WITNESSES, gold mesh, metallic
threads, embroidery yarn, hand
some, damasks, brocades, vel

es and combine with new twists
that show triumphant results.

WAR NOT OVER YET

That the war is not yet over is
warning that has been given the
American people by General Dwight
D. Eisenhower, and others in high
ranking military positions, says the
Washington News Bureau.
There are many sound reasons for
the Army and Navy taking this posi-
ton. In the first place, it is factual
The casualties announced after Sal
nan and the Normandy invasion bear
tragic evidence tkat such is the case
But there are other factors invol-
we'd, which are vital to the future
peace of the world. Reliable informa-
ton shows that the strategy OF Ger
many at the present time is to win
a negotiated peace so as to prepare
for another try at world conquest.
German diplomatic and military lead
ers know that tkey cannot win the
war on the military front, but they
also know that the German armies
are still powerful and, while those
armies of the Nazis retain their pow
er, Germany would like to have ne
gotiated peace, for Germany would
have considerable bargaining power
at the peace conference, but If tie
German armies are thoroughly de-
feated on the field of battle, if troops
of the United Nations occupy Ger
man soil and parade through German
cities, so that the German populace
can see for themselves that their
Wekrmacht has been defeated, nay
more, destroyed, then German diplo-
mats, army officers, industrialists and
iuInkers will be compelled to accept
unconditional surrender, and the
chances of Germany's starting anoth-
er World War in the next twenty
years will have been considerably re-
duced and perhaps made impossible.
No the war is not yet over and as a
popular song of World War put it,:
sit won't be over until it's over, over
there" The harder each of us works
on the war effort, the sooner the war
may be over. We all know that the
men over there will do their part 1t
remains for us over here not to let
them down for one minute or one
fraction of minute and the Ameri-
can people will not.
