VICTORY ON THE MARCH

With the return of General Nc
Arthur to Manila there is cause for
general rejoicing not only to Amer
leans but to the Filipino who has
stood so bravely by and helped to
save his country, it is truly a great
day. When nearly 5000 brave
souls were released from the prison
camp near Manila it was found
only a few were so i'll they may
die, even tho medical help has ar
rived. When Julia. Ward Howe
wrote the Battle Hymn of the Re-
public" she little realized she was
expressing what could be written
of this days war feeling.
Mine eyes have seen the glory of
the coming of the Lord.
He is tramping out the vintage
where the grapes of wrath are
stored;
He has losed the fateful lightning
of His terrible swift sword;
His Truth is marching on.
have seen Him in the watch-fires
of a hundred circling camps;
They have builded Him an altar in
the evening dews and damps.
l can read His righteous sentence
by the dim and f1aring lamps;
His day is marching on.
In the beauty of the lilies Christ
was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that
transfigures you and me;
AS He died to make men holy, let
us die to make men Free,
While God is marching on.

ditional surrender. Even then, they
will bear careful watching for
years to come, if ever they can be
trusted to preserve the peace OF
the world.
Out your way, splendid progress
is being made. Our armed forces
with the help of our Allies, are
moving swiftly along the route to
Japan. There will be great salts
faction on the part of every Amer
lean once we're engaged with the
Jap Rats on their home sol. But
the road back is of much distance
and will require time to reach the
ultimate goal. No one back home
questions the final outcome, but we
do believe that the length of time
involved will depend in a measure
on what Russia does in the next
few months ahead. Should Russia
enter the war against Japan, we
believe the day for final victory
will be greatly advanced. Let us
all hope that this will happen
soon.
Best of uck to you Tommy, and
be sure to let us hear from you
whenever you have the time to
write. Meanwhile, we'll be roofing

Coca Cola Quality
Unaffected BY
OPA Sugar Cut

The supply of Coca-Cola in I'm
perial County definitely will be af-
fected by the further curtailment
in the supply of sugar after July
st because the manufacturer of that
popular drink will not compromise
with the use of substitutes.
However, an equitable system of
rationing will be maintained in I'M
perial County during the shortage.
according to Mr.. H. W. Fawcett,
president of the El Centro Bottling
Company.
The O.P.A. announced today that
the allotment of sugar to industrial
users would be cut to 500 of the
sugar used in the third quarter of
1941, effective July 1st.
Il am informed that this sugar
shortage Is worldwide and not
merely national and is directly at
tributed to the confusion in the
production and distribution of sugar
occasioned by the war" said Mr..
Fawcett.
Sugar is absolutely necessary in
the manufacture of Coca-Cola. We
cannot and will not use sweetening
substitutes, and therefore will not
compromise with the integrity of
Coca-Cola. Therefore when sugar
is short, there must be a shortage
in the amount of Coca-Cola, but
you can be certain that the quality
Of Coca-Cola will remain unchanged.
My Company is committed to
play fair with our Government and
obey its regulations in both letter
and spirit to maintain the quality
of our drink and to maintain an
equitable distribution system to
serve all our customers equally and
that we will do.
I'VE still have a war to win and
that comes first, but we will at
tempt still to get you all of the
Coca-Cola that is possible and what
we have will be available to all. I
only ask that if your dealer does
not have Coca-Cola available on the
day you seek it, ask him another day
because we will keep our distribution
up on regular basis although the
supply will be curtailed'

We have several walters on the
sick list; one, Ralph Ward, MP,
waiter-in-charge on a cafe car. Mr..
Ward has been i'll from the effects
of pneumonia for two months. At
the present time he is able to be
up and about, but is still pretty
weak, so he won't be able to return
to work for quite some time. We
were glad to hear of Mr.. Wards
improvement, and hope it won't be
too long before he will be "up
and at 'em" again. Our other con-
valescent is Bill Wesley, MP. Bill
came in off his run last week feel
ing not so good; but after staying
in bed for several days, under the
care of his little nurse, Gen." Bill
is in better state of health. Kath-
ryn Pettiford is ill, too. If she
isn't back to work by the time this
is read, let's cheer Kathryn up with
a visit.
