TACOMA NEED NOT
FEAR END OF WAR

Manufacturing in Tacoma is on firm foun-
dation and the collapse of the great European
war will have no effect upon its industries.
There are no war babies in Tacoma's long
list of manufacturing interests.
Too far from the munitions making center
to obtain the momentary profits now realized,
it is likewise too far removed to be affected by
the slump that may, i'll some localities, follow
the end of the conflict
Substantial material manufactured here
and needed more in times of peace than those
OF war will be in demand more than ever when
Mars retires from the field and Peace takes
the ascendancy.
