A questionnaire answered by 1422 British firms, many of whom employed woman labor for the first time dur- ing the war, expressed themselves al- most without exception as being high- ly satisfied with woman labor, while a majority of them regretted demobil- ization, lack of trade and uncertain- ty of the future plans forced them to dismiss women employes.

Michigan Ave., Chicago Telephone Central 8714 BBLEEEE Revenue is to the corporation what blood is to the body, reduce or thin it and the corporate body at once shows financial anemia, physical impairment, operative inefficiency. A corporation engaged in the Telephone business, upon "hich the public is so vitally dependent, must have ample revenues in order that the equipment shall be of the latest and best type; that the lines shall be kept in perfect condition; that the personnel shall be contented and alert on account of liberal compensation and attractive working surroundings, and that bond interest and a reasonably good dividend rate shall be secure, in order that new capital for extensions and improvements may be readily obtainable. The source of these revenues is the charge to the public for the service rendered. Under present conditions higher rates and good service are interdependent. The Telephone Company is the Trustee of the public for the receipt and expenditure of funds devoted to the service of the public.
