Telephone information service may face 10 cent charge
Pacific Telephone customers received a yellow slip urging use of the phone book for numbers to cut operator costs. The California Public Utilities Commission staff proposed a 10 cent information call fee for local numbers, with exemptions for blind and handicapped and no charges in coin booths. Pacific Telephone called the idea premature and said it would require two years to implement, with no firm adoption. The PUC expects a decision next year, while Cincinnati already approved a similar plan and other regions consider it.
