Mr. LLOYD MORGANasked the Postmaster-General, in view of the approaching taking over of the business of the National Telephone Company, whether the privileges at present enjoyed by the public of telephoning throughout the night will be in any way restricted when under the management of the Post Office; and whether it is proposed to make any change as to the use of the telephone on Sundays?

§ Mr. BUXTONI do not anticipate that present facilities for night telephone service—so far as they meet an actual need on the part of the public—will be restricted after the transfer of the National Telephone Company's system to the State. The question of the extent of Sunday use will require careful consideration.
