Mrs. Ben Dennis and Mrs. COMPANY Yes and no! We are not a pure monopoly but we are a regulated monopoly, and that is in the best interest of our customers. Years ago, many towns had more than one telephone company. That meant that customers had to subscribe to both systems in order to be able to call and receive calls from anyone in town. Furthermore, many companies did not connect to the long distance network. To remedy that situation, the telephone business was established as a regulated monopoly. That meant that only one company would serve a qiven area, and that telephone customers needed only to subscribe to one service in order to have full service. As a regulated monopoly, the telephone company is required to provide service to all customers residing within its service area. It cannot pick and choose, as many businesses can, serving only where it is economically attractive. The company is NOT guaranteed a profit but, rather has a ceiling on the profit it can earn. And it must survive in an economic world which exerts as much competitive pressure on it as on unregulated companies. The telephone company has no monopoly on people . . . or on money. It must compete with every business everywhere for the people who will make the system work. And it must compete 1 the highly competitive money markets for the investment capital essential to its continued growth and service improvement. Furthermore, as in all businesses, we must pay the going price for the materials and equipment we use. UNITED TELEPHONE COMPANY OF IOWA Without understanding, no business can long be effective in providing service to its customers. This advertisement is one of a series in which the United Telephone System seeks to explain facets of its operations so that our customers can have a better understanding of our business.
