BY JACK ALLEN. Patrons of four telephone exchanges in the suburban area of Montgomery County will receive a reduction in | rates on January 1 under a table of changes which the Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Co. voluntarily offers through an application filed with the Maryland Public Service Commission late yesterday. The basic rates in the exchanges— Wisconsin, Bradley, Shepherd and silver Spring—are to be cut from 25 to 75 cents per month, while the sub- scribers also will receive several ad- ditional benefits by other changes which the telephone company pro- poses to make. Maximum Increased. Included among the latter are an increase in the maximum number of calls allowed under the flat rate on two-party lines, a scaling downward of the charge for additional local messages on lines of that type, an im- mediate reduction in the rental of the so-called French type phones, with the charge ultimately to be eliminated entirely. Former zones 1 and 2 of the Brad- ley-Wisconsin area are to be combined in & new zone 1, while former zones 3 and 4 under the new plan become zones 2 and 3, respectively. In the Sil- ver Spring-Shepherd area, former zone 2 is to be combined with zone 1 and subscribers living outside this area will THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, Found Begging Nickels, She Just Smiles at Officials. Arlington Puzzle Finclly Solved by Name of Mother. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE, Va., December 10.—County officials and court house employes took time off to visit the Public Welfare Office yes- terday, where 5-year-old Patsy Cole- man smilingly crooned to her doll while welfare officials telephoned vainly to find out where she had come from. Picked up on the streets of Claren- don, where she had embarked on a financial career by begging nickles from passers-by, the flaxen-haired, blue-eyed miss willingly accompanied a welfare worker to the court house, but was unable to give a satisfactory account of herself and her commercial activity. She knew her name and that of her doll, “Shirley,” and seemed to think that sufficlent. Contentedly rocking her doll while the authorities were puzzled, Patsy smiled encouragingly at each new visitor, apparently con- fident that everything would come out all right. Eventually it did, for Patsy finally volunteered the information that her mother lived in Washington. Mrs. Mae E.

Reductions Vary. Subscribers in the first zones of the | Shepherd and Wisconsin areas, who | formerly paid $5 for individual service, | will in the future pay $4.75 under the revised set-up. This rate will also ap- ply to subscribers in former zone 3, whose rate was $5.50.

L. Dye, chairman of the | Montgomery County Civic Federa- tion’s Public Utilities Committee, which has held many conferences with telephone officials on the rate reduction question, made public the proposed reduction at the federa- tion’s meeting in Bethesda last night. It was later learned that the com- i pany had gone before the Maryland Public Service Commission earlier in the day and formally presented the application for permission to make the voluntary changes in rates.
