In August 1877 the instruments in use in this country numbered only 780, while in Feb. 1885, there were 325,574. There are about 18,000 in Canada and 13,000 in Great Britain. The number of exchanges grew from 100 in 1880 to 782 in 1885. Last year there were 137,223 miles of telephone wire in this country. About 6,000 persons are employed in the exchanges.

Strike Cost May Set New Record If labor disturbances continue throughout 1937 at their present rate, the dollars and cents cost of strikes during the current year may be greater than in any previous year in the nation's history, it is indicated in a preliminary analysis of the subject by the National Association of Manufacturers. In a study of strike costs in manufacturing based upon the amount of wages lost by the workers, the loss of income by employers and the value of the goods which ordinarily would have been produced under normal circumstances, 1919 was found to have been the costliest strike year with an estimated loss to workers, employers and the rest of the public amounting to $3,541,289,399. In only four other years, 1920, 1921, 1922 and 1927 did the strike cost exceed a billion dollars and in none of these years did it reach two billion. In 1936 the strike cost is estimated to have been $369,860,785. In the first six weeks of 1937, two major strikes alone—maritime and General Motors—are estimated to have cost a total of $503,-720,000, or approximately $133,-000,000 more than the entire 1936 cost of strikes. These figures do not include numerous other strikes of a smaller scope which have occurred in 1937. At the present rate, therefore, strike costs in 1937 will exceed $4,000,000,000.
