Daily ] have become more disturb
ed since World War II ended by the
apathy of the average citizen toward
what seems to me to be the all import
ant issue confronting the world at
this time-WORLD PEACE.
In those hectic days when the war
was on full blast and most of the ma
lions of the world were banded to-
gether in an understanding fellowship
cooperation in the Nth degree-to
battle a common foe that tremend-
Gus effort gained the victory for those
nations. The AWFULNESS of this
last war was carved so deeply upon
the minds and hearts of all humanity
that with one accord it was agreed
that never must there be a repetition
of the holocaust through which it had
just passed.
Here in the United States, untouch-
ed by bombs, our factories and shops
doomed. The good earth yielded
bountiful crops each year since the
war ceased and our granaries swell
ed to OVERLOOKING; grateful hearts
poured forth thanks to Divine Prov
idence for now we had enough and
to spare for the war-torn lands be-
yond our shores. The joyous season
of Christmastide again descended up
on the world with its teachings of
brotherly love. infinite patience and
season when we chant
loud and fervently, peace on earth,
good will to men," Each year for gen
erations we have gone through the
same ecstatic procedure and then,
hardly waiting for the echoes to die
away, we resolutely dump or pack
away every symbolic reminder of this
blessed season-even to the Spirit it. |

In like manner we have behaved |
toward the issue of WORLD PEACE

however, Christmastide will, no
doubt, return this year. next year, and

MAYOR WINE OF HELENA ANNOUNCES
FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL

School, and was engaged in private
practice in Helena when he entered
service in the infantry in the fall of
work in foreign countries, Wine
served in the Air Corps where he be-
came a BIZ pilot. When he was re-
leased following five years service in
the armed forces, he was appointed
an assistant attorney general in the
office of Attorney General Bottomly.
After resigning this position to re-
sumo his private practice, Mr.. Wine
ran for Mayor of Helena and was
elected. He was reelected without
opposition. Last year, under Mayor
Wines administration, city taxes were
reduced thirteen per cent, Helena
being the only first class city in the
state to show tax reduction. The
Helena mayor achieved the tax cut

emerged from this last war as the
most Influential power on the face
of the globe; all other countries con
coded this fact and looked to us for
leadership toward a warless world
where all disputes would be settled
around the conference table in a spirit
of brotherly love; all nations were
willing, nay eager, to come together
IN one big effort to establish an ever
lasting peace. Many vicissitudes
would have to be gone through and
ironed out because of differences in
race, religion, language and forms of
goyernment-but was not this done
| during the gigantic war-effort when
nations fought side by side as com
rades in mutual understanding? So,
likewise, it could be done in the effort
for peace.
However, each year since the war
ended we have watched WORLD
PEACE being literally smothered
under an avalanche of comparatively
insignificant business at hand" The
full responsibility for making the Uni
ted Nations Organization WORK has
from the start rested squarely upon
the United States as we are in the
drivers seat and hold the reins. Our
country is democracy-that means
the MAJORITY rules, but does it?
The people choose leaders who pledge
themselves to carry out the mandates
of the MAJORITY. Do the. people
want WAR or PEACE? The trouble
is, Mr.. Average Citizen is too busy
trying to make living and keep I'D
with the Joneses to properly keep tab
on his servant, George; George, there
fore, ofttimes does just what benefits
George and may the Devil take the
rest! Just who is it that benefits by
WAR? Answer this and the traitors
who are slowly but surely scraping the
UN organization will be found. Think
back to ancient history-the Romans,
stepped in luxury, apathy, self assur-
ance and MILITARISM; history has
itself several times since.
We cannot go on winning wars for
7Yer-the law of averages would see
o that-what then? We are living in

States unto spoiled child walking
boldly onto crowded street bliss
