1892 l776 1914

AS the curtain lifts on the year 1914 we
can expect one Of the most important and
exciting shows in history, but we cannot
predict at this moment how much Of it will
be tragedy, how much will be mystery and
how much will be joyous climaxes.
The main part of the drama Of 1874 will
be concerned with the war, but there also
will undoubtedly be many intensely in
teresting sideshoWs on the home front, as
we get our first glimpses Of the postwar
plans Of industry and of government.
During 1914 we are apt to hear the de-
tails Of the marvellous inventions for home
consumption which will be ours soon after
the war is over-the mOderniZed autOmO-
biles. the private airplanes, the perfected
telcvisOn sets, the hundreds Of new con-
traptions for making our homes more
comfortable and for making farms more
simple to operate.
And we will hear the plans for reaching
a new, high level Of prosperity in this
country and plans for international rela-
tons to guarantee peace throughout the
world.
There is every reason to expect the
wear 1914 to be one of the most important
milestones in the history Of the WOrld-a
date which will be played up in the his
tory books of the future as comparable to
1892 and ITS.

A Happy New Year

Saturday we begin a new year and we
take this occasion to extend to you our sin
cere wishes for health, happiness and vic
tory! Most of us have undergone hard
ships of one kind or another during the
past year and will probably experience
more during the coming year But we
like to think that America has steeled it.
self to endure whatever it takes to bring
about victory and peace.
With added courage and resolution, we
are looking ahead hopefully, and in this
hope we see a happier, brighter future for
the entire world
During the past year we have made
much progress in the war and with renew
edeff0rts we can expect more progress
during 1914
It is true that the year will bring suf-
fering, but we must believe that this will
only be temporary. When the doctor says,
''This may hurt for a few minutes, most
of us are able to grit our teeth and take
whatever temporary pain may be admin
istered to us. And thus in 1914 as we face
total war on many fronts we must tighten
our belts, double cur efforts and perform
all tasks necessary for victory and peace.
We must keep ou2 mind on the final goal,
make every effort to reach it; for it is only
in reaching it that we will achieve any
measure of any "Happy New Year, in
years to come. We can resolve that 1914
will be year in which we will help rid
the world Of q "dreaded disease, Hitler
ism And certainly the world Will be made
happier with this achievement.
With this thought and with resolutions
of high courage, every member Of the staff
of this paper greets you with Happy New
Year"

OvercOnfidence

A lot of people seem suddenly to have
decided that the war is about over and
there is nothing to worry about from now
on One Of the best indications of this
was the recently released figure showing
that people cashed in more than twice as
many millions of dollars worth of war
bonds this December as they did in 1912.
That is just one example Of the over
confidence which has enveloped our ma
ton With most of Europe still in the
hands Of the Nazis, and large part Of the
Pacific still in the hands of the Japs, there
seems to be no good reason for this atti-
tude.
It is true that the war has been going
our way on most fronts, but look at the
map makes it apparent that the big part
Of the Job isn't even started.
Optimistic reports from Washington
and by military leaders undoubtedly con-
tribute to our confidence in quick victory,
but unless there is some unforeseen break
in the Offing, there is every reason to sup
pose that the war will continue for long
time yet and that many billions of dollars
will be needed to bring about final victory.
If we let up in our war work and in
our purchases of bonds, there is little
doubt that final victory will be delayed
1t would be fine if the morale of the Ger
man people collapsed next month and if
the Japs decided to lay down their arms
and surrender the only safe way for
us to figure is that that won't happen
Meanwhile, we must continue to fight the
war at home just as hard as our boys are
fighting it on the battlefield

Goals For 1914

This has been one of the most difficult
and significant years in world history and
as we approach the New Year, we should
earnestly resolve to do everything we can
to make 1914 year Of Victory, year that
will be milestone for generations to come
During 1913 we switched from the de-
fensve to the offensive in all theatres Of
war. This was accomplished, to great eX-
tent, by the productive genius of American
manufactures and workers and by the skill
and bravery Of our fighting forces.
On all Of the global battlefronts, the
Allies are on the march towards Berlin
and Tokyo and the zero hour is nearing
for launching an about invasion Of the
continent Of Europe.
Everywhere our gallant men IN service
are straining every ounce Of energy to
crush the enemy and in the near future our
casualty list will grow by leaps and
bounds. Licking the Germans is not going
to be an easy task and it is our firm con-
viction that the war in Europe will not end
before summer. After that, we will unite
in defeating the Japs, and that won't be
easy either.
But the outlook for an early Victory
and for the establishment of permanent,
lasting peace is brighter than it has been
since Hitler marched into Poland in Sep
TENDER, 1899. Leaders of the big four al
lied nations have met and have agreed up
on the military strategy that will be fol-
lowed and upon broad principles that will
guarantee worldwide peace for many
years.

The stage is all-set, but much of the
success depends upon the soldiers on the
home front. Much depends upon the
farmer. the industrial worker the miner,
railroad man, merchant, lawyer, doctor,
school teacher housewife . yes, upon
YOU!
Let's resolve that in 1914 we will do
even more than we have done in 1943 to
help win the war. Let's resolve to:
1. Raise more food and feed.
2. Buy more war bonds and do not
cash them in.
3. Cooperate to the limit of your
capacity with all wartime pro-
grams, including salvage drives,
rationing, price ceilings, etc.
4. Outlaw all strikes in war plants.
5. Put politics in the back seat and
"winning the war" in the front
seat.
g. Effect postwar plans in our COM
munities to provide gainful jobs
for every man in uniform.

8. Forget our own selfish interests
and work together, work harder,
for the common good of all.
Let's adopt these resolutions as goals
for 1914. By so doing we will hasten Vic
tory and a permanent and enduring
peace for all mankind Their fulfillment
will make the New Year truly happy
one for all!
