New Telephone FI RET CS | % 3 e R CCT ts 2 ¥ Wik E: J E] (Announced Dec. 13, 1918, by Postmaster General, Washington, D. C.) 0 New schedules of rates for telephone toll calls (to points outside the local service area) under which all toll calls throughout the United Stats are placed on a uniform basis, became effective 12:01 a. m., January 21, 1919. Under these new schedules the "station to station" rate is the base rate upon which all rates for the various classes of service offered, are computed. ~ This rate is determined by the air line distance between toll points and is computed, for the initial period, on the basis of 5¢ for each 6 miles up to 24 miles and 5¢ for each 8 miles beyond that distance. For toll calls where the calling party does not specify a particular person to be reached at the called telephone, "station to station" rates are charged. For toll calls where the calling party does not specify a particular person to be reached at the called telephone and the connection is established and > conversation held with that person "person to person" rates. are charged. As this service requires a greater amount of operating effort, the rate for such calls is about one-fourth greater than the "station to station" rate. The minimum "person to person" rate is 20c. Toll calls involving an appointment to talk at a specified time, or involving the use of messenger service to secure attendance of a designated person at a public telephone at a distant point may be made at rates usually about one-half greater than the "station to station" rate, plus the cost of messenger service. — The minimum rate for such call is 25c. For all toll calls other than those made on the "station to station" basis, where connection is established but the conversation is not held because the calling or called party is not present or will not talk, a "report charge" is made, equivalent to about one-fourth of the station to station" rate. The minimum "report charge" is 10¢c; maximum $2.00. _ No "report charge" is made if the call is completed before midnight of the day it is placed. Night rates, applying only to calls made on a "station to station" basis, are quoted between 8:30 p. m. and 4:80 a. m. — The rate between 8:80 p. m. and 12 midnight is about one-half the "station to station" day rate, and between 12 midnight and 4:30 a. m. about one-fourth the "station to station" day rate. The minimum night rate is 25¢. "Station to station" calls must be made as far as possible by giving the telephone number of the called telephone. — When the number is not known and telephone directory information is not available the number should be ob-: tained from "Information," or if the called telephone is at a distant point, the name and address of the called subscriber should be given to the Toll Operator, stating that it is a "station to station" call, The "station to station" rates are substantially lower than the "person to person" rates. — In order that patrons may effect the greatest economy in their charges for toll service, and also maximum speed of connections, they are urged to study their toll service, requirements and to make the widest possible use of "station t. station" calls. y f ollo) 3 \ (Z0 °0, > P A jH 1, pile y) 30 xe : 0, ° BP Byori o : (e) | ole) 0 | 7 1. b 6
