That the telephone is a natural monopoly is an admitted fact, and this very fact has caused us, at times, to experience hostility that otherwise would not exist. Because the com modity in which we deal is a natural monopoly it does not fol low that we are not amenable to municipal and state laws. We are a natural monopoly simply because two tele phone systems in one town do not increase the facility of com munication and do not bring any additional benefits to the telephone user. We are not responsible for this condition, but its truth has been demonstrated time and time again. In every city in which we operate, regardless of how many other companies are in the *ame field, we exert all our efforts towards giving satisfactory service at reasonable cost, and to meeting the demands and requirements of the public. We stress this point purposely. It corrects a common error. Unfortunately the belief largely prevails that a corpor ation, because it is a corporation, gives little attention to the needs of the public and permits its employes to be indifferent. Particularly does this belief prevail in the case of a monopply, natural or otherwise. v We depend, upon the public for our very existence and each one of our employes understands that the public must be treated with courtesy and respectful consideration, no matter how trivial may be the subject. We ask that this consideration be extended by the pub lic to our employes—particularly to the young lady operators.
