TO SPEND MORE MONEY
Telephone Company to Erect a
$40, 900 Building and Purchase
$4,000 Switchboard.

George Y. Wallace. president OF the
Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone COM
panV. returned yesterday morning from
IN important business meeting that con-
Sumed three weeks of his time and took
him as far as Boston. Mrs Wallace ac-
companied him and together they en-
loyed pleasant visit among relatives IN
st; Louis and a good outing at the Buff
falO exposition.
AS TO business, Mr.. Wallace said,
the orders of our stockholders are TO
push the work without cessation in all
directions and with all possible speed.
The specific work to be done must be de-
termined by the local board of directors.
but il was the expressed sentiment Of the
directors in the east that the addition to
the building should be erected next year
and that the new switchboard should be
installed The former will cost about
$4,000 and the latter about $4,000
I found it just as difficult as last
year to have orders for telephone sup
plies filled and the pressure seems to be
just as great as ever / placed no orders
for copper Wire because the market is so
unsettled and no one seems to know what
the outcome will be. ] expect TO use 750,-
600 pounds of copper wire next year. As
to the work now under way. / can only
say that il is going ahead satisfactorily
we expect to be in Beaver in ten days in
southern Utah, and VIII push on from
there to Milford and Frisco
Mr.. Wallace said that he found bust
ness conditions good everywhere in the
east so far as he was in a position to
judge. He attended a very pleasant meet
ing of telephone men in Chicago, at which
there Were representatives of twelve diff
ferent telephone companies present, and
got some very useful ideas.
