his experts. who have been working
for months on the matter. report to
him that II love-making and private
messages were cut from the phones
during the day this could be reduced
to $4,000.
y Ousler serves notice that during the
coming year there win be but $4,000
worth of phoning done. It has been
found that trunk lines are tied up .
good part of each day by clerks talk
ing with their sweethearts. Ousler has
found out for himself that this IL the
case. and Is able to give dates and
other figures.
: Hereafter any one caught using the
