PACIFIC PHONE
RATE REDUCTION
SOUGHT BY FCC
Would Make Company Es
tablish Parity With Other
Parts of A. T. and T.
Washington, Aug. IS. oD
The federal communications
commission proposed today to
require the Pacific Telephone
and Telegraph company and its
subsidiaries to establish inter
state rates in the territory serv
ed by it on a parity with liter
state rates in other parts of the
American Telephone and Tele
graph system.
The commission said the so
called "interstate Pacific'' scale
of rates were "unjust, unrea
sonable and discriminatory."
The commission described
"interstate Pacific" business as
traffic both originating and ter
minating in Pacific territory. It
added that the "interstate Pa
cific" tolls are the same as the
"other interstate" schedules for
distances up to 42 miles, but
are generally higher for greater
distances.
20 Days for Answer.
The company has 20 days in
which to file exception to the
commission's propose report
and to request oral argument
on it.
The commission said opera
tions of the Pacific system, as a
whole, have been very profit
able, with net earnings during
the last IS years ranging from
S.44 per cent to 7.83 per eent
of the average net book cost of
telephone plant and equipment.
It added that "the record indi
cates that future eirnings will
produce a higher rate of return
than the average for those IS
years."
Territory served embraces
Washington, Oregon, California,
Nevada and that pn-t of Idaho
generally north of the Salmon
river.

IN STATE ACTION
Testimony in the suit of the
State Game Commission against
the Beaver-Portland Cement
company, for an injunction
against the recently constructed
wing dam In Rogue River near
Gold Hill was completed late
yesterday. The state was grant
ed 20 days in which to file
briefs, and the defense the same
period.
The state contends the wing
dam, constructed to furnish wa
ter for the pivined new power
plant, reduces the flow of the
river to 125 second feet, which
it is held, is insufficient water
for the steady migration of fish.
Expert testimony contended the
dam would cause the fish to
congregate in the tail-race. In
stead of going upstream to
spawning water, resulting in
fish life loss.
W. H. Muirhead, general
manager of the cement com
pany, testified a willingness on
the part of his company to fol
low suggestions of the fish com
mission to remedy conditions
they opposed.
Other witnesses called by the
defense yesterday were E. C.
Gillenwater, Harry Newnham,
H. D. Cameron, P. W. Allen,
and J. R. Ritter, who testified
as to the state of the water,
and its effects on fish life.
It's only 132 days to Christ
mas and today Rogue River na
tional forest headquarters called
for bids on 2.000 Shasta fir or
silver tip yule trees.
The bids will be opened at the
forest service office here Sep
tember 16. No less than six cents
a lineal foot will be accepted.
The trees are growing near the
I L,oage roie guard station in tne
Butte Falls district.

BY BEE HUNTERS
Forest fires have been blamed
on quail hunters, pheasant hunt
ers, deer hunters, elk hunters,
bear hunters, cougar hunters,
bobcat hunters and coyote hunt
ers. And today Rogue River na
tional forest headquarters chalk
ed up a fire against a bee hunter.
Yes, sir. Protective Assistant
Albert Young reported that a
fire in 'brush and timber two
miles east of Ruch yesterday
afternoon was started by a man
or men hunting for a bee tree
and ita honey. And Mr. Young is
a woodsman of such extensive
experience that be can tell these
things.
When a bee hunter doesn't
know where the bee tree is, this
is how Mr. Young says he
works: He lights a pine cone
and makes a lot of smoke. The
smoke attracts the bees from

their honey trees no matter how
far away it U. The hunter pro
ceeds in the direction from
which the bees came. After a
while he lights another cone and
again the bees come swarming
to the smoke. This process is
repeated until, unwittingly, the
bees reveal where their honey
tree is. Then the hunters show
their appreciation of the bees'
obliging conduct by robbing
them of their honey.
Well, to make a short story a
little longer, the bee hunter at
some stage of the hunt yesterday
dropped a burning cone and
failed to put it out. That's what
Mr. Young says.
The Star ranger station sent
a crew to the fire but it had
already been put out by Robert
Hughes. Glenn Smith and
Mathew Ray, farmers of the
neighborhood. The blaze cov
ered one-tenth acre.
