Victory Is Complete From All Sections Of Country TODAY and TOMORROW (By Frank Parko.- Stockbridge) -EEB . ..... .

Out of the 100 who joined this movement the last report i* that everyone pot a job, 60 of th" jobs being permanent. 1 ot a report the other diy of a group -of peop'e living In a subur ban community who had combined their interests and energies t0 build bomr* and provide food for them selves and others of small mean?, and who by cooperative effort hav. pu'.Vd themselves up by their own bootstraps, it were*, lifting sever al families out of despondency into ran fort md reasonable security. I think that oort of folk is much irora interesting and usoful t0 tho world ut teifto than the ones who rry and grambie about their hard luck and hold wit their hands foi sevmebody ehe to feed and clothe them.
