In an attack upon the Company made by a witness before the Select Parliamentary Committee, the charge indicated by the above query was made, being expressed in the follow- ing terms: * Another reason for the excessive charges is the fact {hat the development of the telephone has passed through several stages since the date of the original patents, and at cach stage the apparatus in use became obsolete, rendering it necessary in the larger exchanges for the company to practically -re- and install improved plant. There being no adequate depreciation fund in existence to cover construct their system the cost of this reconstruction, duplicated for about one-third of and bond issue."

The only logical Sequence to the argument then, is that to provide a revenue with hich to meet the demands made by these ever-recurring changes in raised. high ! The charge of over-capitalization thus refutes itself. It The President of this Company in his sworn evidence, backed by indisputable records, showed is not based upon fact, that these improvements have not been paid for $92.00 per subscriber, After twenty-five years of operation, all the time keeping pace with the advancement in the art of telephony, the Bell Telephone Company of Canada, instead of being ovér-capi- the lowest capitalization per subscriber of any general system of which records have bee talized as claimed, has really produced.
