Continuing its wartime policy, the parent-teacher organization concentrates on holding the line for the benefit of the nation's youth. During the war, losses in the arts and education, human energies and progress are beyond comprehension and the debt cannot be repaid in a few short months or years, but "so long as we the people' stand by our commitments in the preamble of the charter, peace must prevail, and it is imperative that every American keep alert in the progress of peace," says Mrs. Leroy H. Baily of Los in a recently published statement.
Mrs. W. E. Leroy of San Diego, chairman of conservation and thrift, has issued a call to all parent-eacher people to hold fast against inflation, and states "there is too much work to be done in this war-torn world to waste time and people on another deprssion."
