J ADAbl —
The war is won and we are truly thankful. .. Now as
the din of battle fades, we pledge anew to the accomplish
ment in fact of an enduring peace.
New problems face us—but Americans can muster
all out effort in the cause of a secure peace just as they
went all out in the pursuit of armed victory. Our fighting
men and women as well as those who have played their
part on the home front are now equal to the new tasks
ahead of them.
The forces of evil represented by Hitler and Hirohito
believed they could prosper more by taking what they
wanted from others than by creating what they wanted
themselves. Their utter failure has proved the folly of
such thinking. They have proved that good deeds are the
only paths to peace and prosperity.
Whether in the affairs of nations, of business houses
or individuals the principles of fair play always win in the
long run. The outcome of this war is ample proof of
that fact.
We join our fellow Americans in celebrating this righteous Victory and promise to play our part in creating a bright and
3 *. 4 * y. •
happy future not only for our Community but for our Country and the whole world.
