MILITARY TRAINING WILL BE VOTED ON

POLLS OPEN 8.30 TO 6

In order to determine the opinion of the University on the subject of universal military training, the CRIMSON will hold a straw vote on Wednesday, January 24. The question asked on the ballots will be: "Do you favor some form of universal military training in the United States?"

This vote is being taken because of the interest aroused in the Chamberlain Bill which provides for universal military training. The Senate Committee on Military Affairs has been hearing opinions on this question from representatives of all social and industrial classes in the country. In order to determine the attitude of the various educational institutions the committee desires some formal expression of opinion from the colleges and universities. Yale has already voted heavily in favor of universal military training.

Ballot boxes for the voting on Wednesday will be placed at Memorial Hall, the Union and the CRIMSON Building. The polls will be open from 8.30 in the morning to 6 o'clock.
