Another addition to the Huron Centennial staff is Middlesex signs snagged A move to •eliminate business signs overhanging Middlesex County road allowances has hit a snag at the committee stage. Reeve Ivan Hearn, operator of a Lucan dairy, criticized any thought of elimination of overhanging signs Thursday :at a roads committee meeting. He also objected to the idea of limiting advertising signs to the location of the business. The draft sign regulation proposed by the county engineering department patterned after a West- minster Township bylaw will be studied further before presentation to county council. Reeve Frank Hamilton of Glencoe, who has a sign against his village gift store, said overhanging signs could not be eliminated for some time. The proposals calls for continuation of the overhanging signs until a repair or replacement is necessary. rediton East By MRS.

But you won't get any change from a quarter because Bell officials said it's too expensive to convert the phones to give Change, If aquarteris used though, you . will get some time con- cession. Bell Canada manager Peter Croome, Stratford, said that pay phones in the Exeter area will be con- verted to the new rates on a gradual basis some time this week. This will be the second time pay phones have been converted to a 20 cent rate. Previous approval for Bell to boost the rate was later rescinded by the CRTC. Now the CRTC has advised that the rate be increased everywhere despite the fact that Bell only asked for in- creased rates in locations such as golf courses and marinas. Croome said that pay phone rates had' not in- creased for some time and the company requires a cetain rate of return, The 13 per cent increase in rates 'means that monthly subscribers in the Exeter area will now pay a base rate of $6.25, up from $5.55. Both two-party and four-party lines have increased to $4.30 per month from $4.00. The base rate for in- dividual business lines has shot to $13.90 from $12.30. A Iwo-party business line has gone from $9.80 to $11.05 and a four-party business line has gone from $6.45 to $7.85. Switchboard truck lines have risen to $21.75 from $19.25. The cpst Of long-distance calls has risen an average 14.8 per cent for customer dialed calls. Other changes include a 10 cent increase to the 30 cent charge for directory now been broken down into four categories, so you may still be paying less depen- ding on the service required, Croome said. For example, if only administrative work is required, you'll be paying less than if a serviceman must come to your residence. Before, all ser- vices cost the same arneunt. The increases - affect subscribers in Quebec and Ontario and will generate an extra $1 million a day, or $385 million a year for Bell. Croome said that Bell may have .a monopoly on telephone service but not on the costs of providing the' service; such as salaries and gasoline costs. But there is some good news for the hearing han- dicapped who operate teletypewriters. A 50 per cent discount on long- distance customer-dialed calls is now in effect for the hearing handicapped who , have these machines. An explanation of the increase in rates is included in customer's monthly bills.
