1 Treaehery under the protection of negotiation has
brought a sudden realization that wre are at war. Noth-
ing will deter us iu seeking destruction of such forces
that work under a system of lies and deceit.
We are a people dedicated to a democratic way of
,-ors. We have sought a peaceful solution to the world’s
problems. United, we promise full avengement of ag-
gression and treaehery and reaffirm our intention to
preserve for America and mankind the morale and
freedom inherent in our democracy.
This is no time for hand-wringing. Hand-wringing
won't w in the w ar. Talk won t win it. Keeping our ears
glued to the radio won't win it. We will have to get
tough to win this war. We will have to work hard--
harder than ever before- longer hours, more days.
This must be the resolution of every freedom lov-
ing man and woman in America. This w'ar is a conflict
of production. The production of this country is lim-
ited only by the will of our people.
The above was copied from a Neiman-Marcus ad in
