The Bell Telephone ' Company and its Bill in Parliament THE' Bell Telephone Company is bringing before parliament this session a Bill regarding its authority to seek,new capital, - No. grant or subsidy from parliament is involved. It is entirely a matter of authority to offer new. shares for purchase by investors, from time -to time • in the future as new capital is required for the growth of the system. There are three reasons why the telephone company is asking parliament for this authority, Each of these reasons is important the first reason The telephone system cannot extend to meet the growth of the, country•, unless there is a •' steady supply of new capital year after year. IN a progressive country like Canada the telephone system never stands still. Each year there are thousands of new telephones in new homes and offices. For the next free years the definite needs whish the 'system is under public obligation to meet mean" spending over $120,000,000 in new plant. Year after year, in good times and bad, new money is needed for more telephones if the system is to keep, pace with the country. And of this ,money a great part can be supplied only through the pur- • chase of new shares by investors, the second reason Nereasary pians cannot be made unless there is assurance that money may be obtained. in • the future to complete them, 1JN the telephone busihess it is essentialthat plans a be made for years ahead. There must be cables •and conduits and central ex- changes before new telephones can go in. To wait.. until people are clamoring for service is too. late, Such projects in the past have been undertaken` be- cause the company has boon confident of securing rnoney from investors to put the new equipment into lull service. But if the company is not able 'even to approach in- vestors, its assurance vanishes and to prepare fox: the future becomes impossible. • The telephone system does not need, and will not - seek, all the seventy-five million of new capital pro- vided for in its amendment now, nor next year, nor the year after. . it may not -need it all for a good many years. But' it does need now the assurance that it will be able in the future to go into the market' fornew money whet, it 'is the third reason The company's present authority to seek new capital is' almost exhausted. HF �% N the telephone company began, in 1880. it had authority to sell shares to investors up to half a million dollars, but with the growth of the 'system this authority has been extended by parlia- ment. This has happened, 00 an average,, every eight years" since 18e0. The last anrendrhent by parliament was in 1920. Another amendment hs necessary now be- cause, of the seventy-five million of shares set in 1920, less than ten Million now remain for the com- pany to ofd r to investors.• With over $120,000,000 to be spent during the next five yearse-a substantial part of which' must be pro- vided by sale of new shares -this margin "of less than ten million represents neither the,:steady supply of new capita] nor the assurance of the future which the company must" have to serve the , public with • efficiency, . eight, years from now P' there had not been an amendment 'in 1920 With the right to raise new capital, Ontario mid uebec today would be true •I' Q Y s gg uig with .a telephone system 90 hopelessly behind public requirements thatall branches of ; business would sutfe'r, The telephone company does not 'want that state of affairs to prevail' eight years from` now.:: The •Bill; is to prevent it, 5ucceeg1'.gl ,boys n0ea sago' Sala" rr}oney,7Tenry p`0,4says, they siieid it all 011 selfrlmnraretltent That 2nay be so licit; tl{e 'tronbie is that a numbei of boys seem to tainle ,th'at• their chief inettns of `self innpoiye nitric rine the pool iovurs; the pnrtpre Shoyvs::and such ]ik instatutlgris: 'Choi;e is not, hP' nnpi iqotonoio the weather ' ii; Oaitar, ` whatever; elsq may bosaid agoue.it- Last week we;Jtad it storing issue•a]Lweek, with 'coiisxjeiable .snowfall Then;: •Satuiday eame`.e quick"tihaw and' -the snow' wkns hn`slush,,. in a iew'bou'is.
