COMPULSORY SERVICE ! URGED (Independent Cable Service.) LONDON, March 20. A large section of the Press is advocating compulsory national service, which the "Daily Express" declares will be the big political issue of the immediate future. Many important supporters of the Government are pressing for the formation of a compulsory register.
