How the Indiana Bell Serves the S. A.T.U. Asa single unit of the Working Membership of jk the S.A.T.U., the Indiana Bell Telephone Com- %% vs pfcny has become the pre-eminent agent of the Active Membership of the Society in Indiana. This position has been reached by the Indiana Bell solely because the Active Members have learned that the Indiana Bell is best qualified to provide them with the facilities necessary to the enjoyment of their rights and privileges as members of the S. A. F. U. It could not hold this position otherwise, for it is a fact that telephone patrons* the Active Members of the S. A. T. U., are as free to change their agents as any other organization. In point of service, the Indiana Bell bears the same relationship to the Active Member as the manager of a clubhouse to a member of the club. From the moment an Active Member is enrolled by the Society in the territory wherein it functions, it becomes the duty of the Indiana Bell to provide that Active Member with all the facilities necessary to the full enjoyment of his membership. He may want little or much service. He may desire a party line or a private switchboard with many trunks. In any event, he makes his wants known to the Indiana Bell and that working unit takes up the obligation of supplying his needs. In assuming that obligation, the Indiana Bell may neither discriminate nor refuse. The amount ot money the Active Member pays for the service is established by law. The limits of the amount of service the Active Member may have is the ability of the Indiana Bell to provide it. It is the duty and the purpose of the Indiana Bell Telephone Company to provide for the Active Members of the S. A. T. (J. within the territory in which it operates precisely the kind and quality of telephone service which those Active Members desire* The service cannot be extended, curtailed, improved, depreciated or altered in any manner except in the interests ot the Active Members for whom it is provided. Active Members of the S. A. T. LJ. must be served. The whole purpose and the right of existence of the Indiana Bell Telephone Company lies in its ability to serve the Active Members of the S. A.T. U. to their satisfaction. It was conceived, formul&ted and developed for that purpose, which is its sole purpose 0/ JBbto and, as a complicated piece of machinery built to do a ariven thing Ll JPHL. 0 well, it is admirably adapted to the performance of itaone^bjecU Bext we will show why the Indiana Bell Company is best able to serve the S+A.T.U* INDIANA BELL TELEPHONE CO.
