V One Man Out of Six With tho Colors One man out of every six from the maintenance and construction forces of this company is now in the army. A large proportion of the volunteers from the Bell System are technically trained men. Such employees are hard to replace. f Bell Telephone men in the army signal corps service are getting the same pay they did at, home. The Bell System is making up the difference between their former wages and the amount they now get from the government Since the war began, one of our great problems has been to read just our organization to handle the work left by the heavy enlistment of our working forces, and at the same time to take care of the tre mendous inorease in telephone traffic caused by war activities. In spite of tho war and what It has meant to this company In tha Increased number of telephone messages to handle, the enlistment of so many of our trained men, the shortage of equipment, the scarcity of labor and th high cost of telephone materials " In spite of all these obstacles, we are meeting the needs ui tho publlo for telephone service In a remarkably successful way.
