While our wishes father the thoughts that the war is rapidly nearing an end, the facts do not support our fond hopes and strong wishes. While we are winning on all fronts, it is at terrible costs and a long way yet to go to Berlin and Tokyo. We are slowly gaining a wide battle front and bases for supplies in Normandy but the power of the Germans is far from broken. Step by step we advance in Italy but there are big battles ahead before the Italian Peninsula is taken. Our pride in our Pacific forces is great and daily progress is made, but great bases must be es tablished and long distances of ocean must be over- come before we engage the Nippons in the last final struggle in Asia. Our greatest hopes rest on the continued progress of the Russians. While the American and British forces are scattered on many fronts, the Russian armies are concentrating on one great push toward Prussia and Berlin. Our prayers should be for the destruction of the Prussian war lords, where war has been an occu pation for centuries. Once they are eliminated the causes of the last two wars will be removed and such men as Hitler will not be allowed to rise again, as the tool and leader of this mightiest war organization in all history. If we can destroy these land lords and barons and war lords and schooled generals in their home nests of cruelty and mechanical science and perfidy toward all human civilization, then the world may rest more securely from their assaults, perhaps for a thousand years, or a similar period in which they have provoked the earth. May the Lord bless Russia if she can bring Prussia to these depths, and in reward may we deal kindly with Russia when the victory is won.
