TELLS HOW COMPETITION DlD
SOME RATE REDUCING


Ernest B. Fisher, secretary Of the
Citizens Independent Telephone
Company of Grand Rapids, Mich,
testified for the government today in
the hearing in the governments suit
against the American Telegraph and
Telephone Company as an alleged
monopoly, contrasted rates in Grand
Rapids with those in other cities of
the same size or smaller, in proof of
his assertion that competition re-
duced rates and improved service.
In Grand Rapids, Fisher says, the
independents had forced the Bell in
terests to cut rates to from $50 to
$36 year for service. In Springfield,
Mass, where the Bell people have a
monopoly, the rate is $72 a year, and
in Albany, N. Y, another city oc-
cupied exclusively by the Bel, the
rate is $96 a year, according to
Fisher.
The Grand Rapids man said that
the benefit to the public from improv-
ed service brought about by COM
petition and from the efforts Of the
competing companies to please their
subscribers equalled the benefits de-
rived from reduced rates.

"In conjunction with this campaign
if the advertising appropriation per-
mitted it would be we'll to have a
couple of well-trained girl demonstra-
tors, who cuold be dressed in costume
to represent the western girl; perhaps
in cowgirl costume. Merely walking
along the street would set the whole
town buzzing. Have them take bas-
kets of sample apples and go from
house to house in the better sections of
the city, get interviews with the house
wives, leave a little cookbook filed with
recipes, and also with some needed ed
ucational matter on varieties. have her
sample an apple of the sort we are
selling, and then take her order on her
nearest grocer for box or two.
