We all take the attftvde that whatever service we may be called upon to render will be for oar own interest for the community in which we live •hd all of our fellow men in tbia great country of ours and not just for the federal government and Undo Sam. I »m very glad that P, D. R. had the ^otuaigfct and the leadership to at least start expanding our navy in spite of naaty partisan opposition. One of our P.J.C. boys whom the girls knew was killed in Pearl Harfcor action. Another frien^ la in Iceland and others in the navy aad marines. Lottie and I visited the ill-fated battleship "Arisons" aome three years ago and naturally have been wondertag if some of the otfleara and mea that we met then lost their Uvea with this great ship. We hava viaited at different times four of our battleshipe and two eruisers. It i» comforting to know that we have a goodly number of theaa, great ships and a lot of very effective submarines and destroyers. It is also comforting to know that our factories §re turning out more than 125 big two- and four-motored bombing planes every week in addition to at least 300 other war planes. I am not at all concerned over our safety here in California but we must remember that if California fell into the hands of the Japs the rest of the country would be in far greater danger of disastrous bombing raids than we are now from raids by planes from Jap airplane carriers. Many of our community activities like the Tournament of Roses, the Rose Bowl football game, our brilliant Christmas tree lanes and race courses have been cancelled for the duration The Tournament of Roses has been coverted into a Tournament of Victory with most of our people in Pasadena dedicating themeslves and all of their energies to do the utmost to win this war. On the afternoon of the 24th, one of our bombers sank a Jap sub within Ave miles from our coast. Just how far away from Paaa&na I do not know. It seems that a lot of spectators on the shore saw the sub attack one of our freighters and heard the gunfire. Within ten minutes of the attack one of our bombers appeared. The sub made an emergency dive. The plane dropped a bomb and the sub came to the surface again and took two direct hits from our bomber.
