GOVERNMENT TO CUT THE COST
OF CONVERSATION OVER
THE WIRES
TALK CHEAPER AT NIGHT
New Yorker May Call Up San Francisco

is SIG.

y Sweeping reductions in lOng-distanc
and toll telephone rates by the adoption
% OF basic charge of Ia mill mile
( airline mileage and half the day rate
for night service up to midnight anc
one-fourth the day rate after that hour
have been announced by Postmaster
General Burleson. They become effec
? tive next January 81.
d The new rates were RECOMMENDED in
the first report of the committee on
rate Standardization and Mr.. Burleson s
statment said their effect is to equalize
the toll and long distance charges over
1.-THE country, removing disparities and
preferences and providing a scientific
basis for further reductions contem-
plated as ratification of the telephone
and telegraph wires proceeds.
t, "a night service rate said the
statement, (Which is one-half the day
rate, is established between $3.50 and
10 p. m. Between midnight and 4:30
a. m. the night rate is one-fourth the
day rate. These are greater reductions
in night rates than have ever been
made in any country, and doubtless win
'be extensively used especially for social
and family purposes A person may
talk from San Francisco to New York
for about 81, whereas the day rate is
approximately $40.
IA station to station service is es-
tablished such as now exists is the
balance of the world, that is, when
connection is established with man s

verse is provided and the station to

plies and is payable whetheh the part
cular person desired responds or not.
This rate up to twenty-four miles is at
the rate is ) cents for six miles and
for great distances five cents FOR each
eight miles, or about Ga mills mile !
The distance is computed by airline |
methods and not by pole line or public (
highways. he air line distances are
commonly about 100 miles when the 9th
ers would run $50 miles. 1t is stated bv |
the committee that more than sixty
varieties of toll rates have existed in
the United States up to the present
time. The effect of this uniform or
basic rate in the station to station ser
vice is to reduce or not affect about 20
percent of the rates though necessarily
lightly raising about 80 percen. in the
process of Standardization.
50 In many large sections of the coun-l
ny the smallest toll rate has not been
ess than is cents. Under the new
cheme for short distance the rates are

Miners Short Course.

Tn miners short course opens Janq-
ary 6 and continues six weeks
The course includes the study OF ore
forming minerals and the manner OF
their occurrence, special attention being
given to the less common minerals, such
as tungsten, manganese, molybdenum'
quicksilver and the like which have been
in great demand during the war. This
work will be supplemented by blowpipe
and other simple tests for the common ais
well as the uncommon metals.
The course also includes a laboratory
training necessarily brief, Of course, in
fire-assaying for gold and silver and in
some of the simpler wet methods fol
determining few of the more common
elements. Following this, experimental
work in testing ores by the different
methods of treatment is carried on in
the Idaho mining laboratories which
are everywhere recognized as second to
none in the west.
One of the most generally appreciated
features of the course is a series of lee
lures covering in a general way the
field of mining and ore treatment with
a brief discussion of mining law. Where
a sufficient number of persons with nee
essary preparation desire course in
simpler mine surveying, such course
win be arranged.
