§ Sir B. FALLEasked the Postmaster-General if a subscriber to the telephone is to be forced to continue his contract with the Post Office till the end of the period of his contract at the new and 964W increased rates, or if he can give up the user of the telephone?
§ Mr. ILLINGWORTHUnless specially provided for otherwise, a subscriber whose contract under the old rates is still current cannot be required to pay the new rates until the contract has been determined; and he can then decide whether he will enter into an agreement at the new rates, which—in the case of an existing subscriber—would run from quarter to quarter.
