HUDSON STATEMENT
. Oil PHONE SERVICE
""S
Tells Why System Faile d on
Night of Sigma Alpha
Epsilon Fire.
WIRE .WAS BROKEN
Much of Article Devoted to
Alleged Inaccuracies on
k Part of Missourian.
Editor the Missourian: That the
Columbia Telephone system tailed to
give efficient service the night the Sig
ma Alpha Epsilon house burned'is per
fectly clear, andhere has been no
effort to deny or evade responsibility.
But that there was no service from
U:; td 12:20 is untrue, though it may
be some people tried to get service
during that time and failed.
Miss Ruth Rollins volunteered the
Information, that when she discovered
the fire she called central and got the
operator almost instantly. After re-
, porting the fire she asked her father.
C. IS .Rollins, what time It was, and,
after looking, he- said it was "3 min
utes to 12."
Shortly afterwards Mrs. Rollins
made five or six calls, and says she
experienced no trouble, and 'got very
satisfactory service.
The operator says she immediately
tailed the fire department, but got no
answer, and supposed they had gotten
previous noUce and had gone to the
fire. We have no reason to think the
operator would, tell an untruth. She
did not seem to want to evade respon
sibility for failure to give others serv
ice, but there is at least a partial ex
cuse for her failure, of which she did
not know.
Telephone Connection Broken.
In making a thorough examination
of the apparatus, we found one con
nection broken which cut out and
rendered Inoperative the night alarm,
and also the large pilot lamps, leav
ing only the very small lamps asso
ciated with the answering Jacks to at
tract attenUon. and which are not con
spicuous unless one Is directly in front
of them.
Mr. Rollins' number, 248, Is on the
central position at which the night
oaerator remains as the ,moat con
venient position from "which to answer
calls. She of course depends npon
the night bell alarm and the pilot
lamps, which are much larger and
more conspicuous than the Jack
lamps. But, as explained above, one
of the wires connecting this apparatus
was iouna Drosen, rendering ine uen
and Pilot lamps all inoperative.
' The operator, being at the position
where Miss Rollins' signal came in.
she of course saw it and answered im
mediately. But Mr. Brown's number,
692, is two positions away; Dr. Man
ly's. 831. is three positions away;
Professor EUlfTs, 1184, Is four, and
Mr. Sykes' number, 1284, is five posi
tions from the position at which the
operator was located. So that it is
entirely probable the operator never
saw the little Jack lamps, and there
fore, of course, failed to give service.
which we deeply regret, and shall use
everv human endeavor to avoid a
recurrence.
But there are probably more than a
half million wire connections in tms
telephone system, and the most ordi
nary mind will understand that It is
absolutely Impossible to examinethem
every day to see that they are Intact
So that white this break in the con
nection was unfortunate It was clear
ly unavoidable, and was certainly not
culpable.
In its issue of Tuesday the Missou
rian quotes Professor EllifT and Mrs.
Sykes as trying to get central for 15
minutes, but failed, and then adds.
"C. B. Rollins made a similar statement."
Treat Mis Potter Said.
Mr. Rollins voluntarily called at my
office and authorized me to say he
never had any conversation with the
Missourian Tuesdar about the matter,
end that as a matter of, fact he never
attempted to use the telephone tne
night of the fire. The Missourian In
the same issue further says:
"Miss Potter, chief operator, would
make no statement,''
When the reporter asked Miss Pot
ter about the matter she frankly told
him she could not tell him anything
about it; that she did not know there
had been a fire until she came to the
office, and that the night operator had
gone off duty when ahe came. The
reporter then asked where the night
operator was. Miss Potter promptly
answered: "Oh, she's at home asleep,
and I would hate to awaken her; but
she'll come on duty at 9:30 tonight.
and I'll be here and investigate the
matter" Miss Potter added that he
was much surprised when told there-
had been a fire and that she naa noi
been called.
Does this look like "Miss Potter,
chief operator, would make no state
" mentr Didn't she make all the state
ment she could truthfully make?
It is the chief operator's Invariable
rule in case of fire day or night to not
only see that the fire department is
i4.i.t. .nii K.,f flin to call and
notify persons interested In the .lm- to wait on
mediate locality of the fire, as nearly
as possible. When asked why she did
not call the chief operator, the night
operator said she didnt know; that
she. was excited and overlooked doing
bo, which was of course a failure of
duty.
The Missourian of Wednesday says:
"Miss Ida Potter, chief operator of
the Columbia Telephone Company, to
day repudiated all responsibility for
the delay w&lch is said to have caused
the fire to get beyond control."
Beferred to the Manager.
When the reporter asked the chief
operator about the matter, she said to
tne reporter: "See the manager. He
Is going to make a statement" The
reporter replied that she was sent to
interview the chief operator, not the
manager, and left the office.
Does this look like the chief opera
tor attempted to repudiate responsi
bility for failure of service?
The Missourian In same connection
further says:
"a B Rollins said today that he
was able to reach central after 'a lit
tle delaj.'"
Mr. Rollins voluntarily authorizes
me to say further that he said nothing
of the kind, and that as a matter of
feet he did not attempt to use the tele
phone the night of the fire. On the
contrary he says he explained to the
reporter that members of his family
had used the telephone very satisfac
torily several times the night of the
fire, giving the hour of the use, as re
lated above.
So there jou are.
The others mentioned may be cor
rectly quoted. We haven't tried to
find out
But isn't It bad enough to have had
a fa'lure in service without having ihe
case prejudiced by misstatements,
which, seem quite as culpable as fall
ire to give telephone service?
However, as further illustrating the
Imperfections of humanity, and the a!
solute impossibility of avoiding mis
takes, turn to the first page of the
Missourian of Wednesday, large head
lines, top of third column, and read:

As to Telephone Service.
And then, after all, while the great
majority are reasonable and kind.
arent some of us prone to expect a'
little too much of the telephone serv
ice? Why should we expect a higher
degree of efficiency in telephoqe serv
ice than is found In other lines? We
frequently have to wait on railroad
trains, wait for our mall, sometimes
delayed hours and days: wait in
stores, banks, restaurants, and offices
before we) can receive attention; some
times go all over town hunting for
articles that shonld be found In any
store handling such articles; wait till
almost noon for supplies needed for
the noon meal, and then sometimes

erroneously administered doses that

asleep not once, but three times, while
on. duty, and yet Jjothing was said of
this In the Missourian article em
phasizing the fact that subscribers had
trouble getting central. If soldiers on
guard fall of their duty when the pen
alty is death, is it any wonder that an
operator may sometimes succumb to
the frailties of humanity and fall of
duty? We have been conducting this
service m6re than 2.2 years, giving
fire-alarm service all these years, and
this la the only failure in all that tune,
