This is no ordinary crisis like
the cigarette shortage. It far sur

has ever had. I write in deadly
seriousness, that we now have a
critical surplus. But what a sur

specie unknown for yea, these
many years. The phrase I have
postponed writing for heartfelt
reasons herein follows:

in the darkness that has settled
across these fair plains. For one
thing, the true liberals and out
standing Americans, meaning
democrats of course, can coin two
highly original slogans. One has
a certain piquancy and newness
that appeals to the ear. It is my
prediction that posters all over
the nation, will, in two years, be
asking, "Had Enough?"
One that can be used almost
immediately, and may in part
replace the use of opium and bar
biturates is, "Let's Wait 'Til '48."
Both these rallying cries can well
cause a trend that will once again
put this glorious country on its
feet, to use a portion of an ob
scure governor's address in the
misguided state of New York.

fun.
