Mountain States companies are units,
recognizing the many needs Of the
government for efficient telephone
service in pushing the war. placed its
entire plant at the disposal of the
government. Since that time all gov
eminent telephone business has been
given precedence over commercial
business. and over 1000 miles Of wire
have been taken from commercial use

engaged in training men for the

Nine camps are training officers for
the reserve corps. All these camps
and stations have been supplied with
equipment similar to that of Camp
Cody, meaning some 5S,000,00 feet Of
copper wire used, 100000 miles OF
