GOOD PROBLEM FOR
MATHEMATICS FANS
Telephone Engineers Point Out
Interesting Mathematical
Phenomenon

According to telephone engineers
of The Bell Telephone Company of
Pennsylvania, the study of telephone
statistics would form as interesting
material for figure enthusiasts as the
researches for checking the distance
of the sun from the moon or the
arrival of the next tidal wave on the
Chilean coast.
One of the most fundamental ard
simple of these problems deals with
the number Of telephone lines that
are required for the telephones in
service.
A simple mathematical chart read
lily explains the phenomenon. II five
dots representing telephones are
placed on a slip of paper, it will be
found that ten lines are needed to
connect each dot with every other
dot When a sixth dot is added, fif-
teen lines are required for establish
ing complete interconnection. A
seventh dot adds six more lines, an
eighth, seven additional lines, etc.
When the problem reaches the stage
of the one offered by The Bell Tele-
phone Company of Pennsylvania
operating close to a million telephones
in the Keystone State, 1t assumes
gigantic proportions. The 1,000.000th
telephone would require 999,999 addi-
tional lines to connect with all other
telephones.
While research and invention have
simplified this problem by introduc-
Ing the telephone switchboard, such
puzzle did at one time confront
telephone engineers.
By the introduction Of the switch
board, however, all the complications
Of outside wiring in the scheme Of
interconnecting telephones are trans
ferred to the central Office itself.
Here is found the equivalent Of the
999, ,9e9 lines that are needed for join
ing the millionth telephone to the
system. Thousands Of miles of wire,
hundreds of switchboard terminals
and innumerable relays and soldered
connections are needed at each
switchboard for this purpose. As the
size of the telephone system increases
there Is proportionate growth in
the complexity Of the switchboard
equipment and wiring.
Nor is the problem completely
solved by the interior wiring. All
switchboards must also be intercon-
nected by trunk lines and the tele-
phones themselves must be Joined to
the switchboard by independent pairs
of wires

STRIKE SAVES
MANY LIVES

PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 5.-John
L. Lewis, leader of the Mine, Work
ers Union, issued statement to-
day in which he said, in part that
$50 men ''are alive today who would
have been dead If there had been
no anthracite strike.
Approximately 600 anthracite
mine workers are killed each year
by accidents in and around the
mines," Lewis declared. THAT
means that so men lose their lives
each month because of the terrible
hazards of the anthracite mining Oc-
cupation.
"The strike has been in effect for
more than five months. Two huns
dred and fifty home-living working
men would have made the supreme
sacrifice in order that the American
public might have fuel.
sThe anthracite operators are
brutally demanding that these work
ers shall arbitrate the price for
which they shall offer themselves
as human sacrifices upon the altar
of public service. They ask the
men to arbitrate the price OF life
and death.
"A soldier on the field Of battle
can do no more than give UP his
life for his country and his flag.
These anthracite mine workers give
up their lives for the welfare and
comfort of their fellow men,"
