THE 1931 RISE AGAINST THE BELL MONOPOLY
(Ao Editorial
The people are tired of the sway of the Ball In
terests Oovemora and legislators are tired of Bell
lobbyists Corporation Commissions are Ured of Bell
methods
1931 promises to be a disturbing year for the Bell
Companies in alt parte of tha Country However the
old saying- “as y sow ao shall ye rasp MiU holds
good and is appllcabla to the A T to T and It's X
associated companies Tha Bell "boya" brought thto
present condition upon themselves They hav no
one to blame but themselves
It's going to take “ail the kings horses and aU the
kings men" to try and pull old Mother Bell out of the
mire that she baa gotten herself Into Bell lawyer
and Bell lobbyists are going to be worked overtime
but their work will be fruitless The will of the peo-
ple to about to speak
Our great Country ha a grown and prospered on
democratic principles fair play and free speech Such
huge concerns as tha Bell Telephone Interests needs
curbing checking and close supervision
WE COMMEND OOVERNOR MURRAY FOR
HIS RECENT STATEMENT "I AM OOINO INTO
THE BELL TELEPHONE NEXT"
The Oklahoma Corporation Commission haa be-
fore it a resolution passed by the last legislature au-
thorising a thorough investigation of the Bell Tele-
phone Company in Oklahoma
The mayors of Wisconsin have asked a statewide
investigation of Bell Telephone rates
The states of Michigan and Ohio have state wide
cases in process against the Bell Telephone Compan-
ies The city of Chicago is prosecuting It's rate case
against the Bell Company
During the 55 years since the telephone was In-
vented In 1576 the industry has grown from 2 tele
phones In 1576 to 20201000 In 1931 in the United
States The business from It's beginning has foster-
ed monopolistic tendencies and monopolies sometimes
forget about what la for the best interests of the people
they serve
During the first 25 years after the invention of
the telephone while the Bell patents were In effect
the telephone made alow progress
Between 1900 and 1906 when the Independently
formed companies some 6000 of them began to spring
up In all sections of the country the telephone took
on new life
In 1906 the Bell only operated 2 12 million tele-
phones and the Independents had In service S million
telephones
During the past 25 years since 1906 the Bell Com
panics have concentrated mainly on gaining the mono
poly of the telephone industry Until today the 7411
small independent companies only operate some
4519 000 telephones while the 25 Bell companies have '
In service 15682000 Instruments
The more complete haa become the Bell monopoly
of the telephone Industry the more powerful haa be
eome the company The tide is about to turn Cities
Mate and the National Government are becoming
cognisant that this great giant needs shaving and
taming
The next session of the National Congress win
more than likely aee an active Investigation of the
Bell and A T ft T companies ordered
Future sessions of the state legislatures will ae
the lead of Kansas Wisconsin and Missouri followed
by placing more stringent regulations on the Bell
companies operating in the various states and moM
important of all are the A T ft T made a state util-
Ity and subject to the state reguatory commission In
each state
Oklahoma's 19M UU revrnwe
During 1930 the Bell companies in Oklahoma did
a toll business of well over 6 millions of dollar If
each of the 152 Bell operated exchange in Oklahoma
had received credit for the portion of this vaM Income
that It helped to create there would more than likely
be a general rate reduction in order In every town
In Oklahoma whre tha Bell company has an exchange
What The Ctttoa Are Doing
Several Oklahoma cl Uet are checking Into the
operations of the Bell company with regards to pay
ing city taxes Most notable among these are Vtntta
Tulsa and Muskogee Cities all over the country are
beginning to do the same thing Chicago is taking
the lead
In VINITA It has been learned that the BeU Cw
pany when granted a franchise in 1199 was supposed
to pay the etty S cents per residence phone and 10
cents per business phone per month This tax ao far
as can be learned was never paid Until at this time
the BeU Company Is indebted to Vlnita in the estimat-
ed amount of 916000 00
During the year 1914 the city councU of Vrniu
put an annual occupation tax cm the BeU Company
in the amount of 914900 per year This tax is detin
quent and if the Bell were forced to pay up tha Vtnlta
city treasury would gain tome 9250000
If the BeU paid up aU the chy taxes it owes Vlnita
the city treasury would be swelled by mm 920500-00
The VUiila clly ooundl is at this Urns investigat-
ing the matter and no doubt will shortly Wing court
action against the BeU Company
On May 4th 1931 the city of Tulsa brought suit
against the BeU for 9500000 00 that the city claims U
Is due from the BeU for the Bell’s operations In Tulsa
since about 1923 when the telephone franchise expired
The telephone compeny contends that some state
law enacted in 1921 statute No 5546 gives it the right
to operate in Tulsa without a franchise and without
paving city taxes The city contends that It’s charter
ahirh demands that utilities pay city taxes supercedes
this state statute
The Bells contentions to get out of paying the
9500 ooo 00 claimed by the city of Tulsa are seemingly
verv negligible as evidenced by the fact that on June
10(h the telephone lawyers sought a private conference
with the city attorneys evidently for the purpose of
tring to pursuade the city to drop It's case
Muskogee haa a almillar case about to be brought
against the Bell Company The Bell charter In Mus
kKoe expired eight years ago The Muskogee city
charter rails for all utilities to pay city taxes In the
amount of one percent of their gross revenue On
Um basis the Bell company owes the city of Muskogee
upwards of 940000 00 And if made to pay each year
as do tlie other utiUties In Muskogee the city of Mus
koRce would receive from this source something like
95 ooo 00 a year it does not now get
In Chicago the alleged Indebtedness fo the BeU
Company to the city has risen to 94367000 00 since
the expiration of the BeU franchise In 1929
This Is computed on the basts that the telephone
company should pay the city 3't of it s groas Income
annually
There is also a dispute as with regards the city
telephones in use The telephone company under the
old franchise furnished the city with It s telephones
free Whereby if the city had to pay for thla tele-
phone service it would cost the city something like
1200000 00 annually
The subject of the division of the huge long dis-
tance revenue Is aao part of the controversy Because
if the long distance revenue created in Chicago by the
BeU Company is credited to the parent company In
New York the city’s earnings on the 3 basis would
not be nearly as great as if the long distance revenue
was credited by the telephone company to the Chicago
exchanges
SUMMING UP
1931 will surely see the voice of the people cause
the BeU Companies a disturbed year and rightly so
"It's a long lane that has no turning" and It's now
time for the lane to turn In the IntereM of the public
and not for the grasping telephone monopoly
When Oovemor Murray and the State Corpor
a Uon Commission get into action In their investigation
of the BeU Company In Oklahoma the people wtU
benefit Among other things It wlU be learned that
If the exchanges of the BeU wet given proper credit
for the long distance business they create that phone
rentals could be materially reduced also what the
connection is of the BeU Telephone company te with
the Western Electric (It's supply house) and the A
T ft T (It's parent company) and It will also be
learned what It really costs to haul a toU call per
mile
