T. company has an- nounced a rate reduction, effective Oot. 1, in the Danfelson division, the rate for single line residence telephone ser- vice being reduced $6 a year. The company’'s object in making the reduc- tion §s to make more general the use of single line telephone service. The plan, if successful, will result in the improvement of the service in general Announcement of the proposed re- duction was mailed to subscribers Saturday, in order that they may have an opportunity to arrange for the sin- gle line service before Aug. 30, on which date the October issue of the telephone directory goes to the printer, thus enabling the subscribers who | make the change to single lines to be listed accordingly.
