A member pointed out that owing to the serious depression in trade many telephone subscribers were finding it increasingly hard to pay the high rental charged. Some had already decided to have it cut off, and others were seriously thinking* of doing the same. After discussion it was decided to approaeh the various local bodies with a view to getting their support to a request to the Government for a reduction of not less than 20 per eent. in the telephone rentals.
