Aid. James Bowler and Atty
Schuyler then tried to show that a
thorough inquiry was made last year
under Edward Bemis, the city phone
expert, whose figures are taken as
very reliable, and he had certified
that the Automatic has over 10000
subscribers. Aids. Sits and Merriam
broke in and forced Bowler and
Schuyler to admit that it was a prop
erty appraisal and not a check of
subscribers that Bemis made.
After Aid. Merriam read the num-
Der of subscribers who keep on get
ting bills from the Automatic after
they have ordered the phones taken
out, Aid. Charles Twigg, who has
lately shown a new friendliness for
the Bell Co., moved that the whole
question be thrown over till May l..
''It is not right to entangle the new
council with our action. I'm sick of
the whole business" said Twigg. The
motion carried.
What it would cost for a complete
reliable check that would show ex-
actly how many subscribers the Auto .,
matte has was talked over. Guesses
were offered that it would cost from
81, 900 to $4,000. City Electrician
Ray Palmer said 100000 Palmer
thought the Automatic's books
should be gone over Capt. Horace B.
Wild, citizen spectator, took the
floor and said that the further they
went into the books of the Automatic
the less they would know about the
Automatic's business.
The one point nobody disputed was
that the Automatic property is run
ming down, it is almost impossible for
subscribers to get repairs, hundreds
of subscribers don't pay bills and
service is rotten" All these condi-
tons back up the charge that the

BLOCK PLAN TO CHECK UP THE
AUTOMATIC SUBSCRIBERS

AUTOMATIC SUBSCRIBERS
B. F. Sunny and the Chicago Bell
Telephone Co. are afraid to have the
exact number of subscribers to the
Automatic phone, service made
known. Aldermen who have been vot-
ing for the Bell Co. held back Satur-
day and would not talk nor vote in
favor of having a check made to find
out exactly how many paid subscrib-
ers are using the Automatic.
Sam Ettelson and Dan Schuyler,
lawyers for the Automatic, set up the
claim that there are 1924 subscrib-
ers. The officers of the Automatic
say So.
Assistant City Electrician King said
that Dec. the Automatic was send
ing bills to 25,849 subscribers. A let
ter from King read to the committee
had the words: "These figures have
no direct relation to the number of
bonafide subscribers.
Aid Charles Merriam kicked in
with some facts he had found He |
called up the first fifty numbers in the |
Automatic directory Seven did not |
answer. Eighteen more said they
were not subscribers. Some had noti7
fed the company they wanted their
phones taken out. Others said they |
never used the phone and never paid |
their bills and did not call themselves
subscribers.
Sam Ettelson was sorry about this. |
He told Merriam so. He said: After |
we have been negotiating for ten
months you come in and say we
haven't got the 10000 subscribers re-
quired by law. Why didn't you make
an inquiry on this ten months ago
when this matter was first opened
up?"
Merriam replied: Gas trustee for
the city it is my duty to find out /
whether you have 10000 subscribers.

SULPHUR IS THE ONLY THING FOR ITCHING ECZEMA
Use like cold cream to srlbdue irritation and clear
 the skin.

In the treatment of the various forms of disfigurfng, itching and burn ing Eczema such as Acne, Ringworm, Salt Rheum, there is nothing known that can take the place of bold-sul- phur cream.
 It effects such prompt relief, even in the aggravated Eczema, that it is a, never-ending source of amazement to physicians.
 For years boId-sulphur has occu- pied a secure position in the treatment of cutaneous eruptions by reason of it's cooling, destroying prop critics. Bold-sulphur is not only para suicidal, but antipruritic and antisep- tic, therefore invaluable in overcom- ing irritable and inf1ammatory affec- tions of the skin. While not always establishing a permanent cure, yet in every instance 1t instantly stops the agonizing itching; subdues the irrita- ton and heals the inflamed, raw skin right up and it is often years later be- fore any Eczema eruption again ap- pears.
 Those troubled should obtain from any good pharmacist an ounce of bold-suIphur cream and apply 1t di- rectly upon the abrasion like an or dinary cold cream. It isn't unpIeas- ant and the prompt relief afforded is vary welcome--AdV.
