The Twin City representatives con-
tend that higher interstate rates on
, cream would increase the cost of but
ter manufacture in Minneapolis and

, in competition with other butter dis
tribution points.

by the state railroad and warehouse
commission. The roads published the
increased tariffs last winter and the
Minneapolis and st. Paul associations
protested, backed by indepe ndent
creamery concerns of the city and in
smaller towns throughout North Da-
kota. The Interstate Commerce Com
mission SUSPENDED the increased
tariffs and scheduled the Minneapolis
hearing two weeks ago.

DECISION ON
PHONE MATTER
Is IMPORTANT
Railroad Board Disc0urages
Free Interchange Of Tel.
ephOne Service

Free interchange Of telephone serv-
ice by two separate companies is
"dscouraged' in "A decision by the
state railroad board in the case Of
The Kathyrn Telephone company vs.
Peter Strinden of Hastings, decided
against the plaintiff. The question
came before the commission when the
Kathryn company asked permission to
disconncct certain Of its lines from
the Hastings exchange, which is ope-
rated by Strindcn. At the same time
the Kathryn company asked permits
sion to construct a direct telephone
line from Kathryn to Litchvillc via
Hastings in order to avoid q switch
ing charge of~$6O year. made by
Strindcn for service 1T the Hastings
exchange.
StrIndcn collected his $50 year
for switching service performed for
rural lines owned by the Kathryn
company connected with his exchange,
which covers only the village Of
Hastings. The original agreement
was that Strindcn was to receive %
cents month for each subscriber
connected to his exchange with IA
minimum Of S..
Refused To Pay
When the number of subscribers on
the lines was reduced to IL the
Kathryn company refused to continue
the IS minimum. Strinden refused to
accept less ard the case was brought
to the railroad board for settlement.
Hearing by the board developed
that subscribers to the kathry OK
change calling parties through the
Hastings exchange received free Scrv-
ice whereas subscribers on the Hast
ings exchange calling persons on the
Kathryn line were forced to pay a
toll fec. This rule applied only to
subscribers. Non subscribers wish
ing to talk from Kathryn to Hast
ings were required to pay toll rates
Ruling on this phase Of the con
trovcrsy. the board held this prac-
tice is clearly discriminatory and the
laws Of North Dakota prohibit dis
elimination in telephone rates and
service"
Commenting on the question Of fire,
interchange Of telephone service tn,
decision said: "A reasonable charge
for messages transmitted between ex.
changes would have tendency t.
cnrtaiI unimportant calls in favor
of those Of more Importance. The
practice of permitting subscribers t.
talk between various exchanges free
of charge should be discontinued
This is not a question of revenue I,
the companies but one Of satisfac
tory service to the user without dis
elimination"
Finds For Defendant
The board held that Strinden wa
entitled to the switching charges slip
ulated in his contract, denied tn
Kathryn company the right to con
struct a separate line from kathryl
to Litchville and ordered it to dis
continue the practice Of giving fire
service over its lines TO subscriber
while at the same time charging tol
to non-subscribers.
The decision is regarded by boar
members as of far-reaching impor,
ance since it determines the board
attitude toward numerous simila
situations existing in the state.
