There was a time, you know, when,
In August, horsea frothed At the
mouth, dogs went mad and little
boys were warned to stay away from
the swimming hole with the green

Because sanitary conditions and
heat were at their worst then, the

CUTS RATES FOR
HAND SET USERS
S. D. Wise, vice-president and gen
eral manager of the Pacific Telephone
and Telegraph company In Oregon,
announced today that:
"In line with our established policy
of reducing rates for hand seta as
rapidly aa conditions permit, our
company has advised the public util
ities commissioner of Oregon -that, In
accordance with discussions held with
him, we would place In effect on and
after October 1 a hand act rate of
10 cents per month, with provision
that the charge would be eliminated
after the consumer has had continu
ous service for 13 months. The IB
cent charge for customers who have
had continuous service for 12 months
or more prior to the date of this
change will be entirely eliminated.
"This la a further reduction In the
hand set rate since the rate was re
duced August 21, 1936, from 25 cents
to 15 cents per month with provision
that the charge was eliminated after
the 'Customer had had this service
for a period of 18 months or more.
"This reduction will be a substan
tial saving to the large number, of
our customers who havo the hand set
instruments. While we look forward
to the ultimate elimination of this
charge, that atep must be viewed In
the light of the pronounced effect
upon plant changes involving In
creased Investment and Increased op
erating coats, as well aa on effect of
necessary rate level considerations.
We believe, however, that It is In the
public Interest- to lower the charge
at this time and we hope that the
attractiveness of the new rate will
promote a still larger uso of the
present hand set. 'Our operating ex
penses Inclusive of taxes have been
rising rapidly throughout the year,
due largely to Increased wages and
Increased taxes, and in accordance
with our announced policy of paying
Just and fair wages and to meet these
rising expenses, we hope our custom
ers will find our rates so attractive
and our service so ever increitalng In
value that telephone usage will be
such that our revenues will, at all
times, make It possible for us to
meet our full responsibilities to -the
public we serve, our employes and
those who have put their money In
our business.
"In accordance with our announced
policy, we have been glad to par
ticipate In conferences with the com
misson rather than formal proced
ures, since we believe the conference
method, conducted In a spirit of fair
ness, affords an opportunity to de
velop all pertinent facta and In the
long run la a much more satisfac
tory basis for working out matters
In the public Interest than prolonged,
highly technical and controversial
formal hearings."

PASADENA, Cal.(TJP Dr. Rob
ert. Ml 111 Kan and Dr, H. Victor Neher
of the California Institute of Tech
nology have completed plans for a
further study of the eosmlo rays In
the middle west and Canada.
This will be added to the data
obtained last year wjien 11.-. electro
scopes were set up In India.".; -
Where In- -the 'pat1' stratosphere
data on, the cosmic rays were gath
ered by airplanes reaching an altitude
of only 20,000 feet, It Is expected that
the new experiments will reach Into
the regions 00,000 feet above the
earth.
The instruments for registering de
sired data about the cosmic ray at
high altitudes will be sent up by
small balloons provided with a me
chanism' that causes them to burst
after three hours. 'During this time
all of the necessary data will have
been mechanically registered by spe
cial instruments which are attached
to parachutes so as to descend safely
to earth, K- .
The principal problem is to get the
Instruments returnee! to the '.Institute
where the data can be. compiled and
compared. For this purpose each set
of Instruments wll.-beaiva tag offer
ing a $5 reward If It- Is returned.
Prom Omnoa five electroscopes will
be headed for the higher-altitudes,
each borne aloft by a tandem of five
balloons. In Nebraska the population
Is sufficiently dense. It 'Is believed.
to Insure all of the Instruments being
sent back to the institute when they
come down. . . ... ....
In Canada the experiments will be
made from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan,
where another five balloons will be
sent aloft. To date, the only; 'Infor
mation available on .cosmic rays In
Canada Is at a height of 21.000 feet.
This time it is hoped, to attlUn. at
