Great dates of old, such as --476, 1066,
1215, 1492, 1611, 1620 and 177.6 are
noted'for but one big event; but it is
hard to imagine 1945 being designnat
ed so °narr`ow'ly. Instead, we ;have a
whole galaxy of events,to remember,
and all *Withinthe scope of 141 days.
What thankfulness, too, can we and
,future generations express .for the
working out of all or most of these
eight events.
How fortunate that the ' gigantic

eulogy. And only two votes against
it at Washington! Suppose it does
leave to be solved in future the trou-

Greater prodiietivity means more

worker is paid $1 an hour and pro-
,duces two d items :the snit gator) !east'
is 50 cents each. If his output is in=
creased to four items per hoilr,- the .
urit'cost is 25 ;cents and the firm can •
afford to'`raise his' wages or lower its

the long tenon record in our economy..
Only in' this way can the real income
