Our part in the war is, in itself, a sort of an expression of thanks — a war in which we are showing our deep appreciation for the things we have in America by fighting to pre serve those things. We in America have more to be thankful for than any other nation in the world. And we are indeed for tunate that we have the resources, the manpower and the leadership to assure us that, even though niany of us will suffer personal losses, our nation as a whole will come out of the war with our freedom strength ened and our way of life-insured for many years to come. “Be ye thankful” is the meaning of you on this dellicate subject.

There is still plenty available in South America, but our country's desperate heed for shipping space has limited the supply from the countries. Because of adequate stock on hand, however, that difficulty has not yet resulted in a major curtailment of chewing gun manufacture. But the talk about it, plus talk about cur tailment resulting from the shortage of sugar, has reached the public— and the next logical step is hoard ing. Yes, even chewing gum is being hoarded and that has meant it has disappeared more quickly than it calendar, but its author, Senator > Pepper, of Florida, acknowledged' that it was dead for this session. Decrying the senate's action in re jecting a cloture motion, Pepper filed a proposal to change the rules so that a majority of the senate could force a vote on any bill Pepper as serted the senate had established a precedent by which a minority could prevent the consideration of any bill against which it was prepared to fili buster.
