World War No. 2 has forced an almost complete change in the national economy of the United States and only under such tremendous pressure could our people be led to accept the many sacrifices that daily are coming to the front. Not until Hitler made his great mistake of turning on Stalin did it become apparent to this nation that all-out aid to the democracies was something that would affect the lives of every one of us and that as time goes on we will have to dig deeper and work harder, at the same time surrendering more and more of the comforts of life in order to bring victory to the allied arms.
