Japanese too busy in Chicrd!
N 1941, the Japanese had been fighting Chiha f cir'five years Every,
one agreed they couldn't risk a war with Uncle Sam. The Japs en-1
couraged this complacency. They even sent ''Peace Emissaries" to
Washington! Then, when we were thoroughly convinced they, wouldn't
fight us, they struck with almost overwhelming force!
These same treacherous Japanese spent years convincing us tfifey
were poor pilots. Young Japanese students purposely made bad prog
ress at American flying schools to mislead us into believing they
didn't have what it takes to make good pilots. Tney deliberately led
us into believing we could "polish off the Jap fleet any weekend," that
the Japanese were inferior sailors, poor marksmen, and that their war
ships and airplanes were obsolete and inferior. ,'
TODAY, the Japs would like yoo to believe they can't strike m
here on the West Coaft. They want us to 'Met down," to take air raid
precautions as a joke ... to believe that "it can't happen here."
The plain truth is that it not only CAN happen here, hut, at
our victories in the Pacific increase, our chances of being attacked
actually become greater. That's why you should help man the impor
tant military installations of the Aircraft Warning Service. Sign up
