Wm TELPHONE PLAN! improvements to Be Made in Service All Over tn State. General Supt. Bitter of the South- ern New England Telephone Company announced yesterday that plans have been partly completed for doubling the Issues. of the company In the State. The company will buy thousands of miles of copper wire, instruments and other apparatus needed in making the improvements decided upon and an- other stocir. issue will probably he he litr. irer estimates that the im- provements and additions contemplated for next year will double the toll line facilities throughout the State. That panymow has three wires the number will be increased to six next year. This increase will be maintained throughout the entire system of the company. in a great many instances new lines will have to be erected and new instru- ments put in. in some cases it will be pinalble to string the additional wires (in the existing lines with the addition of a cross arm on each pole. can these details will be worked out later. The employees under General Super lntendanl. Baker are 'at work prepar- ing estimates showing what improve- ments are needed in the service in the different divisions. This, of course, re- quires a great deal of time and hard work. Tests are to be taken in the different divisions showing the exact conditions existing These tests will enable the oincials to decide how many more wires and operators are needed and will give the oillclals a basis on which to figure for the improvements outlined for next year. These experiments are now being made in the New Haven division and show interesting results. They prove that despite the great increase in host. neas within the last MW and the admitted inadequate facilities the com pany is giving a pretty good service not only in New Haven but around the State Mr. Baker has prepared; a table showing the onlofdown tram rooted at New Hover: on a cer- tain day this month. On the day in question 390 trunk line connections were made in three minutes or less. in other words. in three minutes or less time from the time the subscriber llrat called the telephone odice the de- sired connection was made. The table also shows that 15 of the :90 connections in auction were made ip lesstban surrounds, ninonemin- ute.1l In two minutes and hi in three minutes snaking a total of 225 in three minutes or less. The remaining!“ calls were delay- ed four minutes or longer principally because a party desired was not in or because the nabscrlbar‘s line was in use. investigation into «the causes of delays of unreasonable length showed that In no instance was the telephone company at fault.
