The Public Service Recall Committee which performed the great labor of securing,
77,000 names to recall petitions and filed them with the Secretary of Stated requiring ;
a recall election ion Public Service Ckimmissioners Fred A. Williams arid Fred G. Buch
tel, called a nominating- assembly on May 4, 1922, which dtily nominated T. M Kerri- ,
gan, a wounded ex-soldier, and Newton McCoy, a highly; respected citizen, for these'
respective positions.!' " - 1 i j ,
It: was expected' that the henchmen of the public utility: corporations would exert
themselves. to make additional nominations in an attempt to defeat the recall.
We did not expectfpswald West, who arhasWed a large fortune during the bloodiest
fighting of the great war, to bring out anothercandidate against a wounded ex-servicer
man. It should be remembered, however, that Oswald West received a. fee of $50,000
for consolidating the Home Telephone Company with the Pacific Telephone - & - Tele-'
graph Company, thereby eliminating competition. c 7 " . - . , 4 J
;Be not deceived by ..the side plays o; the: telephone company. Vote-and- work, for
Newton McCoy to defeat Buchtel and T. 'MTerrigan to defeat Williams and you avflf
thereby secure the full benefit of the recall election and reduced rates, all along the line
