TAYLOR Executive Secretary Agricultural Council of California "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth, good will toward men!" In the midst of total war, with half the world rocking under the fearful blast of bombs and gunfire, and with millions of our men engaged in the fierce struggle, man's inhumanity to man almost seems to make a mockery of the traditional Christmas message. There will be many thoughtful, sensitive men and women here at home this Christmas who, as they exchange cheerful greetings with their friends and neighbors, and share in the Yuletide festivities, will experience qualms of conscience that they should enjoy security, home comforts and sumptuous holiday fare while their own sons and brothers, and untold millions of other men, fight in the bitter gold or in steaming jungles and defend the very principles we live by. At this Christmas season, however, every American who earnestly desires peace on earth, and goodwill toward men, needs to recognize that he, as an individual, has a very vital part to play in building a society that can live at peace and prevent a recurrence of conditions which brought on the present global conflict. The responsibility for this war does not rest alone on the swaggering men of Berlin and Tokyo who had a lust for world conquest and who plotted the enslavement of free people. In our own country, as well as other free nations, the handwriting on the wall was ignored until it was too late. The vast majority of the people of the world—good people, who would be quick to show their sympathy and concern if a next-door neighbor were in difficulty—were too busy with their own affairs to pay much attention to the broader responsibilities of good citizenship. It is generally accepted that the United States, because of our tremendous influence as a world power, and our inherent desire for peace and fair play in international relations, must play an important part in the organization and direction of any League of Nations World Court or other PRINTING THAT'S A CREDIT TO YOU The printed matter that goes out of your offices reflects your standards.

Street Anaheim PAINTING CONTRACTOR— There will be many thoughtful, sensitive men and women here at home this Christmas who, as they exchange cheerful greetings with their friends and neighbors, and share in the Yuletide festivities, will experience qualms of conscience that they should enjoy security, home comforts and sumptuous holiday fare while their own sons and brothers, and untold millions of other men, fight in the bitter cold or in steaming jungles for their very survival. The Christmas season, in a sense, heightens the tragedy of war, with all its brutality and its agony of suffering, but actually if there were no Christmas the outlook for our world would be one of hopeless futility. If there were not millions of men and women in the world who still hold fast to their belief in right, rather than might; who still believe in the dignity of man, in simple principles of justice, truth and decency, in freedom of worship, freedom of belief and freedom of expression — then our world already would have succumbed to Axis tyranny and despotism, and the precepts of both Christianity and Democracy would have been blotted out for generations to come. War, and the killing and destruction which are the instruments of war, would make the Christmas season seem a shallow observance, indeed, except that we know that from the beginning of time men have died that other men might live as their consciences dictate, and that principles which are more sacred than life might endure. The distinction which separates our American way of life from the totalitarian system which we are fighting is not simply a political difference. Imperfect as our Democracy may be, it represents the closest approach any people ever have made to a recognition of fundamental Christian principles in their form of government and in their consideration of the rights of others. To the great majority of the American people, more perhaps than any other people on the face of the earth, war is utterly abhorrent. There is only one thing more abhorrent—and that would be a denial of our faith in our God and country, and refusal to support quick to show their sympathy and concern if a next-door neighbor were in difficulty—a were too busy with their own affairs to pay much attention to the broader responsibilities of good citizenship. It is generally accepted that the United States, because of our tremendous influence as a world power, and our inherent desire for peace and fair play in international relations, must play an important part in the organization and direction of any League of Nations, World Court or other world order, if such an organization is to have any real hope of maintaining "peace on earth." That is undoubtedly true, but if we are to set a pattern for world peace and security, certainly we must begin by paying stricter attention to our responsibilities as citizens of the United States—by seeking to be unselfish in our own approach to government problems, and by demanding a high order of integrity and devotion to the common good from our chosen representatives. If this nation had been more interested in peace than profits a few years back, we would not have permitted our government to continue to sanction the shipment of scrap iron to Japan; we would not have permitted our country to be torn by bitter class warfare and labor disputes which encouraged our enemies and divided our own people; we would not have been so busy chasing dollars as to be blind to what was going on both at home and abroad. The finest gift we could give each other—and the world around us—this Christmas would be a consecration of ourselves to the Christ for which Christmas stands. And that is our only hope of a lasting word peace when this war has been won. BREAD GOES FAR FOR ARMY CHEF In an Army mess hall, all leftover bread, which is kept to a minimum, is used in making French toast, croutons for soup, bread dressing, meat loaf, bread pudding, and numerous other dishes, it was announced today at the Ninth Service Command Quartermaster office, Fort Douglas, Utah.

Those Boys Need You BUY WAR BONDS! To the great majority of the American people, more perhaps than any other people on the face of the earth, war is utterly abhorrent. There is only one thing more abhorrent—and that would be a denial of our faith in our God and country, and refusal to support Give 'em a break during the holidays! Thousands of men and women in service will take a furlough trip home for Christmas. For many of them it will be the last time they will be with their families for an indefinite period of time. Of course, we want to provide them with space on our trains for comfortable trips to and from their homes. To do this—with our limited passenger equipment and unprecedented volume of civilian travel—we must again ask your cooperation and friendly understanding. As you can adjust your going and coming with more latitude than men and women in service—please—postpone your train trip until after the holiday period to enable us to provide accommodations for our soldiers, sailors and marines on Christmas furloughs. SANTA FE SYSTEM LINES "ALONG THE ROUTE TO TOKYO" Santa Fe THURSDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1944 LAND BOOM PERILED RURAL AMERICA By Claude R. Wickard Secretary of Agriculture History is threatening to repeat itself in the farm land market. Another farm land "Boom," closely paralleling the one that ended so disastrously after the last war, is building up in this country. Both the price of farm land and the number of farm sales in many areas have been rising at about the same rate as in the last war. If this trend continues, rural America had better watch out. One encouraging sign is that actual prices haven't yet reached the high level of 1919-20. But still we can't say now how much higher these prices are likely to go because, in the World War I period, the high point in the land market was not reached until more than a year after the fighting stopped. It would be sad indeed if the nation should witness another seige of farm land foreclosures, bankruptcies, and forced sales such as hundreds of thousands of rural families experienced after the bottom fell out of the land boom that accompanied the World War I period. For 13 hazardous years after 1920, land prices were on the down hill trail. And that statistical fact doesn't begin to tell the full story of human tragedy and misery. Because when a wave of bankruptcies hits a community, everybody suffers — lender and borrower, business and professional people alike. It will be particularly unfair for returning veterans, who want to buy land, if they have to compete in an unfair land market. For them, or farmers either, for that matter, to go heavily in debt on land prices bid up far beyond longtime earning capacity is an invitation to disaster. So my advice is—don't buy land at inflated prices. Put your wartime income into sound investments, such as war bonds, so that you can benefit from that money in the years ahead. RECLAIMING PROGRAM SAVES TAX MONEY Army ordnance annually saves millions of dollars by reclaiming thousands of tons of damaged battle equipment. Ninth Service Command Ordnance officer announced today at Fort Douglas, Utah. SELF-PITY? By JAMES CAGNEY Too many Americans are inclined to self-pity. Too many of us are moaning over the lack of gasoline, or butter, or shoes, or fat, thick steaks. In Europe and in the Pacific there are other Americans who have no time for self-pity. These boys in all branches of SELF-PITY? By JAMES CAGNEY Too many Americans are inclined to self-pity. Too many of us are moaning over the lack of gasoline, or butter, or shoes, or fat, thick steaks. In Europe and in the Pacific there are other Americans who have no time for self-pity. These boys, in all branches of service, are too busy fighting for you and me. On my visits to the front-line hospitals in England, Scotland and Wales, I have seen exactly how valuable your help can be. The money you invest in War Bonds goes to build and maintain these hospitals—to pay for equipment, medicine—personnel—and to bring a fair chance at life back to the wounded men. Let us forget self-pity and dig down very deep for the men who are giving everything for us. We can't expect them to fight the war and pay for it, too.
