President-Elect Wilson Opposed to Monopoly and Phone Trust
A call for curbing the Telephone Trust dominates a broad critique of current rates and corporate power. The piece argues Wilson will push to dismantle monopolies, highlights American Telephone and Telegraph's vast reach, and urges a referendum on phone rates to force lower costs. It attacks official favoritism toward the trust and demands public rebates and legislative action.
