brought asking mat the Pacific Tele-

morning issued an order dismissing the

The Albany bank sought in this case
to compel the two telephone systems te

telephone system and to interchange
traffic without the necessity of install.
ing a duplication of equipment in each
office of the bank. If the one com.

telephones of both, the charges for
