MERGER ONLY HOPE
FOR PHONE SERVICE
President of Memphis Com.
pany Says Cumberland Only
Can Get Equipment.

That the merging Of the Memphis
Telephone company with the Cumber-
land Telephone e. Telephone company
in Memphis is not only the sole hope
TO get service from his company under
six months and that such n merger also
Is the only hope for the remote even
tuality Of the return to peace-time rates
Is the opinion of Harvey Myers, presi-
dent Of the Memphis Telephone com
pany, which concern was put u Of
business Saturday by fire.
II the merger goes through soon, Mr..
Myers believes the Cumberland could
get emergency equipment at once,
whereas the Memphis company could
not promise to secure means adequate-
ly to serve the public for six months
or more
Efforts since the fire to secure sec
ond hand equipment or emergency
equipment at anything like an early
date 81 far have failed, according to
Mr.. Myers.
Theres are now $500 subscribers OF
the Memphis Telephone company, of
whom some 1000 have no service nj
all. Others have duplicate phones with
the Cumberland. The 1000 could soon
get service under the merger, accord
Ing TO Mr.. Myers view. =
