NEW EXCHANGE TELEPHONE RATES
EFFECTIVE MAY l, 1919

new schedule of telephone exchange rates be-
came effective in Paris May by direction Of the OPP
Grating Board of the United States Telegraph and
Telephone Administration, acting under the order
of the Postmaster General of the United States.
AS you know, all Of the lines and property of this
company in the possession, control and are be-
ing operated by the United States Government I'M
der the direction of the Postmaster General of the
United States.
The new rates are necessary in order that addlt-
onal revenue may be secured by the government to
meet the increased operating expenses. The causes
which make greater telephone revenue necessary
are due to the conditions and the new price lev
els introduced by the war and are entirely beyond
the control of the United Telegraph and Tel
ephone Administration or of the Telephone Com
pany
More than two years ago the Company foresaW
that the telephone system would be operated at
loss unless the rates could be adjusted to meet the
increasing costs of all elements entering into the pro-
duction of service. A similar rate adjustment would
have been unavoidable under private control and the
new rate schedule is practically the same we would
have sought in 1918 if the government had not ia
ken possession of our property
AS stated by the Postmaster General the owners
of the telephone system do not benefit in any way
from rate changes Practically all of the increased
operating expenses which require this additional
revenue are due to increased wages paid to employ
es to enable them to meet the conditions of life
in the present day.
1t is neither practicable nor desirable to reduce
wages, and SO far wages are concerned believe
that portion of the increased operating expenses to
be permanent.
The new rate schedule is fair and reasonable and
the percentage of increased revenue which it will
produce is much lower than the increased cost of
other services and commodities of similar charac-
ter. q
80 nnplete detailed information about the new
may be obtained at the managers office We
are making every effort to change our records
promptly and your courteous consideration will be
appreciated The new rate for your service shown
on your statement for May !.

CATECH|sM GIVES
CLEARER IDEA Of
THE VICTORY LOAN
WHY 1T is NECESSARY AND HOW
IT WILL BE FLoATED SET
FORTH.
LAST OF LIBERTY ISSUES
Banks Cannot Handle II Alone, and
Everybody Must Lend Helping
Hand.

Maybe the following catechism win
help to set you right on some OF the
questions surrounding the Fifth, the
Victory Loan, the last of the historic
Liberty Bond Issues.
Q. Is this to be the last Of the Lip
erty Loans?
A. Yes; on the authority of no les.
a person than the Secretary of the
Treasury, Carter Glass, WHO has made
that announcement.
@. Is there a possibility that the
Governments mind may be changed
and that the Loan will not he f!oated,
as announced?
A. There is no such possibility.
Congress has authorized The Loan, it
has been formally announced and it
will be offered to the people of the
United States and all others WAC visa
to buy it.
@. The war is over. peace is being
made; what is the Sc CT aLo,h~r
Loan for several billion dollars?
+
Loan in time Of war. Tho process
from the Fourth Ic.n have brap uE1!
up in the extraordinary expenditures
that accompany denlobIiiAstttn The
Government must haze bsi'iCne mola
in order to maintain 0ar overseas
forces, take care ii tbs txrensc3 Of
rehabilitation, bling To su!iic.s
home and carry out the ralo,cArs Ie
construction plans.
After War Expenses.
@. If the United States has very
little money in its treasury ana now
needs loan, how are We paying for
these after-the-war expenses?
A. This is being done for the most
part with money t., was borrowed
from the banks at the rate Of $500 ,000..
600 every two weeks, We have beer,
issuing to the banks what were called
short-term anticipation certificates III
return for the money, and these must
be taken up and paid off A goodly
part of the Victor Loan will be used
in paying up this short-term indebt-
edness.
@. Well, if the banks are willing tc
advance the money why not lei them
continue to do SO?
A. For the cry good reason that
in order to continue to extend credit
to the businesses OF the country, both
big and little, the banks must gel
back this money when ii falls due,
other wise credits would freeze up in
this country and serious situation
would be here, The money they are
lending amounts to 30 per cent OF
their entire resources. You can read.
| lily see that the banks resources, all
of them, would soon be exhausted at
the present rate.
@. Is the Government going to try
to get us to take this loan on a pat
riotic or a commercial basis?
A. Why not on both? There ought
to be, and there is, patriotism enough
in America TO make one bite" of the
| Fifth Liberty Loan. Secretary of the
Treasury Glass says the patriotism OF
the Americans can be relied upon to
send the Victory Loan" over the top
with rush However, it is a particu-
larly attractive loan as an investment
1t ought to be eagerly taken up on
that very basis alone, to say nothing
of the patriotism that demands that
1t be taken.
