GOVERNMENT PHONES
TO BE ADVOCATED
Lewis Will Urge Action At
Next Session of
Congress.

WASHINGTON, Feb 4--Legisla
ton TOR government purchase Of tel
ephone lines in the United States,
and their operation as part of the post
al machinery. as proposed by Post
master-General Burleson and Repre-
sentative David ]. Lewis. of Maryland,
will not be pressed at this session of
the congress. It's advocates are plan
ming for an energetic fight in the next
session.
Steps will be taken to sound the SEN
timent of the country A campaign OF
information will be made. Represent
ative Lewis, who has made an exhaust
i've study of the problem will deliver
a number of speeches laying before
the country the results and his con-
illusions from the investigation he has
made The speech MI. Lewis made
before the Republican Club of New
York, yesterday. is part OF the cam
paign of publicity.
Need Backing Of Country.
The men who are behind the leg1sla-
ton believe they will be in better po-
sition to make successful fight with
sentiment back home aroused in
favor of it. The publication of the de-
tailed recommendations of Postmaster
General Burleson in favor of govern
ment ownership Of lines of communica
ton has stirred up the question again
In Washington, and has caused con
gressmen to begin studying the propo-
sition.
Advocates of the Burleson Lewis
proposition believe the house is fav-
orahle to the legislation. but there eN-
lists considerable doubt in regard to
the senate 1t is realized that public
sentiment must be aroused before the
senate will get in line. Therefore,
during the congressional campaign
next fall, it is expected that there will
be a good deal said on the stump
about the government taking over the
telephone lines.
