1350 MEN FoR 209 PLACES. 
In response to his recent announce- 
ment of the formation of a battalion 
of Signal Reserve Corps by telephone 
em] sloy ees, President Spalding of the 
eee England Telephone & Telegraph 
Company received about seven times 
many volunteers as could be en- 
listed. Only 209 men were needed, 
and 1350 volunteered. George K. 
Manson, chief engineer of the tele- 
phone company, is to be major of 
the proposed battalion, and the other 
officers have been tentatively selected 
but will not be announced until all ex- 
aninations have been completed. 
Major Manson had some difficulty 
in selecting those to go with him in 
this Signal Corps because of the 
abundance and quality of the volun- 
teer material presented, and also be- 
cause he could not afford to weaken 
the telephone organization at any 
point by the withdrawal of any con- 
siderable number of men. 
The telephone company has agreed 
to pay to men enlisted in the Signal 
Corps the difference between their 
army rate of pay and the rate paid 
by the company at the time of enlist- 
ing, thus practically guaranteeing each 
man his full wages. No time has yet 
as 
been set for mustering in this new
