Victory
in

is
here

the
war
is
only
partly
over.
After
more
than
five
years,
we
have
the
victory
over
Germany.
Now
it
is
to
pursue
the
full
victory
over
the
Axis
by
disposing
of
Japan
as
completely
as
we
have
of
Germany.
The
war
in
Europe
is
over
but
we
must
stUl
fight
and
work
on.
There
can
be
no
letting

us
more

into
the

conflict.!
We
should
not
forget
that
as
we
observe
and
reflect
on
this
great
day.
We
have
good
reason
to
express
our
gratification

even
our
exultation.
We

reason
to
solemnly
resolve
to
bend
