And we knew that when our armed forces meet the supreme test of this war, they will meet it with the best equipment that modern science can produce. We must keep on buying war bonds until the struggle is over. There has been much talk about victory in 1944, But that is foolish talk. Victory will come when the war is over, and no one can tell when that will be. Until the enemy collapses we must continue to fight, increasing our blows, not only on the battlefront, but at home. is the lot of us at home, compared to fight with death a constant neighbor, those who anxious to drop in for a call Our men are getting shot at and killed. The invasion of Europe will be a dreadful slaughter of human life, for both sides. And after that will come the Pacific. We must take back 20 times more territory in the Pacific than we have taken so far This war is just beginning to get tough We can do very, very little here at pared with what our men are doing and are going to home com- do abroad But we little things. The people of Gastineau Channel are asked to raise a paltry $315,000 during the next seve weeks, during the Fourth War Loan Drive. How many bonds will you buy? Better Late (Washington Post) WE HAVE DONE VERY LITTLE So far the United Nations have liberated about one-fifth of the territory taken by the Nazis, and only one-twentieth of the area seized by Japan Think at over whenever you start to talk about the end of the war ) So far we have fought around the fringes of the Axis strongholds. So far we have not met the full war might of either Germany or Japan Soon we will be fighting on this scale and our casualties will be terrific. It will be up to the Amer- 1 people then to show if they can “take it.” No matter what we do, we cannot to any great effect ease the blows that will fall upon our men when they attack—and the enemy defends, and strikes back But we, Nashingtos at least about half of us, have deprived gentina, from our Latin American critic, Ar- while spurning meat from The release from the Army of several thousand technicians to go back to jobs in aircraft factories is an open confession of bungling and mismanagement of the manpower problem. For want of these men the air program has suffered. Meantime the Army has spent time and money on men who will have little to show for the Army’s efforts except honorable discharges. Thus by a roundabout and wasteful system of draft and discharge, men are being returned to essential war work that they never would have left if the WMQC, acting in cooperation with Selective Service officials, had developed a proper system for mobilizing civilian labor. Of course, the men will hot find themselves as they were. Their status will be different from that of their fedlow: The practical effect of making honorable discharges from the | Army contingent upon acceptance of designated civil- ian jobs is to put civilian workers under Army control, since the men released are placed in the enlisted reserve and presumably would be recalled if they deserted their assigned posts. A little compuision exerted at the right time to keep these men in their positions would have them more freedom of action in xlu- long run.
