YOUR TELEPHONE
DOES ITS PART AS A
CITIZEN OF TEXAS
As one of the industries of Texes,
your telephone company pays its
share of the cost of government.
It is a heavy share, too. In 1937
its local, state, and federal taxes
in Texas totaled more than four
million dollars... nearly $12,000
a day.
These telephone taxes were
equal to more than a third of the
company’s entire payroll in the
state. They amount to $9.25 for
every telephone in service.
Where do they go, these
JpJ taxes? To build and maintain
the streets and highways over
which you drive. To furnish you
police and fire protection. To
keep up your children's schools.
To help pay for all the services
government gives you.
The telephone company is part
of Texas . . . here to meet this
state’s need for friendly, depend-
able telephone service. As part of
the state, it has tried to be a
good citizen . . . always ready
and willing to pay its fair share
of the cost of government.
