We Can’t Afford To Fail When the vast stockpiles of scrap rubber ransacked out of attics and basements in the past fortnight, and during the next week, are finally totalled up, we shall have a better idea of how close we really are to gasoline rationing. We shall then know whether we have, as a nation, collected little over 100,000 tons, 200,000 tons as is currently indicated, or whether we have approximated the half million ton mark. There has been a great deal of debate and confusion over this issue and not a little of it has been due to the cross-talk among Washington officialdom itself. Officials who one day warned the public of the present critical rubber shortage, found the ground cut from under them the next day by colleagues who discounted the gravity of the situation. Despite all this misunderstanding, certain indisputable facts do stand out. Before Pearl Harbor, more than 90 per cent of our rubber came from the East Indies. These areas are now held by Japan. Synthetic rubber development is a wise step toward meeting future needs. But not today’s urgent demands. Home growing of rubber plants is also a plan for the future. Only the scrap rubber campaign is good for the present. California, with the highest motor vehicle registration of any state in the union, can least afford a breakdown in motor transportation. Second among states in area, first among states in volume of war contracts, yet possessing only a fraction of rail service given states east of the Rockies, our industry and agriculture—as well as railroads themselves—could not long carry on if the wheels of motor transportation should come to a stop. There is no debating or haggling concerning the need for conservation and cooperation to the limit to the scrape. urgent demands. Home growing of rubber plants is also a plan for the future.

Stand Steady! (From The Silver Lining by W. A. Peterson) Daniel Webster once was giving one of his stirring and eloquent addresses in a large hall on the second floor of an old building. The room was packed with people, crowded close together...many of them standing. As Webster talked the crowd began to sway in rhythm with his words. There was imminent danger that the vibration would cause the building to collapse. Sensing the danger, Webster stepped to the front of the platform, held up his hand and, in a voice of command, shouted: "Stand steady!" Stand steady! A nation swaying to the rhythm of war-hysteria needs that message today. We need to firmly plant both feet on the good earth and brace ourselves for the days ahead. Stand steady! Bad news, rumors, disappointments, fear will try to topple over our spirits. Against it all, we must stand as firm and steady as a giant oak in a gale. We must root deep in the faith of our fathers...faith in God and in each other. Stand steady! We must stand as steady as Joe Louis does when mowing down his opponents with blows that flash like lightning and crash like thunder. We must let our enemies know that they, too, have taken on a champion! Stand steady! As Atlas supports the world upon his shoulders, America must stand steady, supporting and upholding the world of freedom, justice and good will. Stand steady! We must face limitations and sacrifices with high courage. We must take them all, not lying down, but standing up, in the full stature of our manhood. Stand steady! Let us keep our feet on the ground-of-reality and our heads in the clouds-of-hope. While we meet, battle with, and subdue the problems of each day, let us hang on to the ideals of the American Way of Life with a firm resolve to win the peace as well as the war. Stand steady!
