RATES BECOME.
APR. /

Effective April 1, the Michigan Bell
Telephone Company will institute the
zoning plan under which savings Of ap-
proximately a quarter of a million dol
lars per year are estimated for users of
telephone sevice between Detroit and
nearby points The announcement was
made Saturday by w. z. BARLEY, area
manager here for the company.
The plan was authorized by the
Michigan Public Utilities Commission
under an order Of January 10 Of this
year, following many months OF study
and conferences with the Michigan
Bell Company. 1t creates new De
:, oft district exchange, which includes
the present Detroit exchange and the
Suburbs served by the Center Line,
Fc rmingtOn, Birmingham, LivOnia,
ROseville, Royal Oak, Trenton, Wayne
and WyandOtte exchanges. Detroit,
and each telephone exchange serving
these suburbs, are designated as zones,
under the plan. The Detroit zone, be-
cause of its size, is further divided
into seven areas" each comprised OF
one or more central office districts. No
cnange is made in the rate for calls
made wholly within the Detroit zone,
which comprises the present Detroit
exchange.
There will be reductions, ranging
from TO IL cents, for a 5-minute eau
between suburb adjoining Detroit
and the Detroit zone areas that it ad-
Joins. Generally, there also will be a
reduction to , cents from the. present
1O-cent rate un calls between adjoining
suburbs that are included in the new
district exchange. Adjustments also
are made in rates for calls between
zones of the district exchange that do
not adjoin, charges graduating down
wards as the distance decreases. In a
very few cases. such Us between Wayne
and Crosse POinte, and between Rose
Vile and River ROugse, there Will De
slight increases. In those cases, now
ever. the volume Of calls is small.
Calls between zones of the new dis
trict exchange will be charged for IN
units of four or five cents each, de-
pendent upon the classification OF the
users service under the plan. The
number of units TO be charged for a
call will depend upon the zone or area
in which the calling telephone is lOcat-
ed the zone or area called, and the
Ienghth Of the conversation.
4 new class of service also Is offer
ed under the. plan, by means or wnlch
additional savings are possible. This
Will be known as extended area ser
vice whereby, for the payment Oh
slightly higher local monthly service
charge than that which applies 10 local
zone service, lower unit cost per eau
-four cents instead OF flve-wlil app!
70 interzOne calls. For instance, user
of extended area service will be charg-
ed only cents for an lnterzohe can
that otherwise would cost 10 cents,
while a 15-cent call would be reduceu
TO u cents.

Progress Made for
Metropolitan Park

Senate bill 115, creating a metropOli-
tan park district about Detroit, which
has been unanimously passed by the
Senate, provides that the five counties
of Wayne, Washtenaw, Livingston,
Oakland and Macomb may cooper ate
in providing parks, parkways, bathing
beaches and other recrealional facili-
ties for the area, as well as limited
access and connecting highways to
reach the park areas.
The bill itself creates no liabilities.
It merely permits the voters in these
counties, if they so desire, 20 create an
authority to carry out these purposes.
Unless approved by the voters at the
regular November election in 1910 the
bill will have no effect.
II the voters should approve, then
the boards Of supervisors OF these
counties would select representatives
Of the counties and the governor would
appoint two at large. These would
make up the commissioners to carry
cut the aims and objects Of the author
ity. These commissioners will receive
NO compensation.
Metropolitan park districts Of this
sort are becoming very common about
our large cities, notably Boston, New
\ ork, Cleveland and several other
Ohio cities, Milwaukee, etc. The need
for such a development about Detroit,
The fourth largest city In the country,
is perhaps the most urgent of any III
the country.
BY American standards Detroit has
only one-fifth of the needed park area.
Edward n. Hines when chairman OF
the Wayne County Road Commission,
recommended the purchase Of 1000
acres for parks in 1881. The need now
is for $4,000 acres This could be Sc
cured in Wayne county only at almost
prohibitive cost. But the land along the
Huron and Clinton river valleys is
next door TO Wayne county and Is
readily accessible TO all residents of
that county with its vast industrial
population which has an enormous
amount of leisure time and very made
Quate legitimate outlets for its use. The
lands and waters Of the Huron, Gin
ton and Detroit rivers and the lakes of
ST. Clair and Erie are marvelOusly
adapted for the needed recreatiOnal
facilities, and at very moderate cost.
Some of these facilities can more than
ray their way, notably the bathing
1t aches. Similar beaches elsewhere are
visited in summer by as many as 90
600 persons in single day. At nom
inal charge for each, the revenue
would be $1,OO0,0OO per year.
The bill gives the commission four
specific Observation-Disclosures promo
ton, planning and administration.
Most of the work of construction would
doubtless be done and paid for by ex-
listing State agencies in cooperation
with this organization. This area now
pays 40 per cent of the state tax, but
receives back only 30 per cent. The
state conservation and highway de-
partments may well return to this
area a larger share, giving us better
conditions without added expense.
