A discount of soc will be allowed if
paid on or before the 18th of the month.
The reason given by the telephone
company for higher rates is the ad-
vanced cost of labor and materials.
Telephone officials say that because
Of the increased cost of operation, the
revenue under the rates the company
has charged have been insufficient to
meet it's financial requirements.
On account Of the doubt as to what
authorization was necessary for changes
in telephone rates, the company has not
previously made increases in it's rates.
However, a recent decision of the
United States Supreme Court determin.
ed the authority for rate changes, and
a new schedule of rates has been made
effective accordingly.
Officials of the com pany say if salts.
factory telephone service is to be furn'
ished increased revenue is necessary
and they feel that the public will re-
alize the justification of their action in
the present situation.-Adv.
