After a year of inquiry on the part of the Public Service Com- milssion, after a year of evasion and pretended co-operation on the part of the New York Telephone Company, the commission at last decides to uphold the rights of the New York public. | The company must now drop its sly scheme to’involve the com- mission in a complicated and endless inventory of up-State telegraph poles and wires. It must fairly answer the question why it should not » give Now York telephone users the rates to which their enormous patronage has long entitled them. With half the volume of New York’s telephone business, Chicago hhas telephone rates 25 per cent. cheaper than those here and no toll- gate exactions. In one year telephone users in this city piled up profits of more than $16,000,000 for the New York Telephone Company. In one year New York City contributed 95 per cent. of the entire net earn-| ings for all telephone operation covering New York State and the northern part of New Jorsey. | = The Evening Worf has shown conclusively that the New York ephone Company has used its huge profits derived from business iW this city, not to make better rates for its metropolitan subscribers, The Evening World Da Can You sd i Peery Beat It! ily Magazine: Friday: September 18, 1914 WHERE IN THE Y Ae AS, WORLD PINS 7 bat to further its schemes of expansion and monopoly elsewhere. * “Why must this city he milked?
