IRE ON SIGNAL CORPS
(Continued from Page One)
interesting to those present. In clos
ing he said,; “It is a pleasure for me
in behalf of the city to extend any
service or courtesy we may render to
the officers and men of the Signal
Corps.”
Following adjournment of the lunch
eon and during the interview accorded
The Gateway representative, Captain
Guthrie gave out the added informa
tion that at the present time housing
plans and other arrangements are be
ing made in advance of the arrival of
the Seward’s new citizens. Many of
the soldiers and their families will be
quartered at the radio station across
the bay but four or five families and
many of the unmarried men will have
to seek shelter in the city, he said.
Headquarters from the first of next
month on, will be in the two story
stucco house now occupied by Master
Sergeant Sanford in charge of the
cable office. In this building will be
the offices of Captain Guthrie, Lieu
tenant Clarke and Lt. Jones and their
respective staffs of clerks and assist
ants. Warehouse A, of the railroad
company, has been turned over to the
Signal Corps and will be used as a
warehouse to house the signal supplies
clothing, and equipment of the entire
system. The cable office will remain
where it is in the Government build
ing but a large room on the second
i floor has been reserved for a remote
| control station for the radio depart
! ment.
Iu the warehouse will be located the
| store, owned and controlled by the en
: listed men, from which staple groc
eres and necessities will be sold at
cost to soldiers only. This store, Cap
tain Guthrie says, will not compete
with local grocery establishments any
further than is necessary to reduce
the cost of a soldier’s living to a point
within the government allowance.
“We are bringing to Seward some of
the finest men in the finest army in
the world” he said. “The high standard
of selection observed by the Signal
Corps everywhere is a matter of com
mon knowledge, but the men chosen
for Alaskan service are in every way
exceptional. We have privates who-are
today operating one-man stations in
the interior which requires high mech
anical and professional skill, diplo
macy and business sagacity and integ
rity and they are carrying on their
duties year after year without an er
ror so far as we can judge. Some of
them are operating stations they have
set up themselves in the wilderness
and which no officer ever has seen.
“A soldier comes in out of the
States, received his outfit and tech
nical equipment, plus a few instruc
tions.
‘“Jones’, says the officer, you will
proceed by railroad two days to this
point,' indicating the point on a map;
‘from there yoij will take boat for five
days down the river. At this point,
indicating again, you will procure a
pack horse and proceed over the
mountains to your station. There you
will erect masts and give us a signal.
You’re off!’ Time goes by; weeks and
maybe months. Then, one fine evening
the control station hears a faint click
and out of the blue a message is re
ceived which a calm soldier operator
relays on to proper authority: ‘Pri
vate Jones reports’. ‘Very 'fteir says
the authority looking up from his writ
ing’ tell him to keep snappy; We’ve
got a waiting list for his job.”’
“These are the kind of men we have
in Seward already, and many more of
the same are coming from Valdez.’’
Captain Guthrie hopes they will be
taken into the hearts and homes of
the people of this community and that
their unselfish devotion to duty and
j country will be repaid in kind.”
