PHONE RENTALS
AND RATES ARE
CUT IN NENANA
As the result of a conference
between Engineer in Charge Fred’k
D. Browne and Major E. R. Mc
Farland. superintendent of the tele
graph and telephone department of
the Alaskan Engineering commis
sion. which took place during the
recent visit of the coast wire offi
cial, telephone rates in Nenana will
undergo a material reduction on
April first, and the work of the
telephone operators will be placed
on a basis conforming to that of
other employes of the commission by
the employment of substitutes to
relieve the regular hello girls on
Sundays and holidays. The changes
were made known a circular issued
by Mr. Browne this week.
Under the new arrangement, busi
ness phones in Nenana will be re
duced from $10 per month to $7.50,
and the charge for phoning to North
Nenana will be eliminated alto
gether. An effort also is being
made to reduce the toll between Ne
nana and Fairbanks, Mr. Browne
having taken the matter up with
the Fairbanks Telephone company
with a view to the establishment of
a dollar rate between the two towns.
Telephone tolls in Xenana always
have been lower than those obtain
ing- in other Interior towns, but it
is the belief of Major McFarland
that they should be further reduced
to conform to tolls charged at An
chorage. The fact is recognized by
him that the number of subscribers
in Xenana is limited and, figuring
on a basis of service, tolls are high
er than they should be.
There will be no change in the
charge for residence phones.
