With the United States at war with the powerful axis nations, every true American citi zen is anxious to do his part in the conduct of the war. Americans are not only working as individuals, but they are cooperating with their neighbors in preparing for any eventuality that may beset, this country. Theie cooperating Americans are determin ed that this country shall not merely act in de fense, but shall carry the war to the enemy which will be necessary before victory can be achieved. They know that sacrifices will be re quired of them before the forces of the aggres sors are squelched. The dastardly attack o f Japan upon pos sessions of the United States in the Pacific ocean united the American people probably more quickly than anything else could have done. If the Japanese had attacked English possessions or Russia, allies of the United States, the people of this country would have been divided on a question of actually going to war in the struggle between the dictators and the democracies, but there is not any division now, except that caused by the fifth columnists and a few American trai tors. Give Them Jobs! Salem Capital Press When a fifth columnist Is found sabotaging defense, we pull no punches In disposing of him. But when we sabotage defense production ourselves, few voices are raised In protest. How are we sabotaging defense? By refusing Jobs In defense Industries to workers because of their color, creed or national ori gin. By refusing even to train these men for Jobs. This senseless dl1 crimination against Americans Is not very bright In a demo cratic America faced with the greatest peril In Its history. It Is not only not bright; It Isn't the American Way. Today America needs all of Its manpower. It needs the skill and talents and the democratic faith of all of its people, whether their names be Schmidt or Smith, Caruso or Cohen. It takes more than a presidential order to stop discrimination in defense Industries against negroes, against those o f German or Italian origin, against Jews. We have found that out. What It takes Is 132,000,000 Americans who know that America must be de fended by all and for all or It Is not going to be saved by any of us. I f we say to anyone; "W e don't need your brain and your hands to make our machines,” we hit America In two places where It hurts. First, we cut production of material essential to beat the enemy. Second, we divide and alienate Americans In Just the way that Hitler has boasted he would tear us apart and make us weak. Every time we discriminate against a fellow American, Hitler can laugh and say; “ I told you so.” We are engaged In a titanic struggle to preserve democracy. We can’t struggle for our life and engage In suicidal activity at the same time. We have seen yon come back again and again and we want row to know we appreciate it We hope during the coming year we will come to know yon better and aerve yon more. Merry Christmas to all of yon!

That certinly was an accomplishment on the part of the instructors. Must of been around a hundred children taken part. Mast every home in Cow Hollow has its little dramma of its own. The beautifully decorated Xmas tgfe sets in the corner and little fingers Just can’t leave it alone Every once In a while a party is accidentally knocked o ff to crash on the floor. Mother screams and Dad swears, •Next year the Christmas tree wont be put up till the evening of the 24th.” T\vas the same last year and the year before and likely will be next year too. Our hart goes out to the poor printer who has to print this. Last week found some fine building stone for to put a foundation under the house, large and square and all about ten inches thick. And plenty heavy too. W ell thos“ big fat rock got to crowding one another and one time I found m.y fingure (or the remains of It) between a couple of them. Well there will be no more rock hauled for a while and what writeing with a crushed fingure be low the pencil on my wright hand. Back to the printer. We hope his eyes are good and his emagination perfect. Oh well we have worys of our own and that is his now. The total “ black-out” Sunday was well observed in Cow Hollow. When the last minut had expired Russle Howell’s yard light was seen to give the all clear signal. An airplane made a large circle over Sunset Val ley during the black-out. Suppose It was a U. S. Bommer to see that all obeyed. Evidently they trust us in Cow Hollow or else couldent find us.
