cient.
The ordinary person In attempting
to telephone to railroad passenger
station, for example, Is likely to ask
for the wrong number for the purpose
OF his call. for so confusing is the
array Of titles and numbers In the
telephone directory that It is often
difficult to decide upon the department
that is wanted. Frequently the infor.
nation bureau at railroad station,
when appealed to. refers the inquirer
to another telephone number In the
same building. This necessitates tha
payment of a second toll. Telephone
operators are careful TO prevent the
second call from being made without
the payment OF a second nickel.
Both the railroad companies and the
telephone company should do their
best to see that the arrangement OF
department names in the telephone di.
rectory is sufficiently clear to enable
inquirers to call the first time for
the number they really want.
The city ought to have q bureau Of
complaints to which appeals for the
Improvement OF faulty conditions OF
service might be made by patrons OF
local public utility corporation.
The Chicago Telephone Company
charges a much lower rental for Its
service In suburban towns than 1t
does in the city. Yet the officers OF
the corporation have the gall to say
that all OF the big gain in its service
reported at the annual meeting this
year came from thr country. This, OF
course, Is a reason for raising the
rates. The following from the Ch!ca.
20 Daily News shows how the phone
people bank on the reports Of the
city experts"
slight gains in revenues were re-
ported 10 the stockholders of the Chi
cago Telephone Company at the an
nual meeting, although there was a
falling on IN the profits In the city OF
Chicago itself. This loss was due
according 10 President Bernard T.
Sunnys report. to the constantly in
creasing number OF "nickel day
telephones, the revenue on which av
erages s22,70 per annum an against
cost of operation, he said, of s2s.G4
as fixed by one city expert. and s25.2:
as fixed by another city expert. The
pecentage OF nickel telephones In
Chicago increased SO per cent in 1905
and 42 per cent in 1911. The com
pany reports increased earnings In
the suburban division, which offset
the losses in Chicago"
The Telephone Trust doesn't want

%eSA
From o learned Experts" reports
TO the City Council We learn that:
Telephone rates should b raised
because the Bell Telephone Company
owns the local telephone company.
Because the Western Electrical
Company is also owned by the Bell
Telephone Company.
Because the local telephone com.
pany Ia obliged to buy al of its equip
ment and necessaries from the West
ern Electrical Company.
Because neither the Western Elec
trical Company or the local telephone
company would have big enough prof
its to suit the Bell Telephone. which
owns them, II Chicago people wers
not pressed for q little more coin and
their telephone rateu raised.
Because the local telephone com.
pany has increased its capital stoch
from the original 100000 to $27, 7,000.,
600 and $5,000.000 more In bonds.
Because the stockholders would no,
get big enough dividends on this I'M
mense stock Issue II the people Of Chi
cago were not squeezed.
Therefore the telephone company
has the nerve to ask the City Council
to raise the rates on the people OF
Chicago.

The enormous dividends paid to Its
stockholders by the Telephone Trust
are wrung from the pockets Of the
people by excessive telephone charges.
Telephone rates must be reduced
and in time they will be.
The fact that one city council will
barter away the peoples rights Is nc

do the same.
