ASKS VOLUNTEERS
TO STEP FORWARD.
Registration Board Feels That Per-
sons Willing to Serve as Regis
trars Are Delaying Action.

Wilmingtons Central Registration
Committee, IN charge OF preparations
for the approaching registration day
September l2~under the new lS-to-f5
sclective draft. and responsible TO the
Government for the success OF the regis
tration itself. wants FIVE hundred volunteer
men and women registrars and wants
them AZ once.
The call was ISSUED last week and there
have been numerous responses but the
quota is far from complete, much to'the
surprise of the committee The need for
these registrars for service at the various
registration points throughout the city
IS imperative. and, as nothing rs required
from them except willingness to serve
and the giving OF one days time, or
part of n day, it was confidently expected
that the call would be answered with
something of rush
Oddly. enough this has not been the
cast There have been n good many
responses but the number rs far short
of the actual noeds This may be due
Ia the fact that while the call was known
the President proclamation fixing the
date of registration as September II was
not issued until late Saturday and persons
willing 10 register did not therefore
know the date upon which their service
would he expected IL Is believed also
that a large number have delayed volun-
teering. although quite willing to do so,
until the proverblal last moment. IL
should be remembered, however, that
the committee has its assignments to make
and that registrars must tn sworn IN,
all Of which takes time. Those who are
willing to serve should lose no time IN
making their willingness known.
The committee is acting on behalf
az Uncle Sam, who expects men and
women citizens to render this very small
and unexacting patriotic duty without
compensatiun Wilmington always has
led Delaware in swift responses to all
calls the Government has made and
Delaware always has been in tho fore
front TO eive when the Government ha.
asked This has been particularly true
| of calls for money for Liberty Loan drives,
for Red Cross work and for other war
purposes But this time money is not
| wanted only service and that but for a

The committee wants election officers

WOUNDED SOLDIERS PAY

Washington, Dec. 12.-While no
specific complaint has reached Major
Gen. Ireland, Surgeon General Of the
army, that men in hospitals in this
country had not been paid promptly,
Secretary Baker believes it possible
that there are many Of the wounded
and sick soldiers brought home from
Europe who probably have not rcceiv-
ed their pay for several months.
The Secretary explained today that
the old pay system under which COM
pany commanders made out pay rolls
of the men of the companies had
been broken down because wounded
and sick men became so far separated
from their commands that it was i'm
possible for the company commanders
to know what had become Of them.

for only three simultaneous telephone
conversations.
"In telegraphy, as we'll as in tele-
phony, sensational results have been
attained by the new system. BY COM
bining two telegraph wires into me-
tallic circuit of the type used for tel
ephone working, and by applying our
new apparatus and methods to this
metallic, circuit, we have enormously
increased the capacity of the wires
for telegraph messages, without in
any way impairing the quality of tele-
graph working.
The nature of these developments
is such that the desired wires NAV be
used partly for telephone and partly
for telegraphy. A pair of wires is
available either for five simultaneous
telephone conversations or for forty
simultaneous telegraph messages, or
partly for one and partly for the
other.
"From the nature of the apparatus
and the methods employed the sys

been in service for more than q
month. "On Monday of this week."
he said, accompanied by a oarty of
distinguished government and telc
phone and telegraph officials, l made
an inspection of the system at Balti-
