RURAL TELEPHONE FEES
(Special to the "Evening Post.")
PALMERSTON N., This Day.
Since repeated requests by the Farmers' Union for a reduction in rural telephone fees have failed to produce results, the Manawatu provincial executive yesterday decided to ask the Dominion executive to secure full particulars of administrative costs of the rural service as compared with town and city services for the purpose of ascertaining whether or not rural subscribers had a legitimate grievance. In the event of the grievance being substantiated, a request is to be made that a reduction in fees should become a demand supported by some form of direct action.
