2 1 8 Telephone Systems of the Continent of Europe 



X. GREECE 



To date of writing (March 1895) no telephone exchange has been 

 opened for public use in Greece, but a small one exists for police 

 purposes only between Athens and the Piraeus. A law was, 

 however, passed in 1893 reserving the establishment of a public 

 exchange in Athens and the Piraeus to the State, but authorising 

 the granting of concessions for the other towns to individuals or 

 private companies.
