general has received notice of the elimina-
ton of two more branches of service to
which the self-inducted men have been
going These are the land forces of the
signal corps at Fort Leavenworth and the
engineers at Vancouver barracks. The
signal corps notice only pertains to Fort
Leavenworth and does not effect the corps
at other forts. This reduces the chances
of self-inducton into other than to the
infantry, medical corps and spruce divi-
sion. Under certain conditions and by spe-
cial individual authority men may go
