Charge for Service in

Lincoln, Oct. 2o.-(Special. 1.-The
Nebraska Telephone company has
been granted an increase in rates
by the Nebraska State Railway COM
mission while will give the company
an increase in revenue of $425,OOO
per annum. The increase is on an
emergency and for period of six
months.
The fact that Postmaster General
Burle ION and a committee appoint
ed for that purpose is agitating and
will probably put into effect sys-
tenn of jephone rates all over the
United States is one reason fol- the
raise.
The other reason is that because
of the high wages paid employees OF
the railroads, the roads have been
drawing employees from the tele-
phone companies until the matter,
it is said has simply become prop
osition of raising rates to procure
sufficient funds to pay employees to
keep them from going to the rail-
roads.
Under the raise $350,00O of the
amount will go for increases in
wages, 100000 for increase in taxes
and $4,000 for increase in mate
rails. Beginning November /, there
will be a rs per cent increase in
tolls and on December 10 per
cent increase in exchange rates.
