At the final session of the County Council on Wednesday, Councillor Anthony Ochs. who represented the county at the various gatherings oi independent telephone organizations, presented his report, which was re- ccived and placed on file. Briefly it was as follows: independent telephoning is making immense strides all over Canada, in spite of all kinds of opposition trom a hostile company, and a perversion; of legislation which allows a law who) happen to be in authority to barter the privileges of the many. Lust year 5,000 independent phones Were established as compared with 12,000 ot the Bell. this,increatte took place mainly in rural constituencies, but many municipalities are still tied up with exclusive lrnnchises, among which is the County Town. A number of towns have enacting- ed competition, and as a consequence hue A large increase in service. It is n notation: tact thnt when the Bell hat, the exclusive privilege the phone services ire limited large- tr to the bushes: interests, hut where independent telephoning come: into play. the cmvenienoe it “(ended to the home: to a tat greater de- gree, and nine: independent long dia- tattee lines ne_becomlng estwtriistted, independent companies um being put on a better footing, State owned long distance with municipal local sen-ice would be the ideal position of the 1clcphone. I would like to see Gall, Preston and Hespeler, Incl'lk-rlin and Waterloo establish such plants. This would cut the rate in two. I attended the meeting pt the In- dependent Telephone Association in Toronto this year, and one could not but feel the spirit ol hamlulness trom so many sections ot our coun- try to: cheaper telephone service, and we cannot do better than beqttrath to our successors in other the care ol this great public boom which may be enjoyed by trrneing the cost within tii ‘reach _ ot all NOW READY "loo Yun‘ Progress in Waterloo County."
