"America must win this war Therefore I will work, I will save, I will sacrifice, I will endure; I will fight cheer-fully and do my utmost, as if the issue or the whole strug-gle depended on me alone." From Just a U. S. Soldier, Who died at Chateau Theiry In as much as this paper has said so much about proph-esy we deem it wise to say a further word to those who doubt the fulfillment of prophesy. In doing so we shall quote the bible and what it says about Adolf Hitler and leave it to the judgment of readers whether or not he has fulfilled the prophesies quoted. Turn to Daniel 11:21 and read to the end of the chapter. Verse 21 tells that there shall stand up a vile person to whom they shall not give the honors of the kingdom but shall come in peaceably and obtain the kingdom by fat-terie- s. Verse 22 tells how "With the arm of a flood that shall overflow before him, rising to power and overrunning his enemies before they are aware of danger. Verse 24 tella of the conquest of so many of the countries of Europe making them prey and taking spoil. Verse 25 te lis of the trouble with the countries to the South, France, Holland and Belgium Verse 26 tells of the cause of the fall of these countries. Verse 27 tells of his alliance with Mussolini. Verse 28 tells of his opposition to the church. Verse 29 tells of his war with Greece and Africa. Verse 40 speaks of Russia coming against him like a whirlwind. Verse 45 says, "Yet he shall come to his end and none shall help him." The chapter also tells how he is a man destined to shake the earth. Isaiah, nays in chapter 14 how he will lay the entire world in ruins and destroy the cities thereof. All these were made more than 2000 years be-fore Hitler was born. Society must find out the people who' can do the necessary work and then set them at it. The individual should be led to ask himself: Am I doing the best for society? Am I producing good things? Do 1 work with the thought that the consumer must be fed. We mnat get away from the idea of production for self alone; we must translate our interest into the common good. Thatis the higher incen-tive for good work and this is the incentive which brings.

UT1 9 V V f f r Plea For United War Effort Spurned Early in 1941, the Utah Retail Grocers Association, and other com-petitive interests, sponsored enactment of Senate Bill 44, which sen-tences chain stores to "slow death" by special taxes. 54,263 qualified Utah voters then signed a referendum petition placing the issue on the ballot at. the general election on November 3, 1942. j Since these actions occurred when the nation was still at peace, the chain stores welcomed the referendum vote as an opportunity for the people of Utah to determine whether or not they wanted chain stores in Utah. - However, after Pearl Harbor and the subsequent menacing sweep of Japanese aggression toward our shores, the Utah Chain Stores Assoc-iation, in the interest of a united support of the war effort, proposed to the Utah Retail Grocers Association a joint action aimed at postponing the referendum for the duration. Our Invitation Has Not Been Accepted Although over five weeks have passed, we have not been advised of any action upon our invitation, and Mr. Sherman P. Lloyd, in a report to the members of the Utah Retail Grocers Association, pub-lishe- d in the March issue of the "Intermountain Retailer", states that our proposal for unity is to be ignored. Mr. Lloyd writes: "The officers of the Association immediately met to con-sider what action should be taken to meet the chain store proposal . . . It soon became apparent that the wisest course to follow, for the present at least, was to maintain an attitude of silence and in the meantime build our own resources and our own facilities to the point where we will be able to follow through on any action which we start . . . When the Association begins this fight, we will use our own weapons, choose our own battle field and ask our own questions." S. B. 44 Will Be On The Ballot Next November 3rd It is clear that Mr. Lloyd prefers to continue his campaign to drive the chain stores out of Utah, and that we have failed in our effort to postpone this internal controversy until after the war. Therefore, S. B. 44 will appear on the ballot next November 3rd. However, we firmly believe with the Provo "Daily Herald" that ... "If we don't win the war, chain stores taxes and a lot of other things just won't matter." Therefore, regardless of any political activities by Mr. Lloyd and his group, the Utah Chain Stores Association and our members will continue to devote our maximum energies to the war effort. We will concentrate "our own resources and our own facilities" on the follow-ing program: Utah Chain Store Pledge . ! 1. We will work wholeheartedly in all state and federal war pro-- j jects in which our facilities can be of assistance, with particular atten- - tion to maintaining an aggressive effort in the sale of defense bonds and stamps. i 2. We will strive to the utmost to serve consumers and the home front by maintaining the flow of necessities needed for civilian welfare and morale. 3. We will keep retail prices at the lowest possible level and strive further to eliminate every unnecessary distribution cost. 4. We will cooperate with Utah agriculture and other producers in developing new and better markets for Utah products in Utah and other states. 5. We will furnish assistance and information to all persons in-terested in distribution and its problems. 6. We will assist the managers of the Utah Chain Stores in each community to continue intensively their cooperation with all civilian defense, civic and charitable activities.
