Now that the war is over for Germany,
many in this country may feel that it i also over for ut
...that we can now let down, and relax.
Nothing could please Japan more. Nothing would hew
so closely to her propaganda line.
We westerners understand this danger perhaps more
than others. We may remember Pearl Harbor more
clearly. And Bataan, Guadalcanal, Tarawa . . .
With the war over in Europe, the West will now bo
come the great "marshalling yards" for the final Big
Push against Japan. An enormous tide of troops and
war materials undoubtedly will pour through to our
seaports. Western railroads, housing, food supplies and
shipping will be strained with the full weight of the
nation's fighting effort
We say this because as far as the western railroads
are concerned many civilians may expect victory In
Europe to mean better transportation service here. Ac
tually, it may mean lest room for civilians on the trains.
When the full tide of war traffic comes, we shall call
on every resource to handle it We shall run the war
trains through.
First things come first until this war is over and it
Isn't over yet
