System

The equipment of all public service enterprises in Europe, whether publicly or privately operated, disintegrated terribly during the Great War. There were not funds sufficient to keep them up to standard. As a result the service of public utilities was greatly impaired and much time and money will be required for their restoration. In the meantime the public is inconvenienced. America has been more fortunate. Her wire using companies have been excellently well maintained. This has been due to untiring effort and vigilance upon the part of operating officials and the public's willingness to pay liberal rates. The Telephone Company must continue to charge rates sufficient to maintain good service, since every element entering into that service costs more than it did six months ago, and costs arc still advancing. The successful telephone company must have the cordial co-operation of its patrons, particularly with respect to the payment of fair rates.
