Yours for beauty and helazlth, dupe the service. In America we pay double the wages for the same kind of telephone work that is paid in European countries. Nearly all kinds of telephone material costs a great deal more here than it does abread. American Rates Lower et For distances under fifty miles, within which four-fifths of all long distance calls are made, American telephone rates for the same service are much lower than in European countries. For longer distances and for messages between countries, European telephone rates are from three to four times as high as our rates for the same distance in this country. The long distance telephone service in Europe is generally very poor. The farthest a toll call can be made abroad - is scarcely more than the distance across one of our states.
