earning rate lower than in depression
The company's earnings for the year were at
the rate of 4.4 per cent on the money it has
put into the buildings wires and equipment
needed to furnish telephone service a lower
rate of return than was earned at the lowest
point of the depression.
On the whole telephone service was
better in 1942 than telephone people had
dared hope it would be. This was due in large
part to the competence and fine spirit cf
service of the telephone men and women in
the Southwest. It was due also to :hc under
standing and sympathetic co-operation
of the people who use the service.

Of course it's more trouble to feed a
family in wartime! That's what war
is: trouble. But even so aren't America's
dinner tables banquets compared with
those in the other nations that are fighting
to save mankind's freedom? That's why
American women can swing market bas-
kets and count ration points and think
nothing of it. They are helping to win.
And in this war we win or we die.

for sizzling foods in their own juices. Fol-
low a Nutrition Guide. Even with war restric-
tions -you can have good-tasting meals that
guard the health and good looks of your family.
