Potomac Rising Hourly;
Little Damage Expected

All is not quiet along the Potomac. 1t is
rising every minute.
This morning will see the swirling wat
ers Of the historic stream at their height.
At an early hour this morning the river
was nearly ten feet out of its banks and
still a-coming. There is practically no
debris being carried. not a sign Of ice.
and there Is little likelihood OF the
bridges spanning the Potomac suffering
dar'age. At Harpers Ferry, the section
which is contributing the main volume
of flood, the river was IS feet higher than
usual. At williamsport the river was %
feet above normal
Rivermen state that today will see the
subsistence of the floods. An unusual
amount of snow and rain in the noun
famous district, through which the Poto-
mac flows, around Harpers Ferry. is re-

PRIVATE OWNERSHIP
OF TELEPHONES UPHELD
I. E. Boiseau Tells What Has Been
Done for PubIic,s Convenience.

Advocates Of government ownrship OF
the telephone hnesIof the District under
the Lewis bill have not only warped
the facts, but in some cases deliberately
misstated them" This charge came from
j. Il. Boiseau. travelling representative Of
the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone
Company, speaking before the District
Single Tax Association in the Public Ii
hrary last night. .
Mr.. Boiseau recounted the history OF
the telephone to the present day. He
stated that the question for the public
was not who owned the telephone sys-
TENS. but the kind of service to be had.
ut has been the policy of the tele-
phone company to put a telephone In
every home said Mr.. Boiseau, "and
we have not waited for a man to ask
for a phone; We go to him. In japan,
where the telephone is controlled by the
government. a man makes out his ap-
plication for a telephone and waits un-
til he gets 1t. II he wants to, he can
sell his place on. the register of wait
ing applicants, or will 1t as a legacy
to his children. But he waits and waits.
THE telephone company has spent more
money to improve service than the gov
ernment spent building the Panama
Canal. -
I'm France, you have to actually buy
the telephone before It Is installed. Here
you do not have to pay a cent.
There is one telephone in this coun-
try to every ten Inhabitants. In Wash
ington there are 6O,o0o telephones with
a population of 10000 people"
