Ten Reasons Why We Should Purchase
War Bonds Now And In The Future
The War Bonds and Stamps you buy today will not only
continue our life of liberty, but make a difference in the
lives of future generations. Viewed in the light of the
present war, in which America finds herself fighting for
the steadfast principles and untrammeled way of life be
queathed to us from the birth of this nation it is a
struggle of vital import in which every American is con
cerned. Viewed in the light of man’s past history and
generations to come, it is a struggle in which the world is
concerned; for America has been delegated a special role
to play in the progress of humanity. Upon how well Am
erica can defend what she has learned of freedom, justice
and vision, depends the future progress of the world.
In the inevitable adjustment that must follow this war,
H. G. Wells has pointed out in his ‘History of the World’
that we will be saved from many cruel delusions and mis
takes if we bear in mind that “human races do not branch
out like trees with branches that never come togeher
again—but remingle at any opportunity. Men make love
and tribes make war.”
But wars end and their leaders, disgusted with the
cruelty and horror of war, renounce it and for a time
peace comes in the troubled history of the world. It is for
these brief interludes that man pours out his life blood
in suffering and anguish. To prolong them, to grasp and
hold them firmly, is the vision for which our American
heroes are giving their lives today and toward which
your purchase of War Bonds and Stamps will aid them.
Wells has told us that ‘‘only some strong mutual in
terest can justify a close linking of peoples of dissimilar
languages and faith.” That mutual interest, it is hoped,
will be found after this war in the simple commandment
“Thou shalt not kill.” The desire of motherhood to protect
and defend her offspring will supply the universal langu
age upon which the world can start to build.
“The greater power and range of human activities has
made war disporportionately destructive and disorganiz
ing, and even a clumsy way of settling issues between gov
ernments. Before a world unity can be put into effect,
however, it is necessary that the common mind of the hu
man race should be possessed of the idea of human unity
and that the idea of mankind as one family should be a
matter of universal instruction and understanding.
“No one can presume to guess what the harvest of this
war will be, for already the idea of human brotherhood
struggles to possess the human soul.” Before this can be
realized, perhaps other generations will have to live
through war and waste before sheer misery will find a
better way. This is what America is fighting for— this is
what your purchase of War Bonds and Stamps will Jhelp
to bring about.
In leadership toward ‘a better way’ the United States
is “half-way between a European State and a United States
of the world.”
The burning question, Wells tells us; is not why the
World War was begun, but why the World War was not
anticipated and prevented. “Physical science gives power
over steel, over distance, over disease; whether that pow
er is used for good or ill depends upon the moral and poli
tical intelligence of the world. The distinction maintain
ed in civilized warfare between civilian and combatant
population has disappeared. The sufferings and deaths of
scores of thousands of men, women and children are in
volved today.” From such seeds as these a real force for
world unity and world peace grows.
Man is still only adolescent, but when we look at world
history as one process we see the steadfast upward strug
gle of life toward which America points the way, for
which American youths are giving their lives, and which
your dollars invested in War Bonds and Stamps, will help
to bring about.

power program at the last special
session of the state legislature.
Full discussion of its ramifications,
including the creation of a vast
political machine, would have giv
en voters too much information on
the subject, thereby depriving Mr.
Osborn of a No. 1 campaign "issue”
to be pulled from his political bag
of tricks.
• • •
With the release of ex-Gov. Bob
Jones’ platform this week-end. the
Jones forces, according to E. T.
(Happy) Houston, state campaign
manager, are "starting to work in
earnest.”
Some 60 business, professional.
f:>r m and labor leaders assembled
in Phoenix last Monday night to
pledge their aid to the Jones can
didacy. Among those present were
a number of outstanding leaders in
Osborn s 1940 campaign organiza
tion.
Jones headquarters were opened
at midweek in the Fox Theatre
building in Phoenix.
With additional candidates enter
ing the race for the state’s two
congressional seata, political ob
servers are of the opinion the 1942
derby is growing more uncertain
day by day. ... So far, Atty.
Gen. Joe Conway and State Audi
tor Ana Frohmiller are the most
fortunate office-holders In view of
the fact neither has heard a rum
or of serious opposition. It also is
likely Amos A. Betts, State Cor
poration Commission chairman, will
be renominated without serious op
position.

Bob Coates Gets
Highest Grades
In His Company
Bob Coates was a Rood student
in Coolidge high school and is now
a good student in Uncle Sam’s
Navy as his parents Mr. and Mrs.
Phil Coates learned this week.
"Well, well,” writes the exuberant
sailor: "I sure am happy tonight.
Don’t mind me if 1 pat myself on
1 the bark —for listen; I made the
; highest average grade in , our
I whole company on our classifica
tion tests.”
Bob is attending a naval training
school in San Diego and his
grades were: average 89. which
was three points above the next
highest. His individual scores
were: I. Q. test. 97: mechanical
aptitude. 78: arithmetic, 100;
English, 86; spelling, 100. and
radio aptitude. 72. These grades
entitle Coates to a choice of
schools and he has selected, as
first, on the fire control school.
"That Is the one that teaches
you to sight the big gunH on a
ship. It’s about the best one. If
you qualify —and I do. If I go to It
I will go for about l« weeks to
the school here In San Diego, so
that won’t be bad. 1 put down, as
second choice, the electrical ordn
ance school. There they teach
about taking care of the big guns
and I’m sure I can make it. even
if I don’t the first one. If I go to
the first school I’ll get a second
class rating when I graduate . . .
Well, I'll quit patting myself on
the back now. before I break my
arm’”
*We have Inspection tomorrow,
so I had to wash all my whites
yesterday. I’m getting to be quite
a scrubwoman. Well, I’ve got to
get up at 5:00 In the morning, so
better go to bed and get some
sleep."
