THE CONSCRIPTION BILL.

(Tq the Editor). Sir,—Whiie thanking you for a past favour, 1 would ask you to kindly allow me the use of ia further space in jour columns. It is impossible and useless to reply fully to Mr. Read in these columns. Hi# letter speaks for itself, and "the best and most practical answer, to it is to be found in our Roll of Honour, audi the daily mounting casualty lists, it is inconceivabla that the six million volunteers whom Britain Tuas sent to this war should all be wrong, and Mr. Read right. Making the Conscription Bill the scapegoat, when it is not only the element of compulsion, but service of any kind, under any consideration, that he objects to, will not avail Mr. Head much.— am, etc., I M.J.
