Lincoln, July 1.-(Special)-
The State Railway commission re-
fused today to lower the exchange
rates of the Northwestern Bell Tele-

continuance of the 10 per cent sur
charge until next December 81, un-
less another order is issued.
The commission took no action on

1t was stated that an order on this
application would be issued some
time during July.
Emergency Action.

continuation of the surcharge was

discontinued June 80 at midnight.
In its order the commission stated
that while the Northwestern Bell
Telephone company had increased
rates cnly % per cent during the
war, private concerns had jumped
their rates $50 per cent.
Material used in the telephone bus
mess had declined slightly if any,

20 per cent and that of the Omaha
company 28 per cent, according to
