An expenditure of mope tluin $27,000,000 wae required lest
Sear to dxpand and Improve the Southern Bell Telephone
ystem In the nine southeastern stamps.
More than 51,000 new telephone# were added to the ijitom ,
convincing evidence of the Increasing value of telephone service

This activity and growth reflect the progress of the Sputh'

At the end of the year there were 900,587 telephones In the
Southern Bell System. In addition there were 345,572 tele*
J hones owned by other companies and 88^08 telephones in
arm homes, connected with the system.
The investment in service reached the enormous total of
$199,492,700 on December SI, 1928. It represents such per*
uncut property as 912 central offices with switchboards and
other associated eouipmentt 5,781,857 miles of wire ( 3.9 miles
per telephone); 8o,789 miles of pole line and 3,409 miles of

Te build, operate and manage this great telephone system
requires sua army of skilled men and women whose payroll

The tax bill for the ysar was also the largest in the history
of the company, amounting, to $5,235,132. 'I'hls was an in*
