State to War on Drug Peddlers.
A vigorous enforcement of the Penn-
sylvania Anti-Narcotic Act, especially in
relation to drug addicts and drug ped-
dlers, was promised this week by Dr,
B. Franklin Royer, Acting Commission-
er of Health in announcing the comple-
tion of the organization of the Bureau of
Drug Control as an integral part of the
State Department of Health,
The drug addict and the drug peddler
are going to find it hard to do business
in Pennsylvania henceforth. The State
law, according to Dr Royer, is a public
health measure and will be rigidly en-
forced as such, The Federal Drug Act
is primarily an international revenue
law but the Pennsylvania Act is intra-
State and under the police power of the
State and regulates the possession and
dispensing of narcotic drugs within
Pennsylvania, Hereafter complete re-
cords of the sale of all narcotic drugs
are to ‘be furnished to the Bureau of
Drug Control and the prescription re-
cords of physicians and pharmacists and
others are to be open for inspection at
all times, Drug addicts are to be
watched and the Bureau will see that an
accurate account is kept of the supply
of the various narcotics within the State,

New Telephone Toll Rates
Effective January 21, 1919.
(Announced December 13, 1918, by Postmaster General, Washington, D. C.)
New schedules of rates for telephone toll calls (to points outside the local service area) under which
all toll calls throughout the United States are placed on a uniform basis, became effective 12.01 a.
m., January 21, 1919,
Under these new schedules the ** station to station ' rate is the base rate upon which all rates for
the various classes of service offered, are computed. This rate is determined by the air line]distance
between toll points and is computed, for the initial period, on the basis of 5c for each six miles up to
24 miles and 5¢ for each 8 miles beyond that distance,
For toll calls where the calling party does not specify a particular person to be reached at the called
telephone, *‘ station to station ’’ rates are charged.
For toll calls where the calling party does specify a particular person to be reached at the called
telephone and the connection is established and conversation held with that person, “person to
person’ rates are charged. As this service requires a greater amount of operating effort, the rate
for such calls is about one-fourth greater than the *‘ station to station '’ rate. The minimum * per-
son to person’ rate is 20c.
Toll calls involving an appointment to talk at a specified time, or involving the use of messenger ser-
vice to secure attendance of a designated person at a public telephone at a distant point may be
made at rates usually about one-half greater than the *‘ station to station’ rate, plus the cost of
messenger service. The minimum rate for such calls is 25e.
For all toll calls other than those made on the ‘‘ station to station’ basis, where connection is
established but the conversation is not held because the calling or called party is not present or will
not talk, a *‘ report charge '’ is made, equivalent to about one-fourth of the * station to station’
rate. The minimum “ report charge’ is 10¢ ; maximum $2.00. No “ report charge ’’ is made if
the call is completed before midnight of the day it is placed.
Night rates, applying only to calls made on a “‘station to station’ basis, are quoted between 8.30
p. m. and 4.30 a. m. The rate between 8.30 p. m. and 12 midnight is about one-half the “station to
station’ day rate, and between 12 midnight and 4.30 a. m. about one-fourth the ‘‘station to sta-
tion” day rate. The minimum night rate is 25¢.
“‘Station to station” calls must be made as far as possible by giving the telephone number of the
called telephone. When the number is not known and telephone directory information is not avail-
able the number should be obtained from ‘Information,’ or if the called telephone is at a distant
point, the name and address of the called subscriber should be given to the Toll Operator, stating
that it is a ‘“station to station’’ call. 3
The *““station to station’ rates are substantially lower than the “person to person’’ rates. In or-
der that patrons may effect the greatest economy in their charges for toll service, and also maxi-
mum speed of connections, they are urged to study their toll service requirements and to make the
widest possible use of ‘station to station’ calls.
