Recently, a letter came to my desk, in which the writer expressed fear that many of those now working and planning for a better post war world, are selfishly thinking in terms of better equipment for farms and factories, time saving devices and costly furnishings for homes and offices, and greater facilities for luxurious travel and social pleasures. \ This fear is, I feel sure, quite unfounded. Of course every forward movement has its coterie of selfishly greedy souls, whose eyes are avidly fixed upon the main chance; but the vast majority of world leaders, thinkers and earnest toilers, are aware that, “‘a new age is coming to birth.”” They are alive to its implications, its just demands and its golden opportunities for service. They have caught the vision of a world made new; not mystical and far away, but here and now. The rainbow of hope encircles the earth today; it lights the far horizons and shines against the darkest clouds.

Better schools are in demand, when the tasks of war ave ended—better play grounds and recreational centers, better roads and public buildings. The ancient Athenians pledged themselves to transmit to their decendants a beteer city ehan ehey had inherited from their worthy forebears, and from the time when our prehistoric ancestors set about to improve conditions in a world which was not entirely to their liking, men and women have desired for their children better living conditions and better educational advantages than they, themselves were ever privileged to enjoy. Above all, the peoples. of the present day world desire a. world in which the horrors and indecencies of war no longer, exist. A word of peace in which little children are not afraid and wherein the flower of youth is not asked to sacrifice hopes and plans—even life itself inorder to rectify the mistakes of older generations and the failures of all past centuries to rise above human stupidities and the gross sins of commission and omission. The fashioning of a better world—a better home for all humanity, is the task of our present generations. The dream of the ages leads on. Peace on earth with good will among men, may become an accomplished reality. We can create a better world, if we have the vision and the will to do. —A. Merriam Conner. NAVAL SCHOOL FOR SAN FRANCISCO BAY ““Do the American people think that the Pacific Ocean is going to'be important to the future of the United States? They cereainly do. The Navy thought so when it aried, failed to get the congress to fortify Guam. ‘The Navy now wants to hold naval and air bases in the Pacific necessary to protect our security. The Post agrees with the Navy and enthusiastically supports a policy for maintenance of peace in the Pacific by strong naval and air force at strategic points. “The Navy plans a post war expansion in personnel and facilities at Annapolis. “The Post feels strongly that such a major expansion of educational facilities should be on the shores of the Pacific Ocean. “The great port of San Francisco is the natural gateway to and from the Pacific. It is the great railroad terminal of the Pacific Coast. It has a vast harbor and every kind of shipping facility.

Food ration book No. 5 and a new gasoline A book in December. Price Administrator Bowles says both books will but set up to last from _10 to 15 months, but adds: ‘“We hope that book 5 will be the last in the series of war time ration books, and that there will be plenty of stamps we won t have to use’’——and his hopeful forecast goes also for the new gas book. Well, Mr. Bowles, a whale of alot of people have gotten sore at your outfit these tough war years—and with reason. The administration of rationing couldn't be easy; but there's been too much waste, public inconvenience and downright hardship, caused by incompetence and stupidity to be excused by most lenient critics. Yet for that cheerful thought that the end of rationing may be actually in sight, most Americans, who can get plenty mad but aren’t of a nature to hold grudges, probably will thank you—and even reciprocate with the hope that you have a long life and die in peace.—Contributed.
