It costs much more to add telephones today Investment per telephone added in 6 prewar years $172 $434 Investment per telephone added in 7 postwar years Buying and building the facilities needed to put new telephones to work now costs more than double what it did in the prewar period. YOUR TELEPHONE'S NUMBER ONE ENEMY How rising costs put a real burden on good service Surprisingly, it isn't fire or storm or earthquake . . . your telephone's biggest problem today is the rising costs of the things we buy to provide telephone service—coupled with low telephone rates which have increased much less than the cost of the things we buy to run the system. New techniques and improved equipment have helped greatly to cut operating costs. But the pressure of high prices is unrelenting. And, since a financially healthy telephone system is so important to good service for you, we believe you'd like to be brought up-to-date on your telephone's biggest problem. How rising costs put a real burden on good service Surprisingly, it isn't fire or storm or earthquake... your telephone's biggest problem today is the rising costs of the things we buy to provide telephone service—coupled with low telephone rates which have increased much less than the cost of the things we buy to run the system. New techniques and improved equipment have helped greatly to cut operating costs. But the pressure of high prices is unrelenting. And, since a financially healthy telephone system is so important to good service for you, we believe you'd like to be brought up-to-date on your telephone's biggest problem. Our operating expenses and taxes have shot up $103 per telephone in 1952 $53 per telephone in 1940 Up sharply are our costs of keeping the system running. Operating taxes, for example, have almost doubled—from $10 per telephone in 1940 to nearly $20 in 1952. Average wage rates of telephone people are more than double what they were in 1940. In fact, nearly everything we must buy to keep your telephone on the job costs about twice what it did prewar. With our costs up so much more than our prices, the profit on the investment in facilities for each new telephone has been cut in half. And this is important to your service because it takes profits to attract investors' savings into the business to pay for new facilities needed to meet the continuing telephone demands of the growing Pacific West. Despite our higher costs of building and running the telephone system, the economies we've made have helped keep your telephone a bargain. It carries your messages for just pennies a call.

HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago During the past eight years since the writer has resided in Anaheim, he has never known the air to be so impregnated with heat as it was yesterday. The thermometer indicated 104 degrees in the shade from about 11 o'clock to 1 p.m. At 3 o'clock it was 98. At 6:30 p.m. it had dropped to 80 and at 9 o'clock it was delightfully cool. The natural heat was augmented by the fire which was raging in the hills northeast of town. (The writer was Richard Melrose who was at that time editor and proprietor of the Gazette.—Ed.) Articles of incorporation of the First United Presbyterian church in Santa Ana have been filed. Directors, A. McFadden, A. T. Oliver and A. F. McFadden. The Mirror says that, with the additional supplement added at the last election, the Great Register of Los Angeles county shows a vote of 10,808. Deducting deaths, transfers, etc., since the original was printed there are probably 9,000 voters in Los Angeles county. This at the usual average of five inhabitants to one voter, would place the population of the county at about 45,000. The large and elegant fireproof building of Messrs. F. and J. Backs, opposite the Gazette office, is crumpled from collapsing wood. The Trustees placed Lewis in charge of the power house, he being captain of the ship. The marshal reported following collections for the past month: Total amount collected $1022.35 less 5 per cent for collecting, $54.12. Net amount deposited with treasurer $941.43. Treasurer Hartung reported a balance on hand of $2085.00. Recorder Howard reported collecting $38 for fines. Bills to the amount of $1401.25 were ordered paid. Committee on public improvements reported that the old well pit at the power house was caving in. The well pipe was raised to the surface and the pit is being filled in. Ordinance 156, levying a property tax amounting to $1.25 on $100 was read for the first time. Communications from R. J. Northam and W. J. Hole relative to gravel pit in foot hills north of Fullerton, refusing to sell gravel by the load, but offering to entertain proposition for purchase of the tract. Reported to public improvements committee for investigation. Theo. Rimpau wrote the board that he would install 22 electric lights in his residence on Palm street if the board would erect an arc light at the corner of Palm and Broadway. No action taken. The board purchased 10 tons of hay from Ed Kraemer. Price $9 on the ranch. ANAHEIM GAZETTE, INC. Theodore B. Kuchel, President Max Beasler, Vice-President LEGAL NOTICES (Pub.

A vast quantity of honey is also being shipped from here in five gallon cans.

Marshal Steadman reported he had interviewed a number of business firms and private parties and had secured sufficient business to justify installation of an all-night service. Engineer A. L.
