111119 Southern New England Tele-
hone company has inaugurated a plan.
uteuded to facilitate the business ov-
_ its toll line service says the New
Haven Register. and since the plan
has been in operation there has been
his delay than heretofore. Subscribers
w
ow‘a‘dsys to‘ get the party desired on
he telephone in another part of the
state. The scheme adopted is what
he telephone officials call “routing. "
oretofore when a subscrlbm wanted
o1t1nlk with some one in Hartford or
lsewhero out of town. the toll line
operators made the wire connectionby
a direct route. Frequently when a rush
. of, “business was going on over the
wires between two points the report
r'came back from central that the wire
was busy. This report is not given so
frequently. If a subscriber wants to
talk with another in Hartford and
wires of the direct line between the
two points are ,in use the toll line 011
craters take another route ih1ough the
state to not a wire connection to liar:-
ford. There are lines available for
1 [this purpose. Central can choose a
second route via Middletown and
[thence to Hartford, or the operator
may still go another route through ex
changes of the Southern New England
cities. This relieves the congestion
11 the main line and affords quicker
, service to the patrons of the service.
The plan of routing was niranged by
C B. Doolittle. superintendent of the
toll line service of the Southern New
England Telephone Compnnv. . in
1 connection with the new plan other
changes have gone into effect which
are intended for the improvement of
the company's, service throughout the
, state.
