Time To Enlist
For Peace!

For thousands of years men
- and women - have enlisted
for war. Through war they
have sought the things they
priced most-possessionS, free
dom, security. And war has
grown constantly more de-
manding, more destructive,
more disappointing in its fail
ure to win what its supporters
sought.
Now war has come to its full
flower. Even the testing OF
modern nuclear weapons takes
it's toll, according to the gene
ticists, in the damaged lives of
children to unnumbered gen.
erations. War itself, if it comes,
threatens to destroy civillza-
ton as we know it, poison vast
areas Of the earth, and perhaps
make the world itself unin-
habitable.
How muCh more 90 we
need to know that war will not
work.,
It is time to enlist for peace,
and to work as though our
lives depend on it - as in
fact they may. Do these things
today:
Write the President urging
the immediate cessation of
testing of nuclear weapons.
Write to the address below
for more information on how
to become q worker for peace.

owned Cadillacs.

anyway. On the other hand, when
