PURPOSE—Company intends to use the proceeds from the sale of
debentures, together with other funds, for advances to subsidiary
associated
companies;
for the purchase of
stock offered for

companies; for extensions, additions and im¬
provements to its own telephone plant; and for general corporate
purposes.
The company is unable to determine the amount of the
proceeds which will be devoted to any one of the foregoing purposes.
Since the war the company and its subsidiaries have been making
large expenditures for new construction in order to meet the demands
for
telephone service and to
further improve the service.
Conse¬
quently, it has been necessary to obtain large amounts of new capital
through the sale of securities of the company and of its subsidiaries.
Practically all of the equipment, apparatus and materials used in
construction
plant, other than buildings, of the company and its
telephone subsidiaries is purchased from or through Western Electric
