The question whether the telephone
systems OF this country shall be taxi
en- over by the Government--which
question Will be answered by the peo-
pie and by them alone--resolves itself
into this single inquiry: "What is
best for the body public?"
AS first consideration. It would
seem that the American public must
taNe counsel with itself as 70 the
probability of the Federal Govern
ment maintaining the high standard
OF telephone service which now OBJ
tains in this country: for good tele-
phone service Americans must and
will have.
AS a nation. America is gladly pay
ing for speed and efficiency. comfort
and even luxury I'm its public service (:
the best Is none too good. and never
viii be. Particularly as TO means of
transportation, either OF goods or
persons, of written word or speech.
the increasing demand for speed Is
insistent and extension OF facilities
imperative. Thoroughly efficient and
satisfactory telephone service is de-
manded, and-because that is the
only standard our business and social
development will tolerate--the Amer
lean people are disposed TO pay a
fair price for e.
Therein do they diner from their
neighbors across the seas The Lon
doner or the Partisan will endure in
different telephone service if only it
be cheap. As a rule, the question OF
increasing the quality disturbs .him
not a bit. so long as the cost is low
and so long as the service does not
deteriOrate TO quite that level which
has recently called forth the wide
spread indignation and protest of
several European nations.
On the other hand. that the tele-
phone service of this country Is the
best in the world, foreigners who
have used IL do not hesitate to agree.
Ii is better, not merely because this
country has the biggest switchhoards,
or the longest lines, or the best
trained operating force, but because
It Is most widely available and most
widely used. What the American
people have demanded and received
is the most useful telephone service
That has been their principal demand
for IL has been their most essential
requirement
What has been the result? Our
American telephone systems have
left far behind their Government
