The Human Factors
In Good Service.

There are three parties to every tele-
phone conversation-the party calling,
the trained operator. and the party who
answers. All three share alike the respon-
sbility for quick and accurate telephone
service.
The calling party should give the cor
rect number in distinct voice, speak
ing directly into the transmitter, and
wait at the telephone until the party an
swers or the operator reports. The called
party should answer promptly.
Patience on the part of the telephone
user and the telephone operator is also es-
sential to good service.

WASHINGTON = Provost Marshal
General Crowder estimates the total
registration of men of military age
June at 9,250,O00 or million under
the original estimate. The census
estimates, lit is believed, were too
large. Slackers, it is thought, are
comparatively few.
Provost Marshal General Crowder
sent to the governors of all the states
a message asking them ito inaugurate
from tomorrow vigorous, aggressive
and effective enforcement of the penal
clause of the selective service law
against all who by their failure to
register brought themselves under
those provisions.
The penalty for failure to register
on June 5 is Imprisonment for year
and enforced registration, but Gen.
Crowder Immediately after registra-
tion day ruled that local registration
boards provide further opportunity
for delinquents.
