Once upon a time there was a Fair
Jane who managed to snare two young
men at the Same Time, which is con

Competition is nowadays And one of
these birds was the Son of his Father,
and that was all he did for a living.
Father had a Nickel for every drop of
water in Lack Michigan, and Son en
joyed an Allowance that sounded like
tne annual Income of the Standard O'l
Company And son's name was Elmer.
Now the other part of this here

worked hard every day at the glue fac

TELEPHONE RATES ON WARTIME
BASIS ATTACKED AT REHEARING
SALEM, Or., July 20 Charges,
made by Attorney TomlinSon that
present telephone rates are b"?ed in
part on a standard contract adopted
by ex-Poi-tmaster-General Burlesnn
during war times and not on the actu
al contract existing between the P;i
cific Telephone & Telegraph company
and the American Telephone C. Tele
grapp company, the parent concern,
opened up an argument n which mem
bers of the commission as well as
counsel for the telephone company
participated.
Say Contract Not Signed
After lengthy argument, it was de
veloped that the standard war con
tract had never been signed by offi
cials of the Pacific Telephone com
pany, because, according tc Attorney
Shaw, the original contract entered
into many years ago, with amend
ments made later, had peculiar advan
tages to the local company.
Phone Practices Questioned
It was developed also that the con
tract under which the parent company
and the Pacific company arc now o;i
crating was not in the reeorlti of th')
commission in . previous cases, al
though attorneys for the company
maintained that they had explained
xhe situation fully to the cevrmission
regarding these contracts at hearings
in the past.
The standard contract which the
government adopted during the war.
Attorney Shaw explained, had not
been signed by officials of the Pa
cific companv, but when the holdings
of "the telephone company returned to
private ownership, the Pacific com
pany reverted to its old contract.
