An Appeal To Save Paper

the ragman, these days, is paying good
prices for waste paper.
The shortage in newsprint, that has
run up the price so that when it can
be purchased at all it is at a rate per-
haps 400 per cent higher than few

smaller newspapers of the country
have been forced to suspend.

PHONE CO. ASKS FOR
LOCAL RATE RAISE
Hearing on Telephone Charges
Scheduled for June IA,
in Baltimore

Baltimore, MaIyland.--Witht to a.
ing of proposed rates for business and
residence service throughout the
State of Maryland. the Chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Company has
announced to the public the slight in.
crease which will be necessary to run
the service under existing costs.
Shortly after filing the petition for
an increase telephone officials were
notified by the Public Service Com.
mission that hearing would be start.
ed Monday, June II, to which inter
ested parties are invited The hear.
ing is simply a continuation of the
case which was started before the
Public Service Commission several
months ago and was discontinued
shortly before the death of former
Chairman Reifsnider.
A. E. Berry, President of the Chesa.
peake and Potomac Telephone Com.
pany, in presenting the petition for H.
crease at the Public Service Commits
sion last Monday made the statement:
The rates for telephone service
throughout Maryland can be justified
on several grounds. The return on the
invested capital is exceedingly low,
less than six per cent. being realized
throughout the State of Maryland If
these rates arc allowed What other
business. is conducted at so low a
profit? On the telephone investment
in the rural districts of Maryland we
are losing money and the rates which
we are asking from the people of
Maryland in the counties are simply
enough to guarantee a rate of less
than one and one-half cents on each
dollar-invested."

STICK TO THE POINT

The one matter before the
City Council meeting tonight OF
particular interest will be. OF
course, the garbage question, and
il is to be hoped that the pro
cedure will be business-like and
TO the point
The public is not interested
now in hearing about what any
particular member of the Council
NAV have done or said in the past
on this subject. The records will
show that. If necessary. Every
body will concedc that the entire
membership Of the Council acted
On good faith and solely with a
desire To save the taxpayers
money The ordinance was un-
doubtedly passed in that spirit
and no apologies or labored cX-
plantations as to its adoption or
the proceedings subsequent
thereto are at all necessary. The
one important fact now is that
experience has shown that the
ordinance in the present shape IS
a mistake. and tonight's meeting
is to take action toward correct
ing that mistake.
1t would he entirely to the
credit of the City Council if they
face the situation with frankness,
admit their connection with the
adoption OF the ordinance and
the wcll-known ground therefor,
namely, hoped for economy
discuss calmly and in good tenn
per the ways and means for rec
tifying the present inadequate ar
rangement. and then proceed di-
rectly to the adoption of what
ever supplemental procedure may
be agreed on.
There is no occasion whatever
