Telephone employees are well paid. Their wages
compare favorably with the wages paid by other

similar skills.
Telephone wage rates have been increased 117
since 1939, compared with an increase of less than

But wages are not the whole story. Telephone
- employees have the -advantage- of steady-work,
with no seasonal layoffs. They get vacations with

In addition, they enjoy the real security provided
