Talk about Telephone Tyranny:
From the Chicago Tribune July 20,
1913:
Suits against the Chicago Telephone
company to force It to replace tele.
phones taken out Of his drug store
and to recover damages, 1t Is expected,
will be fled next week by M. w. Ran.
kin of 1888 South State street.
The action Of the company in tear.
ing out telephones because subscribers
also had the automatic service will
be one Of the first things called to
the attention Of the new complaint
bureau when 1t Is organized within
few days.
| That the company has the right to
give or refuse service to druggists or
those having public telephones was
the contention yesterday Of A. r. Bone,
commercial superintendent Of the com.
pany. This was denied by Aid. Sits,
chairman of the gas, oil and electric
light committee. which drew up the
ordinance under which the company
IL operating.
I "The druggists and others are merely
agents for the company" is the ex.
PLANTATION Mr.. Bone gave. "They are
working for us and we can discharge
them II we wish. They cannot repre-.
sent us II they also represent com.
peting company. These men are paid
to have the telephones In their places
and we have the right to control
them"
"That Is rubbish" commented Aid.
Sits. "The telephone company must
give service to any person or Arm In
Chicago demanding 1t II It Is physical
J ly possible. There Is nothing In the
> ordinance giving this so.called right.
The complaint bureau will be ready
to start work in few days and these
cases probably will be among THE first
taken up"

paigns ever commenced In Cook
