The Collection of “’Slow” Telephone Accounts TH IS AND THE CHATS that are to follow, are published as frank and open discussions of the question of collecting “ slow” tele phone accounts. THEY ARE DESIGNED to show that it is desirable, particularly at this time, to save the time and labor that is now expended in collecting bills that remain unpaid after the lapse of a reasonable period of time. W hile most TELEPHONE accounts are paid promptly, there are a number of “slow\ accounts that require labor, time and ex pense that might better be devoted to other work that is more directly in line with the interests of the public’s telephone service. W E believe that this method of bringing the matter to the attention of the public, this frank and open discussion of our aims, is all that is necessary to secure proper understanding and co-operation.
