TELEPHONE INDUSTRY EXPLAINED — Ronald J. Kinley, community relations manager for United Telephone Company, center, described developments in the telephone business for the Kiwanis Club of Lakeland. North Webster, on Monday morning, July 28. With the speaker are Lakeland Kiwanis President Dean McFadden, right, and Vice President Jack Maule, left. The community relations manager pointed out that the three major events that have affected telephone companies are the break up of Bell Telephone Company, deregulation, and technology. Toll rates are high because they have helped to support local service. Kinley explained that telephone customers will soon be helping to select the company for their long distance calls. Technological developments make it possible for a caller to call two different persons and carry on a three-way conversation by phone. It is also possible for a customer to receive calls wherever he might be. The question of measured service, where charges to customers are based on the number of calls made, has not been resolved as yet. He mentioned that United Telephone Company would be making adjustments for this kind of service it has adopted.
