Charge is made if the called station answer¬ ed, and calls will not be reversed. Upon request the Manager’s office will furnish you a list of telephone numbers of subscribers in Atlanta whom you call fre¬ quently. To obtain telephone numbers of subscribers not on your list, call the Infor¬ mation operator. The new service does not cancel the present rate for pai titular party service.
