New Stuff!

There's reaction and reaction
For example, there's reaction from autocratc to
democratic methods for doing things.
That's good stuff It's American majority stuff, too.
Contrary minded persons, please take notice in time.
Get off the track, there!
Then there's reaction to the rule of the few in public
and general affairs.
That's old stuff No of that, please.
the new stuff is the all get-together doctrine
In the all comrades, all Americans It
one for all and all for and everybody the job
And so the job done and well DONE at that.

Meet the New Emergency

Germanys assault civilization found the world. IN
Guiding the United States mitary unprepared to properly
resist.
Advocates of preparedness in the United States found
little sympathy for months after the broke Europe
America finally awakened to the danger to liberty
and democracy
The emergency grandy met as all the world knows
It quickly met too.
But while it being met those who urged prepared
ness for peace were wet-blanketed
This may last five ten years., the directors to
preparation of business and industrial plans declared I'VE
have time to make peacetme plans in the midst Of
great war"
They just blind those who in peace-time
wouldn't prepare to meet the German menace.
Now that the is ended find ourselves in need
of a definite industrial and business program.
1t isn't here
We didn't make it when it should have been made.
Well be compelled to work hard and swiftly to meet
the situation thus created OF course. wen meet gandy
