Uniform System of Collecting
To Be Adopted June LIST

for the convenience Of those wh0
might prefer to pay at. office rather
than to remit by mail. The sub.
scriber would have plenty of time
to check up his toll calls and pay at
his convenience any time during the
month. If it is not paid during the
month, the next bill mailed. out
will carry the arrears on it. This
second bill, carrying arrears, would
be expected to be paid in full not
later than the 10th of the month
This maximum limit will be 40 days
from the date of the first bill: and
if payment in full is not received BY
the expiration of this time the sub.
scriber will be told by the operator
when he calls central that his 'tserv.
ice is suspended" Ordinarily toN
message accounts will be carried the
same as local service, as above ex.
planned; but under certain circums
stances it will be necessary to col
lect toll messages on demand.
The foregoing plan of COLLECTING
has been found best by those using
it, and is in general use throughout
the whole country. It is approved
by the North Carolina Corporation
Commission and the Interstate Cor.
poration Commission.
We wish to make the special res
quest that your account be settled In
full during this month (May).
Trusting to receive your hearty
cooperation, we wish to remain.
Yours, very truly, y

WashingtOn.-SeVen men formed a

defense.
This commission, he added, was
designed by law to act purely in an
advisory capacity to the council, COM

the president, he asserted, made them
the real executives.
After Mr. Graham had read to the
investigating committee a digest de-

food control and press censorship had
been discussed by the commission
several weeks before the war was de-
clared, Representative Reavis, Repub-

Later in the recital of the digest,
Mr.. Graham said that the censure OF
the council and commission, uttered in
senate and house, led Mr.. Coffin to
urge that ga definite channel of con-

council and congress. "In other
words," commented the chairman,
Congress ought to be educated"

Il has been evident for some time
ehAt our present methods Of col
lecting were both inadequate and
unsatisfactory. In the past we have
employed a collector, but large
number OF our subscribers prefer to
pay at our office and regularly do
30. A great many, when interrupted
by the collector calling, will tell him
10 leave his bill-that they prefer
to send check by mail. A consid-
cradle number make special re-
quest of us to mail their bills to them
at the first of the month, which we
do. Others pay the collector on his
monthly rounds. The collector is
being detained now much more than
previously on account of the in
creased number Of toll messages to
identify, so it is impossible for him
to complete his rounds. The Direc-
tors of the North State Telephone
Co., at a recent meeting, adopted a
uniform system of collecting, the
same as is in general use by practi-
ca11y all telephone companies and
public utilities.
Under the new plan, beginning
June first, we will mail every sub
Scriber his bill on the first of the
month, for the current months

LEAGUES suNoER RELATIONS
Major and Minor Baseball Organiza.
tIcns Break COMPACT.

New York, Jan. 1.-THE major and
minor baseball leagues, parties TO the
National agreement, the foundation of
the professional end OF the national
sport, broke relations after q stormy
meeting here tonight
The magma charta of organized
baseball was, figuratiyely speaking,
torn TO pieces and the two great
combinations will in the future be
bound together by an elastic agree.
ment which will permit them to oper.
alive with comparative independence.
No prediction was made as to
what effect tonlghts proceedings
will have on the professional game
and the players, but leaders OF both
leagues professed to be highly salts.
fed with the sensational turn az
fairs had taken when temporary ar.
rangements were completed shortly
before midnight,
Under the tentative agreement
which was entered into tonight the
major and minor leagues are to re.
spect the contractural TERRITORIAL and
reservation rights of each other, with
the proyiso that no minor league club
shall claim the right to more players
at any time than the maximum roster
allowed to clubs in the major leagues.
During the playing season this would
equal 81 players.
The draft, optional and reservation
agreements OF the national agreement
entered into in 1903. are things Of the
past, and the only way in which the
major league club can obtain players
from the minors VIII be by direct pur-
chase.

will be sent from France 10 Poland 10
operate against the BoIshevist forces
which are endangering the stability
of the government sought TO be main /
tanned by the Polish National Com
mlttee. That no American or British
troops now in service will be sent TO
Poland seems to be definitely deter
mined. but there is a likelihood that
the British at least may call for vol
unteers to form separate force
which would be used to augment the
Polish commands.
Representatives of the United States
continue to deny statements published
HI the Paris newspapers and repeated
in the face OF authoritative contradic.
ton that President Wilson has agreed
that American troops should go to
Poland with the Polish divisions men,
toned. Nothing Is clearer than that
the policy of both the American and
British governments, in their lighting
capacity, is not to use any troops

Germany now that Germany has sur
rendered The American and British
