1t is true that when we learn to
think together, work together, and
act together, we can go places.
Also, we will fully realize that
whe the year of 1947 comes to its
end, many problems we now face
will reduced and we all will find
that it pays great dividends to
stand up and be real citizens.
Now, in conclusion, let each one
OF us face the New Year with new
courage, new convictions, and a
full determination to stand up as
men and women with solidarity
OF purpose, practicing the spirit
of cooperation among ourselves
and exercising good will and fair
