Public hearing on New York Telephone franchise fails
City Council Monday night failed to garner citizen opinion on a petition by the New York Telephone Company to use local streets for poles and wires under a twenty year franchise. Judge Wilbur A. Heistey opposed the plan, warning against monopolistic control and long encumbrance of streets, while other speakers offered little opposition. The ordinance to grant permission and consent was intro duced and ordered to take its usual course.
