New applications for service—totaling 340,000 for the first five .
months of this year—increased 107 per cent over the corresponding
period of a year ago. Of the 286,000 prospective subscribers at the

to shortage of facilities, we are glad to report that 183,000, or 64 per
cent, have been cared for. Due, however, to the time necessarily ine

Our company has recently made substantial further postwar increased wage adjustments, aggregating $6,000,000 on an annual basis,
as a result of collective bargaining negotiations with the unions.
These added wage increases are over and above the postwar adjustment wage increases made in December of last year which aggregated
more than $18,000,000 on an annual basis. Thus, this recent wage >
increase, embodied in a contract to run until March 1, 1947, brings
the postwar adjustment wage increases, arising out of collective bargaining, to more than $24,000,000 annually—the increase in our
postwar wage rates being 19 per cent. The recent collective bargaine
ing negotiations between our management and the unions extended
over a period from April.24 to May 18, 1946, and at no time throughout the negotiations did the unions or the company fail to realize
that the public interest came. first . . Net Income has been ‘adversely
