Asks for Investigation.

The complaint points out that the re-
fusal OF the defendant company to enter

Cites Discrimination.

The complainant says he will show the
commission that there are certain loca-
tons north Of this proposed boundary
which are closer to the circumference OF
this circle and which are also nearer the
District line than are certain parts Of the
territory south of the contemplated boun-
Diary. He says this discrimination is due
to the irregularity Of the boundary and
the inconsistent and discriminatory way
in which 1t is established. He says fur
Their that even though these near places
are in the same general direction from
Washington and are more thiclxly settled
than some of the territory south of this
boundary. the defendant contends that
all subscribers within this area must be
connected with what is known as q Mary
land telephone exchange. which the com
plainant says is not adequate TO his re-
quirements.
1t is asserted in the complaint that it
is proposed to charge . cents for each
fve-minute call from these nearer" tele-
phones to any telephone connected with
any Of the District exchanges. He says
he further understands that where a call
is made from any of the telephones in the
territory south OF the proposed line when
connected with the District exchanges to
station beyond this line. even though
the telephone called is, by direct line,
nearer to the District and the circumfer-
ence Of the mile radius than Is some of
the territory south of this arbitrary line,
there also will be a toll charge of ) cents.
