folk. 1t was to see that the Bell COM
pany lived up to Its franchise. took any
steps to make the Bell Company raise
its residence rates to parity with
those of the Southern States. Instead,
the Southern States was forced to cut
Its residence rate to SIS also, to avoid
being driven out of business. The re-
cent cut in rates by the Bell Company,
therefore, is nothing new. but is in line
with it's settled policy eyer since its
competitor appeared in the field.
The Bell Company wants monopoly
of the local field. That is natural. A
monopoly would be highly profitable.
TO secure this monopoly 1t calmly ig-
nored it's franchise and maintained its
SIS rate instead of raising 1t to the s25
minimum rate of the Southern States.
Now it follows up this original cut by
a $12 limited service, at the same time
taking advantage of the fact that its
franchise fixes no maximum rate, to
levy on the business houses to helm it III
it's fight for monopoly. The Southern
States seems to be either unable or I'M
willing to cope with this new move of
the Bell Company. The Councils should
take time by the forelock and amend
the Bell franchise by fixing in il max
imum rate This 1t should do, not to
help the Southern States, but to save
the citizens of Norfolk from telephone

WILL THE SOUTHERN STATES
TURN THE OTHER CHEEKs

There is, of course, no objection to
low telephone rates. The lower the
rates the better, provided they are
made for a legitimate purpose and are
permanent. A temporary reduction in
rates, however, for the purpose of crush
ing competition, is a very different thing,
and in the end BODIES i'll, not good, to
the public.
Recognizing this fact, and the fur
ther fact that the Bell Company was
backed by an abundance of capital, the
Councils sought to insure the con-
tinuance of competition and reasonable
charges by giving to the Southern
States. which was not backed by so
much capital, the power TO fix mini
mum rates for telephone service In
Norfolk city. This advantage, as the
manager OF that company himself says,
the Southern States has never used. 1t
permitted the Bell Company to main
tain an SIS residence rate in violation
of the Bell franchise, and finally cut
It's own rate to that figure.
In fact. the competition seems to
have been more ostensible than real.
The Pilot has no desire to do
the Southern States any injustice, but
if it was seriously DESTROYS of main
tanning itself in the local telephone
field we are utterly unable to under
stand why it neglected to use u clear
power given it by Councils to force the
Bell Company to stop rate cutting.
Instead of using this powerful weapon,
put into its hands by the city govern
ment. it surrendered to the Bell Com
pany the right given it by Councils to
fix the minimum rate for telephone ser
vice in this city, though 1t must have
known that with maximum rate fixed
in it's franchise, this put 1t absolutely
at the mercy of the Bell Company.
This is an extremely odd and queer
thing for aibona fide rival and bust
ness competition to do.
This. we repeat, WAS n reach of UNI
selnshness that we are not able to
understand or interpret In consonancc
with n desire of the Southern states to
remain in the field or to maintain it's
Independent corporate existence. 1t is
HOl cNtu At
(unless it desires to be absorbed) to
view it's approaching humiliation with
so much complacency. We would not
be understood as even limiting that the
acquisition of Southern States stock by
the Bell Company is at the bottom OF
this generosity and supneness, but the
Norfolk public. which thinks it is en-
titled to competitive telephone systems,
will watch with some interest the next
meeting OF the Southern States direc-
tors. 1t would appear that to such n
meeting the presence of the president
of the company, who is now abroad is
not absolutely essential as the vice
president could act in the emergency
In due time we shall see whether the
Southern States will meelsly turn the
other cheek once more
