A Heppner Gazette Times, November EDITORIAL . n 1944 Let's Get It Over With Now that the voters of these United States have decided who shall carry on the affairs of govern ment at least for the next four years, let's for get the recent differences and get down to the real essential piece of business that of winning the war in the shortest possible time. If our commander-in-chief has some tricks up his sleeve which could not be uncovered prior to election, it is up to him to trot them out. He knows the people are with him, not only those who voted for him but those who opposed him most strenuously. All have one thing in mind end the war and win the peace. It is immaterial to the general run of Am ericans who does the job so long as it is done. Contrary to the belief of a considerable segment of American voters, the war will not' be over with . in a short time. Our ground forces and airmen are confronted with another enemy which will have a strong tendency1 to lengthen' the conflict. Ha ! Germany fallen early in the fall ,it would have been a different story but with winter al ready setting in along many fronts it is doubtful if the nazis can be conquered short of mid-summer 1945. That means that heavier concentration of allied power in the Pacific wi.i be delayed, and every delay means that many more Japs will have to be rooted out., Better be prepared to buy heav ily of the next bond issue. 0 Education Our Bulwark This is National Education week and it is worth while to pause and give consideration to what edu cation has already done and the part it will play in the post-war period. In a booklet published by the National Education, association, "Education for New Tasks", is found the general theme under hat title. It says: "Many new tasks confront us today. Our immediate task is to help bring the war to an early and a victorious end. In this effort the schools are playing a vital role. At the same time they are laying the. foundations for the years of peace to come. They are preparing the children and young people for the new tasks which con front our country making postwar readjustments, ing intergroup relationships, assuring justice to minority groups, adapting.our life to the new tech maintaining economic security at home, improv nolosy, iniproving community life, doing our share to build an enduring peace. Only a people of in telligence, character, goodwill and earnestness can meet these issues with success." mnw ajxim jrsrw vrw . u m. . , j ' j,4T . r.r.j sir:' .w wT- ttv wa- a t s r j n i i m I f 1 sr.
