Playground Tabled
By Council
Absence of Alderman Robert
F. White Monday night delayed
action by the city council on
the proposed conversion of the
Fairmount Hill reservoir into
a tennis court and playground.
City Manager J. I. Franzen
recommended, after an investt
gation, that a fence 10 feet high
be installed around the edge of
the reservoir surface at a cost
of $4500. This would make pos
sible tennis courts and play
areas.
The reservoir is in Alderman
White's ward and for that rea
son it was tabled until his re
turn.
Some opposition from nearby
residents has been encountered,
fearing noise and traffic con
gestion.

when it was discovered that
there was a conflict between
the ward boundaries and the
precinct man as nrenared bv
Henry C. Mattson, county
clerk.
Under state statute, county
precincts take precedent over
city wards. So when it was dis
covered that boundary lines of
city wards, in some instances
cut throught precinct designa
tions, there was nothing for the
city to do but bow to the new
line up of the county. -
Mattson, charged with the
task of realigning many pre
cincts because they had reach
ed and exceeded the maximum
voting strength of 500, had
been working on the task that
confronted him for several
months.
Another angle to the situa
tion was the difficulty in find
ing adequate polling places.

Last year, Federal Excise Taxa paid by the average tdephont gubtriber in the Pacific West came to about fl-80 on each month' bill.
THE EXCISE TAX IN YOUR TELEPHONE BILL
We collect it from you for the Federal Government
1. Perhaps you'va wondered "What does the amount marked U. S.
Tax' on my telephone bill really mean?" Simply, it's the Federal
Excise Tax which is levied directly on your local and long distance
telephone calls. While this tax is included as a part of the total
amount of your telephone bill, it is actually a separate tax which
you pay on your telephone service. We merely collect it from our
customers for the government-and it is then set aside to be
passed along to the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
rJ. s f nH
L aii
S. Excise Taxea Ttuy, depending on the kind of
call you make. On a long distance call costing 2V or
more, for example, we have to add 25 in Federal
Excise Tax to the coat of the call. Local calls are
Excise Taxed at a rate of 15. It's a small amount
on each call but it's surprising how these taxes do
add op. ..to around $22 a year for the average tele
phone subscriber in the Pacific Wast.
S. Paying the cost of government is, of course, the re
sponsibility of all Americans and all American businesses. As
a company, Pacific Telephone pays and expects to pay
Ha full share of regular income and property taxes. But the
Federal Excise Tax is s separate tax which you pay. And
we make this report on it so that next time you receive your
telephone bill, you will perhaps pause to consider that tele
phone rates are actually lower than you may have thought.
On the job
for pennies a call
Despite sharply increased costs
for taxes, wages and materials,
we've been able to keep telephone
rates low. So low, in fact, that

messages for a few pennies a cal
