PHONE REGULATIONS
 NOT DETRIMENTAL

III dDouI two SeCOnuS the DOaTu Ol directors of the Chamber of Com merce Friday decided the charges that the Mountain States Telephone & Telegraph Company was endeavor- ing to secure arbitrary right to raise rates without supervision of the cor poration commission, and to secure other drastic powers, were uncalled for, and voted to so inform the War ren Chamber of Commerce of it's ac- ton.
 The decision was arrived at after the rules and regulation submitted by the company to the corporation com mission, read to them by H. D. Me Vey, special representative of the Mountain States Telephone & Tele- graph Company, of Fl Paso, who ap- peared before the directors at their request after the directors had re- ceived communication from the Warren chamber seeking co-opera- tion in resisting the alleged powers.
 Further, the directors told Mir. Mo Vey they were unable to see any reas- on for objecting to the regulations, which were presented in individual copies to each of the directors for checking as they were explained. In all but one rule-that which fixed the charge for re-installiation of tele- phone service after service had been discontinued for non-payment-- the rules and regulations were the same as those approved in previous years by the corporation commission.
 This section, MT. McVey said, was made necessary by ranch subscribers. To get their rental required almost the cost of the rent and to take out the telephone service was additional cost. The company was compelled to re-install such service and it desired the right to penalize such delinquent subscribers. In Arizona, between $5,000 and $8,000 was carried as an overhead by such delinquent sub scribers. In not one county was the net profit meeting the dividend max imum permitted by the state.
 "All we want is for the subscrib- CTS to pay for the service and to cut down the cost which the company is bearing instead of asking a higher rate, which would place the burden upon you who pay your bills," urged MT. McVey.
 This penalty is fixed at one dollar and the advanced subscription for the period of the contract.
 The action of the Chamber of Com merce of Warren and elsewhere was the result, apparently, of misunder- standing at the time the matter came before the corporation commission Immediately the hearing was suspend ed at the request of the company, un- til the matter is thoroughly under stood by the communities involved.
 On January 2S the corporation will hear the application of the com pany for permission to adopt the rules and regulations.

Renewal of Interest in Work.

Renewal of Interest in Work.
 As predicted, the New Year has found greater number of workers enlisted in Red Cross work. The room on Tuesday last was filled with workers eager to do their bit. Every sewing machine was taken, necessi- tating the supplying of several new ones for the work next week. The tables also are inadequate for the number willing to work, so new ones will be placed soon.
 The work went forward with rush this week. A new shipment of sur gical gauge was sent out and love- ly lot of knitted goods was brought in. The invoice for a new shipment of yarn has been received, so there will be plenty for those who are con- tinuing the knitted things.
 A boy--a patriot of the seventh grade-turned in a knitted wash cloth, so all the glory does not center about the fair girls. The comfort bag com mittee has been transferred to the table putting out patients clothing. Here we interviewed the members and found them quite enthusiastic over their new work, though confronted by problems of sleeves and gussets and gores, yet bravely they struggled on for they saw in all these tribulations but more glory in the finished gar ment.
 An interesting letter comes from Mrs. Buckbee, claiming 100e6 mem- bership for the Red Cross in Kayenta. Her just pride in such claim can be readily imagined. In this letter she also asks for needles and yarn that the work may be started immediately. This sounds the right note surely.
 While no word has as yet been re- ceived concerning our standing in a comparative manner with other chap ters of it's size, yet it is quite worthy of note that the California papers have seen fit to mention the splendid work accomplished by the Flagstaff chapter. This helps in no little meas ure to boost the work along.
 Another letter from Fort Baker ex- presses the thanks of one of the boys: Red Cross Committee.
 Dear Friends:
 Although the Christmas boxes that were sent by the Red Gross of Flag staff did not reach the boys lover there", they were heartily appreciat- ed by the boys of this post. We wish to thank you for your generosity and thoughtfulness.
 We hope the coming year will be filled with prosperity and success.
 Respectfully,

would loan their automobiles for Red
Cross work. The Advertiser has been
requested to pass this appeal on and
to state that the chapter is being put
to large expense for Automobile hire
when so many people have cars that
they could loan or drive themselves
from time to time. The secretary of
names to the Home Relief Department
to make many calls in tho country
and unless cars are loaned for the
purpose the expense will greatly bur
den the finances of the chapter. Per-
sons who will volunteer their cars or
services are requested to send their
names to the Hon Relief Department
In the Chamber of Commerce rooms.
Unless the request is complied with
personal requests will be made OF
