To All Goodyearites: This Christmas season approaches with wars on the various righting fronts moving in the direction of a victorious conclusion for the United Nations. Although many of our loved ones have been sacrificed, we are looking forward to the early return home of the more than 23,000 men of Goodyear who are fighting to protect the future safety and happiness of our families. We hope that before another Christmas rolls around we will be firmly established in worldwide peace and goodwill. Sincerely,
' President.
To My Fellow Aircrafters: It seems hardly possible that another Christmas is upon us.Iwould like to say "Merry Christmas" to each of you and yet somehow Ifeel that the word "Merry" is out of tune. A year ago we had good reason to believe that the war in Europe would be over by Christmas of 1944. But right now we are having the toughest time since we have been in the war. Our casualties are mount- ing daily by the thousands. There is scarcely a home that has not been touched either by the loss or injury of some close relative or friend. The tragedy of the situation is that it will probably— get worse before it gets better. We are making progress, but slowly and at a terrific price. The Japanese situation in the Far East is—quite similar. It is evident that we have a long, hard row ahead of us much harder and longer than we have realized up until now. We are not to be blamed for our optimism. Even the experts guessed wrong. Production of war neces- sities was reduced, and now we find ourselves confronted by shortages of very important and necessary things to win the war. With these thoughts in mind, the best Ican say to you is "Season's Greetings" and ask that you take another hitch in your belt, so that as individuals,and as a company, A»'e may do all we can to end the war as quickly as possible. Sincerely,
Vice President. z^^^to- TbAbT"3B IHl /^.- vJb r^-n^~i C " Ifip.ij lr^^v = AIRCRAFT EDITION = ~ IN AIR Ml AMERICA FIRST THE " Vol. 4 AKRON, OHIO, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1944 No. 51 $3,265 To Suggestion Winners Tomorrow Everything Ready For Big Christmas Party GRAND TIME Four Finalists Chosen In SURPRISE IS FOR'KIDDIES' "Production Race PLANNED FOR OF GOODYEAR Queen" 166 WORKERS Gymnasium Doors Open At Winner Will Be HERE ARE TH LUCKY FOUR 6 O'clock In Morning; Identity Of Those To Be Elaborate Program Announced On Receiving End Will Be Known Thursday the children of Goodyear Dec. 29 and Goodyear Aircraft that Aircraft will play Santa Claus I'll be in the gym next Friday by passing out checks tomorrow, morning, December22, promptly Finalists from each of Good- totaling $3,265, to employes year plants the who at 6 o'clock, and that Pll stay Aircraft's in turned in worthwhile sugges- until 6 o'clock in the evening," "Production Queen" contest tions in December.
