I3 THICSASSANION Nothing is important to us now but victory! 'lille only decision to make about anything is, lVill it help to win the war? The war is everything, nothing else counts! Churchill, lCngland's great leader said, Victory at all costs-in spite of all terror, victory howeyer hard and long the road may be, for without victory, there is no survival. XVe salute the sterling courage, and unfaltt-ring endurance of those beleaguered nations that, plundered and ravaged, so valiantly have endured hardship and suffering that beggar our imagination. lVe will strive to emulate the will to fight and Work with all possible strength toward one ccmmon aim so that we shall emerge from the struggle truly l'nited Nations. After twenty years and two wars we are back where we were before VVilson's proposed military alliance. lfach generation has always found need to defend its heritage, every battle fought had to be fought anew. 'lio avoid this disastrous con- tingency our aim is to win a peace that will be maintained. The heads of governments are already tentatively outlining toward this goal. An alliance of all nations would be formed toward a common good. The technique of the plan must be capable of application irrespective of the type or principle of government of the member states. lnternational trade laws would be drawn and an international stabilization fund established. This will be the supreme task confronting statesmen for many years to come. There will be many divergent interests among the l'nited Nations, and some enduring structure must be built from chaos, or even the most optimistic will suffer the same disillusionment that followed the last war. But visions alone will not win a war, nor dreams defeat the enemy. YVe must, if need be, use the last of our strength and resources to crush the devastating monster that assails us. There is just one task for each and every one of us-to win the war quickly and decisively. XVe know that when peace comes. a new and better world will be born. Let us always pray that with it may come a deeper understanding of our fellow man, a friendly relationship cemented by the people, and for the people, so that wars shall cease to exist. and the peace won shall be everlasting.
