REVENUE LAW MAKES
CITY CHARTERS VOID
Attorney General of ARIZONA Holds
The municipalities Cannot Ignore
The Revenue Statute.

Phoenix. Ariz., Sept. 22.-That senate
bill No. %, the general revenue law
passed by the legislature last spring,
sUpercedes all city charters, is the
opinion of, attorney general George
Purdy Billiard.
The opinion is rendered in response
to an inquiry from the state tax COM
mission. The city officials of Phoenix
told the commissioners that S433, 900
is needed to conduct the business of
the municipality during the next year,
but under the new tax law no CITY or
county is allowed to raise by taxa
ton an amount greater by ten per cent
than the amount collected the pre-
vious year. Phoenix has a charter
that was adopted many years before
that law became effective. and it gives
the council unlimited power in the
matter of taxation. Billiard decided
that that power was curtailed by SEN
ate bill %.
It is expected that the attorney gen
eral will also decide that the Prescott
city assessment must be raised to 100
per cent of the value of the property.
That property be assessed at its cash
value is one of the provisions of that
law, but in Prescott the council and
assessor have set IS per cent as the
standard, contending that the commits
SION has no authority over them.

COURTESY TOWARDS
TELEPHONE GIRLS
Management of Mountain States Com
Pany Makes All Employees Treat
Its Girls With Consideration.

Denver, Colorado, Sept. 22-One of
the lagrest employers of women in the
country in skilled work is the Noun
tain States Telephone & Telegraph
company of this city. The company
employs about 5000 girls in the op-
Grafton of the telephone service Of
the seven states in the inter noun
tain west in which it operates The
company insists on the term young
ladies" in any description of its en-
ployes and in every department the
first rule of the company is that each
IS shown the same courtesy that would
be given in that department if a So
ciety woman called on business. The
company's officials say it pays to
maintain the fixed rule that even the
youngest apprentice, or student" as
the beginners are called, is entitled to
and should be given the most courteous
treatment.
There are 500 exchanges in the
states of Montana, Wyoming, Idaho,
Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Ari-
IONA, in which the Mountain States
Telephone & Telegraph company op
crates and these exchanges are
manned by forces Of workers who have
acquired high technical skill in the
operation of the telephone switch
board. Many of the exchanges are
only men required being those who
attend to mechanical affairs in con-
nection with the plant and the lines.
Each year hundreds of the employees
of the company who have learned the
management of a telephone switch
board go into the service of large cor
porations or firms where the manage
ment of the private exchange is given
into their charge. In the past 25
years this branch of employment for
women has developed in the west
faster than any other branch Of ser
vice.
The telephone company employs
thousands of new recruits every year
and its officials believe the system
of promptness, politeness and eff
cheney taught by the company is a
splendid practical education for girls
who are adapted to work requiring
mental alertness.
