Quoting Vice Pres. Tracy of the Chi
cagO Tunnel Co., Oscar Hewitt in the
Herald says the total investment in
the automatic phone plant UP to
June 1 this year is $S,4S2,92S; and
that for this the company has eight
exchanges with capacity to serve 34,-
$40 subscribers; that the number of
wires from these exchanges to the
neighborhOod of prospective sub
scribers is about 10000, and that
these should be able to serve IS, 200
subscribers, allowing for the ordin-
airy ratio of paTty-Iine patrons.
In the tunnels the company has 81
miles of conduit OF 1913 miles of duct.
There are also 1913 miles of aerial
cable and 1O7 miles of underground
cable
This is the property the Chicago
Tunnel Co. wants the city's permits
sion to sell to the Bell for $500, 900;
and which the Bell company has
never denied that it intends to throw
on the scrap pile, to junk and put out
of business altogether.
If the city were to forfeit the plant
and take it over we would have as a
starter for municipal telephone sys-
