In our Of methods apparatus We are committed
to system. We own, control have the right to
use inventions necessary to operate any system recognized
accepted as the most Efficient The Bel System must
always recognize and in its selection must always be gov
erned BY the necessities Of national service with s COM
ple1 requiremen which is infinitely more e1aeng than
local or limited service
These achievements represent vast expenditures Of
money and immense concentration Of effort which have
been justified by results Of immeasurabe bent to the pub
lie. No local company unaided could bear the financial or
scientific burden Of this work. Such results are possible
only through centralized general staff avoiding wasteful
duplication Of effort, working out problems common to ALL
for the benefit of all.
The pioneers of the Bell system recognized that tee-
phone service they it. was in the broadest sense
public utility; that upon them rested public Obligation
to give the best possible service the most reasonable
rates consistent with risk, investment and the continued
improvement and maintenance Of the property
Without this expenditure of millions and concentration
Of effort the telephone exists could not have been
develo1es.
What have done in working out these great prob
lens in the past should be accepted Is guarantee of
what will do in the future.

TELEPHONE ACHIEVEMENTS


In no line Of human sndsavor has tie inventive brain
Of the scientist contributed more to the worlds progress
than BY the creation Of the art Of telephony Of which the
the Bell System is the embodiment
When the telephone was born, nothing analogous to
telephone service now know it existed. There was
no tradition to guide, no experience to follow.
The system the apparatus the methods-an entire new
art had to be created The art of electrical engineering
did not exist The Bell pioneers, recognizing that
depended upon the highest engineering and technical s
at organized an experimental and research depart
ment, which is directed by a staff Of $50 e.s
and SCIENTIST intending former professo postsrad
uate students scientific investgatothe graduates Of
10 universities.
From its foundation the company has continuously de-
veloped the art New improvements in telephones, switch
boards lines, cables have followed one another with
markable rapidly.
While each successive type Of apparatus to the superb
eal observer suggested similarity, each step in the evou
ion marked decided improvement These changes this
evolution, have not only been continuous but eontnu-
ing. Substantially all Of the plant in use, including
telephones switchboard, cables, and wre has been
sueted, renewed reconstructed in the past 10 years.
Particularly in swtchboards have the changes been 50
radical that installations costing in the aggregate millions
have frequently been discarded after only few years Of
use.
Since 1877 there have been introduced So types and
styles Of receivers and 73 types and styles Of hansmters
Of the 100000 telephone receivers and tansmers
owned BY the Bell Company January l, 1914,
in prior to 1902 while the average age less than Eve

Within 10 years we have expended for construction

most formidable scientific problem confronting the tee-
phone experts.
The retardng effects Of the earth the telephone

No possible improvement in the telephone hansmtter

VILLA SAYS MEXICAN
 WARS MORE HUMANE

Commenting on the European war in the New York World, Gen. Villa says;
 "For some time have received in- structions on civilized warfare. The European war is a revelation to me. War provoked by Germany and Aus tria compared to the struggle of my countrymen for the right to live as free men could be compared to the surgeon who maliciously cuts into the human flesh for the purpose of exact ing fee to one who resorts to the use of the knife to save life. The com. parison of our methods of warfare in Mexico to the dropping of bombs upon sleeping city and the killing of non-combatants as practlced in the European war is like the execution of criminals condemned by law to pre- mediated murder when the rival is killed while asleep"

PRAISES
 PRESIDENT WILSON

In his speech in Kansas City, Kans,, last night, opening the State campaign for the Progressives, Henry J. Allen declared for the new rule in county and State affairs, defended President Wilson's administration in its Mexican and other policies. and declared that the new spirit in politics called for the elimination os politics from local and State offices.
 "The only argument that is made for the amalgamation of the Progress sive and Republican parties is that united we can whip the Democrats. That has been the aim of all our po- litical activities as far back as I can remember. That is the reason we have made such slow progress in the development of government. Has 1t occurred to you that possibly the Democrats do not deserve to be whipped? If Woodrow Wilson carries out his program and succeeds in do- ing what everyone comedies that he is trying to do, possibly the American people will demand his reelection, and why shouldn't they? That is the new idea, the new spirit in poll. tics.
 'If he fails 1t will be because his party is merely the Democratic party and unable to catch the new spirit Then his party should be defeated just as the Republican party was de, teated.
 Let us get the vision of the gov ernment, rather than the party.
 "The people must first get posses sion of the government and then ad minister 1t for the people who live un der it and who pay the costs of the administration. We can neither re, duce taxes nor promote the public welfare upon platform of whipping the Democrats. '"--Kansas City Star Progressive).

AMERICAN TYPElvRiTERs
 AFTER FOREIGN TRADE

NEW YORK, Sept. 14,-Typewriter manufacturers are not yet curtailing operations.
 '. In the face of closed European mar. kets the Underwood Typewriter Co.,, following It's two weeks shutdown, has resumed operations on a practi- cally normal basis.
 The Remington Typewriter Co.. which kept It's factories closed for an extra week, has now reopened in all except the Yost plant. one of the smallest which turns out goods for export. The Remington forces have been slightly cut down, however.
 The August sales of the Remington Co. showed a gain over the same month of last year, attributed largely to extensive advertising.
 The Underwood and Remington com. panies export about one-third of their respective outputs, machines being sent to practically every corner of the globe. The best customers for Ameri- can-made typewriters have for years been England and her possessions, notably Australia and Canada.
 South America has been large user of German typewriters, but man. ufacturers here claim that while they undersell tho American makes the pur- chasers get an inferior machine. Now that Germany's fleet has been indef- nitely tied up the American typewrit- CT manufacturer will make a strong CT endeavor than heretofore to cap ture that portion of the South Ameri- can trade not already held here.

NEW YORK, Sept 14.--Represen. tatlYes Of American manufacturers who left last month for South Amerl. ca in flocks In search of trade that previously has been going to Europe say that Americana must not count too much on that country for while. They agree that the feeling toward the United States in Brazil. Argen- tine, Paraguay, Uragpay Chile, and the other countries Is better than ever 1t was and South Americans look up. on the United States as the friend of all Latin American countries, but the war in Europe, following long period of depression, has all but de. stroyed the purchasing ability of the people. It is the uniform opinion that there will be Q slow but steady growth in the demand for American made goods.

REASONS WHY TRADE
 RESPONDS SLOWLY

BOSTON, Mas, Sept. IA. Vice President Franklin of the Internation- al Marine says: "The Reason why American ports are filled with idle ships is that England is overstocked with grain and food supplies and there are no ports open on the Continent to ship grain to. Big orders were re-
 ceived here before the war and steamships came across ready to take grain over, but war broke out and can celled everything. Holland will need grain, but has no money to purchase it. Little Belgium is in the same fix, but I expect that Great Britain will purchase big shipments of grain later and send 1t to Antwerp to help her ally. The same idle conditions exist in the South American trade, owing to bad financial conditions"
