First in your mind, perhaps,
the telephone industry’s prin
cipal contribution to the
South is quirk, dependable
communication.
But Southern Bell is also
j important as a citizen, as an
j employer of people, as a
payer of taxes, as a pur
chaser of materials. In 1939
i alone, operating expenses
amounted to approximately
fifty-five million dollars, not
including additional millions
used for new construction.
To build, operate and
maintain this system requires
more lhan twenty-one thou
sand skilled workers whose
annual payroll is approxi
| mately thirty million dollars.
These telephone men and
women contribute to the busi
ness and social welfare of
their communities, and of
the South. They and their
families compose a group of
perhaps eighty thousand peo
ple who are dependent on
this business for their live
lihood.
As a tax-paver, the South
ern Bell does much toward
j the support of the local,state
j and national governments.
Total taxes last year exceeded
nine and three-quarters mil
lion dollars, nearly twenty
seven thousand dollars a day.
The Southern Bell Com
pany is a Southern industry
1 in the fullest sense and its
activities form a substantial
contribution to the growth
; and prosperity of the South.
