GIVES FIRST FUND to be generally | s TO LEAGUE EXPENSES Pays $1,954 Toward Opium Confer- ence—Contributes on Same Basis as Great Britain. By the Associated Press February 5.—The Ameri- can Government made its first finan- cial contribution toward the ex- penses os the league, when Represen - tative Stephen G. Porter yesterday sent in a check for $1.954 as the pro- rata share of the United States of the expenses of the opium conference during the period of 1924. The United States contributed on the same basis as Great Britain, which pays the highest subscription to the upkeep of the league. This arrangement whereby the United States contributes her share of the costs of league actlvities in which she participates is believed by league officials to be the most satis- |« factory arrangement all around. In the case of the opium conference the United States came forward with the offer. Previous American official co-opera- tion has been on special invitation and without any sharing of the ex- penses. However, private organiza- tions have contributed largely to the work of the league. The Interna- tlonal Health Board has given about $200,000 and the other organizations which have contributted include the Bureau of Social Hygiene, New York; an Red Cross, and the Society of International e The ensy mark doesn’t know how il wome salexman of ~ or bonds hax his Two ‘Cars in One— STUDEBAKER Duplex Phaeton “PHILLIPS™ MILK OF MAGNESIA Accept only genuine “Phillips,” the eriginal Milk of Magnes r!pscribed by physicians for 50 yi antacid, laxative, corrective. 25-cent bottles, also 50-cent bottles, eontain directions—any drug store.

Even today, with prices largely stabilized, the costs to the Telephone Company of all the things that go into giving telephone serv- ice are on the average about 65 per cent above the pre-war level. Notwithstanding this, we are today giving Washington a far more efficient and comprehensive telephone service than before the war at a cost to our subscribers, on the average, of only 20 per cent over the pre-war rates. This moderate increase in the cost of your telephone service, as compared with the increased costs of the other things that make * up your daily expenditures, is shown in this chart.
