This is indicated by the numerous additional comments written in on the returns. And, strikingly significant are the many personal letters citizens have been encouraged to write, commending the questionnaire but offering their views on other national issues. A sampling of the answers seems to indicate a similarity in points of view between the respondents and their Conessman. This affords him a ;asant sense of "being on he beam" and truly representing you. Many more questionnaires will be delivered in the 12th Congressional district in the next few days. A small percentage of the outgoing mail comes back from the post office marked "Moved - Left No Address," "Insufficient Address," "No Such Street," and Not Known." Anyone not receiving a questionnaire should notify the writer immediately. Or if you want additional copies, address your request to "Robert McClory, M.C., House Office Building, Washington 25, D.C." If you perfer to get in touch with the writer's district offices, in Waukegan the telephone number is ONtario 2- 0921; and in Belvidere the telephone number is Lincoln 4- 3959. In writing to your Congressman, be sure your return address accompanies your signature. To receive an answer to your mail, your address must always bgv_on the letter, as well as on the envelope. This is especially necessary if you want to receive the results of the questionnaire tabulation. Not only is it important to know "Where do you stand" but "Where do you live?"
