STATE Phone TOLLS
TO BE UNCHANGED
Calls to Rural Delaware to
be Same on Airline
Basis
NEW SCHEDULE IN
EFFECT AT MIDNIGHT

There will be very little change in
telephone toll-rates between Whining
ton and nearby points, when the. new
rates ordered by the postmaster-ge
eral VIII be put into effect at midnight
tonight by the Diamond State Tele-
phone Company.
The rate will be changed for calls
between Wilmington and Chester, the
present 10 cent toll-rate becoming 10
cents for five minutes conversation.
There are no changes IN rates between
Wilmington and principal towns Of the
State.
By order OF the general
toll-rates for telephones must now be
charged by the air mile, the straight
distance between two places, Instead OF
by the actual distance trRyersed by the
telephone wires between two places.
The new rate fixes a charge Of cents
for six miles for the FIRST "a miles, and
after that distance Is reached 5 cents
for each additional eight miles.
There will be two changes affecting
Delaware between Baltimore and Dover,
where the charge for a three-mlnute
conversation Is reduced from 30 cents
TO IS cents; and between Baltimore and
Georgetown, where there is a reduction
from 55 cents to IS cents. This reduc-
tion is due to the charge ON the air
distance going straight over Chesa-
peake Bay instead Of the longer dis
tsHce around the bay.
The following are rates between, VII
mlngton and nearby points, which will
remain unchanged under the new sys-
tenn:
Philadelphia, % cents; New Castle, )
cents; Niiddletown. 20 cents; Smyrna,
70 cents: Dover, 30 cents; Milford. 40
cents; Harrington, i5 cents; George
town, 55 cents: :; Lewes. IS cents; Selby-
VILE. 65 cents; Bridgeville, 80 cents;
