A wrong num- ber called causes loss of time to you, to the party called and to the operator. Every instance means avoidable inconvenience to all concerned. It is not the loss of time to you alone or to the operator that concerns us most, but it is the annoy- ance to the party called. Your mistake cannot be 6 pes to him, and the Telephone Company is held responsible for your error. Consulting the current issue of the telephone di- rectory, instead of trusting to memory; giving your number clearly, and quickly correcting the operator if she misunderstands your call, will greatly in- crease the efficiency of the service.

C.—A bill providing for a general sales tax to pay the soldiers’ bonus has been introduced in the house by Representative Rossdale, republican, of New York. The meas- ure was referred to the house ways and means committee, The Rossdale bill would levy a tax of 1 per cent on all sales made by importers, manufacturers or producers to wholesalers, jobbers or distributors and a tax of 1 per cent on the next turnover to the-retailer. Sales direct to a retailer would be taxed 2 per cent. The revenue derived from the pro- posed tax would be used to finance the payment of three optional plans of a bonus to all world war veterans. The optional bonus features of the Rossdale bill follow: Each veteran who served a mini- mum of 90 days shall be paid $1 for each day. The secretary of the treasury shall issue 20-year bonds for the full amount of the cash bonus the veterans would be entitled to, the bonds to bear 4 per cent interest. The secretary of the treasury shall issue a paid up life insurance policy or, upon application of the veteran, the compensation to which he is en- titled shall be applied towards any insurance policy provided for by the veterans’ war risk insurance act. Commissioned officers would be barred from the bonus. NEEDY NATIONS MUST ACT U. 8. Attitude Concerning Assistance For Europe Stated. Washington, D.
