OF iess independent soempanieA Tno
Attorney general reports that the Ben
company opsrates about l.soo, 900
telephones. compared to about 4,00o,-
900 operated by the combined inde-
pendent opposition. The Bell company
IL found to have q good deal OF q
monopoly In long distance communt-
cation. In addition. as Is generally
understood. 1t owns large block OF
stock In the Western Union Telegraph
Company and virtually controls It's
management. Treating all the wire
companies as common carrier, 1t Will
be necessary for the interstate COM
merce commission to so regulate them
as TO provide cooperation in the pub
lie interest between the various con-
Germs. This would mean general
interchange Of facilities such as has
been insisted on In states where local
utilities have been placed under the
regulation Of state commission. In
turning the problem over to the inter-
state commerce commission for solu-
ton Attorney General Wickersham
suggests the general scope Of the
regulation as follows:
The value of q telephone service de-
Ponds largely upon the facility Of con-
Meeting every individual telephone
user with any point upon any tele-
phone line in the United States; but
this should be attained under condi-
ton which secure to the public the
maximum Of convenience upon the
most reasonable terms consistent with
fair return upon the investment and
under suitable supervision and control
by your honorable body.
With the supervision Of the federal
regulatory body once established other
important questions of general policy
will arise. For instance, it will have
to be decided whether or not to ap-
prove numerous consultations that
have been going on in telephone cir
cles. Should the business be kept on
basis that will involve the semblance
OF competition or should it be encour-
aged to develop into monopoly
Along this line there probably will be
a steadily developing sentiment in
favor OF Capitalization, to the end
that eventually the telegraph and tele-
phone business will become a monop-
oily owned and operated in connection
with the postal department by the
federal government

on the 6ve of his departure for

that his trip has any connection with

He denied also the rumor current
in Atlanta and Birmingham that he,
with.the Woodward interests of Biz

Iron Company, contemplates taking

behalf Of himself and the Woodward
interests, would bid in the A. p. & a.
property when it is offered for sale,
which has been ordered by the United
