POSTWAR PLANNING

Americans must not sit back
and wait for the end of the war
to come and then founder around
for solutions to the problems they
will have to face, or worse still,
be forced into accepting tailor
made solutions of theorists.
Fortunately, Americans aren't.

there comes a concrete program
for a "full-employment' peace

economic potential to discover
the jobs that will have to b e
found if there is to be a job for
every man who wants one when
the uniforms come off.
Through interviews with all
local employers, data were OBJ
tanned on the probable number
of jobs that will exist after the
war. Studies also were made on
markets, farm income, business
conditions, and projected public
works in the community. Poten-
tial postwar customers in the city
and nearby farming community
were queried to learn what they
wanted to buy in the first two
postwar years.
Here is a community of citi-
zens, genuinely concerned with
the postwar picture, who DO not
lean back dolefully and wait for
utter confusion, or indulge in the
wishful thinking that envisages
the brave new world of wonder

1t is just as much the work of a
church to inspire people to build
sanitary privies, screen houses, and
grow adequate foods, as it is to
preach the Gospel-in fact, it is the
Gospel as preached and practiced
by our Master. It has been our
concern to help the eroded soil
