There is, first, the obligation to the users of the telephone system to give them proper service at low- tion to the owners to protect their property and pay them a fair return on the money they advance to build the system. These two obligations have been scrupulously ful- Quebec are the lowest in the world for comparable service. The Board of Railway Commissioners has officially acknowledged that they are more reason- able than other rates in Canada. The 15,300 owners of the system receive a fair re- turn, but net more than a fair return. The com- pany's policy has handed out no "melons" nor extra dividends. A test of this is the actual experience of a share- holder who bought Bell Telephone stock on the mar- ket fifteen years ago at $146 and has since taken advantage of every opportunity fo buy new shares as they have been offered. His annual return today, on the money he has paid for his shares, is less than seven per cent. To be exact it is 6.9 per cent. in the national interest THaE og does not favor any change in its policy, because te thorsorand-af-Sho-otimpauyis policy. iu. sltidioatis fulfilling the obligations to both weers and dwn: ers justifies its continuance, 2. if, however, the financial policy of public utility companies is to be fixed by parliament it should be made applicable to all such cdbmpanies rather than to single out one company which does not deserve special restrictions. 8. a change in policy is not in the national interest; it means that Canadian investors will be attracted to put their money into numerous American utility companies with which the telephone company is now competing for new capital and where it is the recognized practice to offer new shares to stockholders. The present policy of the company safeguards fu ture expansion of the telephone system hy retaining support of reli- able investors, and promotes the Rational interest of Canadians fn Canadian development. | pr DRESSES Dresses of wool faille and Other: servivuable Winter weight latest sien All Se : m $7.95 to $14.95 KITE SUITS Only a few left of these heavy quality knitted suits in colors of Fawn, Red and "SUTCLIFFE & SONS, mo = Where People Like to Shop = BOYS' OVERCOATS "A chance to save many dollars 'by buying Boys' Overcoats now.
