Washington, D. c. = The United
States government at late hour had
received no notification from Germany
that American consuls, originally &C
credited to Belgium, would be required
to obtain new exequaturs or certificates
of authority Until such notice is
communicated and its form is ex-
amined, high officials said the Ameri-
can government would be unable to de-
termine a course of action
Officials here regarded the points
involved as of delicate character and
would say only that they would study
various precedents before reaching 9
decision
In reply to question recently as ts
the status of Brand Whitlock, Presi'

would of course remain American min

OF governors of the Provo Commercial
.cluD on the question of an indepen-
dent telephone system for Utah coun-
ty, which has been considered for
some time by citizens in the north
end Of Utah county.
Whereas, information having been
received by us to the effect that a
movement is being agitated to promote
and establish an Independent tele-
phone system In our section, and
Whereas, from past experience a
dual telephone system having been
proven to be an economic waste and
an extra and unnecessary tax upon
subscribers, and great inconyeni-
ence TO the public, therefore, be 1t
Resolved, That the board of COVER
nors of the Provo Commercial club
record in the minutes of this meet
ing held this 2Sth day of May, 1915,
its opposition to any contemplated
movement for a dual telephone sys-
TEN i'm Provo, and that any such move
ment at this time will not receive
the endorsement of this club.

The Telephone Situation

There oppears to be considerable
unrest among certain individuals as
to what is being done about installing
AN Independent telephone system for
the north end OF Utah county. That
all may know the progress that we
have made, this article Is written. II
is big undertaking and requires
careful consideration in order to avoid
mistakes; we are in communication
with large manufacturing companies
TO determine the probable cost; we
have our applications for franchises
prepared and have no doubt of getting
them, we visited the south end of the
county and have the assurance of
leading citizens that they favor the
move. We have been in communica-
ton with "a number of cities and com
muntics that have Independent sys-
tens and are SO well satisfied from
their replies that our system being so
well located can be made a success,
that we see no reason why we should
not go ahead. We need the support
OF all the people; large numbers are
refusing to renew their contracts
with the present telephone company
and are ordering their phones remov-
ed as fast as their contracts expire,
which proves that the people are with
us.
We have found by our investiga-
lions that we can install an up-to-
date system that will give us bet
ter local service, at a cheaper rate,
than we are now paying and at the
same time save to our people thou
sands of dollars year that are now
going away.
The Provo Commercial Club passed
resolution at a recent meeting OPP
posing dual system We are as
much opposed TO two systems as are
they. We expect to supplant the pre-
sent telephone system with an indie
pendent company formed from among
our own home people, providing the
public will give us the same loyal
support in. the future that has been
given TO us up to the present. II
Provo does not care to join with us,
We can make the system profitable
and successful without them, but be-
fore we are through Provo will be
only too glad to take her part and
Will be as ready to praise the move
as they now are to oppose.
Springville has already cut away
from the old company and are ar
ranging to install their own system.
Payson Is practically Isolated, as the
toll system IL in effect with them. II
they make call to Spanish Fork or
Benjamin by name instead of number,
It costs them 10 cents. We can ex-
pect the same after July LIST. In con-
cluslon we ask you to be patient, We
are doing all that can be done as fast
as we can.

Stationery Printed
For All.

Farmers and townspeople all over
the country are rapidly adopting tn,
new policy OF using writing paper and
envelopes with their names and ad.
dresses neatly printed thereon.
II has many advantages. II adds
dignity to correspondence and pre-
vents the numerous errors In the spell
ling OF names, insures correctness of
address and guarantees the prompt
return OF your letter In event of non
delivery, Also a prompt reply in case
you fail to sign your name.
IL Is no more expensive than the
buying OF stationery in small lots in
the old way, and adds distinctive
air of responsibility and refinement to
every home.
II Is a good thing, and has come TO
stay-and grow.
On Saturday, June Goth, we will
make a special price for all who wish
a small amount of stationery. We will
print you one hundred letter heads
and 100 envelopes with name and adj
dress on for $1OO.
Bring In your order and the cash

'ifer when the day comes.
