Effective December 1, all telephone
messages to the cost of 15 cents or
more will pay a war tax of one cent.
As every telegraph message is for a
minimum of 25 cents, the tax applies
to every dispateh sent over the wires.
Millions of dollars are expected to be
realized by th measure, which, some
people believe, will. operate to reduce
long-distance telephoning and the use
of the telegraph very slightly if at all.
In each case, of course, the patron
will pay the tax. .
