Home Independent Telephone to Consolidate Systems
The Home Independent Telephone company advances a plan to merge La Grande Union Cove Joseph Elgin Enterprise Wallowa Lostine and other toll lines into a single system. A temporary trial utilises a new machine shop and three La Grande to Union circuits plus copper toll links to Joseph and intermediate points. About 4 237 subscribers across towns will gain universal service within days though full integration may take 60 to 90 days. Rates will rise slightly for business subscribers while those with both lines may see savings. The company cites higher capital per telephone and higher operating costs as reasons for charges. Public service duties require the company to provide reliable service at reasonable rates.
