mTA Manager
 Answers Questions On Policies, Plans

There have been so many ques- lions asked of the Matanuska Telephone Association plans and policies, stated Robert D. Part ridge, manager, that to combine and clarify the answers, the fol- lowing has been prepared:
 Question: What is the reason for
 equity stock?
 Answer: The government (REA is willing to loan up to $650,000 for improved telephone service if the community will put up $40,O00 in the form of security. There fore, this is the reason for sell ing equity stock for a requested dial telephons system.
 O. Will this equity stock pay
 dividends?
 A. Not dividends in that sense of the word. Dividends will be paid to subscribers in time through reduced rates. Eventual ly, over period of years, the in itial $40 equity investment will have been returned to the mem bers
 c. Is the price of equity the same for town as for rural areas? "A. Yes.
 O. Why do I have 10 pay Sl0
 membership?
 A. The MTA is a cooperative. Ii is standard policy and practice that in order to receive of any na- ture, such as electricity or tele- phones, one must be a member of the cooperative serving them.
 O. If l move. will I get my
 money back?
 A. If you move out of the SyS- tenn, your membership fee of $10 is returnable The equity money IS also returnable, however, until such time as the Association req ches its required quota of $40,- 900, it is not returnable. To date, only one half of the $40,000 quota has been reached.
 O. How much more does an ex-
 tension cost?
 A. An equity stock is not re- quired for an extension however, there will be a small installation charge and small monthly rental rate comparable to the present rate.
 O. Is ii true that after cer- tain lime or certain amount of money has been paid in on equity. if will not be necessary 10 pay $40 equity for phone installations? A. This is absolutely not true. To begin with, no one will receive service when the new dial system is placed in operation unless both the membership and equity monies are paid in full. This sys- tenn has been designed for mem
