“because it alone can carry the pledges of Christmas good will to those
who are bearing for us the real burdens of the world-war, both in our own
army and navy and in the nations upon whose territory the issues of the
world-war are being fought out.” [For context, the US population in 1920
was 106,021,568. (https://www.census.gov/data/tables/time-series/
