latter only desired to get out OF

freedom of their own country in

lization is moving swiftly IN order
and according to plan. Clearly
everything cannot be done at once
and patience will be needed. Each
step must follow the step before
and some units will go quickly
while others may be held little
longer for reasons that are very
real though sometimes not appar-
ent on the surface. AS America
made her power felt more quickly
than the foe thought possible SO
she will return that power to the
pursuits of Peace with all due
speed. AS you have shared in the
pride of the first accomplishment
so must your patience aid in the
present adjustment to new condi-
tions. The privilege of having
stood in the ranks of the Army of
victorious democracy will be your
pride through the years to come.
If fortune has decreed that only
weeks or months remain for you
to stand in those ranks instead OF
bloody years as our Allies have
done then bear yourselves through
the remaining days in a way to
increase that pride. The best
wishes of the country for nineteen
nineteen and all the coming year
are yours to those l add my own
