WOULD HAVE, GOVERNMENT
OWN TELEGRAPH AND PHONE

washington Dec' lo,-GOVeTn-
ment ownership of the telegraph and
telephone lines of the country was
advocated by Postmaster General
Burleson in his annual report.
"a study of the constitutional pur-
poses of the postal establishment
leads to the conviction that the post
Office department should have con-
troll over all means of communication
Of intelligence" he declared. "The
first telegraph line in this country
was maintained and operated as a
part of the postal service, and it is to
be regretted that congress saw fit to
relinquish this facility to private en-
terprise. The. monopolistic nature of
the telegraph business makes it of
vital Importance to the people that
it be conducted by unselfish interests,
ID this can be accomplished only
t4-ough government ownership.
''Thc act of July "a, 1866, proHid-
i-lg or the government acquisition of
the telegraph lines upon payment of
an appraised valuation, and the act
of 1902, directing the postmaster
general TO report to congress the
probable cost of connecting a tele-
graph and telephone system with the
postal service by some feasible plan
are evidences of the policy Of this
government ultimately to acquire and
operate these electrical means of
communication as postal facilities, as
is done by all the principal nations,
the United States alone excepted"
The postmaster general told Pres
ident Wilson that inasmuch as there
exists at present a-real surplus in his
department the time will soon be ripe
for one-cent postage, and that with
the reduction of the postal rate there
should be initiated comprehensive
plans for taking over at least the tele-
graph lines and possibly the tele-
phone lines. ..-..

Roper said: II feel that the English
law decisions holding that a telegram
is letter, and that the telephone, to
all intents and purposes is the tele-
graph, will sustain the government

MAYOR PRACTICALLY KILLS
RESOLUTION OF UNEMPLOYED
The following resolution was pre-
sented to the mayor and council last
night by the agitation committee of
the unemployed:
Whereas, We. the unemployed
people of the city of Chicago, have
reached the. conclusion that, it is
your duty as chief executive of said
city to Immediately do something
practical; and
Whereas, We require and demand
immediate employment; therefore
be belt.-.--.-.-..-..---.-.----------..--- -. .' ..
Resolved, That we demand and
command, from this city and it's head
executive, employment, not charity,
said employment to be remunerated
at full union rate of wages
The council promptly killed the
resolution by referring it to the
mayors commission on QnempIoy-
ment.
A mass meeting will be held tonight
at the 21st Ward Branch Socialist
Hall as protest against the action of
the mayor and council.
