4'A million times a day
This telephone man helps clear the way for more than
4Vi million calls that surge each day through the net-
work of Bell telephone wires in Texas.
It's a big job, handling more than 4'/^ million
tailor-made telephone calls a day. It takes millions of
dollars in telephone equipment. It takes the skilled
work of 8,700 telephone people. And it takes money
... more than 241/2 million dollars spent hy the tele-
phone company last year to operate its business in
Texas. Of this amount, more than 10 million dollars
went for wages ... nearly 5 million dollars for taxes.
People at work in Texas ... money spent in Texas
... to give you swift, accurate, courteous telephone
service at a reasonable price.
