Following this there was a unanimous vote taken by the Post in favor of universal training. Congress has seen fit to put aside the universal training and is now to settle the bonus question. During March the Winnetka Post drew up a resolution which advocated the fol- lowing ways in which it believed Congress should give aid to ex-serv- ice men and in wha torder it should be given, The following two things should be cared for first of all. 1. Permanently provide for dis- abled soldiers. . 2. Commission to aid financing special cases of ex-service men. After these two, then provide one of the following: 1. Land settlement. 2. Home aid to assist in purchas- ing homes for ex-service men. 3. Increased exemption from in- come tax.
