GREETINGS

We have been travelling along
together, day after day, through
the most eyentful year that Amer
lea has known for the last century
and a half. We have certainly
lived history and have known all
shades Of hope and doubt and anx-
1ety, but always with firm con-
.vlction at heart that good old In
Gle Sam was coming out all right.
And now that we have come to
Christmas time only the JOY Of vic
tory is ours.
We look forward to the era Of
building up our peace institutions
again with the same firm convic-
ton that Uncle Sam will come out
an better shape than ever.
We hope our friends and sub
seribers have had successful year
despite the burdens of wartime
And we hope that they may, one
AMI all, have prosperity and good
luck of every kind in the year to
come
And now We offer the cOmpli-
ments of the season and tender our
thanks for your goodness to us dur
ing the past year.
The support given The Common
wealth has been generous to a de
gree, and the many kind words COZ
veyed to us have been an inspira
ton and have served as an impet
us in the many hours Of toll.

dinner here that the time is near at
hand when the men of the working

declared, "and in the very near future
we must look to the worker for So
luton of the great economic questions
now being considered. am not one
to carelessly turn over my belongings
for the uplift of the nation, but / am
one who has come to belief that the
worker will rule and the sooner we
realize this the better it will be for
our country and the world at large"
''In these times of war" Mr.. Schwab
said, 'we of America should not criti-

our nation. We are behind him and
we are behind the nation. When |
say we mean the steel men Of the
United States. Within the next IL
months we will have more tonnage
on the ocean than all the nations of
the world.
"But don't let US run away with the
idea that we have a light job on our
hands. We must realize that it is the

dollar and his last drop Of blood in
defense of his country.

not pessimistic, but we must contrib
