The Victory Loan.
County Agent

The size of the new loan, as def
hitely fixed in the Treasury Depart
ment announcement, is considerably
less than advance reports had pre-
pared the general public to expect.
It was in anticipation that the nota-
ton would be around $6,000,0 00, 900.
The conditions upon which subscrip
tons are invited are such as to rem
der it practically certain that the loan
will be fully absorbed-probably larg e.
iy oversubscribed- with the stipulated
time limit from the opening to the
closing of the subscription books.

offered in the two interest-bearing

Changes in Telephone Rates

Mr.. C. T. CIagett, Division Manager
of the Chesapeake AMI Potomac :: =
phone Company, gave out the followIn.
statement:
The Federal Government. ass Ne!
control of the property and business o.
this company on August l, 1918. Since
that time it has been operated under
Government supervision. The Act of
Congress under which the Government
took over the control provided that the
corporation should be paid a just com
pensation for the use of its property
and contract was made covering this
compensation. This contract provides
for the up-keep of the property;
continuance of the past high grade of
and dividends at the same rates as here
toiore. Therefore, the money now
collected for telephone service belongs
to the Government.
But, even under Government control,
there is no reason why the business
should be operated at a loss. To do so
means that deficit must be paid out
of taxation At the rates now being
charged, there is not enough revenue to
meet expenses, and it is Imperative
that the rates for local service be in
creased. The telephone business, just
like the Individual, has been suffering
from steadily increasing costs. Every
means possible has been applied to meet
this difference between revenue and ex-
penses by economies, but we have
reached the point now where the bust
ness must have increased revenue if it IS
to maintain satisfactory service and
not result in direct loss to the Gov
eminent.
Every effort has been made towards
making the burden of this increase
fall as lightly as possible upon the sub.
scriber and the community, and as
matter of fact, the increased cost to the
subscriber is insignificant in compari-
son with the increased cost of commo-
dities generally.
