TELEPHONE RATES REDUCED TONIGHT
L over Long Distance Charges Effective After
 p. m Announced

Lower long distance telephone rates become effective tonight, 1t was announced today by J. D. vietch general commercial manager of the Southern New England Telephone company. Starting this evening, re- duced rates will apply every night after p. m. on all person-to-per- son calls which cost more than 50 cents during the day. Beginning Sunday, the reduced night" rates on both person. -to-pcrson and sta- ti6n-to-station calls will apply all day Sunday, the discount period running continuously from ?. m. Saturday until 4:30 8. m. Monday. These changes will be put into ef- feet throughout. the country by all associated companies of the Bell telephone system.
 MT. Veitch stated that the new night and Sunday rates on person. to-person calls, which are calls made to Q particular person, arc from 8 to 30 per cent lower than the regular person -to-person weekday rate. On tation-to-station calls, when the person calling will speak with anyone who answers; the'night and Sunday reductions apply where the weekday rate is more than 36 cents. These reductions permit sav- ings up to 10 per cent on station. to. station calls to the more distant points.
 "These are the most recent of 8 series of reductions in long distance rates which have been made since 1926 to make the service more and more convenient and economical to telephone users." MT. veitch said. "Wc feel particularly that lower rates all day Sunday will greatly in- crease the usefulness of the tele- phone to families wishing to make week k-end calls to out of-town friends and relatives. Also, for bus mess men, the Sunday rates will provide opportunities to clear up odd items of business left unfinished during the week, and also to make appointments and reservations for the week ahead"
