Yesterday the Palladium printed the editorial
expression of the leading newspapers in the Sixth
District. They reflect accurately and fairly the
sentiments of Representative Comstock's con-
stituency. Only two favor the volunteer system
and then with reservation that shows they
know that CONSUMPTION is the only answer to the
defense problem.
Says a dispatch from Washington today:

Write Your Congressman

Tell Representative Comstock that the Sixth
district wants universal military training. Writs
him and tell him that you believe in CONSUMPTION.
The issue Is well understood In the Sixth district
Representative Comstock ought to vote for the
method that will make every man do his duty
and prevent the Stacker from Sinking.
Read the appended editorial expression Of the
Chicago Tribune and then fire letter at your
representative in Congress asking him to come
out squarely for measure that will be as fair to
you as it is to the man who has political pull and
power. The Tribune's editorial, we believe, has
the endorsement of the rank and file Of the vot-
ers Of the Sixth District. It follows:
