4 Heppner Gazette Times, December 20, 1945
EDITORIAL. , .
The entire staff of the Gazette Times joins in
extending greetings of the season to our many
readers and in wishing for one and all not only a
bountiful season but the most joyous Christmas
in years.
i What a Christmas this could be if the people
of the world really believed in and followed the
precepts set down by the Man of Galilee whose
birth is commemorated each year on the 25th of
December. Selfish ambitions and strife between
nations would give place to peace on earth, good
will towards all men, and in place of fear of the
atomic bomb there would be mutual happiness
from its development.
It may follow that the harnessing of atomic
energy will prove a boon to humanity, but with
nations still jockeying for the key position in
world power and our American labor situation
what it is, it is difficult to face the future without
a few qualms.
Our fighting men knew what they were fight
ing for while the war was on. Now that many of
them have returned to civilian life they are not
sure what it was all about. Were they fighting to
give Russia all she purportedly is asking for since
peace came? Were they going through the tortures
of hell at $50 a month to make higher pay and
shorter hours secure for those who stayed home
and received the highest pay known to history?
They are wondering about these and many other
" things that have occurred on the home front dur
ing their absence. Perhaps they can do something
about it ere another Christmas comes and help
bring back some of the ideals they were fighting
for.
In the meantime let us do what we can to give
the veterans a bit of the old-time Christmas they
dreamed about when too far away from home to
think of getting there. Just give them their place
in the family circle or social group. That's what
they most desire.
Christmas Greetings
